BuildMyOutfit.com ("we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding that information when you use our website and outfit-building tool.
1. Information we collect
Image uploads
When you upload a photo to BuildMyOutfit, that image is processed entirely within your browser using the HTML5 Canvas API. Your image is never sent to our servers, stored in any database, or shared with third parties. The color-detection process happens locally on your device and the image data is discarded when you leave or refresh the page.
Analytics and cookies
We may use third-party analytics services (such as Google Analytics) to collect anonymized data about how visitors use our site. This includes information such as pages visited, time on site, browser type, and general geographic region. This data is aggregated and does not identify you personally.
Cookies may be set by these analytics services to track sessions over time. You can disable cookies in your browser settings at any time, though this may affect site functionality.
Affiliate link clicks
When you click a product link on our site, you may be redirected to a third-party retailer (such as Amazon). These retailers have their own privacy policies and may set their own cookies. We receive aggregated, anonymized commission data from purchases made through our affiliate links but do not receive any personal information about you from these transactions.
Contact inquiries
If you contact us via email, we retain your email address and message only for the purpose of responding to your inquiry. We do not add you to any mailing list without your explicit consent.
2. How we use information
We use the limited information we collect to:
- Operate and improve the outfit-building tool
- Understand how visitors use the site (via analytics)
- Respond to support inquiries
- Monitor and improve site performance and stability
We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with any third parties for marketing purposes.
3. Third-party services and links
Our site contains links to third-party retailer websites (including Amazon.com). Once you leave BuildMyOutfit.com, the privacy practices of the destination site apply. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of third-party sites.
We participate in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program. Amazon may use cookies and tracking to associate your purchases with our affiliate tag. Please review Amazon's Privacy Notice for details.
4. Data retention
We do not store any uploaded images. Analytics data is retained in accordance with our analytics provider's standard retention policies (typically 26 months for Google Analytics). Contact inquiry emails are retained only as long as necessary to resolve the inquiry.
5. Children's privacy
BuildMyOutfit.com is not directed to children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe we have inadvertently collected information from a child, please contact us and we will promptly delete it.
6. Your rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights regarding your personal data, including the right to access, correct, or delete information we hold about you. Since we collect minimal personal data, most requests can be fulfilled simply by contacting us at support@buildmyoutfit.com.
7. Changes to this 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. Continued use of the site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
