PhotoFixr

Privacy Policy

Effective date: June 7, 2026 · PhotoFixr, by Lilin Systems

PhotoFixr helps you restore old, damaged, and blurry photos using AI. We built it to be private by default: you don't need an account, we don't sell your data, and the photos you restore are not used to train AI models or kept after processing. This policy explains, in plain language, what happens to your information when you use the app.

1. Information we process

Photos you choose

When you select a photo to restore, that image is processed to perform the restoration you requested (such as Restore, Colorize, Unblur, or Descratch). The restoration runs on a secure third-party AI service (see “Third-party processors” below). Your photo is used only to produce your restored result and is not used to train AI models. It is not retained after processing and is deleted once your restored image is returned to your device.

A non-identifying device identifier

To enforce free-tier limits, deliver any credits or subscription you've purchased, and prevent abuse, the app uses a non-identifying, app-generated device or installation identifier. This identifier is not your name, email, phone number, or Apple ID, and we do not use it to track you across other apps or websites.

2. What we do not collect

  • We do not require you to create an account or provide a name, email address, or phone number.
  • We do not collect your contacts, location, browsing history, or photo library beyond the specific images you choose to restore.
  • We do not see or store your payment card details — purchases are handled entirely by Apple (see below).
  • We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use your photos for advertising or model training.

3. How your photos are restored (third-party AI processing)

The actual restoration is performed by Replicate, a cloud service that runs AI models. When you restore a photo, the image is securely transmitted to Replicate solely to generate the restored result, then returned to you. Per our use of that service, your photos are not used to train models and are not retained after the restoration completes. We send only the photo and the processing options needed to fulfill your request — nothing that identifies you personally.

4. Purchases

PhotoFixr offers a free tier, an optional Pro subscription, and one-off credit packs. All purchases are processed by Apple through the App Store. Apple handles billing and payment information; we never receive or store your credit card or payment details. We receive only the information Apple provides to confirm an active subscription or completed purchase so we can unlock the corresponding features.

5. Analytics

We keep analytics minimal. Any diagnostic or usage information we collect is limited to aggregate, non-identifying signals used to keep the app stable and improve performance (for example, whether a restoration succeeded or failed). We do not build advertising profiles and do not track you across other companies' apps or websites.

6. Data retention

  • Photos: not retained after processing — deleted once your restored image is returned.
  • Device identifier & purchase status: retained only as long as needed to operate features such as free-tier limits, credits, and subscriptions.
  • Restored results: saved by you to your own device; we do not keep a copy.

7. Children's privacy

PhotoFixr is a general-audience app and is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your country). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take appropriate steps to address it.

8. Your rights

Because we don't maintain accounts or store the photos you restore, there is very little personal data to access or delete. You can remove the app and its locally stored data at any time by deleting PhotoFixr from your device. Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal information, or to object to certain processing. To exercise any of these rights, or to ask a question, email us at support@lilinsystems.xyz.

9. Third-party processors

We rely on a small number of trusted providers to operate PhotoFixr:

  • Apple — distributes the app and processes all purchases and subscriptions.
  • Replicate — runs the AI restoration on the photo you submit; does not use your photos to train models and does not retain them after processing.
  • Vercel — hosts this website and the lightweight redirect that sends you to the App Store.

Each provider processes information only as needed to deliver its part of the service.

10. Security

Photos are transmitted over encrypted connections during restoration. While no method of transmission or processing is completely secure, we use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information and limit it to what's strictly needed.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we'll revise the “Effective date” above and, for significant changes, provide a more prominent notice. Continued use of PhotoFixr after an update means you accept the revised policy.
