Privacy Policy
1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how Aculix Technologies LLP ("we," "us," or "our") handles information in connection with your use of Auryn ("the App"), available on Apple App Store and Google Play Store.
We are committed to your privacy. This policy is designed to be clear and transparent about what we collect, what we don't collect, and how we use the information we do have.
2. Information We Collect
2.1 Information You Provide
- Images you upload: Photos transmitted to our AI processing pipeline solely to generate your requested output. We do not store, retain, log, or use your images beyond real-time processing. Images are never used for AI training of any kind.
- Subscription and purchase information: Payment is handled entirely by Apple App Store or Google Play Store. We do not collect or store your payment details. We may receive limited purchase metadata (e.g., subscription status, plan type) to manage your in-app credits.
2.2 Information Collected Automatically
- Usage data: Anonymised data about how the App is used, such as which filters are applied, session length, and crash reports. This data does not identify you personally and is used to improve the App.
- Device information: Basic device information such as operating system version and device type for diagnostic and compatibility purposes.
2.3 Information We Do Not Collect
- We do not collect your name, email address, or any account credentials unless you voluntarily contact us for support.
- We do not collect precise location data.
- We do not build user profiles or sell any data to third parties.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use the information described above to:
- Process and return your image generation requests
- Manage your subscription and credit balance
- Improve the performance and stability of the App
- Respond to support inquiries if you contact us
We do not use your data for advertising, profiling, or any purpose beyond operating the App.
4. Image Processing and Third-Party AI Services
To generate AI-filtered images, your uploaded images are transmitted to third-party AI model providers via OpenRouter. These providers process your image transiently to generate the output and do not retain your images.
We encourage you to review OpenRouter's privacy policy for additional information on how they handle data in transit: openrouter.ai/privacy
No images you upload are used to train any AI model — by us or any third-party provider we work with.
5. Data Retention
Since we do not store your images, there is nothing to delete on our end following the completion of your request.
Any anonymised usage analytics we retain are kept only for as long as necessary to serve their intended purpose.
6. Sharing of Information
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We may share limited information only in the following circumstances:
- Service providers: We work with third-party providers (e.g., OpenRouter for AI processing) strictly to operate the App. These providers are bound by their own privacy policies and are not permitted to use your data for any other purpose.
- Legal requirements: We may disclose information if required to do so by law or in response to valid legal process.
- Business transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, user data may be transferred as part of that transaction. You will be notified of any such change.
7. Children's Privacy
The App is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take steps to delete it.
8. Security
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect information transmitted through the App. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights under applicable data protection laws, including the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you
- Request correction or deletion of your data
- Object to or restrict certain processing
- Lodge a complaint with a data protection authority
Since we collect minimal personal information and do not store your images, most of these rights may have limited practical scope in the context of the App. To make a request, contact us using the details below.
10. App Store Platforms
The App is distributed via Apple App Store and Google Play Store. Each platform operates under its own privacy policy. We encourage you to review:
11. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of material changes through the App or by updating the "Last updated" date above. Your continued use of the App after changes take effect constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.
