Is it safe to send my child's photo to create a personalised book?

What happens to the photo after you upload it, explained in plain language โ€” no fine print.

Is it safe to send my child's photo to create a personalised book?

Is it safe to send a child's photo to generate an AI avatar? Yes โ€” and the main reason is simple: the original photo is automatically deleted right after the avatar is created. We never keep the photo, only the result.

What happens to the photo, step by step

  1. 1You upload the photo to generate the avatar preview.
  2. 2Our AI processes the image and creates the personalised avatar, in about 30 seconds.
  3. 3The original photo is deleted from our systems as soon as the avatar is ready.
  4. 4Only the avatar (never the source photo) stays linked to your book or account.

Why this matters even more when it's a child's photo

We know that deciding to send a photo of your son or daughter isn't the same as sending any other photo. That's why the whole process is built around one simple rule: keep as little as possible, for as little time as possible.

GDPR compliance, in plain language

We use Google infrastructure that complies with GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation), and your child's data is handled with the utmost care at every step of the process โ€” from upload to the printing of the book.

Common privacy questions

  • Do I need to create an account to try it? No โ€” you can create the avatar and preview the story for free, with no account, with access to 2 avatars.
  • What if I create an account? You get 6 avatars available, and your progress is saved so you never have to start from scratch.
  • Does anyone else see the photo? No โ€” processing is automatic, and the photo is deleted right after.
