AI Decorator ("the app") is made by Jonathan Wilson, an independent developer in the United Kingdom ("I", "me"). I am the data controller for the personal data described here. This policy explains what data the app handles, why, who receives it and your rights. Questions or requests: jonathan@podcastalarm.app.
When you start a redesign, the photo you picked or took (and any mask you drew) is sent with your style choice or prompt to Replicate, a third-party AI service that runs the image model (FLUX, by Black Forest Labs) and returns the result. Replicate deletes the photo, prompt and result from its systems about one hour after the redesign finishes. Photos are used only to make your redesign. I don't use them to train AI models or for advertising, and I don't sell them.
The app only reads the photos you pick or take; it never scans your photo library. Camera and photo access can be turned off any time in iOS Settings. Redesigns are generated by AI and may not be accurate to real products, sizes or materials.
Before-and-after images and prompts are saved on your device so you can see them in the app's gallery. They are not uploaded to me. Deleting the app deletes them.
The app uses Google Firebase Analytics, Crashlytics and Remote Config to understand how the app is used, fix crashes and switch features on or off. This includes which screens are opened, the text of prompts you type, ratings you give results, error messages, device model, OS version, language and approximate country. It is linked to a random app-instance identifier, not to your name or email. The app does not use this data for advertising or track you across other companies' apps and websites.
Please don't type personal details (names, addresses, phone numbers) into prompts: prompt text is included in analytics so I can see which styles people ask for.
Purchases are handled by Apple. The app uses RevenueCat to check whether you have an active subscription; RevenueCat receives an anonymous app user ID and your App Store purchase receipts. I never see your payment details. To cancel or ask for a refund, use your Apple account's Subscriptions settings or reportaproblem.apple.com.
The current app has no shopping links. Older versions may still show a section of furniture from Amazon. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. The app sends Amazon no photos, prompts or identifiers of yours, and the links are fixed (they contain only my affiliate tag, nothing about you). But when that section is shown, the product images load from Amazon's servers, and if you tap a link your device connects to Amazon directly, so Amazon receives your IP address and device/browser information. Amazon handles this as an independent controller under its own privacy notice, which also governs how long it keeps it. I receive only aggregate, non-identifying commission reports.
No account, name, email address, contacts or precise location is collected by the app.
| Use | Lawful basis (UK/EU GDPR) |
|---|---|
| Sending your photo, mask and prompt to Replicate to make a redesign | Performance of a contract: it is the service you asked for |
| Checking your subscription with Apple and RevenueCat | Performance of a contract |
| Showing Amazon product links and earning referral commission | Legitimate interests: funding the app; Amazon acts as its own controller |
| Analytics, crash reports and remote feature switches (Firebase) | Legitimate interests: keeping the app working, fixing bugs and improving it, using pseudonymous data only |
You can object to processing based on legitimate interests by emailing me.
The providers above (Replicate, Google, RevenueCat and Apple) process data on my behalf and are based in, or store data in, the United States. Transfers from the UK/EU rely on the UK-US Data Bridge and EU-US Data Privacy Framework where the provider is certified, and otherwise on the standard contractual clauses (with the UK Addendum) in each provider's data processing terms. Amazon (see Shopping links) is not my processor; it receives data directly from your device as its own controller.
Under UK and EU data protection law you can ask to access, correct or delete data relating to you, to restrict or object to its use, and to receive it in a portable format. Email jonathan@podcastalarm.app. Because the data is not linked to your identity, include your app's anonymous ID if you have it, or the date and approximate time you used the app. Providing data is not a legal requirement, but redesigns can't be made without sending the photo.
If you're unhappy with how your data is handled, please email me first at jonathan@podcastalarm.app with "Privacy complaint" in the subject. I'll acknowledge it within 30 days and tell you what I'm doing about it. You can also complain to the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint) or, in the EU, to your local data protection authority.
The app is not directed at children under 13 and I do not knowingly collect their data.
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted here with a new date.
