Yunnan Daochong Network Technology Co., Ltd. (“we”, “us”, or “our”) has developed and operates the HairGot AI application (“HairGot AI” or the “App”) as a free software application. This Service is made available to you by Yunnan Daochong Network Technology Co., Ltd. at no monetary cost and is offered strictly in accordance with the terms set out in this Privacy Policy.
This Privacy Policy explains, in a clear and transparent manner, how we collect, use, store, disclose and otherwise process your personal information when you access or use our Service. It is important that you read this document carefully so that you fully understand how and why your data is processed.
By downloading, installing, accessing or using our Service, you acknowledge that you have read, understood and agreed to be bound by this Privacy Policy. You also agree that we may collect and use your information as described herein for the purpose of providing and improving the Service. We will not use or disclose your personal information to any third party except as explicitly described in this Privacy Policy or as required by applicable law.
Unless otherwise defined in this Privacy Policy, the terms used in this document have the same meaning as in our Terms and Conditions, which are available within HairGot AI.
Face Data Policy
Data we send for AI processing — summary
- What data is sent: Photos you select (and any facial/body imagery therein).
- Who it is sent to: Our servers and, when we use them, our designated third-party AI or cloud processing providers.
- When we send it: Only after you have given consent in the app (e.g. by confirming before submitting).
- How long and where: Temporarily on our and our providers’ secure infrastructure; deleted after the effect is generated. See “How long will the data be stored?” and “Where will this information be stored?” below for details.
What face data does the app collect, and how is it used?
What we collect: The photo(s) you select in the app (which may contain facial and body imagery). We process them to detect and analyze facial feature points (e.g. eyes, nose, mouth) solely to provide face-related effects. We do not build or maintain a facial recognition database, nor store facial templates for identification or authentication.
How we collect it: You choose and upload the image through the in-app flow; the app sends it to our servers for processing.
Purpose and uses: Solely to generate the effect you requested (e.g. "Similar Faces", hair style). We do not use this data for identification, profiling, or marketing. Once processing is complete, the data is deleted and not retained.
Who processes your data?
To provide face-related effects, the images you upload are sent to our servers. Our servers may use third-party AI processing services (e.g. cloud AI infrastructure) to analyze facial features and generate effects. These processors act on our instructions and are contractually required to protect your data to the same standards we apply. We do not sell or share your facial images with any other third parties for their own purposes.
Your consent
Before you submit a photo for AI processing, we will ask for your explicit consent in the app. By tapping "Agree" or "Continue", you confirm that you have read this policy and agree to the collection and processing of your image as described here. You may decline; in that case, the AI effect feature will not be available for that submission.
How does the processing work?
You upload images to our servers through the app; our servers (and, when we use them, third-party AI or cloud processing services) analyze the images and generate the results; the app combines those results with materials or effects to produce the final output. Images and related data are temporarily stored in encrypted infrastructure (such as Amazon Web Services) and are deleted automatically after the compositing process is complete.
Will the data be shared with any third parties?
Facial images and related processing data are not shared with any third party for that party’s own purposes. They are used only to provide the effect you requested and are deleted immediately after processing.
How long will the data be stored?
Data is stored only temporarily and is deleted promptly after use (e.g. immediately after a new image is returned to you).
Where will this information be stored?
Images and related information are temporarily stored in our secure, encrypted infrastructure (such as AWS), subject to strict access control. When we use third-party AI or cloud processing providers, your data may also be processed or temporarily held on their secure infrastructure under our instructions; in all cases it is deleted immediately after processing.
Log Data
When you use the Service, in the event that an error occurs within the App, we may collect data and information from your device (via third‑party products) referred to as “Log Data”. Log Data may include, but is not limited to, details such as your device’s Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, device name, operating system version, the configuration of the App at the time of the error, the time and date of your use of the Service, and other technical statistics relevant to diagnosing and resolving issues.
This Log Data is collected and processed solely for the purposes of monitoring the performance of the Service, identifying and correcting technical problems, maintaining security, and improving the overall quality and stability of the App.
Cookies
Cookies are small data files that are commonly used as anonymous unique identifiers. They are transmitted to your browser by websites you visit and may be stored on your device’s internal memory or other storage.
The Service itself does not intentionally deploy or manage first‑party “cookies”. However, the App may include or rely on third‑party code, software development kits (SDKs), or libraries that use cookies or similar tracking technologies in order to collect information and enhance their services. Such technologies may, for example, help measure usage, prevent fraud, or improve service reliability.
You may choose to configure your device or browser to accept or reject cookies, or to notify you when a cookie is being sent. Please note that if you disable or refuse cookies, certain features or portions of the Service may not function properly or may become unavailable.
Service Providers
We may engage carefully selected third‑party companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf in connection with the provision and operation of the Service. These third‑party service providers may be engaged for, including but not limited to, the following purposes:
- To facilitate the provision and maintenance of the Service;
- To provide the Service on our behalf (for example, hosting, storage or infrastructure services);
- To process your images using AI (e.g. facial analysis and effect generation), we may use carefully selected third-party AI or cloud processing services. Where they process personal data on our behalf, we require them to protect your data under contract to the same or equal standards as this policy (including confidentiality, security, and use only for the purposes we specify);
- To perform services related to the core functionality of the App; or
- To assist us in monitoring, analyzing and improving how the Service is used.
Where such third parties have access to your personal information, they may use it solely for the tasks we assign and are contractually obligated to maintain confidentiality and security and to refrain from any other use. We ensure that any third party that processes your personal data (including any AI or cloud processing provider) is bound by data processing agreements requiring the same or equal protection of your information as described in this Privacy Policy.
Security
We recognize the importance of the personal information entrusted to us and we are committed to protecting it. We implement commercially reasonable and appropriate technical and organizational measures designed to safeguard your personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration or destruction.
However, you should be aware that no method of transmission over the internet, and no method of electronic storage, is completely secure or error‑free. While we strive to use all reasonable means to protect your personal information, we cannot and do not guarantee its absolute security. You use the Service and provide information to us at your own risk.
Links to Other Sites
The Service may contain links to websites or services that are operated by third parties and are not under our control. If you click on a third‑party link, you will be directed to that third‑party site or service. We strongly encourage you to review the privacy policies and terms of any third‑party websites or services that you visit.
We do not endorse, and are not responsible or liable for, the content, privacy practices, data‑processing activities or security measures of any third‑party sites or services. Your interactions with such third parties are solely between you and the relevant third party.
Children's Privacy
Our Service is not directed to, and is not intended for use by, individuals under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect or solicit personally identifiable information from children under 13 years of age. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child under the age of 13, we will take prompt steps to delete such information from our records.
If you are a parent or legal guardian and you believe that your child has provided personal information to us in connection with the Service, please contact us using the details provided in the “Contact Us” section so that we can investigate and take appropriate action.
