Yoki

Introduction

Welcome to Yoki, the premium photo editing tool built for creators who chase distinct, expressive aesthetics, specializing in our signature fractured beauty style powered by cutting-edge physics-based light refraction modeling and advanced polygon processing algorithms. We know your personal data and creative content are incredibly valuable, so this Privacy Policy outlines exactly how we collect, use, store, and protect your information when you use our mobile application and related services.

By downloading, accessing, or using Yoki, you agree to the terms outlined in this policy.

Information We Collect

Information You Provide Directly

• Contact information: If you reach out to us for support, feedback, or inquiries, we may collect your email address or other contact details you choose to share with us.
• User content: The photos and images you upload into Yoki for editing, as well as the edited outputs you generate using our tools.
• Optional account information: If you choose to create an optional account to sync your preset preferences, we may collect a username and associated login details you provide.

Information We Collect Automatically

• Usage data: Anonymous data about how you interact with Yoki, including which editing filters, presets, and tools you use most frequently, processing time for edits, and feature engagement metrics. This data helps us improve our light refraction models and polygon processing algorithms to deliver better performance.
• Device information: Basic information about your mobile device, including operating system version, device model, app version, and crash reports, to help us troubleshoot bugs and optimize compatibility.

How We Use Your Information

We only use your information for purposes that directly improve your Yoki experience and deliver the high-quality editing functionality you expect from us:

• Process your edits: The vast majority of photo processing happens directly on your local device, meaning your original and edited photos never leave your device unless you explicitly choose to share them or save them to optional cloud storage. We do not access or review your personal photos for any purpose unrelated to delivering the editing functionality.
• Improve our service: Anonymous usage data is used to refine our physics-based light refraction technology, optimize our fractured beauty style presets, fix performance issues, and develop new features that match creator demand.
• Provide support: If you contact us with questions or issues, we use your provided contact information to respond to your inquiry and resolve any problems you encounter with the app.
• Communicate updates: We may occasionally send you notifications about new feature launches, preset drops, or important service changes, which you can opt out of at any time in your device settings.
• Protect our service: We use aggregated, anonymous data to detect and prevent fraudulent activity, abuse, and security threats to Yoki and our user base.

Important note: You retain full copyright and ownership of all original and edited images you create using Yoki. We never claim any ownership rights to your creative work, and we will never reproduce, distribute, or use your edited content for marketing or any other commercial purpose without your explicit written consent.

Information Sharing and Disclosure

We are committed to protecting your privacy, and we will never sell, rent, or lease your personal information or creative content to third parties for any reason. We only share your information in the following limited circumstances:

• With your explicit consent: We will only share your information if you specifically ask us to or agree to the sharing.
• Service providers: We may share limited, anonymous usage and device data with trusted third-party service providers who help us operate Yoki, such as crash analytics tools and cloud hosting providers. These providers are bound by strict confidentiality agreements and are not permitted to use your data for any purpose other than providing services to us. They never have access to your personal photos or creative content.
• Legal requirements: We may disclose your information if we are required to do so by applicable legal obligations, or if we believe in good faith that such disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of other users.

Your Rights and Choices

You have full control over your data when using Yoki:

• You can delete all local editing data, saved presets, and cached content directly from your device at any time through the app settings.
• You can request access to, correction of, or deletion of any personal information we may hold about you by contacting us at the email address listed at the end of this policy.
• You can opt out of non-essential communications from us at any time by following the unsubscribe link in any email we send, or by adjusting your notification settings in the app.
• You can choose to deny Yoki access to your device photo library at any time through your device settings, though this will limit the app's ability to import photos for editing.

Data Security

We take the security of your data very seriously, and we implement industry-standard technical and organizational measures to protect your information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.

Since most photo processing happens locally on your device, your original and edited images remain under your control at all times unless you choose to share them externally. For any data that is transmitted to our servers, we use end-to-end encryption to protect your information during transfer.

While we take all reasonable steps to protect your data, no method of electronic storage or transmission is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Children's Privacy

Yoki is not intended for use by individuals under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under 13, we will immediately delete that information from our systems. If you believe we may have collected information from a child under 13, please contact us using the email address below.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to our practices, legal requirements, or new features added to Yoki. When we make changes, we will update the effective date at the top of this policy and notify you of the changes through an in-app notification before the new policy takes effect. Your continued use of Yoki after the new policy takes effect constitutes your acceptance of the changes.
