AI Tattoo Generator - InkGenie — Privacy Policy
Effective Date: August 10, 2026
AI Tattoo Generator - InkGenie ("the App") is developed by Mobile Card Games & Travel Apps LLC. This Privacy Policy explains what data the App collects, how it is used, and how your privacy is protected.
1. Data We Collect
The App collects the following data that you provide directly:
- Tattoo descriptions: The text prompts and style choices you enter to describe the tattoo design you want.
- Reference images (optional): A photo you may choose from your photo library to give the AI visual inspiration for your design.
- Skin preview photos: A photo of the body part where you want to preview a tattoo, taken with your camera or chosen from your library. These photos are processed entirely on your device and are never uploaded anywhere.
- Purchase information: Transaction records for in-app credit purchases, managed by Apple and RevenueCat.
The App does not collect your name, email address, location, advertising identifiers, or any other personal information. It contains no analytics SDKs, no advertising SDKs, and no tracking of any kind, and it does not use Apple's App Tracking Transparency framework because it does not track you.
2. How We Use Your Data
Your data is used solely to generate and preview tattoo designs:
- Design generation: Your text description of the tattoo is sent to OpenAI's image generation API. If you attach an optional reference image, that photo is resized and compressed on your device and sent along with it as inspiration for the design.
- Skin preview: The "Preview on Skin" feature composites your generated design over your skin photo entirely on your device. The skin photo never leaves your device; it is only saved to your photo library if you explicitly tap Save.
- Reference and skin photos are not intended to contain faces, but because you can pick any photo, one may incidentally include a person. Such photos are handled exactly the same way — no facial recognition or identity analysis is performed, and skin preview photos are never uploaded at all.
- Your photos and prompts are used for nothing else — no advertising, no profiling, no model training by us.
3. Third-Party Data Sharing
Your data is shared with only two third parties:
- OpenAI (openai.com): Your tattoo description — and your reference image, only if you attach one — are sent to OpenAI's image API to generate the design. The request travels over an encrypted HTTPS connection through AIProxy (aiproxy.com), a secure API relay that keeps the API key off your device. Per OpenAI's API data-usage policy, data sent through the API is not used to train their models.
- RevenueCat (revenuecat.com): Manages in-app credit purchases. Payment is processed entirely by Apple — the App never sees your payment card details. RevenueCat receives only the App Store transaction information and a random, anonymous app-user ID — never your name, email, or photos.
We do not sell, rent, or share your data with anyone else.
Abuse prevention: every AI request the App sends also includes your device's Apple identifier-for-vendor and an Apple DeviceCheck token. These are used solely to prevent abuse and rate-limit AI requests; they are not linked to your name or identity and are not used for advertising or tracking.
4. Data Storage and Retention
- On your device: Your saved tattoo designs, prompts, credit balance, and app preferences are stored locally on your device. Skin preview composites are saved to your photo library only when you tap Save.
- In your iCloud: Your saved tattoo designs (images, prompts, and styles) are synced across your devices via Apple's iCloud Documents storage in your private iCloud account, tied to your Apple ID. Your credit balance and basic app state (such as designs created and first-launch date) are synced via Apple's iCloud key-value storage. We cannot access any of this iCloud data.
- On our servers: We do not operate servers that store your designs, photos, or any personal data. Prompts and reference images exist in transit only, during the encrypted request to OpenAI.
- Deletion: You can delete saved designs within the App at any time; uninstalling the App removes all locally stored data.
5. Data Security
All data leaving your device is transmitted over encrypted HTTPS connections. API keys are protected through the AIProxy relay service and are never embedded directly in the App.
6. Your Rights
You have the right to:
- Delete your saved tattoo designs at any time within the App.
- Remove all App data by uninstalling the App.
- Deny camera or photo library permissions in iOS Settings; the skin preview and reference image features simply won't have access to your photos.
Depending on where you live, privacy laws such as the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CCPA/CPRA) give you rights over your personal data, including the rights to know, access, correct, and delete it. Because we do not hold your data on servers we operate, there is typically nothing for us to access or delete on request — deleting the App deletes your data. Where the App does process data in transit, or a third-party service described above collects data, you may contact us at the email below to exercise your rights, and we will respond as required by applicable law.
7. Children's Privacy
The App is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect data from children under 13. In some regions, including the European Union, a higher minimum age applies to consent for data processing; the same statement applies there — we do not knowingly collect data from anyone under the applicable age.
8. Data Breach Notification
In the unlikely event of a data breach affecting user data on any system we operate, we will notify affected users as required by applicable law.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be reflected by updating the "Effective Date" at the top of this page.
