Privacy Policy
Effective date: July 9, 2026
This document is an informational draft prepared for the app and has not been reviewed by a lawyer. Please review it with counsel before relying on it for legal compliance.
Who we are
Skincare AI is developed and operated by Emre Berkay Kaya, an individual developer ("we", "us"). Skincare AI is a cosmetic and wellness app: it helps you understand the visible condition of your skin, build a personal skincare routine, and track your progress over time with photos. It is not a medical device and does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. If you have a question about this policy or how your data is handled, you can reach us at privacy@rockers.dev (this address is provisional while the app is in early release, and we will update it here if it changes).
Data we collect
We collect the following categories of information:
- Account information. You can use the app anonymously without creating an account. If you choose to sign in with Apple or Google to save your data and sync it across devices, we receive the name and email address associated with that sign in method (Apple lets you hide your real email with a private relay address, which we support).
- Skin photos. Baseline photos taken during onboarding (front and both side profiles) and weekly progress photos you choose to take, used to generate your skin report and track change over time.
- Onboarding answers. Your responses to the skincare quiz: skin type, concerns, goals, habits, and similar self reported context used to personalize your report and routine.
- Your report and routine plan. The generated skin analysis report and the AM/PM routine plan built from it, stored so it can be restored on a new device.
- Purchase information. Subscription status, product identifiers, and transaction identifiers needed to unlock paid features. We do not receive your full payment card details; these are handled by Apple and our subscription infrastructure provider.
- Device identifiers. A device or installation identifier and an anonymous user identifier used to keep your data attached to your account and to protect the app from abuse.
- Usage analytics. Aggregate, non-identifying information about how the app is used, such as which screens are opened and which features are used, so we can improve the product.
- Crash and diagnostic data. Automatically generated crash reports and error logs used to find and fix bugs.
How we use your data
We use the data described above to:
- generate your skin analysis report and build your personalized skincare routine and recommendations;
- personalize the app experience to your skin type, concerns, and goals;
- operate core app functionality, such as syncing your report and photos across your devices and restoring your data after a reinstall;
- protect the security of the app and its users, detect fraud, and prevent abuse of our services;
- understand, in aggregate, how the app is used so we can improve it; and
- diagnose and fix crashes and technical problems.
Third parties and processors
We rely on a small number of service providers (processors) to run Skincare AI. We do not sell your data to any of them, and none of them are permitted to use your data for their own advertising purposes.
- Firebase (Google). Authentication, database storage (Firestore), photo storage (Cloud Storage), app integrity checks (App Check), and the Cloud Functions that run our backend logic.
- OpenRouter.Your skin photos are sent, through our own Cloud Functions proxy (we never call OpenRouter directly from the app), to OpenRouter's AI models for the sole purpose of generating your skin analysis report and routine recommendations. We do not use your photos to train our own models, and we do not sell them.
- RevenueCat. Manages subscription status and entitlements across platforms so paid features unlock correctly.
- Apple. Processes in-app purchases and subscription payments, and provides Sign In with Apple. If you use an iPhone or iPad, Apple also provides App Store services used to distribute the app.
We may also disclose information if required to do so by law, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of our users or the public.
Photos
Your baseline onboarding photos and any weekly progress photos you take are used to generate your skin report and to show you how your skin changes over time. Photos are stored in Cloud Storage under your account and are only accessible to you (and, for the limited purpose described above, our AI analysis proxy). You can delete individual progress photos or delete your entire account (which removes your photos) at any time from within the app.
How we do not track you
We do not track you across other companies' apps or websites, and we do not use your data for cross-app tracking or targeted advertising. Skincare AI does not show third-party ads, and we do not share, rent, or sell your personal data to data brokers or advertising networks. In short: we do not track you, and we do not sell your data.
Retention and account deletion
We keep your account data, including your report, routine, and photos, for as long as you have an account with us, so the app can continue to work for you. You can delete your account at any time from the Profile screen in the app. Account deletion removes your profile, report, routine, and photos from our systems. We may retain aggregate or anonymized analytics that can no longer be linked back to you, for product improvement purposes, even after deletion.
Security
We use Firebase App Check to help ensure that requests to our backend come from genuine copies of the app rather than automated or tampered clients, and all data sent between the app and our backend is encrypted in transit. Access to production data is restricted to what is necessary to operate the service. No method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure, but we work to protect your information using industry standard practices.
International data transfers
Skincare AI is developed and operated from Türkiye, and your data is processed on US-based cloud infrastructure operated by our service providers (Firebase and related Google Cloud services). By using the app, you understand that your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in the United States and other countries where our processors operate, which may have data protection laws different from those in your country.
Children
Skincare AI is not directed to children and is not intended for use by anyone under 16 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at privacy@rockers.dev so we can delete it.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, export, correct, or delete the personal data we hold about you. You can exercise most of these rights directly in the app: the Profile screen lets you review your report, export or delete your progress photos, and delete your account. For any request you cannot complete in the app, or if you have questions about your rights, contact us at privacy@rockers.dev.
Changes to this policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time as the app changes or as required by law. If we make material changes, we will update the date shown at the top of this page and, where appropriate, notify you in the app. We encourage you to review this page periodically.

Questions about this privacy policy or how your data is handled can be sent to privacy@rockers.dev. This address is provisional while the app is in early release; if it changes, we will update it on this page.
