Privacy Policy for Awesomize.ai
Effective date: July 20, 2026
Who we are
Awesomize.ai ("we", "our", or "us") is a website that curates and links to AI-powered applications ("Apps"). Most Apps launch inside OpenAI's ChatGPT. This Policy explains how we collect, use, share, and protect information when you use our website, ChatGPT apps, and mobile application, and the choices you have.
Scope
- The Awesomize.ai website and subpages (the "Site").
- The App listings and outbound links we provide to launch Apps in ChatGPT.
- The Wondeo AI Video Maker & Editor mobile application for Apple iOS, as further described under "Wondeo Mobile Application Privacy" below.
Except as expressly stated in the mobile application section below, this Policy does not apply to third-party services we do not control, including OpenAI's ChatGPT product, payment systems, or third-party OAuth providers you may encounter after leaving our Site. Your use of those services is governed by their applicable terms and privacy policies.
Information we collect

Click events on our Site (e.g., "Open in ChatGPT", "Details") to understand interest and improve navigation. We do not know whether you completed a purchase inside ChatGPT.
c) Cookies and similar technologies Essential cookies (e.g., language preference). With your consent, analytics cookies to improve the Site.
d) App inputs and User Content We do not process your prompts or content inside ChatGPT on our servers.

We use information to operate and improve the Site and App directory; measure interest; communicate; detect and prevent abuse; maintain security; and comply with legal obligations.
How we share information
We share information with service providers where necessary to provide requested services, for legal compliance, or with your consent. We do not sell personal information.
Data retention
We retain information only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, unless a longer period is required by law. More specific retention rules for the Wondeo mobile application and user-uploaded media are described below.
Your choices
You may disable non-essential cookies; unsubscribe from communications; and request access, correction, or deletion where applicable.
Security

Wondeo Mobile Application Privacy
This section describes how we handle data in the Wondeo AI Video Maker & Editor mobile application (the "App") for Apple iOS, in addition to the website privacy practices described above. The App is operated by Vidline.
Information we collect in the App
- Account information — when you sign in (e.g., with Google or Apple), we receive your name, email address, and a user identifier.
- Content and inputs — the text prompts you submit and the photos, images, or videos you upload, generate, or save in the App. Uploaded media may include images of people, including faces. We store this content so you can view, manage, reuse, and delete it in the App, and we process it to generate the output you request.
- Purchase information — your subscription and Credits status. Payments are processed by Apple; we do not receive or store your full payment card details.
- Device and usage data — device model, operating system version, app version, language, in-app activity, and crash or diagnostic data.
- Notification information — if you enable notifications, Apple or our notification service provides the App with a device-specific notification identifier so that we can deliver notifications to your device. We use this identifier only to provide and manage App notifications.
How we use information
We use App information to provide AI generation and other App features; store and display content selected by the user; operate subscriptions and Credits; provide customer support; moderate content and prevent abuse; maintain security; analyze and improve the App; and comply with legal obligations.
Face Data and Images of People
The App collects and stores only the photos, images, and videos that users choose to upload. Those files may contain images of people, including faces. We treat any face appearing in uploaded media as part of the user-provided image or video rather than as a separate biometric identifier.
The App does not perform facial recognition and does not extract, create, or store facial geometry, faceprints, biometric identifiers, biometric templates, or face embeddings. We do not use face-containing media to identify or authenticate an individual, create a profile about an individual, track an individual, or provide targeted advertising.
We use face-containing media only to:
- store and display the media so the user can view, manage, reuse, and delete it in the App;
- provide the image or video generation requested by the user;
- perform content-safety, fraud-prevention, and abuse-prevention checks; and
- comply with applicable legal obligations.
The App does not use uploaded media for model training or model improvement. Vidline does not authorize third-party AI providers to use uploaded media for model training or model improvement. Consent to generate an image or video is limited to providing the requested generation and required content-safety checks.
Users must upload images of another person only after obtaining that person's permission and all necessary rights. Users should not upload images of another person without that person's consent.
Third parties / processors
- Apple — In-App Purchase, subscriptions, and Sign in with Apple.
- Google — Google Sign-In and, where used, Firebase services such as authentication, Crashlytics crash reporting, analytics, and Cloud Messaging for push notifications.
- Volcano Engine / ByteDance AI services — to provide requested AI generation, the App sends the user's text prompt and selected photos, images, or videos, which may include images of people and faces, to Volcano Engine's Doubao/Seedance image- and video-generation services. These services process the submitted media and prompts in China to generate the requested output and perform required content-safety checks.
We require service providers to protect personal information and process it only for authorized purposes. We do not sell personal information, including face-containing media.
AI processing notice and consent
Generating content is a core function of the App and requires sending the user's prompt and selected media to the third-party AI service identified above. Before the first such transmission, the App displays an in-app notice explaining:
- what data will be sent, including the prompt and any selected photos, images, or videos;
- that the media may contain images of people, including faces;
- that the recipient is Volcano Engine's Doubao/Seedance AI service; and
- that the purpose is to provide the generation requested by the user and perform required content-safety checks.
The prompt and selected media are transmitted only after the user agrees. If the user declines, the prompt and media are not sent and the requested AI generation cannot be performed.
Storage, retention, and deletion of uploaded media and face data
Vidline stores user-uploaded media, including media that may contain faces, in Vidline-controlled cloud storage located in the United States so that the user can view and manage it in the App. The uploaded media is retained until the user deletes the media or deletes the user's account.
Users can delete an uploaded photo, image, or video directly in the App. When the user deletes uploaded media, all copies of that uploaded media controlled by Vidline are deleted immediately, and the media is no longer available in the App. Vidline does not retain a separate facial template, faceprint, embedding, or biometric record after the media is deleted because the App does not create such data.
Generated outputs are managed separately from the source media. Deleting an uploaded source image or video does not automatically delete a generated output that the user has chosen to keep. A generated output remains available until the user deletes that output or deletes the user's account.
The prompt and selected media are also processed by Volcano Engine as described above. Vidline authorizes processing only as necessary to provide the requested generation, conduct required content-safety and abuse-prevention checks, and comply with applicable law. Vidline does not authorize the use of uploaded media for model training or model improvement. Volcano Engine may retain information where required by its applicable service agreement, content-safety obligations, or applicable law.
Users may delete their account directly in the App through Profile / Settings → Delete Account. Account deletion removes the user's profile and associated personal data controlled by Vidline, including uploaded media and generated content associated with the account. Users may also request access to or deletion of their data by contacting [email protected]. We will respond within the period required by applicable law.
