Welcome to STILO, a sketch-style image-to-image application designed exclusively for iOS devices. Our core commitment is to protect your privacy while providing you with a lightweight, efficient, and artistically unique image creation experience. Unlike many other applications, STILO does not require you to register an account or log in with any personal credentials to use its full range of features. This means we never collect, store, or process any personal identification information related to account registration, and we want to be completely transparent about how we handle the limited data that is involved in using our app—with a clear and repeated emphasis: we do NOT collect any facial information, under any circumstances.
STILO’s primary function is to transform images you upload into artistic sketches through our core image processing technology. We have designed our app to focus solely on this creative purpose, minimizing the data we interact with to only what is absolutely necessary to deliver the service you expect. Your privacy is at the heart of our design, and we want to explicitly state from the outset: we do not collect, capture, extract, store, or use any facial information, whether it is from the images you upload or through any other means. Even if the images you choose to upload contain human faces, our image processing technology only processes the image as a whole to create a sketch effect—we never identify, analyze, or retain any facial features, facial data, or biometric information related to faces.
STILO is designed to be a lightweight and privacy-focused tool, so we collect only the minimal amount of information required to enable you to use the app’s core functionality: converting your uploaded images into sketches. The only information we process is the images you actively choose to upload to the app. This is the extent of the data we interact with—we do not collect any additional information about you, your device, your usage habits, or any personal details.
It is critical to reiterate: the images you upload are only used for the sole purpose of generating the sketch you request. We do NOT collect any facial information from these images. Our image processing algorithm treats the entire image as a single visual input, focusing on lines, shapes, and textures to create the sketch effect. It does not isolate, detect, or record any facial features, such as facial contours, eyes, nose, mouth, or any other biometric data related to faces. We never use any facial recognition technology, and we never store or process any facial information in any form, temporary or permanent.
Additionally, because STILO does not require an account, login, or any personal identification to use, we never collect information such as your name, email address (except for contact purposes if you reach out to us), phone number, date of birth, location, or any other personal data. We do not track your usage of the app, including which features you use, how often you use the app, or how long you spend on each session. We do not collect any data about your device, such as device model, iOS version, IP address, or any other device identifiers. Your experience with STILO is completely private and untracked, and we never collect any facial information at any point during your use of the app.
The only information we process is the images you upload, and we use these images for one purpose only: to apply our sketch-style image processing technology and generate the artistic sketch you request. Once the sketch is generated and made available to you within the app, the original uploaded image and the processed sketch are only stored temporarily on your device to enable you to view, save, or share the sketch. We do not store your uploaded images or the generated sketches on any external servers, cloud storage, or third-party platforms.
Again, we want to emphasize clearly: we do NOT collect any facial information as part of this process. Even if your uploaded image contains one or more faces, our technology does not extract, analyze, or retain any facial data. The temporary processing of the image is purely visual and focused on creating the sketch effect—no facial recognition, no facial feature detection, and no collection of any information related to faces. We never use the images you upload for any purpose other than generating the requested sketch, and we never share, sell, or disclose your uploaded images (or any part of them, including any facial content) to any third parties.
Once you have finished using the app—whether you save the sketch to your device, share it, or close the app—the temporary data related to your uploaded image is automatically cleared from the app’s temporary storage on your device. We do not retain any of your image data beyond what is necessary for you to complete your desired action, and we never collect any additional information, including any facial information, at any stage of your interaction with STILO.
To further ensure transparency, we want to explicitly list the types of information we never collect, with a specific and repeated focus on facial information:
We do NOT collect any facial information, including facial features, facial biometrics, facial recognition data, or any other information related to human faces. This applies to all images you upload, as well as any other interactions with the app—we never use any technology to capture or process facial information.
We do NOT collect any personal identification information, such as your name, email address (unless you contact us), phone number, address, date of birth, or any other personal details.
We do NOT collect any account-related information, because STILO does not require you to register an account, log in, or provide any credentials to use the app.
We do NOT collect any device information, including device model, iOS version, IP address, device identifiers, Wi-Fi information, or any other data related to your device.
We do NOT collect any usage data, such as how often you use the app, which features you use, how long you spend using the app, or any other information about your interaction with the app.
We do NOT collect any location information, whether precise or approximate—STILO does not require or request access to your device’s location services, and we never collect or process any location data.
We do NOT collect any biometric information of any kind, including facial information, fingerprints, voice data, or any other biometric identifiers.
It is important to emphasize again: under no circumstances do we collect any facial information. This is a core principle of our privacy approach—we respect your privacy and recognize the sensitivity of facial data, so we have designed STILO to never interact with, process, or collect any facial information whatsoever. Even if you upload an image with a face, we only process the image as a whole to create a sketch, and we never extract or store any facial details.
STILO is designed to prioritize both your privacy and the security of any data you interact with through the app. As stated earlier, we do not store any of your uploaded images or generated sketches on external servers, cloud storage, or third-party platforms. All data related to your uploaded images and processed sketches is stored temporarily only on your iOS device, and this temporary storage is encrypted to ensure that your data remains secure.
We do NOT collect any facial information, so there is no facial data to store, secure, or process in any way. The temporary storage on your device is only for the purpose of enabling you to view, save, or share your generated sketch, and this data is automatically cleared once you no longer need it (for example, when you close the app or upload a new image). You have complete control over your data—you can save the sketch to your device’s photo library, share it through other apps, or delete it entirely, and we never retain any copies of your data beyond the temporary processing period.
We take all reasonable measures to ensure that the temporary data stored on your device is secure, and we regularly update our app to maintain the highest level of security. However, because we do not collect any personal information, facial information, or sensitive data, there is no risk of such information being accessed, stolen, or misused by third parties—we simply do not have any such data to protect beyond the temporary images you upload, which remain under your complete control.
STILO is a standalone application that does not integrate any third-party services, SDKs (Software Development Kits), analytics tools, advertising networks, or any other third-party components. This means we never share, sell, disclose, or transfer any of your data (including the images you upload) to any third parties. We do not use any third-party tools to track your usage, collect your data, or process any information related to your interaction with the app.
Since we do NOT collect any facial information, there is no facial data to share with third parties, and since we do not collect any other personal or sensitive data, there is no risk of your data being accessed by third parties. The only interaction you may have with third parties is if you choose to share your generated sketch through other apps (such as messaging apps, social media platforms, or email), but this is entirely under your control—we do not initiate any sharing of your data, and we never provide any of your data to third parties without your explicit, voluntary action.
We want to reiterate: because we do not collect any facial information, there is no possibility of third parties gaining access to any facial data through STILO. Our commitment to privacy means we have eliminated all unnecessary third-party integrations, ensuring that your experience with the app is completely private and secure.
At STILO, we believe you should have complete control over your data, and we have designed the app to reflect this principle. Since we do not collect any personal information, facial information, or sensitive data, you do not need to worry about managing or deleting personal data stored on our servers—we simply do not store any such data. The only data related to your use of the app is the images you upload and the sketches generated, which are temporarily stored on your device.
You have full control over this temporary data: you can save the generated sketch to your device’s photo library, share it with others through your preferred apps, or delete it entirely from the app. Once you delete the sketch from the app or close the app, the temporary data is automatically cleared, and no traces of your uploaded image or generated sketch remain in the app’s storage. We do not retain any copies of your data, and we never collect any additional information, including any facial information, without your explicit knowledge and control.
Again, we emphasize: we do NOT collect any facial information, so you never have to worry about deleting or managing facial data related to your use of STILO. Your privacy is protected by design, and you have complete control over all data associated with your use of the app.
