Privacy Policy

Effective Date: April 7, 2026  |  Last Updated: April 7, 2026

Applies to: iOS App, Website, and All StyleMyCrown Platforms

At StyleMyCrown, we believe privacy, dignity, and identity protection are fundamental rights. This Privacy Policy explains in clear and plain language exactly how we collect, use, store, share, and protect your personal information when you use our app or website. By using StyleMyCrown, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

Section 1. Information We Collect

1a. Face Data and Facial Images

When you use the StyleMyCrown hairstyle transformation feature, you may voluntarily upload a photograph. These photographs may contain your facial image. This constitutes face data under applicable privacy laws and regulations including the Apple App Store Review Guidelines.

Specifically, regarding face data:

  • We collect user-submitted portrait photographs voluntarily uploaded by you for the sole purpose of generating AI-powered virtual hairstyle transformations.
  • The app does NOT collect biometric identifiers, facial geometry, facial landmarks, facial maps, or any biometric data derived from your face.
  • The app does NOT use Apple's Face ID, TrueDepth camera APIs, or ARKit face tracking.
  • The app does NOT use facial recognition technology of any kind.
  • Photo upload is always a voluntary, active user action. We never access your camera or photo library without your explicit initiation.

All planned uses of face data are strictly limited to:

  • Transmitting your photo to our private custom model to generate a virtual hairstyle transformation preview.
  • Returning the transformed result image to you within the app.
  • Temporarily caching the result on-device for display during your active session.

Your face data and photos are explicitly NOT used for:

  • Advertising or targeted marketing
  • User profiling or behavioral analysis
  • Identity verification or authentication
  • Facial recognition or biometric identification
  • Training, improving, or fine-tuning any AI or machine learning model
  • Sale, rent, or transfer to any third party beyond the processor described in Section 1b
  • Any purpose beyond generating the hairstyle preview you requested

1b. AI Processing of Face Data

AI Processor:Our Private Custom Model
Purpose:Processing your uploaded photo to generate virtual hairstyle transformation results.
Data Transmitted:Your uploaded photograph, which may contain your facial image.
Transmission Security:All data is transmitted over HTTPS/TLS encrypted connections.
Server Location:All data is hosted in the United States. There are currently no options for regional data residency. StyleMyCrown is built on Base44, which uses Supabase as the primary cloud database vendor (US servers) and Cloudflare CDN for caching and content delivery, which may distribute cached content to servers closer to your location globally to improve performance. AI photo processing occurs via our private custom model infrastructure.
Data Protection:Our private custom model provides strict protection of user data as stated in this policy. We do not use submitted images to train our AI models.
No Other Third Parties:No other third party receives, accesses, stores, or processes your photo or facial image data. We do not share your photo with advertisers, analytics providers, data brokers, or any other party.

1c. Face Data Retention

StyleMyCrown does not permanently store your uploaded photographs on our servers. The following retention schedule applies:

  • Your uploaded photo is transmitted to our private custom model and is NOT stored on StyleMyCrown's servers beyond the duration of the API call.
  • Upon completion of the AI processing response (typically within seconds), the original uploaded photo is automatically deleted from transit.
  • Our private custom model does not retain submitted images after processing is complete.
  • The generated transformation result image may be temporarily cached on-device during your active session.
  • If you choose to save a generated result, it is stored locally on your device only, under your full control.
  • You may delete any saved results at any time from within the app.
  • StyleMyCrown does not maintain a server-side archive of user photos or generated results.

1d. Account Information

If you create an account, we may collect:

  • Email address
  • Login and authentication credentials
  • Account creation date and timestamp
  • Subscription status (managed via RevenueCat)

We collect only what is necessary to provide and maintain access to the service.

1e. Subscription and Purchase Data

StyleMyCrown uses RevenueCat to manage in-app subscriptions. When you make a purchase:

  • RevenueCat receives transaction data from Apple's App Store to verify and manage your subscription.
  • RevenueCat notifies StyleMyCrown of your subscription status (active, canceled, expired) via secure webhook.
  • We do not collect or store your payment card information. All payment processing is handled by Apple.

1f. Limited Technical and Usage Data

We may collect minimal, non-identifying technical data including:

  • App performance metrics and error logs
  • Device type and operating system version (non-identifying)
  • App version and crash reports

This information is used solely to maintain app reliability, security, and performance. It is not linked to your identity or photos.

Section 2. How We Obtain Your Consent

Before you use the hairstyle transformation feature for the first time, StyleMyCrown will present you with a clear consent notice that:

  • Identifies that your photo will be sent to our private custom model for AI processing
  • Explains that your photo may contain your facial image
  • States that your photo is not stored or sold
  • Provides a link to this Privacy Policy
  • Requires you to actively tap 'Allow' before any data is transmitted

You may withdraw your consent at any time by discontinuing use of the hairstyle transformation feature. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.

Section 3. What We Do Not Do

To be unambiguous, StyleMyCrown explicitly does NOT:

  • Train, fine-tune, or improve any AI model using your images or data
  • Sell, rent, lease, or otherwise transfer your personal data to any third party for commercial purposes
  • Share your images with advertisers, marketing platforms, or data brokers
  • Perform facial recognition or biometric identification on your photos
  • Collect biometric identifiers, facial geometry, or facial maps
  • Alter your skin tone, facial features, or identity without your explicit intent and action
  • Retain your uploaded photos after AI processing is complete
  • Access your camera or photo library without your active initiation
  • Track your location
  • Share your data with law enforcement except as required by law

Section 4. Data Security

  • All data transmission between the app and third-party services uses HTTPS/TLS encryption
  • Account passwords are hashed and never stored in plain text
  • Access to user data is restricted to authorized personnel only
  • We regularly review our security practices and update them as necessary

While we implement robust security measures, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security but we are committed to protecting your data to the greatest extent possible.
