At Pixeva, we take your privacy seriously. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our AI-powered photo recognition service. Please read this policy carefully to understand our practices regarding your personal data.
Information We Collect
We collect information you provide directly to us, such as when you create an account, upload photos, or contact us for support.
Personal Information:
- •Name and email address
- •Account credentials
- •Payment information (processed securely by our payment providers, currently Stripe and, where we use it, Paddle; we never receive or store your full card number)
- •Photos you upload to our platform
Automatically Collected Information:
- •Device information and IP address
- •Browser type and settings

How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:

- •Send you technical notices and support messages
- •Respond to your comments and questions
- •Detect and prevent fraud and abuse

AI Processing
Our facial recognition technology processes photos to identify faces and enable photo matching. Face data is encrypted and stored securely, and is automatically deleted when you delete your event or account.
Information Sharing
We do not sell your personal information. We may share information in the following circumstances:
- •With your consent: We share information when you direct us to do so
- •Service providers: We work with trusted third parties who assist in operating our services
- •Payment providers: Payments are processed by Stripe and, where we use it, by Paddle (Paddle.com), which then acts as merchant of record. They receive the details needed to take payment, issue invoices and handle tax and fraud checks, and act as independent controllers of that payment data under their own privacy notices (https://www.paddle.com/legal/privacy and https://stripe.com/privacy)
- •Legal requirements: We may disclose information if required by law
- •Business transfers: In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets
Event Sharing
When you share an event with guests, they can view photos from that event. Guests can only see photos they appear in when using the selfie search feature.
Data Security
We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data:
- •All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256)
- •Face embeddings are stored separately from photos
- •Regular security audits and penetration testing
- •Access controls and authentication requirements
- •Secure data centers with SOC 2 compliance
We cannot guarantee absolute security, but we continuously work to protect your information.
Data Retention
We retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide services:
| Data Type | Retention Period |
|---|---|
| Account data | Until you delete your account |
| Event data | Lifetime storage (Permanent, or until deleted by event owner) |
| Face data | Deleted when event is deleted |
