COOKIE DISCLOSURE
Cookie Statement
This Cookie Statement lays out which cookies and similar trackers run inside the AI image generator and AI photo editor, the signals they gather, and the levers you have to manage consent — all aligned with Article 13 of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
1. Data Controller
Whenever you visit this site, personal data relating to identified or identifiable individuals may be processed. The Data Controller in charge of that processing is Photo-Maker.org, reachable by email at info@photo-maker.org.
Data Protection Officer (DPO)
The Data Protection Officer, represented by Photo Maker under Article 37 of EU Regulation 2016/679 (GDPR), is reachable at the same email address: info@photo-maker.org.
2. Categories of personal data and purposes of processing
Storage and collection of advertising-related data, including cookies
Information is gathered to surface ads that better match your interests and browsing patterns. This typically involves cookies that record how you engage with advertising content.
Storage and collection of advertising user data
We share relevant signals with our advertising partners so campaigns reach the audiences most likely to find them useful, and so delivery can be measured and refined.
Storage and collection of data for personalized advertising
Behavioral and preference signals are used to tailor the ads you see, making them more relevant to your tastes and less random in nature.
Storage and collection of analytics data, such as session duration
We measure how the studio is used — how long sessions last, which features are touched, and where friction appears — so we can keep improving the experience.
Storage and collection of data supporting core site functionality
This category powers essential features such as secure form submission, session continuity, navigation, and basic studio interactions. Without it, the product cannot operate reliably.
Storage and collection of personalization data, such as content recommendations
We use these signals to recommend content, presets, and starter prompts that line up with how you have used the studio before.
Storage and collection of security data, including authentication and abuse prevention
Security signals keep access safe and protect the studio against unauthorized entry, automated abuse, fraud attempts, and other malicious behavior.
3. Third-party profiling cookies in use
Web analytics lets us study how the studio is used, build aggregate activity reports, and share anonymized insights internally. Where data crosses outside the EU, we strip identifiers whenever feasible so it cannot be traced back to you directly.
Content delivery and traffic routing is provided by a third-party network that sits between the studio and your browser, captures aggregate request metrics, and helps direct traffic efficiently.
Conversion tracking connects advertising activity to actions taken on this studio so we can gauge how effective outbound offers really are.
Tag management is delivered by a third-party tool that lets us operate the various scripts and pixels running on the studio while keeping them organized and safe.
Outbound link measurement counts how often external links on this studio are opened. The numbers are aggregated and never tied to you personally. Cookies set by those destinations are governed by the destination site's own privacy policy.
4. Choices available to you
You are in charge. Your browser can be set to reject all cookies or to alert you whenever a cookie is being written. Keep in mind that blocking cookies may stop some studio features from working as intended.
You can also adjust cookie preferences from the consent banner shown on your first visit, or reopen it any time through the "Manage Cookie Choices" link in the footer of every Photo Maker page.
5. Legal basis for processing
The Data Controller processes the personal data described here in order to deliver the studio's services and, where relevant, to honor contractual or legal obligations. Processing that requires consent (analytics, advertising, personalization) only happens after you opt in via the consent banner.
If dedicated sections for newsletters or marketing communications are added in the future, they will be covered by their own, separate notices.
6. Optionality of supplying data
Under the "Guidelines on cookies and other tracking tools" issued on 10 June 2021, you can choose to authorize or decline profiling cookies at your own discretion. In a few cases — such as the anti-bot abuse-prevention cookie — blocking a profiling cookie will prevent you from submitting forms. You can always re-enable it from your privacy preferences, or send the request manually by email if you prefer to keep the cookie blocked.
Beyond what is described for navigation data, you may freely choose to provide personal data through request forms, newsletter signups, or other contact channels when asking for information, material, or other communications.
If you decide not to share that data, we may not be able to deliver the requested services.
7. Retention period
Personal data gathered for the purposes outlined above is kept only for as long as strictly necessary to achieve those purposes, in line with Article 5(1)(e) GDPR. Aggregated analytics is held for up to fourteen (14) months. Conversion tracking identifiers follow the lifetime of the partner cookie, usually up to ninety (90) days.
8. Your rights as a data subject
You have the right to access, correct, erase, restrict, port, and object to the processing of your personal data, to withdraw consent at any moment, and to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority of your habitual residence or workplace — alongside the other rights set out in Articles 15–22 of the GDPR.
To exercise any of these rights, write to the Data Controller at: info@photo-maker.org.
9. Automated decision-making
No part of our processing relies on automated decision-making that produces legal effects or otherwise significantly affects you (Article 22 GDPR).
10. Managing cookies inside your browser
If you would rather not have cookies running on this site, start by disabling cookies in your browser and then clear any cookies already associated with this studio. You can revisit this choice at any time.
Declining our cookies may make parts of the studio less convenient to use, and a few features may stop working the way you expect.
To delete cookies or instruct your browser to refuse them, check the help section of your browser. Most modern browsers have a built-in option to clear cookies and site data, usually tucked under Settings, Privacy, or History.
- Open the Settings or Preferences panel of your browser.
- Find the Privacy, Cookies, or Site Data section.
- Decide whether to delete cookies already stored for this studio, or to block cookies from it going forward.
- Save the change and restart the browser if it asks.
On mobile browsers, the same flow typically lives inside the browser's app settings. For any other browser, please consult its official documentation.
