Summary: We take your privacy seriously. We never sell your data, never use your photos to train AI without consent, and provide permanent secure storage with AES-256 encryption. You own all your generated headshots.
We collect information you provide directly to us, including: your name and email address when you create an account; photographs you upload for headshot generation; payment information processed through our secure payment provider (Stripe); and usage data such as features used and preferences selected. We also automatically collect certain technical information including IP address, browser type, device information, and cookies.
We use the information we collect to: provide, maintain, and improve our headshot generation service; process your transactions and send related information; send you technical notices, updates, and support messages; respond to your comments, questions, and customer service requests; monitor and analyze trends, usage, and activities; detect, investigate, and prevent fraudulent transactions and other illegal activities; and personalize and improve your experience.
When you upload photographs, they are processed by our AI engine to generate professional headshots. Your original photographs and generated headshots are stored securely in our cloud infrastructure. We do not use your photographs to train our AI models without your explicit consent. Your photos are never shared with third parties or used for any purpose other than providing you with the requested service.
We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your personal information, including: AES-256 encryption for data at rest and in transit; SOC 2 Type II compliance; regular security audits and penetration testing; access controls and authentication mechanisms; and secure cloud infrastructure hosted on enterprise-grade providers. Generated headshots are stored permanently in your account as part of our free cloud storage service.
We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. We may share your information only in the following circumstances: with service providers who assist in operating our service (payment processing, cloud hosting); to comply with legal obligations or respond to lawful requests; to protect the rights, property, or safety of FIRST IMPRESS.AI, our users, or the public; and in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, with appropriate notice.
You have the right to: access, update, or delete your personal information; download all your generated headshots at any time; opt out of marketing communications; request a copy of your data in a portable format; and delete your account and all associated data.
