GlowPic
Privacy Policy
Last updated: 1 August 2026
GlowPic (“the app”) is a photo-editing app provided by GlowPic Labs
(“we”, “us”). This Privacy Policy explains what information the
app processes and why. By using GlowPic you agree to this policy.
In short: GlowPic is free, has no accounts and no sign-up, and
is funded by ads rather than payments. Most photo editing runs entirely on your
device. We do not sell your data. The only time a photo leaves your device is
when you choose an AI feature that needs cloud processing.
1. Information the app processes
- Photos and media you choose. When you pick or capture a
photo, the app loads it so you can edit it. Edited copies and your recent edits
are stored only on your device.
- AI feature uploads. AI Enhance and SuperScale cannot run on a
phone, so when you use them the selected photo is sent to our AI processing
provider (Replicate) to generate the result, which is then downloaded back to
your device. We do not use your photos to train AI models.
- Advertising data. GlowPic is free and funded entirely by
ads. We show a banner on the home screen and a short rewarded video before you
save a photo. Ads are served by Google AdMob, which collects device and
advertising identifiers to deliver and measure them. You can reset or delete
your advertising ID at any time in your device settings, and you can withdraw
or change your ad-personalisation consent from
Settings → Privacy options where that option is shown.
- Support messages. If you email us, we receive your email
address and whatever you choose to write.
We do not ask for your name, we have no login, and we do not
collect your contacts, precise location, or browsing history.
2. How we use information
- To provide and operate the photo-editing features.
- To serve and measure the ads that fund the app.
- To respond to your support requests.
3. On-device vs. cloud processing
Studio Enhance, Beauty, Filters, Background tools, Adjust, Crop and Text run
fully on your device — those photos never leave your phone. AI Enhance and
SuperScale require cloud processing and send the image to our provider, as
described in Section 4.
4. Third-party services
- Replicate — runs the AI models behind AI Enhance and
SuperScale. Images submitted to those features are processed on Replicate’s
servers. See the Replicate Privacy
Policy.
- Google AdMob (and its mediation partners, including
AppLovin) — serves the banner and rewarded ads and collects device /
advertising identifiers for advertising, analytics and fraud prevention. See the
Google Privacy Policy.
We share information with these providers only as needed to run the app. We do
not sell your personal information.
5. Data retention
- Photos you import, your edits and your recent-edit history are stored locally
on your device. Uninstalling the app, or clearing its data in your device
settings, removes them.
- Images sent for AI processing are used to produce your result and are not
retained by us; the processing provider may keep them briefly under its own
policy.
6. Your choices
- You choose which photos to open and which AI features to use.
- You can clear the app’s data or uninstall the app at any time to remove
local data.
- You can reset or limit your device’s advertising/analytics identifier in
your device settings. Where the applicable consent framework requires it, the
app also offers Settings → Privacy options so you can
review or withdraw your ad-personalisation choices at any time.
- For any privacy request or question, contact us at
glowpicapp@gmail.com.
7. Security
We use reasonable measures to protect information, and network requests use
encrypted (HTTPS) connections. However, no method of transmission or storage is
completely secure.
8. Children
GlowPic is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect
personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided us information,
contact us and we will delete it.
9. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. We will post the updated version on
this page and revise the “Last updated” date above.
