Profile Maker is provided by Umit Kaya and is intended for use as is.
Umit Kaya ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how information is handled when you use the Profile Maker mobile application (the "App"). By using the App, you consent to the practices described in this policy.
1. Information Collection and Use
1.1 Photo Processing
Profile Maker is designed to help you create professional profile photos with AI-powered background removal and editing features.
- The app does not require account creation
- The app does not collect or store personal information on its own servers
- Some image editing features (such as filters, frames, and adjustments) run fully locally on your device
1.2 AI-Powered Background Removal
For AI-powered features such as background removal, images are temporarily processed on our servers:
- Photos are uploaded to our servers only when you use background removal or AI enhancement features
- Images are processed using machine learning models to remove backgrounds and enhance your photos
- Photos are retained only for the time necessary to complete the processing (typically a few seconds)
- Photos are not saved or stored beyond the processing time required
- We do not maintain a history of your uploaded images
- You can only access processed images if you choose to save them locally on your device

We may collect certain information automatically, including:
- Device information (model, operating system version)

We value your trust and strive to use commercially acceptable means of protecting your data. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

The App may use third-party services for:
- AI-based image processing and background removal

These third-party services have their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review their policies. Third-party providers have access only to the information necessary to perform their tasks and are obligated not to use it for other purposes.

This information is used only for debugging and performance improvement and is not used to identify individual users.

8. Children's Privacy
The App does not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information through the App, please contact us.
