Privacy Policy.

This policy explains how Spotted handles photos, videos, face-related data, subscription status, and app usage data.

In plain words: how our AI works

AI isn't perfect. Spotted uses AI to find and enhance your best shots. Sometimes it may miss a detail, misread lighting or an expression, or make an edit that doesn't look quite right. You always see results first and decide what to keep.

Your photos stay yours. We never sell your photos, never use them for advertising, and never show them to other people unless you choose to share them. They are processed by our automated systems and trusted AI and cloud partners working for us.

Your personal look, kept personal. To keep you looking like you, your personal AI photographer builds a private likeness model from photos you choose to share. It's used only for your edits, and you can delete it anytime. With the "Make AI personal with your data" option, you choose whether Spotted can also use the photos you share, and their edits, to train and improve its own AI. You choose when you sign up and can change it anytime in Settings. Photos on your phone that you haven't shared are never used.

A person may occasionally see a photo. A small, trained team reviews a sample of photos and edits to check quality, and may also look at content to help with support or safety.

01

Overview

Spotted is personal AI photographer on monthly subscription. Users pay through Apple or Google in the app.

Photos and face-related data are processed only for editing features, with clear consent, deletion, and cancellation controls.

This policy applies to Spotted app users and visitors to Spotted websites.

It explains what we collect, why we use it, when we share it, and how users can delete their account or contact support.

02

Information Collected

Depending on how you use Spotted, we may collect:

  • Name, email address, phone number, and account profile details.
  • Photos and videos you select, upload, generate, edit, or permit Spotted to process.
  • Face data: faces in your photo library are grouped on your phone to build Memories. If you use your personal AI photographer, a model of your appearance is also created to keep your edits looking like you (see section 04).
  • Edit preferences, device information, app logs, crash reports, and analytics events.
  • Subscription status, purchase platform, plan, billing state, and support history.
  • Contacts: when you add someone to your circle, we save their name, phone number and your relationship to them, so we can deliver what you share. We don't upload the rest of your contacts.
  • Location: if you allow it, Spotted collects your location, including in the background, and stores it with your photos. We use it to build a timeline of the places you've been and to group your photos into events and Memories. People you add to your circle or tag in a Memory can see where and when it happened. Photos edited by Spotted carry a watermark showing the place and time, including when you share them outside Spotted, such as on social media; premium plans can turn the watermark off. You can delete your location history anytime in the app, and it is deleted when you delete your account. We don't sell your location or use it for advertising.
  • Motion: used on your device to tell when you've stopped somewhere, so photos from one place are grouped together.
  • Calendar: if you connect your calendar, we use event details such as dinners and trips to name and group your photos.

03

Photo Processing

  • To provide photo editing, enhancement, generation, and personal photographer features, Spotted may process selected photos, videos, prompts, face-related data, edit instructions, and generated outputs through Spotted systems and trusted third-party service providers.
  • These providers may include cloud hosting providers, AI model providers, GPU or inference platforms, safety and quality tools, analytics tools, crash reporting tools, payment platforms, and customer support tools.
  • The exact provider or model used may depend on the feature selected, model availability, region, safety requirements, quality settings, and technical performance. This may include provider-supported models and infrastructure operated by third parties.
  • We use these providers only to provide, maintain, secure, troubleshoot, and improve Spotted features. We do not sell user photos, private camera-roll content, face-related data, or generated outputs. We do not use private camera-roll content for unrelated advertising or profiling.
  • Personal likeness model and AI training. From photos you choose to share, Spotted and its cloud and AI partners create a personal model of your appearance so edits stay true to you. It is used only for your account, and you can delete it anytime in Settings, which removes it from our systems and our partners' systems. Spotted only uses your photos and edits to train and improve its own AI if the "Make AI personal with your data" option is on. You choose when you sign up and can turn it off anytime in Settings. When you turn it off, we stop using your photos for training and delete the copies kept for training within 30 days; models already trained are not changed. Photos on your device that you have not shared with Spotted are never used. If you appear in someone else's photo and want it removed from our training data, email support@tryspotted.com.
  • Some processing may take place outside the UK, EEA, or the user's country of residence. Where required, Spotted uses appropriate safeguards for international data transfers.

04

Face and Identity

Spotted finds and groups faces in your photo library on your phone so you can name people and build Memories. This face data stays on your device and is never uploaded, and deleting the app removes it. To keep your edits looking like you, your personal AI photographer creates a model of your appearance from photos you share. It is stored securely with our cloud provider, Amazon Web Services, and with our AI partners while in use. You can delete it anytime in Settings, which removes it from our systems and our partners' systems, and it is deleted when you delete your account.

  • Face-related data is used to create identity-consistent edits requested by the user.
  • Face-related data is not sold.
  • Users may delete their account or request support with deletion of identity-related data.
  • Spotted may limit or disable features that require identity processing if permission is removed.

We do not claim that every AI output will perfectly preserve identity or match user preference.

05

Camera-Roll Automation

  • Automatic camera-roll review only happens after permission.
  • Users can limit photo access through device settings.
  • Users can pause automation or switch to manual mode where available.
  • Spotted processes only the media and related metadata needed to provide requested photo features.
  • Permission can be changed or revoked in device settings.

06

Human Review

  • Because we keep improving our AI, a small team of trained reviewers may look at a sample of photos and edits to check quality and make results better. Staff may also review content when needed for support or safety.
  • Review access is limited to the purpose that requires it.
  • Reviewers and support staff are expected to handle user content confidentially.

07

Data Sharing

We may share limited user data with trusted service providers only where needed to operate Spotted. This may include selected photos, videos, prompts, edit instructions, generated outputs, face-related data, device logs, account information, payment status, and support information.

Service providers are used to help us run cloud storage, AI image generation, image editing, GPU processing, safety checks, analytics, crash reporting, payments, customer support, and legal compliance.

We may change providers from time to time as our product, models, infrastructure, or safety requirements change.

Our cloud and AI partners include companies such as Amazon Web Services, Google, OpenAI, Runware and fal.ai, as well as other AI model providers. We may change partners from time to time.

Sharing with your circle. You can choose to share photos and Memories with people you add to your circle. Shared items are visible only to the people you share them with. If someone isn't on Spotted yet, we hold the share and deliver it if they join with that phone number. You can stop sharing at any time.

08

No Data Sale

We do not sell personal data, photos, face data, or private camera-roll content.

Service providers may include AI providers, cloud hosting, analytics, crash reporting, payment platforms, customer support tools, and legal or safety authorities when required.

Payment platforms such as Apple and Google handle in-app purchase billing according to their own platform rules.

We may disclose information if required for legal compliance, safety, security, fraud prevention, or dispute handling.

09

Retention

Uploaded photos, generated edits, face models, and logs are retained only as needed for service, support, safety, and legal requirements. Account deletion removes user content within the stated timeframe.

  • Photos you send to your personal AI photographer: if "Make AI personal with your data" is off, we delete the original from our servers within 30 days after your edit is delivered. If it is on, we keep the original and its edits to train Spotted's AI until you turn it off or delete your account, and then delete them within 30 days. Edited photos stay in your account until you delete them or your account. Our AI partners may keep photos for a short time to process them, as set out in their terms.
  • Support, safety, crash, and analytics logs may be kept for operational and legal purposes.
  • Limited billing or legal records may be retained where required.

10

Account Deletion

Users can delete their account in-app and via web or email. Deleting an account removes photos, generated edits, identity models, and profile data, except limited records legally required.

11

Spotted is not intended for children under 13. Body-editing or adult appearance features are 18+ and opt-in. For privacy concerns, account deletion requests, or complaints, contact support@tryspotted.com.
