Privacy
Policy.
Welcome to StylistAI. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our mobile application and web service (collectively, the "Service").
By using StylistAI, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. If you do not agree with our policies and practices, please do not use our Service.
Last Updated: November 16, 2025 · Effective Date: November 16, 20251. Information We Collect
Personal Information You Provide
- Account Information: email address (required for account creation and authentication), automatically generated user ID, and your password (encrypted and securely stored).
- Photos & Content: photos you upload for outfit generation, preferences you specify (budget, season, style preferences), and outfit history and saved outfits.
Automatically Collected Information
- Usage Data: number of outfits generated, features accessed within the app, session duration and frequency, and subscription tier and status.
- Device Information: device type and model (iOS, Android, or web browser), operating system version, app version, device identifiers (for analytics and troubleshooting), and IP address (temporarily for security purposes).
- Transaction Data: purchase history, receipt validation data (encrypted), and payment provider information (processed by Apple or Google; we do not store credit card details).
Information from Third Parties
We receive verification data from the Apple App Store and Google Play Store to validate your subscription purchases. This data includes purchase receipts and subscription status but NOT your payment card details.
2. How We Use Your Information
Face Data Usage: Our app allows users to upload photos that may contain their face in order to generate personalized outfit recommendations. The app does not collect, store, analyze, or extract biometric identifiers or any form of face geometry. The only face-related data we handle is the photo the user chooses to upload, and this image is processed solely for generating outfit suggestions.
The uploaded photo is sent securely to our image-processing server and is never used for facial recognition, identity verification, or training AI models. The image is not shared with third parties, and is not retained after the outfit generation process is complete. Photos are automatically deleted from our servers within 24 hours, and users may delete their image at any time within the app.
All processing is done only to generate the requested outfit recommendations, and the image is never repurposed. We do not use, store, or retain any biometric facial data, nor do we perform facial detection beyond simple object identification required to position clothing items. The image itself is the only data handled, and it is deleted shortly after processing.

3. How We Share Your Information
We do NOT sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. We only share your data in the following limited circumstances:
Service Providers
- AI Processing Partners: we use Perplexity AI to generate outfit recommendations. Only anonymized or pseudonymized data is shared when possible. Photos are processed securely and temporarily; they are not stored by third-party AI providers.

- Payment Processors: Apple App Store and Google Play Store process all in-app purchases. We do not have access to your payment card details; we only receive confirmation of successful transactions.
Affiliate Partners
When you click on product links in generated outfits, we may earn a small commission from Amazon through the Amazon Associates Program (affiliate tag: tag=stylistaillc-20). Amazon may collect browsing data per their own privacy policy; we have no control over this. We do NOT share your personal information with Amazon.
Legal Requirements & Business Transfers
We may disclose your information if required by law or in response to valid legal processes, government or law enforcement requests, or emergency situations involving threats to safety or security. If StylistAI is involved in a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, your information may be transferred; we will provide notice before your data becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
