Thank you for choosingFace Swap App (“we,” “us,” or “our”). We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the security of your personal data. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, store, and share information—including facial data—when you use our face-swapping features. By using Face Swap App, you agree to the terms of this policy.
1. Information We Collect
1.Facial Data
•We collect certain facial data when you choose to use our face-swapping functionality. Facial data generally includes unique measurements or a representation of a user’s facial characteristics derived from uploaded images or video content.
•Note: We do not collect or store biometric identifiers (such as face scans for the purpose of determining identity) beyond what is strictly necessary to perform face-swapping features, as described below.
2.Other Data
•We may also collect non-face-related data, such as device information (e.g., operating system, device type), usage analytics (e.g., frequency of app use, crash logs), and any personal information you provide when you contact us.
2. Why We Collect and Store Face Data
We collect and process your facial data for the sole purpose of providing and improving our face-swapping features. Specifically, we use facial data to:
1.Identify Facial Landmarks
Our algorithms detect facial landmarks to enable the swap and produce a convincing final image.
2.Enhance User Experience
Storing certain facial data temporarily allows us to optimize the quality of face swaps, troubleshoot technical issues, and improve the performance of our services.
3.Quality Assurance
We may use aggregated or anonymized data to refine our face detection and swapping technology. This helps us ensure consistent, high-quality results for all users.
3. How Long We Store Face Data
1.Retention Period
We store facial data only for as long as necessary to provide and improve the face-swapping feature. Typically, facial data is retained temporarily (e.g., for X days) so that you can revisit or modify the face swap, and so we can continuously improve accuracy.
2.Reason for This Duration
•Technical Optimization: Temporary storage allows you to edit your face swaps or undo them if needed.
•Continued Improvement: Short-term retention enables us to enhance our technology based on aggregate trends and feedback.
3.No Indefinite Storage
We do not store facial data indefinitely. All face data is either deleted or anonymized once it is no longer needed for its original purpose.
4. Sharing Your Face Data with Third Parties
1.Who We Share It With
•Service Providers: We may share facial data with trusted third-party service providers or cloud storage providers who help us process or store the data strictly for enabling the face-swapping feature.
•Analytics Providers: In some cases, we may share aggregated and anonymized facial data with analytics providers to improve our service. This data does not identify you personally.
2.Reasons for Sharing
•Service Delivery: Third-party vendors assist in hosting, processing, or transmitting data to ensure the app runs smoothly.
•Feature Improvement: We may rely on specialized vendors to enhance our facial recognition and face-swapping algorithms.
3.Third-Party Data Storage
•Do Third Parties Store Face Data?
•If our third-party service providers do store face data, they do so only on our behalf and under strict contractual obligations to protect your privacy.
•Privacy Practices of Third Parties: We require that all third-party providers comply with our data protection standards and applicable laws. They must explain why they store face data, how long they keep it, and why it is stored for that duration.
