Privacy Policy - OKTAY KUCUKSAHIN

Last Updated: July 7, 2026

At OKTAY KUCUKSAHIN, we are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect your information when you use any mobile application published by us (each, an "App"). It applies to all our Apps, whether currently available or released in the future, including AI-powered image and video generation apps, AI-powered keyboard apps, and other AI-based productivity and entertainment tools. This Privacy Policy is part of our Terms of Use.

Not all sections apply to every App: sections describing a specific feature type (such as photo processing or keyboard functionality) apply only to Apps that include that feature. Each App's features are described on its App Store product page.

By downloading, installing, or using an App, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to this Privacy Policy.

1. INFORMATION WE COLLECT

1.1 Information You Provide

• Account Information: When you create an account or use the App, we may collect your email address and other registration details.
• Input Content: Text prompts, photos, videos, or other inputs you submit to generate AI-powered results. For Apps with keyboard functionality, Input Content means only the text you explicitly submit to an AI action (see Section 2A).
• User Content: All content generated through the App, including AI-generated images, videos, and text.
• Communication Data: When you contact us for support, we collect your email and message content.

1.2 Automatically Collected Information

• Device Information: Device type, operating system, unique device identifiers, and mobile network information.
• Usage Data: Features you use, time spent on the App, interaction patterns, performance data, and generation count (number of images/videos generated or AI requests made).
• App Activity: Crash reports, error logs, and diagnostic information.

App Tracking Transparency: Where an App requests permission through Apple's App Tracking Transparency framework, tracking occurs only if you grant permission. You can deny or withdraw this permission at any time in iOS Settings › Privacy & Security › Tracking, and the App remains fully functional without it.

1.3 Usage and Generation Limits

To ensure fair usage and maintain service quality for all users, we track the number of AI generations and AI requests you make. AI features are subject to fair-use limits (which may include hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly caps). The limits applicable to each App, and whether they differ between free and premium plans, are displayed in the App, on its purchase screen, or on its App Store page. Where a periodic limit applies, it resets at the start of the applicable period (for example, monthly limits reset on the first day of each calendar month).

1.4 Payment and Subscription Information

• Payment processing is handled securely by Apple App Store. We do not store your credit card or payment information.
• We receive transaction confirmations and subscription status from the App Store.

2. PHOTO AND VIDEO DATA & AI PROCESSING

This section applies to Apps that allow you to upload photos or videos for AI processing.

2.1 How We Process Your Photos and Videos

When you upload photos or videos to the App for AI transformation:

• They are securely transmitted to our processing servers via encrypted connections.
• They are processed by AI models operated by our third-party AI service providers (see Section 4.1) to generate the transformations you request.
• Automatic Deletion: All uploaded photos and videos are automatically and permanently deleted from our servers within 24 hours of upload.
• Generated content (Output Content) remains accessible to you until you delete it or terminate your account.
• Usage Limits: Generations are subject to the fair-use limits described in Section 1.3.

2.2 Face Data & Image Processing

IMPORTANT: We do not collect, analyze, or store facial data or biometric identifiers.

All photos, including those that may contain faces, are processed solely to apply visual effects and AI-generated transformations (e.g., anime, cartoon, portrait, avatar, or fantasy styles).

• No Facial Recognition: The App does not perform facial recognition, face mapping, or identity analysis.
• No Biometric Data Collection: We do not create, infer, or retain any data that can identify or authenticate an individual based on facial features.
• Artistic Rendering Only: The App's AI models process images exclusively for artistic rendering purposes and do not perform biometric analysis of any kind.
• Temporary Processing: Photos are processed temporarily on secure servers and automatically deleted within 24 hours.
• No Database Storage: We do not maintain any database of facial features, face templates, or biometric identifiers.
• Third-Party Processing: Photos are processed by our third-party AI service providers (see Section 4.1), which operate under strict data processing agreements and do not retain your images after processing.

What We Do:

• Apply artistic filters and style transfers to your photos
• Generate creative transformations (anime, cartoon, fantasy, portraits, avatars, etc.)
• Enhance images using AI algorithms
• Process images to deliver the visual effects you request

What We DO NOT Do:

• Identify individuals from facial features
• Authenticate users based on face data
• Create biometric profiles or templates
• Match faces across different photos
• Analyze demographic characteristics from faces
• Store or retain any facial recognition data
• Share face data with third parties for identification purposes

Purpose of Processing: The App uses uploaded photos containing faces strictly for generating the AI results you request. No facial recognition, face mapping, or identity analysis is performed.

