Privacy Policy

Last updated 29 September 2026

Drop Studio makes weekly sets of AI photographs of you, from selfies you upload once. This page describes exactly what that requires us to hold, who else sees it, and how to make all of it go away. It describes this app as it is built, not a category of app.

There is no account to sign up for

The app never asks for an email address, a name, a phone number or a password. On first launch it generates a random identifier on your device, stores it in the iOS Keychain, and uses it as your account. We cannot look you up by name, because we do not have one.

What we hold

Data	Why we need it	How long
A random device identifier	It is your account.	Until you delete your account.
The 3–8 selfies you upload	They are the reference the generator conditions on; they are sent with every photo it makes.	Until you delete your account or replace them.
The photographs generated for you	They are your drops.	Until you delete your account.
Your notification token, if you allow notifications	To tell you a drop has landed.	Until you turn notifications off, delete the app, or delete your account.
Your subscription status	To know whether to give you full-resolution photographs.	Until you delete your account.
Basic technical logs	To find faults.	A short operational period.

We do not collect your contacts, your location, your photo library beyond the images you pick, or your browsing. We use no advertising identifiers and we run no advertising.

Who else sees it

fal.ai makes the photographs and the clips that bring them to life. Your photo is sent to it as a short-lived link, with the text describing the scene; for a clip, the photograph being brought to life and the people cut out of it go with it.
Replicate also makes photographs and clips, cuts the people out of a photo, and enlarges a photograph to 4K when you ask. It receives them the same way, as short-lived links.
Anthropic (Claude) looks at each photo you add, to count the people in it and check it is clear enough to use; describes each photograph you bring to life, to direct its clip; and writes the words that accompany a theme.
Apple processes payments and delivers notifications.
RevenueCat tells our servers when a subscription starts, renews or ends, identified by your device account and nothing else.
Amazon Web Services hosts the service and stores the images.

We do not sell your data, and we do not share it for anyone else's advertising.

Your photographs are not training data

We do not use your selfies or your generated photographs to train any model of ours, and we do not publish them anywhere. They exist to make your drops and for nothing else.

Deleting everything

Settings → Delete my account removes your account, your selfies, your identity model and every photograph generated for you. It is inside the app and needs no email to us.

Deleting your account does not cancel an Apple subscription — only Apple can. Cancel it first in Settings → Manage subscription, or through the App Store, or you will keep being billed for an app you no longer have.

Your rights

Depending on where you live — including under the GDPR in the EU/UK and the KVKK in Turkey — you may ask what we hold about you, ask for a copy, ask us to correct it, or ask us to erase it. Deletion is built into the app; for anything else write to privacy@dropstudio.app and we will answer within 30 days. You may also complain to your local data protection authority.

Children

Drop Studio is not intended for anyone under 13, and we do not knowingly hold data from children. If you believe a child has used the app, write to us and we will delete it.

Security

Data travels over encrypted connections and is stored on AWS. Photographs are served through links that expire, so a link that leaks stops working. No system is perfect and we will not pretend otherwise.

Changes

If this policy changes materially we will update the date above and, where the change matters, say so in the app.
