Last Updated: October 26, 2023

Welcome to Xinghui App, the revolutionary AI Photo Editor! We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring a safe and secure experience as you unleash your creativity with our advanced artificial intelligence tools. This Privacy Policy explains how Xinghui App AI Photo Editor (referred to as “Xinghui App,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, discloses, and protects your information when you use our mobile application and related services (collectively, the “Service”).

By downloading, installing, and using the Xinghui App, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. If you do not agree with the terms of this policy, please do not use the Xinghui App.

1. Information We Collect

To provide and improve our AI Photo Editor services, transforming your ordinary pictures into extraordinary masterpieces, we collect various types of information. We only collect information that is necessary for the proper functioning and enhancement of the Xinghui App.

Information You Provide Directly:

• User-Uploaded Photos: The core function of Xinghui App involves processing your photos. When you upload or select photos for editing, these images are temporarily processed by our AI algorithms to apply the requested enhancements (e.g., intelligent object removal, smart background changes, stunning artistic filters, precise color correction). We do NOT store your original or edited photos on our servers permanently after processing. They are deleted immediately upon completion of the editing task or after a very short period necessary for rendering the output, unless you explicitly choose to save them on your device.
• Feedback and Support: If you contact us for support, send us feedback, or participate in surveys, we may collect information you provide, such as your email address and the content of your message, to address your inquiries and improve our services.

Information Collected Automatically:

• Device Information: We collect information about the device you use to access the Xinghui App, including the device model, operating system version, unique device identifiers (e.g., Android Advertising ID), language settings, and mobile network information. This helps us optimize app performance and ensure compatibility.
• Usage Data: We collect data on how you interact with the Xinghui App. This includes information such as the features you use, the frequency and duration of your activities, performance data, and app crash reports. This data helps us understand user behavior, identify areas for improvement, and enhance the user experience.
• IP Address: We may collect your IP address to understand general geographic location, which helps us to localize content and analyze overall usage patterns, and for security purposes.

We do NOT collect any sensitive personal data such as your health information, financial information, racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, or sexual orientation.

2. How We Use Your Information

The information we collect is used primarily to operate, maintain, and improve the Xinghui App and its features. Specifically, we use your information for the following purposes:

• To Provide and Improve Service Functionality: To process your photos using our AI algorithms, apply sophisticated and intuitive editing features, and deliver the enhanced images back to you. This is the primary purpose for processing your uploaded photos.
• To Personalize Your Experience: To understand your preferences and provide a more customized and efficient photo editing experience, letting you focus purely on your artistic vision.
• For Analytics and Research: To monitor and analyze trends, usage, and activities in connection with our Service. This helps us understand how users engage with the app, identify popular features, and make data-driven decisions to improve Xinghui App.
• For Security and Fraud Prevention: To protect the integrity and security of the Xinghui App, detect and prevent fraudulent activities, and troubleshoot technical issues.
• To Communicate with You: To respond to your inquiries, provide customer support, and send you important updates or announcements related to the Service.

3. Sharing Your Information

We are committed to maintaining your trust, and we want you to understand when and with whom we may share the information we collect.

• Service Providers: We may engage third-party companies and individuals to facilitate our Service, provide the Service on our behalf, perform Service-related services (e.g., cloud hosting for temporary photo processing, analytics, maintenance services), or assist us in analyzing how our Service is used. These third parties have access to your information only to perform these tasks on our behalf and are obligated not to disclose or use it for any other purpose. They are bound by strict confidentiality obligations.
• Legal Requirements: We may disclose your information if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to (i) comply with a legal obligation, (ii) protect and defend our rights or property, (iii) prevent or investigate possible wrongdoing in connection with the Service, (iv) protect the personal safety of users of the Service or the public, or (v) protect against legal liability.
• Business Transfers: In the event that Xinghui App is involved in a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, your information may be transferred as a business asset. We will provide notice before your information is transferred and becomes subject to a different Privacy Policy.

We do NOT sell, rent, or trade your personal information, especially your photos, to third parties for their marketing or any other unrelated commercial purposes.

4. Data Retention

We retain your information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. Specifically:

• User-Uploaded Photos: Photos uploaded for editing are processed temporarily and are deleted from our servers immediately after the editing task is completed and the output is delivered to your device, or within a very short processing window. They are not stored permanently.
• Usage Data and Device Information: This data is retained for a longer period to analyze app performance, identify trends, and improve our services. This data is typically aggregated or anonymized where possible.
• Support Communications: Information related to support inquiries may be retained for a reasonable period to help us resolve subsequent issues and improve our customer service.

5. Cookies and Similar Technologies

The Xinghui App itself generally does not use “cookies” in the traditional web browsing sense. However, our third-party service providers (e.g., analytics providers) may use certain technologies, such as SDKs (Software Development Kits) or similar identifiers, to collect information automatically for app analytics, performance monitoring, and to understand user engagement. These technologies help us to improve the app experience and are subject to the privacy policies of those third-party providers.

The security of your information is important to us. We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect the information we collect from unauthorized access, use, alteration, and disclosure.
