Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 6, 2026
Photospital ("Photospital", "we", "us") is an app that restores and enhances your photos using AI, with an optional service to order physical prints. This policy explains what we collect, how we use it, and who we share it with. We built Photospital to collect as little as possible.
Information we collect
- Photos you submit. When you restore a photo, the image is sent to our servers and to our AI processing provider to produce the result. Photos are processed on demand and are not stored on our servers after processing, except where you place a print order (see below).
- Purchases & subscriptions. If you subscribe to Photospital Pro, the purchase is handled by Apple. We receive a confirmation that a valid subscription exists; we never receive your card number.
- Print orders. If you order prints, we collect your name, email address, shipping address, the photo to be printed, and order details so we can produce and deliver your order.
- On-device data. Your restoration history is stored only on your device and is not uploaded to us.
What we do not do
- No user accounts or logins.
- No advertising, and no tracking of you across apps or websites.
- No sale of your personal information.
- No third-party analytics or ad SDKs. (Our payment provider's SDK collects limited data needed to process payments and prevent fraud.)
How photos are processed
To restore a photo, we send it to Replicate, our AI model host, which runs the restoration and returns the result. Photos are used only to produce your result and are not used to train models by us. We do not retain your photos after processing, other than the specific image attached to a print order.
Who we share information with
We share information only with the service providers needed to run the app, and only for that purpose:
| Provider | What it receives | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Replicate | The photo you're restoring | AI photo processing |
| Apple | Subscription transaction | Billing & subscription management |
| Stripe | Payment details for print orders | Payment processing |
| Prodigi | Name, shipping address, order photo | Printing & shipping your order |
We may also disclose information if required by law.
Data retention
- Restoration photos: not retained after processing.
- Print orders: order records (including name, address, and the ordered image) are retained as needed to fulfill the order and for our business and tax records.
Your choices & rights
Because we don't have accounts, most data isn't tied to a profile. For print orders, you may request access to or deletion of your order information (subject to records we must keep for legal/accounting reasons) by emailing support@photospital.com. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under laws such as the GDPR or CCPA; contact us to exercise them.
Security
Data is transmitted over encrypted connections (HTTPS). No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, but we take reasonable measures to protect your information.
Children
Photospital is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the date above.
