Privacy
This page explains how StylePick handles your photos and information.
How your photo is processed
Your photo does not stay inside your browser. The actual path is: browser → StylePick server → the configured AI provider → result → browser. Photos currently go to Google Gemini. If image generation is configured to use another provider (xAI Grok Imagine), photos may go to xAI instead. At every step the photo is used only for the analysis and the image generation; the StylePick server holds it in memory only while the request is being processed and does not write it to its own storage.
About the AI providers' internal handling
Once your photo has been sent to an AI provider, StylePick cannot verify or guarantee how that provider retains or uses it internally. We can only speak for StylePick's own handling. For the providers' terms, please refer to the terms of service and privacy policies they publish.
What StylePick does not store
The StylePick database has no field for your original photo or the generated image. The image data (base64) of neither is written to our server logs. In your browser we do not write your photo to persistent storage (localStorage, sessionStorage, IndexedDB) — it is held in memory only while the page is open, and disappears when you start with a new photo or reload.
What StylePick does store
To manage usage limits, share bonuses and purchases, we store a random device identifier, the date, the request type, and payment order details (order id, payment reference, amount, approval time) in our database. Personally identifying information such as your name, email or phone number, and your photos, are not part of this. To prevent abuse and limit request rates, we do not store your IP address; instead we convert it into a daily-rotating one-way cryptographic identifier and keep that, together with request counts, for up to 3 days, after which it is deleted automatically.
External services
We currently use the Google Gemini API for the photo analysis, the direction recommendations and the image generation. We do not send photos to xAI or OpenAI at this time. If image generation is configured to use xAI's Grok Imagine API, the photo you provide and the information required to generate the image may be sent to xAI, and xAI's published API data-handling policy then governs how that data is retained and used. If image generation is instead configured to use OpenAI's image API (GPT Image), the same information may be sent to OpenAI, and OpenAI's published API data-handling policy then applies. To run the service we also use hosting (Vercel) and a database (Supabase). To improve the service we use Vercel Web Analytics, without cookies, to collect statistics such as the pages visited, the referrer, the country and the device and browser type, together with in-app events (for example, viewing prices or sharing). These statistics do not include your name, contact details or photos and are not used to identify you. Payments are processed by Toss Payments (a licensed payment gateway). Sensitive payment details such as the card number and CVC are collected directly by the payment provider; StylePick does not collect or store them. You can ask us through the contact channel which data each service receives.
What stays in your browser
A randomly generated device identifier (a random UUID) is kept in your browser's localStorage and in a cookie. If you have opened a checkout, payment identifiers (order number, cycle id, transaction id, product id, payment provider name) are kept in localStorage — not in cookies — so that you are not charged twice. So that we can finish a result you paid for but did not receive, the choices you made before paying (purpose, impression, direction) are kept alongside them. Nothing derived from your photo is included. Those choices are kept for at most 7 days, and are deleted sooner if the server confirms that nothing is left to deliver for that payment. The payment identifiers are kept — to prevent double charges and to check the payment's status — until, the next time you open the service in this browser, the server confirms that payment has reached a final state; they are then deleted from localStorage. Clearing your browser's site data removes them sooner. Your photo, the generated result, and AI-written text are not kept in browser storage. So that you do not have to look up your order number when requesting a refund, the order numbers of completed payments (the latest 5) are kept in this browser's localStorage for up to 30 days. They are not sent to the server separately and are used only to pre-fill the refund form.
No account required
StylePick can be used without creating an account, and we do not separately collect personally identifying information such as your name. If you request a refund, however, we receive the email address you enter for our reply and the details of your request (order number, reason, message), and store them only to process the refund and answer your inquiry.
Usage identifier
That device identifier is sent to the StylePick server with your requests so we can count daily usage, share bonuses and purchases per device. The identifier itself is not linked to your name or contact details and is used only for usage and payment accounting.
Single-person photo policy
During the AI diagnosis we check how many people appear in the photo and whether the face is visible enough, but we do not perform identity recognition or facial recognition. Photos with multiple people or no person never reach generation — a notice is shown immediately instead.
Retention and deletion
Payment order information and refund request records are kept as required by Korea's Act on the Consumer Protection in Electronic Commerce — records of payment and supply for 5 years, and records of consumer complaints or dispute handling for 3 years — and are deleted without delay afterwards. Hashed IP values are deleted automatically within 3 days. Per-device usage records are kept to count usage and purchases; they have no fixed automatic deletion date and are deleted on request (records tied to payments are kept for the legal periods above). Electronic records are deleted in a way that cannot be recovered.
Your rights
You may request access to, correction of, deletion of, or suspension of processing of your personal information at any time. Write to help@stylepick.kr; after confirming it is you (for example by order number) we will act without delay, and if a law requires us to keep certain information we will tell you why and for how long.
