Image retention
Uploaded images and generated outputs should be kept only for the period needed to provide the requested service, maintain any history or storage feature you choose to use, prevent abuse, and meet legitimate legal or operational needs.
If an account includes saved history or cloud storage, files may remain available until you delete them, close the account, or the applicable storage period ends.

Google and its advertising partners may use cookies or similar technologies to show, limit, personalize, and measure advertisements. Information may include your IP address, browser details, advertising identifiers, pages visited, and interactions with advertisements.

With your direction
We may share information when you ask us to or give permission.
Sale or Sharing of Personal Information
We do not sell personal information for money.
Some US privacy laws may define certain targeted advertising activities as “selling” or “sharing” information even when no money is exchanged. Where applicable, you may request to opt out of those activities by contacting us at upscaylai@gmail.com or using an available privacy-choice control.
We will process recognized browser-based opt-out signals, such as Global Privacy Control, when required and technically supported.

These safeguards may include:
Encrypted connections
Access controls
Secure hosting
Software updates
Monitoring for misuse
Restricted access to stored information
Backup and recovery controls
No website, storage system, or internet transmission is completely secure. We cannot guarantee that unauthorized access, loss, or misuse will never occur.

You will not receive discriminatory treatment for making a privacy request where prohibited by law.

Children’s Privacy
Upscayl AI is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has submitted personal information, contact us at upscaylai@gmail.com so we can review and address the situation.
Parents and guardians should supervise children’s internet use and image uploads.
Third-Party Links and Services
The website may link to third-party websites, software, repositories, downloads, or services.
We do not control the privacy practices of independent third parties. Their privacy policies apply when you visit or use their services.
Review a third party’s privacy terms before submitting personal information or uploading images.
International Processing
Upscayl AI and its service providers may process information in the United States or other locations where they operate.
Privacy and data-protection rules may differ between locations. Where required, appropriate measures should be used for protected international transfers.
Do Not Track
Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” setting. Because there is no single industry-standard response to every Do Not Track signal, the website may not respond uniformly to it.
Where legally required, we will process recognized opt-out preference signals such as Global Privacy Control.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when our services, technology, advertising arrangements, or legal obligations change.
The updated policy will be posted on this page with a revised effective date. If a change materially affects how personal information is handled, we may provide additional notice where appropriate.
Review this page periodically for updates.
