Privacy Policy
Last updated: February 2026
1. What We Collect
- Account information — your name, email address, and profile picture provided by Google when you sign in.
- Uploaded documents — the PDF files you upload are processed in memory to extract text. We do not store your PDF files on our servers.
- User-uploaded photos (custom avatar) — if you choose to upload a photo of yourself as a custom avatar, that image is temporarily stored on our servers solely for the purpose of generating your video. The image is transmitted to our AI video provider (D-ID) to animate your likeness. Once video generation is complete, we do not retain the original photo for any other purpose. You may request deletion of your uploaded image at any time by contacting us.
- Generated content — the scripts and video prompts you create are used solely to generate your videos. We do not retain them after processing.
- Usage data — we track credit usage per month to manage your subscription allowance.
- Payment information — payments are processed by LemonSqueezy. We store your subscription status but never see or store your credit card details.
