This Privacy Policy describes the privacy practices of BiDi in connection with the BiDi mobile application (the “App”)
WELCOME TO BiDi’S PRIVACY POLICY!
If you decide not to read this entire Privacy Policy, we want you to walk away with a few key points about BiDi’s privacy practices:
- The App is a photo editor that allows users to edit portraits based on neural network technology that automatically generates highly realistic facial transformations. So, to provide editing portrait functionalities for users, we need to save portraits data in BiDi’s database.
- We use third-party cloud providers – specifically, Naver Cloud Platform and Amazon Web Services – to process and edit photographs.
- The App only uploads to the cloud(AWS S3) the photographs that you specifically select for editing.
- Photographs are temporarily cached on the cloud servers during the editing process, and encrypted using a key stored locally on your mobile device.
- We do not use the photographs you provide when you use the App for any reason other than to provide you with the portrait editing functionality of the App.
If you have any questions about our privacy practices, please email [email protected]
PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT
When you use the App, we may collect information about you, including:
- Photographs you provide when you use the App, via your camera or camera roll (if you have granted us permission to access your camera or camera roll), the in-App internet search functionality, or your social media account (if you choose to connect your social media account). We obtain only the specific images you chose to modify using the App; we do not collect your photo albums even if you grant us your access to them. Please note that while we do not require or request any metadata attached to the photographs you upload, metadata (including, for example, geotags) may be associated with your photographs by default. We take steps to delete any metadata that may be associated with a photograph you provide when you use the App.
- Registering/signing up in the Services and using our Products. your gender and birth date can be used for save preferences, select areas of interest, and transaction history. The overarching purpose of the collection and use of this data is to determine, based on this information, the user's preferred learning direction for the neural network (i.e., the implementation direction of the AI editing function).
- App usage information, such as information about how you use the App and interact with us, including your preferred language, the date and time when you first installed the App and the date and time you last used the App.
- Social media information, if you choose to login to the App via a third-party platform or social media network (for example, KakaoTalk), or otherwise connect your account on the third-party platform or network to the App. We may collect information from that platform or network, such as your social media alias, first and last name, number of “friends” on the social media platform. Our collection and processing of the information we obtain from social media platforms is governed by the requirements these social media platforms impose on us in their relevant terms and conditions.
- Device data, such as your computer and mobile device operating system type and version number, manufacturer and model, device ID, push tokens, Google Advertising ID, Apple ID for Advertising, browser type, screen resolution, IP address (and the associated country in which you are located), the website you visited before visiting our Site; and other information about the device you are using to visit the App.

This information may be collected on our Site using cookies, browser web storage (also known as locally stored objects, or “LSOs”), web beacons, and similar technologies. We may collect this information directly or through our use of third-party software development kits (“SDKs”). SDKs may enable third parties to collect information directly from our App.
- We use TrueDepth API technologies. The only use of this information is to provide valuable user features. None of the information collected by the TrueDepth API ever leaves the user’s device. We do not share information with third parties, do not store or process in any other way the data which we accessed and used via TrueDepth API.
