This app ("we", "our", or "us") values your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how information is collected and used when you use Cuts AI.

How We Use Your Information

Photos

• You may upload photos to generate AI-powered image edits and transformations. These photos may include images of people.
• Photos are sent to fal.ai and the AI model provider that fal.ai uses on our behalf (listed in the Third-Party Services section below), solely to generate the hairstyle preview you requested. No other processing is performed on your photos.
• Photos pass through our backend on Google Cloud (Firebase Cloud Functions) only to forward them to fal.ai. The backend does not store or log your photos.
• We do not collect, store, or retain your photos on our servers. Photos are processed in real time to deliver the requested result and are not saved by us.
• We do not use your photos for identification, authentication, advertising, profiling, or any purpose other than delivering the result you requested.
• Your photos are shared only with fal.ai and the AI model provider it uses on our behalf, which are necessary to perform the requested edit, and Google Cloud, which only forwards them.
• We do not collect, store, or derive any face data, face geometry, face embeddings, or biometric identifiers from your photos.

Face Data

Photos uploaded to Cuts AI may include faces. We want to be explicit about how face data is handled:

• Collection. We do not collect, extract, or derive any face data — including face geometry, facial landmarks, face embeddings, or face recognition templates. Photos are treated as ordinary image data.
• Retention by us. We do not retain face data. We do not store your photos or any face data on our servers. Photos exist only for the duration of the processing request and are discarded immediately afterwards.
• Reasons we would store face data. We do not have any reason to store face data. Our app's sole purpose for receiving your photo is to generate the hairstyle preview you requested.
• Third parties we share photos with. Photos are sent to fal.ai, which uses an AI model provider on our behalf to create the preview. We do not share photos or face data with anyone else.
• Reason for sharing with fal.ai. fal.ai provides the AI image generation service that produces the hairstyle preview. We cannot generate the preview without sending the source photo to fal.ai.
• **fal.ai's handling of face data.** fal.ai processes the photo to generate an output image. We pass the X-Fal-Store-IO: 0 header so that fal.ai does not keep requests in its request history, and output images are automatically deleted after one hour. We do not ask fal.ai or the AI model provider to run face recognition or build face templates. The AI model provider processes the photo under its own terms. For the full details of fal.ai's data handling, refer to fal.ai's privacy policy: https://fal.ai/privacy.
