The Company ensures that all data is processed in accordance with the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018. Where users are located in the European Union, the processing of personal data is also carried out in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (EU GDPR).

02. Data We Collect

We collect and process the information necessary to operate our platform and provide users with access to AI-powered video and image generation services. This includes your name, email address, phone number, country of residence, and any other details you choose to provide.

We collect only the payment-related information required to manage transactions, such as transaction identifiers, billing details, currency, purchase amount and refund status. Card payments are processed exclusively by a licensed third-party payment service provider using the Visa and Mastercard networks with 3-D Secure authentication. The Company does not collect or store complete payment card numbers, card verification codes (CVV/CVC) or other sensitive card credentials — these are handled directly by PCI-DSS-compliant payment providers who comply with the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.

The Company does not act as a payment institution and does not hold or control customer funds. Payment processing is conducted through secure channels by regulated third-party providers who ensure the protection of payment information from unauthorized access or loss.

By using our platform, you consent to the processing of payment data by third-party providers in accordance with their privacy policies and compliance standards.

03. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to operate and improve the platform, provide users with access to AI tools for generating videos and images, and manage interactions within the platform. This includes processing registrations, managing applications, and providing customer support.

Your data helps us process secure payments, send important account updates, and improve the platform’s functionality and reliability. We may also use your data to fulfill legal obligations and prevent fraud or misuse of the system.

In this role, we determine how and why your data is processed to ensure the secure and efficient management of your account.

04. Use of User Content and AI Training

Any content created, uploaded, or generated by users on the platform is processed solely for the purpose of providing the requested service, such as AI-based image or video generation. This content remains under the user’s control and is not used for unrelated purposes.

We do not use user-generated content, prompts, or personal data to train, retrain, or improve AI models. All user content is processed exclusively for the purpose it was submitted for and is not used for any other purpose, including AI training.

Where personal data is included in the prompts, source files, or creative briefs you upload, the Company acts strictly as a Data Processor, operating on your instructions. You, the User, are the Data Controller for such content and ensure that you have the necessary legal basis to process it.
