Use of AI Tools and Third-Party Services
We use third-party AI tools and platforms (including Midjourney, Krea.ai, Revy.art, and similar services) to generate visual content.
Any materials you provide, such as brand assets, product images, or creative briefs, are used solely for your project.

All third-party tools are reviewed for GDPR compliance, and we encourage clients to review their respective privacy policies.

We collect and retain only the information necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected.
Data is retained for the duration of a project and stored securely for a reasonable period afterward, as required for accounting, tax, or legal obligations.
Files containing client assets or creative materials are deleted upon project completion unless otherwise agreed.

You may request corrections at any time if information we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete.
