Magiq is a prompt-first photo editor. We take privacy seriously. This Policy explains what we collect, how we use it, and your choices.

1) Summary (plain English)

• On-device by default. Your projects/versions are stored locally. If you uninstall, local app data is removed. Exports saved to Photos remain.
• Edits are processed, then purged. We send the selected image and prompt securely to our processing providers only to create your result. We don't keep a cloud library.
• No model training. We never use your photos or prompts to train AI models and configure providers to do the same.
• Short, operational retention at providers. Some may cache briefly (~24h) and/or keep limited abuse-monitoring logs (~30 days). Not for training; we minimize/disable where possible.
• No data selling. No ad profiles. Minimal analytics only.

2) Scope & who we are

This Policy applies to the Magiq mobile apps and our websites at magiqapp.com (the “Services”). Controller: Pyxel Bytes (Biel Carpi), Andorra. Contact: privacy@magiqapp.com.

3) What we collect

You provide

• User Content: photos/videos you edit and the prompts you type (per edit session).
• Contact info (optional): name, email (e.g., support).
• Purchases: subscription/top-up receipts from Apple/Google.

Collected automatically

• Usage data (screens, features, timestamps, device/app version, locale).
• Identifiers (app-instance ID; if signed in, a user ID).
• Diagnostics (not linked): crash/performance metrics.

App Store Privacy alignment. Linked: Purchases; User Content (submitted for processing); Usage Data; Contact Info (if provided); Identifiers. Not linked: Diagnostics.

4) How we use data (purposes)

• Provide the Service (perform edits, variants, export).
• Payments & credits (validate purchases, minimal credit ledger, restore access).
• Reliability & safety (crash/perf, fraud/abuse prevention).
• Support & notices; legal compliance.

Legal bases (where applicable): contract, legitimate interests, legal obligation.

5) How editing works & retention

• On Generate, Magiq sends the selected image/prompt and options to trusted providers to create your result.
• Our servers: short-lived delivery links; transient copies deleted shortly after delivery.
• Providers: may briefly cache or keep limited abuse logs. Not for training; minimized/disabled where possible.

6) Storage locations

• Your device: projects/versions; exports in Photos (if enabled).
• Cloud (transient): processing and short-lived delivery.

7) Sharing & service providers

We do not sell data. We share with service providers under contract/instructions (infrastructure, image processing no training, analytics/diagnostics, app stores/payments, support). Current list available on request at privacy@magiqapp.com.

8) Cookies, SDKs, analytics

• Minimal analytics/diagnostics to improve reliability and performance.
• No third-party ad tracking on iOS. Android Free tier may show one rewarded video for a weekly free generation.

9) Your choices & controls

• Manage Photos/Camera permissions in system settings.
• Delete local data via in-app controls or by uninstalling.
• Exports saved to Photos remain outside Magiq.

10) Security

We use industry-standard safeguards: encryption in transit, access controls, least-privilege, short retention for transient copies, and provider contracts that prohibit training. No method is 100% secure.

11) Retention

• Local projects: stay until you delete or uninstall.
• Transient processing copies: deleted shortly after processing/delivery.
• Provider cache/logs: brief operational windows only (e.g., ~24h cache/~30 days logs).
• Purchases/accounting: per law. Diagnostics/analytics: per provider defaults.

12) International transfers

We may process data outside your country with appropriate safeguards.

13) Your rights

Depending on region, you may access, correct, delete, port, and object/restrict processing. Andorra: contact APDA or privacy@magiqapp.com. EU/EEA/UK: your supervisory authority. California: we do not sell/share for cross-context ads.

14) Children

Not directed to children under 4 (or minimum age in your region).

15) Changes

We’ll notify of material changes in-app or on our site and update the date.
