How secure and private are my photos? What happens to my data?

New originals upload directly from your browser to FAL. PhotoGuru does not save these new originals in its S3 storage or database. FAL may store and process them, and some tools also send images to Replicate. Direct upload is not a promise of no third-party retention.

What PhotoGuru stores

Generated and edited photos and videos are saved in our S3 storage and linked in our database for your gallery. The legacy wizard for training new personalized models is retired. Existing models and outputs are retained.

Previously uploaded originals

Previously uploaded originals may remain until legacy cleanup completes. Our current cleanup code is configured to run daily for sources at least 30 days old. It covers legacy training photos and archives, editing and video source images, and temporary analysis uploads. Live cleanup has not been verified.

Training ZIPs use the oldest included source's deadline, not the ZIP creation date. ZIPs without source-age metadata qualify for the next cleanup after legacy jobs drain. Source cleanup does not delete generated or edited outputs, existing models or accounts.

Providers and deletion requests

Providers, backups and logs have separate retention arrangements. Our legacy cleanup does not guarantee erasure from those systems on the same schedule. Keep your own originals; future processing may require another upload.

Email privacy@photoguruai.com to request access, correction or deletion of your data. Account deletion and output deletion are separate from source cleanup, and legal retention requirements may apply. See our Privacy Policy for details.
