Information you share with us or give us permission to obtain

When you create an account we collect the information you provide us through text fields, such as your first and last name, email address, username, and password. We also require data about your location, which we approximate from your IP address or device settings. We use all of this to securely set up your account and provide our services to you.

You may also have the option to share demographic information about yourself, such as your gender, age, and preferred language, which we collect to make Text on Photo more relevant to you.

We also collect visual information through the images that you post to our services, including your profile photos.

With your permission (on download or within one of our apps), we may access and store your device's contact list to help you find your friends on Text on Photo, invite them to Text on Photo, or to share your content with them. If you connect your Facebook, Instagram, or other third-party accounts to Text on Photo, we use information from those accounts (like your user name, friends, or contacts) for the same purpose. You can choose to stop sharing that information with us at any time by going to Facebook, Instagram, or other third-party account and removing our access.

We may also collect information about others if you use Text on Photo to upload, share or distribute content that contains information about them, including their name, image, and contact information. With your prior explicit consent, we may also collect information about others from third party platforms such as social media sites, for example when you log in to Text on Photo using the login information of other social media sites.

We also get technical information when you use Text on Photo

When you use a website or mobile application like ours, certain internet and electronic network activity information gets created and logged automatically. These are the types of technical information we collect:

Log data.

Our servers passively keep an electronic record of your interactions with our services, which we call "log data". For example, when you visit our website, sign into our services, or browse content, we collect data about these interactions that includes where you navigate within our website and apps, your IP address, browser type and settings, the date and time of your visit, search terms, which elements of our site and services you use the most, device data, and cookie data. We use log data to operate our services, maintain security, ensure reliable performance, and improve your experience on Text on Photo.

Cookie data.

We use "cookies" and similar technologies to collect log data and operate our services. You can learn more about how we use cookies in "cookies" below.

Device data.

We collect and combine data about the devices you use to access Text on Photo, and data about your device usage and activity.

Metadata of visual information.

We collect the metadata linked to your content. For example, your images may be accompanied by additional content like a hashtag (e.g., to mark keywords), comments, or a geotag. This makes your content more searchable by others and more interactive. If you geotag your photo or tag your photo using others' APIs, then the latitude and longitude coordinates may be stored with the photo and may be searchable (e.g., through a location or map feature) if you make your photo publicly viewable.

TrueDepth API.

If you have an Apple iOS device and use the camera function with our services, we may automatically collect data about the spatial positioning of a person’s head or face within an image frame using Apple’s TrueDepth API. We use this data in real time so you can apply effects and use other editing tools. None of the data collected via TrueDepth API ever leaves your device, it isn’t persistently stored on your device, and it isn’t shared with third parties.

How we use the information we collect, and legal bases for use

We process your information:

To fulfill a contract, or take steps linked to a contract, including:

Receive, process, and confirm your subscription or registration, and communicate with you about your account.

Promote your Text on Photo account for greater discoverability.

Understand how you use the service, to create a better experience for you and other users. This includes making inferences, like what content you may be interested in, based on how you use the service. For example, if you frequently save illustrations of penguins to your collections, we may infer you have a preference for graphic art over photographic content, or that you are interested in flightless birds.
