Welcome to VerifyAI ("the App"). We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle your information when you use our services.
1. Information We Collect
To provide and improve our services, we or our third-party partners may collect the following types of information:
Information You Provide Directly:
- Photos or Videos: Images you actively upload for analysis. This is central to our service.
Information We Collect Automatically:
- User ID: An anonymous, randomly generated identifier used to manage your purchases and restore them, which is not linked to your real identity.
- Purchases: Your purchase history within the App, used to verify your subscription status and unlock corresponding Pro features.
- Product Interaction: Anonymous usage data, such as button clicks and feature usage, to help us understand how the App is used and improve it.
- Diagnostics: Includes anonymous crash logs and performance data (e.g., launch times, error rates) used to maintain App stability and fix technical issues.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect for the following purposes:
- Photos or Videos: Solely to provide the core image analysis service. We delete them immediately after analysis.
- User ID and Purchases: To verify your payment status, unlock Pro features, and allow you to restore purchases on new devices or after reinstallation.
- Product Interaction and Diagnostics: To monitor App stability, fix bugs, optimize performance, and understand how to improve the overall user experience.
3. Information Sharing and Third-Party Services
We do not share your personal information with unrelated third parties. However, to fulfill the App's core functionality, we must transmit your image data to the following third-party partners:
- Apple: For processing all in-App Purchases (subscriptions, consumables) and receipt validation. We do not have access to your payment information.
- RevenueCat: We use RevenueCat as our subscription and purchase management platform. RevenueCat helps us manage in-app purchases, validate receipts, track subscription status, and enable cross-platform purchase restoration. RevenueCat may collect and process your anonymous user ID, purchase history, and subscription data in accordance with their privacy policy. For more information, please visit RevenueCat's Privacy Policy.
- Image Analysis Service Providers:
- Google (Cloud Vision API): Used for face detection and web image matching.
- SerpAPI: Acts as a search proxy, forwarding images to Google Lens and Yandex for reverse image search.
- Shutterstock: Used to confirm if an image originates from its commercial stock photo library.
- Temporary Image Hosting Services:
- ImgBB / tmpfiles.org: We temporarily upload images to these services so that certain analysis engines (like Google Lens) can access them via a URL.
- Analytics and Diagnostics Services (e.g., Firebase, Sentry): We may share anonymous product interaction and diagnostic data with these services to improve the App.
These third-party services' use and retention of data are governed by their respective privacy policies. We recommend reviewing their policies for more details.
4. Data Retention and Deletion (Our Core Commitment)
Regarding Your Images:
We operate on a "use-and-discard" principle. Images you upload are only temporarily stored on our servers for the brief duration of the analysis task. Immediately after the analysis is complete, the original image data is permanently deleted. We never store, archive, or back up any of your original images.
- Regarding Other Data: Anonymous user IDs, purchase records, and diagnostic data may be retained for as long as necessary to maintain App functionality (e.g., purchase restoration) and for service improvement.
5. Security
We implement commercially reasonable technical and administrative measures to protect your information. However, please understand that no internet transmission or electronic storage method is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
6. Children's Privacy
This App is not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
7. Changes to This Privacy Policy
