03How We Use Personal Data
Providing the Service

04How We Process Photos
Try On Photos
Try On Photos are uploaded only to generate virtual try on results. They are processed in memory or temporary storage, are not saved to your account unless you choose to save them, are not used for AI model training and are deleted automatically shortly after processing. Access is limited to automated systems. Human reviewers cannot access these photos through the normal Service workflow.
Saved Photos
If you save a photo in your Calendar, it becomes part of your content and remains in your account until you delete it. It may be displayed back to you within the Service. Saved Photos are not used for AI model training and are stored separately from temporary Try On Photos.
Processing location
Image processing and storage occur on secure servers in the European Union or through cloud providers that comply with European Economic Area requirements. We do not transfer photos outside the European Union unless adequate safeguards are in place, such as Standard Contractual Clauses.
05How Long We Store Data
Try On Photos
Photos used for virtual try on are deleted automatically after processing. They are normally deleted within a few hours and always within 24 hours after upload.
Saved Photos
Photos you save remain until you delete them or delete the related account.
Account data
Account data remains while the account is active. After account deletion, the data is deleted or made anonymous unless the law requires further retention.
Usage data and logs
Technical and usage data may be retained for up to twelve months for analytics, security monitoring and Service improvement.
Communications
Support communications may be retained for up to twenty four months to manage requests, maintain service quality and keep internal records.
Legal and compliance data
Certain data may be retained longer when required by legal, tax or regulatory obligations. We retain it only for the period required by law.
06Data Sharing
Service providers
We may share data with providers that support hosting, analytics, error monitoring, content delivery and email. These providers are bound by agreements designed to meet GDPR requirements.
Legal obligations
We may share data when required by law, regulators or court orders.
No sale of personal data
ViWear never sells personal data to third parties.

10Security Measures

These technologies may process limited technical data such as device identifiers, temporary session tokens and application interaction events. We use this data for secure authentication, communication with our services, aggregated usage analysis, performance monitoring, stability and error reporting.
13Account and Data Deletion
How to delete your account
You can delete your ViWear account at any time.
In the ViWear app: Open the ViWear app, go to Settings → Delete Account, and confirm your request.

Limited technical data, such as security or audit logs, may be retained for longer where strictly necessary to comply with legal obligations, prevent fraud or protect the integrity and security of the Service. We do not use retained data for other purposes.
