MyStylist

Privacy Policy

Effective date: 8 July 2026  ·  Last updated: 8 July 2026

In plain language: MyStylist stores all your wardrobe data and photos on your device only. No account is needed. We do not sell your data. The only time data leaves your device is when you add a clothing item (photo sent to Google Gemini AI for tagging) or ask for outfit suggestions (text sent to Google Gemini AI). Google does not use these requests to train its models under the current API terms.

1. Who We Are

MyStylist ("the App", "we", "us", "our") is a personal AI wardrobe and outfit-planning application for Android, developed and published by Keerthi K (keerthik97117@gmail.com). This Privacy Policy explains how the App collects, uses, stores, and protects information when you use it.

By installing and using MyStylist, you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree, please uninstall the App.

2. Information We Collect

The App collects two types of information: data you provide directly, and data generated automatically by the App.

We do not use your information for:

5. Third-Party Services

5.1 Google Gemini API (Google AI Studio)

MyStylist uses the Google Gemini API (via Firebase AI Logic) to power two features: AI photo tagging and outfit suggestion generation. When you add a clothing item or request outfit suggestions, the relevant data (photo and/or text) is sent to Google's servers over HTTPS.

Under the Google AI Studio Developer API terms (free tier), Google states that it does not use API inputs and outputs to train or improve its generative models. Requests are processed and the result is returned; Google does not retain your data beyond the processing window. See Google's Gemini API Terms of Service and Privacy Policy for full details.

5.2 Firebase App Check (Google)

The App uses Firebase App Check with Play Integrity to verify that API requests come from the genuine MyStylist app and not from unauthorised sources. This sends a device integrity attestation to Google. No personal data is included in this attestation. See Firebase Privacy Information.

5.3 Google ML Kit (On-Device)

Background removal from clothing photos is performed entirely on your device using Google's ML Kit Subject Segmentation library. No photo data is sent to Google's servers for this feature. Processing happens locally and the result stays on your device.

5.4 No Analytics, No Ads

The App does not include any advertising SDK (Google AdMob, Meta Ads, etc.), analytics SDK (Firebase Analytics, Mixpanel, etc.), or crash reporting service (Crashlytics, Sentry, etc.).

6. App Permissions

PermissionWhy it is needed
CAMERA To capture photos of clothing items directly within the App. The camera is only activated when you tap "Take photo". Declared as not required (android:required="false") so the App installs on devices without a camera.
READ_MEDIA_IMAGES
(or READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE on older Android)
To allow you to pick existing clothing photos from your gallery via the system Photo Picker.
INTERNET To send photos and text to Google Gemini AI for tagging and outfit suggestions. The App functions with its offline engine if there is no network connection.

7. Data Storage and Security

All wardrobe data (item details, wear counts, favourites) is stored in a SQLite database in the App's private internal storage using Android's Room library. Clothing photos are stored in the App's private internal directory. Both locations are:

We do not operate any servers or cloud databases. We have no ability to access your wardrobe data remotely.

8. Data Retention and Deletion

Your data is retained for as long as you use the App. You can delete individual wardrobe items at any time from within the App. To delete all data, uninstall the App — this permanently removes all photos, item records, and profile information from your device.

Because we do not operate a server or maintain a copy of your data, there is no additional deletion step required on our side.

9. Children's Privacy

MyStylist is rated "Everyone" (3+) on Google Play and is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided information through this App, please contact us at keerthik97117@gmail.com and we will take steps to address it.

10. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and, for significant changes, notify users through an in-app notice or the Google Play store listing update notes.

We encourage you to review this page periodically. Continued use of the App after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.

11. Your Rights

Because all data is stored locally on your device and we do not hold a copy, you already have full control:

For any questions about how Google processes data sent to its Gemini API, you may exercise your rights under Google's privacy framework at myaccount.google.com/data-and-privacy.
