1. Introduction
Welcome to TattooDesignPro ("we," "our," or "us"). We operate the TattooDesignPro website, AI tattoo studio generation services, thermal stencil tools, and consultation planning platform. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal information.
This Privacy Policy explains how your personal data is collected, stored, processed, and safeguarded when you visit our website, register an account, purchase credits, or use any of our design tools.
2. Information We Collect
We collect information in three primary ways:
A. Information You Voluntarily Provide
- Account Credentials: Full name, email address, password hash, and profile details created upon registration.
- Creative Generation Input: Prompt descriptions, style preferences (e.g., Irezumi, Fine-Line, Blackwork), anatomical placement selections, and user-uploaded reference images.
- Support Inquiries: Communications and messages sent through our contact forms or support email.
B. Payment and Transaction Data
Payment processing is handled directly by our certified third-party merchant processor, Stripe, Inc. When you purchase credits or subscribe, Stripe collects your payment method, billing address, and transaction tokens. TattooDesignPro only stores high-level transaction identifiers, subscription status, and credit balance records.
C. Technical & Telemetry Data
When you browse our platform, our servers automatically log standard network telemetry including IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URLs, and timestamps to maintain network security and optimize system latency.
3. How We Use Your Information
We process your data for legitimate business purposes and contract execution, including:
- Generating custom AI tattoo concepts and 300 DPI thermal stencil line art based on your input.
- Managing account authentication, session persistence, and real-time credit balances.
- Providing customer support, answering inquiries, and troubleshooting rendering errors.
- Preventing malicious misuse, abuse of generation quotas, and automated bot attacks.
- Ensuring compliance with our Terms of Use and applicable international privacy laws.
4. Client-Side Privacy: Thermal Stencil Tool
Our interactive Thermal Stencil Maker (/tools/stencil-maker) is engineered with an emphasis on artist privacy. When you upload custom flash artwork or sketches to extract stencil lines:
- The Sobel edge extraction algorithm executes locally inside your browser's memory using HTML5 Canvas APIs.
- Raw, ungenerated reference sketches manipulated in the Stencil Maker are not sent to our servers or stored in remote databases.
5. Third-Party Infrastructure Providers
We partner with trusted, SOC-2 / ISO-27001 certified cloud infrastructure providers to host and secure your data:
- Stripe: Payment processing, customer billing portals, and transaction compliance.
- Cloudflare: CDN caching, DDoS protection, and secure R2 cloud asset storage.
- MongoDB Atlas: Encrypted-at-rest database storage for account profiles and project briefs.
We never sell, rent, or trade your personal information or design prompts to third-party data brokers.
6. Cookies & Session Storage
We utilize essential HTTP-only authentication cookies to maintain your login session securely across pages. We also utilize browser localStorage to remember your theme preferences and UI settings. We do not use invasive third-party cross-site advertising trackers.
7. Your Data Rights (GDPR & CCPA/CPRA)
Regardless of your geographical location, we provide all registered users with transparent data controls:
- Right to Access: You can request a digital export of all personal data and artwork associated with your account.
