Privacy Policy

Your photographs are the most personal thing you can hand a product. Here's exactly what we hold, why we hold it, and how you take it back.

Last reviewed August 2026

What we collect

Your account: the email address you sign up with, your name if you give one, and — if you use Google — the basic profile Google returns.

Your memories: the photographs you upload, the books you build from them, and the words you write or approve.

Your orders: the configuration, delivery address and order history needed to print and ship a book.

Placeholder — List any analytics or error-reporting tools in use and the data they receive.

Why we hold it

To run the product you asked for: to keep you signed in, store your books, let AI draft a story from your photographs, show you a preview, and print and deliver an order.

We do not sell your photographs or your personal information, and we don't use your memories to advertise to you.

Placeholder — State the lawful basis for each purpose (e.g. contract, consent, legitimate interests) for GDPR/DPDP jurisdictions.

How AI processes your photos

To suggest a story, ETAPA analyses the photographs in a book you are building — things like when they were taken, what they appear to show and how they group into moments — and generates draft captions and layouts.

This happens so you can be shown a first draft. You approve everything.

Placeholder — If any processing happens outside your own infrastructure, name the providers, the regions involved, and whether content is retained or used for model training. State plainly if it is not.

Who else sees it

Only the services needed to deliver the product: hosting and database, payment processing when you order, and the print and delivery partner that produces your book.

Each receives only what their job requires — the printer needs your pages and address, not your account history.

Placeholder — Name each processor, its role and its location, and link to their terms.

Your control

You can view and edit your books at any time, delete photographs and books from your account, and ask for your account and its contents to be deleted entirely.

Depending on where you live, you may also have the right to a copy of your data, to correct it, or to object to certain processing.

Placeholder — Add how to make a request, the response window, retention periods for deleted content and order records, and the contact for data-protection queries.

Keeping it safe

Sessions are held in secure, HTTP-only cookies rather than in browser storage reachable by scripts, and access to your books requires your authenticated account.

No system is perfect. If a breach ever affects your data, we'll tell you and the relevant authority as required.

Placeholder — Describe encryption at rest and in transit, access controls, and the breach notification timeline required in each jurisdiction.

Questions?

We'd rather you ask than wonder. Reach the team and we'll walk you through anything here in plain language.

Placeholder — Add the company's registered entity name, postal address and a monitored contact address before publishing.
