3. Data Storage and Security

  • Storage: Your data is stored in our secure database. Each processing job, its source images, results, and thumbnails expire 24 hours after processing finishes. Unused uploads expire 24 hours after upload. Reusing an image in another job does not extend the earlier job's deadline; shared files are kept until all jobs and uploads using them expire. Expired files are removed by periodic cleanup. Please download images you want to keep. Existing images and finished jobs receive a 24-hour grace period when this policy takes effect. Internal job and credit records are retained for accounting.
