1. About This Policy & AI Face Swap
This Privacy Policy describes how AI Face Swap: Photo Editor (“the app”, “our app”, “we”, “us”) handles and protects your data. The application is developed and published by FlexSol Technologies.
AI Face Swap is an on-device creative photo editing utility designed to allow users to detect faces, swap facial features between images, organize a personal local Face Library, and preview realistic results. We believe biometric privacy is a fundamental human right. Therefore, our application has been architected from the ground up to operate locally on your Android device without relying on external cloud servers or remote processing pipelines.
2. Core Privacy Architecture: On-Device Processing
Traditional face-swapping applications typically upload your private family and portrait photos to remote cloud servers for heavy processing. AI Face Swap works entirely differently:
- Edge Computing via ONNX Runtime: We run deep neural networks locally on your mobile device utilizing Microsoft's open-source ONNX Runtime engine.
- Local Memory Execution: Face detection, landmark alignment, facial feature vector extraction, and image synthesis occur exclusively in your device's volatile memory (RAM).
- Ephemeral Image Processing: The source and target images you load are processed ephemerally. Temporary bitmap buffers are immediately discarded when your editing session ends.
- No External Data Pipes: No photo data, biometric landmarks, or swapped images are ever transmitted to FlexSol Technologies or any third-party infrastructure.
3. Information We Do NOT Collect
We do not collect, harvest, monetize, transmit, or share any personal data from our users. Specifically, AI Face Swap does not collect:
- Biometric Databases: We do not construct, aggregate, or store facial recognition templates, face signatures, or personal identity profiles on any server.
- Personal Identity Data: No names, phone numbers, email addresses, usernames, or physical addresses.
- Images & Videos: No photos, camera captures, edited outputs, or source images leave your device.
- Device Identifiers & Telemetry: No Android Advertising IDs (AAID), MAC addresses, IMEI numbers, or hardware identifiers.
- Location Information: No GPS, Wi-Fi location, IP geolocation, or cell tower data.
- Contacts & Personal Content: No access to address books, calendars, messages, or browser history.
- Financial Information: The app is 100% free; no credit card numbers, payment accounts, or financial data are requested or handled.
4. Data Stored Locally on Your Device
Certain preferences and features function by storing data locally within the app's sandboxed private storage directory on your physical device. This data is never accessible to other apps or sent over the internet:
- AI Neural Network Weights: During the initial onboarding setup, the app downloads three open-source model files (
det_10g.onnx,w600k_r50.onnx, andinswapper_128.onnx) directly into app-private storage. These weights contain mathematical model parameters used to execute offline inference. - Face Library: When you choose to save a face to your personal Face Library, a cropped thumbnail and its numerical embedding vector (a 512-dimensional array of numbers) are saved locally in the app's internal private folder (
files/saved_faces/). This allows you to quickly re-use your favorite faces without having to re-select photos each time. - App Preferences: Local key-value flags stored via Android
SharedPreferencesto remember whether onboarding was completed and your active UI preferences. - Temporary Share Cache: When you tap the “Share” button, a temporary JPEG file is written to your local cache directory so the Android system Share sheet can attach it. This file is replaced or cleared when cache is emptied.
5. Android Device Permissions Explained
AI Face Swap requests only the minimum operating system permissions strictly necessary to deliver its editing capabilities. We never access permissions covertly or for data collection purposes:
| Permission | Android Version | Exact Purpose & Data Handling |
