Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 17, 2026

Scope

This policy explains what information Shiva Apps LLC collects through the Photonic AI app and website, how we use it, and the choices you have. This policy does not cover information practices of Apple, Google, or other third-party platforms through which you may access the App.

Information we collect

  • Account data. Email address and display name from your Google or Apple sign-in.
  • Photos you upload. Used to train a private AI model that reproduces your likeness. Stored encrypted at rest.
  • Generated images and prompts. Stored so you can view, re-download, or delete them.
  • Usage signals. Anonymous device type, app version, crash reports, and feature-usage counters. No advertising identifiers.
  • Purchase records. Transaction IDs from Apple’s in-app purchase system. We do not store credit card numbers.

How we use it

  • Train your private AI model and generate images on request.
  • Authenticate you and grant purchased credits.
  • Diagnose crashes and improve reliability.
  • Communicate important service updates (no marketing email).

Third-party processors

We use trusted third-party services to run the App. These providers process data on our behalf under confidentiality and data-protection obligations:

  • Google Cloud / Firebase — hosting, authentication, and storage.
  • Google Gemini — image quality scoring and generation.
  • Astria AI — model fine-tuning for HD image generation.
  • Apple — App Store purchases and transaction verification.

We do not sell personal information to third parties and do not share it for behavioral advertising.

Retention and deletion

You can delete your uploaded photos and trained model at any time from in-app settings. When you delete your account we remove your uploaded photos, trained model, and generated images within 30 days, except where retention is required by law (for example, tax records for purchases).

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal information we hold about you, or to object to certain processing. To exercise these rights, email support@photonic.ai.

Children

The App is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.

Security

We use industry-standard measures (transport encryption, access controls, least-privilege service accounts) to protect data. No system is perfectly secure; we encourage you to use a strong unique password on your sign-in provider account.

Changes

We will post updates to this policy at this URL and update the “Last updated” date. Material changes will be announced in the App with reasonable notice.
