Privacy Policy

01 Introduction

This Privacy Policy describes how Profile Picture Makers, available at profilepicturemakers.com, handles personal information in connection with our website and profile picture creation services.

This policy applies to visitors and users of the website, including people who browse the website, use available tools, upload images, submit an inquiry, or otherwise interact with our services. The website may link to external services or websites that have their own privacy practices; this policy does not govern those independent services.

02 Information We Collect

A. Information You Provide

When you contact us through the website, you may provide your name, email address, subject, and message content. Please avoid including sensitive personal information in your message unless it is necessary for your request.

B. Uploaded Images

You may select an image to use with the profile picture maker. The way an uploaded image is processed, transmitted, stored, accessed, shared, retained, or deleted depends on the website's actual technical implementation.

Before publication, Profile Picture Makers must confirm whether image processing occurs in the browser, on a server, or through another service; whether image data is stored; who may access it; whether processors receive it; and the applicable retention and deletion practices. This policy does not represent that images remain only in a browser or are deleted at any particular time unless those facts have been verified.

C. Information Collected Automatically

Depending on the hosting, security, analytics, and application configuration in use, the website may process technical information such as an IP address, browser type, device and operating-system information, pages viewed, referring website, access timestamps, and technical error information. The precise categories and purposes must reflect the live configuration.

D. Account and Subscription Information

If account, subscription, or paid features are introduced, the information collected for those services and the related processing purposes will be described in an updated policy. This policy does not state that subscription billing or account processing is currently active.

03 How We Use Information

Where applicable, information may be processed to operate the website and its features, process profile pictures, respond to support inquiries, investigate technical issues, protect the service, improve website performance, manage active accounts or subscriptions, and comply with legal obligations.

Profile Picture Makers should not use personal information for advertising, personalized marketing, or AI model training unless those activities are actually implemented and clearly disclosed in this policy.

05 Cookies and Similar Technologies

Cookies and similar technologies may be used where they are enabled by the website's actual configuration. They can support website functionality, security, preference settings, measurement, or other disclosed purposes.

Potential categories may include essential cookies, preference cookies, analytics cookies, and marketing cookies. Profile Picture Makers must identify which categories are actually used, which services set them, and whether consent is required in a visitor's region before publication.

You may be able to manage some cookies through browser settings. Browser controls do not necessarily replace any consent mechanism required by applicable law.

06 Third-Party Services

The website may rely on third parties for applicable operations such as hosting, content delivery, security, spam protection, analytics, email delivery, payment processing, or image processing. Only providers that are actually used should be identified in the final published policy.

Where a provider processes personal information for Profile Picture Makers, the policy should explain the relevant information-sharing practice and purpose. External websites linked from this website are governed by their own privacy notices.

07 Contact Form Information

The website's contact form requests a name, email address, subject, and an optional message. This information is collected to review and respond to inquiries and provide relevant support.

Whether form submissions are stored in WordPress or another system, and whether email delivery providers process the submission, depends on the active Contact Form 7, WordPress, hosting, and email configuration. These storage, delivery, and retention details must be verified before publication.

08 Legal Bases for Processing

Where the GDPR or UK GDPR applies, Profile Picture Makers may rely on an appropriate legal basis for each relevant processing activity. Depending on the activity, this may include consent, performance of a contract, legitimate interests, or compliance with a legal obligation.

The applicable basis should be determined in relation to the specific purpose and not treated as automatically applicable to every type of processing.

09 Data Sharing and Disclosure

Information may be shared where necessary for service delivery, technical operations, security and fraud prevention, legal compliance, or other authorized business operations. Any sharing with service providers should be limited to the information and purposes relevant to the service provided.

Statements about selling personal information, targeted advertising, or other disclosures must be based on verified practices and any applicable legal definitions.

10 Data Storage and Retention

Personal information should be retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, to meet operational needs, or to comply with applicable legal obligations.

Retention may differ for contact inquiries, uploaded images, technical logs, analytics information, account records, and billing records if such records exist. Profile Picture Makers must verify and document actual retention criteria or periods rather than publishing unverified fixed timeframes.

11 Data Security

Profile Picture Makers should use reasonable technical and organizational safeguards that are appropriate to its actual operations. No method of internet transmission or electronic storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

This policy does not claim end-to-end encryption, certification, zero-risk processing, or any other security guarantee unless independently verified and accurately described.

12 International Data Transfers

Personal information may be processed outside a visitor's country or region if hosting or applicable service providers operate internationally. Any international transfer disclosures and safeguards must reflect the actual hosting and provider arrangements in use.

Profile Picture Makers should not state that a particular transfer mechanism applies unless it has been verified.

13 Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights concerning your personal information, including rights to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, portability, withdrawal of consent, or other available remedies.

To make a privacy-related request, contact support@profilepicturemakers.com. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling certain requests. Available rights and procedures may vary by jurisdiction.

14 Privacy Rights for EEA, UK, and Other Regions

Visitors in the EEA, United Kingdom, California, and other regions may have additional rights under applicable privacy laws. Whether a particular law applies depends on the website's activities, the visitor's location, and relevant legal thresholds.

Where a law applies, Profile Picture Makers should provide the disclosures, request procedures, and contact details required by that law. This policy does not state that the service is subject to every privacy law worldwide.

15 Children's Privacy

Profile Picture Makers should not knowingly collect personal information from children in a manner prohibited by applicable law. The intended audience, any applicable age approach, and procedures for handling children's information must reflect actual service and policy decisions.

If a parent or guardian believes that a child has provided personal information through the website, they may contact support@profilepicturemakers.com with their concern.

16 External Links

The website may include links to third-party websites, platforms, or resources. Profile Picture Makers does not control the privacy practices of independent external websites. We encourage visitors to review the privacy notices of websites they visit.
