Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 7, 2026
Debut Creative LLC
Effective Date: July 7, 2026
Debut Creative LLC (“Debut,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) operates the website debutphotos.com, a self-serve AI photo generator. You upload photos of yourself, we set up a private AI model of your appearance, and you generate new AI-created photos of yourself. This Privacy Policy explains what we collect, how we use it, who we share it with, and the choices you have.
By using our website or services, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use our services.
Information We Collect
Account information: Your email address and, if you sign in with Google, your name and Google account identifier. We do not use passwords.
Your selfies: The photos of yourself that you upload to set up your AI model. These are stored privately and are the core input to the service.
Your appearance profile: A structured description of your appearance (such as gender presentation, approximate age, ethnicity, eye color, hair, and facial hair). Our AI drafts this from your selfies and you review, correct, and confirm it. It exists to make your generated photos look like you.
Generated photos: The AI-created photos and edits we produce for you, along with the settings used to create them.
Purchase information: Your plan, credit balance, and purchase history. Payment is processed by Stripe; we do not collect, store, or have access to your card number or full payment details. Please refer to Stripe's privacy policy for how they handle payment data.
Website usage data: We use Google Analytics 4 and the Meta Pixel to collect information about how visitors interact with our website. This may include your IP address, approximate location, browser type, device data, pages visited, time spent on the site, referring URL, and click events. This data is collected through cookies and similar tracking technologies.
Your Selfies, Your Face, and Your AI Model
This section matters more than the rest, so here it is plainly.
What we do: To make photos that look like you, our systems analyze the facial features in the selfies you upload. When you upload your selfies, you give us your explicit consent to process your facial features for this purpose. We use that analysis only to set up your private AI model, generate and edit your photos, and run automated likeness and quality checks on the results.
What we never do: We never use your selfies, your face, or your photos to train AI models for anyone else. We never sell them, never share them for advertising, and never use them in our own marketing without your separate, explicit written consent. Your AI model works only for your account.
How long we keep them: Your selfies power your AI model, so they are retained while your account is active in order for you to keep generating new photos. You can remove individual selfies from your model page and permanently delete any generated photo from your gallery at any time. When you delete a photo or selfie, it is removed from our storage. If you want everything gone, email hello@debutphotos.com and we will delete your selfies, your AI model data, your generated photos, and your account records within 30 days of your request, except for records we are legally required to keep (such as purchase records).
How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to: provide the service, including setting up your AI model and generating and editing your photos; run automated quality, likeness, and safety checks on generated content; send transactional emails (sign-in links, notifications that your model or photos are ready); process payments and maintain your credit balance; improve our website and measure marketing through analytics; and comply with legal obligations.
How We Store and Protect Your Information
Your photos are stored in private cloud storage and are accessible only through short-lived signed links tied to your account. Account data lives in a managed database. We use encrypted connections throughout. No method of electronic storage or transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security, but we take reasonable measures to protect your data from unauthorized access, alteration, or destruction.
Third-Party Services We Use
We do not sell your personal information. We share data with a small number of vendors that power our service, each limited to the purpose described below.
