Personal Information
Personal Information means your personal information like name, address, phone number, and email address that can be used to identify you. Apart from these, there are other types of personal information, for example, a unique identifier associated with your device, or an individual IP address assigned to your device when you connect to the internet.

Non-personal Information
Anonymous information means non-personal information that cannot be used to identify you. Such information includes your device's make and model, version of your operating system, connectivity status and a log of app usage (for example, what steps you took inside the app, and how long it took).

What Information We Collect, How and Why

To allow your to use all features of the App, we need to collect certain information while you are using the it.

Personally Identifiable Information

When you send us feedback using the feedback form or contact us by email, you may choose to disclose your email address and name. We collect your email to reply to your message and communicate with you about the changes we made in the app in the future.
Some parts of the App may depend on our online service to work. An example of such a section is the feature that automatically deletes the background from your photo. You may choose to upload your photo to our servers for editing. We remove geolocation data and attempt to blur out faces from all images before uploading it to our service.
Apart from the data that you voluntarily send to us, the App also collects some information while you are using it. When you upload your photo, we automatically receive information like your public IP address and store it in our server logs.

Non-Personally Identifiable Information

While sending us feedback using the feedback form or contact us by email, you may also choose to send anonymous log data attached to the message. The log data is used to reproduce the problem you described, by running the App on a device similar to yours and taking the same steps. Reproducing the problem helps us quickly find any issues and fix them.
The app makes use of a few third-party services to display ads, update the data in the background, and to observe how people use the App. Here is the list of third parties services used inside the App that may collect information from you and your device.