2.3 Data Security During Processing

• All photos and videos are transmitted using industry-standard encryption (TLS/SSL).
• They are stored temporarily in secure, access-controlled storage during processing.
• We implement strict access controls to prevent unauthorized access to uploaded content.
• No Sharing: We do not sell, rent, trade, or share your uploaded photos or videos with third parties for marketing or advertising purposes.
• No Model Training: Uploaded photos and videos are never used to train AI models or for any purpose beyond generating your requested output.

2A. KEYBOARD DATA & AI TEXT PROCESSING

This section applies to Apps that include a custom keyboard extension.

2A.1 No Keystroke Logging

IMPORTANT: Our keyboards do not log, record, collect, store, or transmit your keystrokes.

• Regular typing — keys, word suggestions, emoji, haptics — happens entirely on your device and requires no network connection.
• We do not maintain any record of what you type during normal typing, and nothing you type is sent anywhere automatically.

2A.2 When Text Is Transmitted

Text leaves your device only when you explicitly invoke an AI action (such as grammar correction, tone rewriting, translation, or Ask AI). At that moment:

• The relevant text from the active text field is transmitted over an encrypted connection (TLS/SSL) to our third-party AI service provider (see Section 4.1), through a secure proxy layer.
• The text is processed transiently, solely to generate the result you requested, and the result is returned to your keyboard.
• We do not store the submitted text on our servers.
• Under our providers' API data usage terms, content submitted via their APIs is not used to train their models.
• Your text is never used for advertising, profiling, or marketing purposes, and is never sold or shared with third parties beyond the processing described here.

2A.3 Full Access Permission

Apple requires custom keyboards to obtain the "Allow Full Access" permission before they can use the network. Our keyboards use Full Access solely to:

• Send the text you explicitly submit to AI actions to our AI service provider and return the result;
• Enable device features iOS restricts for keyboards without Full Access (such as haptic feedback);
• Share your settings and subscription status between the main App and the keyboard, locally on your device.

Without Full Access, the keyboard continues to work for regular typing; only AI features and certain device features are unavailable.

2A.4 History (Stored on Your Device Only)

• If the App offers a history feature and you enable it, AI results are stored locally on your device only, in the App's shared on-device storage.
• History is never uploaded to our servers and is not accessible to us.
• You can turn history off or clear it at any time from the keyboard or App settings, and it is removed when you delete the App.

2A.5 Secure Fields

iOS automatically disables custom keyboards in secure text fields (such as password fields). Our keyboards therefore cannot see or access anything you enter into such fields.

3. HOW WE USE YOUR INFORMATION

We use the collected information for the following purposes:

3.1 Service Provision

• To provide and deliver the App's AI-powered generation services (images, videos, and text).
• To process your Input Content and generate Output Content according to your requests.
• To manage your account, subscriptions, and in-app purchases.
• To provide customer support and respond to your inquiries.

3.2 Service Improvement

• To analyze usage patterns and improve the App's features and functionality.
• To monitor and analyze App performance, identify technical issues, and fix bugs.
• To develop new features and services.
• To conduct research and analytics (using aggregated, anonymized data only).

3.3 Communication

• To send you important updates about the App, including changes to our Terms or Privacy Policy.
• To provide subscription renewal reminders and payment confirmations.
• To send promotional communications (only with your consent, where required by law).

3.4 Legal and Security

• To detect, prevent, and address fraud, security issues, or technical problems.
• To enforce our Terms of Use and protect our rights and property.
• To comply with legal obligations and respond to lawful requests from authorities.

4. THIRD-PARTY SERVICES AND DATA SHARING

We use trusted third-party services to operate and improve our Apps. These services may have access to your information only to perform tasks on our behalf and are obligated to protect your data. The services used depend on the App. The providers named below are those currently used; we may replace or add providers from time to time, in which case any new provider will be subject to substantially similar data protection commitments and this Privacy Policy will be updated.

4.1 AI Processing

• Image and video generation: Photos and videos you upload in Apps with image/video generation features are currently processed through Replicate's API (including the Gemini AI model) and, for certain features, open-source models from Stability AI. Replicate processes content according to strict data processing agreements and does not retain uploaded content after processing is complete. Learn more at https://replicate.com/privacy
• AI text features: Text you explicitly submit to AI actions in Apps with AI writing or keyboard features is currently processed by OpenAI's API, accessed through a secure proxy layer. Content submitted via OpenAI's API is not used to train OpenAI's models. Learn more at https://openai.com/policies/api-data-usage-policies

4.2 Payment Processing

• Apple App Store: All payment processing, subscription management, and transaction handling is performed by Apple. We do not have access to your payment card information. Apple's privacy practices are governed by their Privacy Policy.

4.3 Subscription Management

• RevenueCat: We use RevenueCat to manage in-app subscriptions, track subscription status, and handle subscription-related features. RevenueCat processes subscription data according to their Privacy Policy available at https://www.revenuecat.com/privacy

4.4 Analytics and Performance
