Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Ruslan Tsitser (“we,” “us,” or “our”) handles information when you use the DermisAI mobile application (“App”). DermisAI provides AI-assisted informational analysis of skin photos. It does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, or consultations with healthcare professionals.
1. Information we collect
Information you provide
- Skin scan photos from your camera or photo library;
- Scan details you add, such as body location, notes, and tags.
Information collected automatically
- Device and app data needed to run the App (for example, device type, operating system version, and app version);
- Local app data stored on your device, including scan history, analysis results, and preferences (for example, whether onboarding was completed).
Subscription data
Purchases and subscriptions are processed by Apple or Google. We receive subscription status through our provider Apphud (for example, whether premium access is active). We do not receive your full payment card details.
Sensitive information
Photos of your skin and related notes may be considered health-related or sensitive personal data in some regions. By submitting a scan for analysis, you ask us to process that information solely to provide the App’s features described in this Policy.
2. How we use information
We use information to:
- Send photos and related text to AI services to generate analysis;
- Save scans and results on your device;
- Enable premium features when you have an active subscription;
- Maintain security, fix bugs, and improve the App;
- Comply with legal obligations.
3. AI analysis (Google Gemini)
To perform analysis, the App sends your scan photo and any text you provide (such as notes or tags) to Google’s Gemini API over an encrypted connection (HTTPS). Google processes this data as a service provider according to Google’s Privacy Policy and the terms that apply to the API.
We use the API only to return analysis results to you. We do not sell your photos. Do not use the App for content you are not willing to share with Google for this purpose.
AI output is informational only. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional about medical concerns. See our Terms of Use.
4. Where data is stored
Scan images and analysis results are stored on your device. We do not operate a user account or cloud backup for your scans in the current version of the App. Uninstalling the App may delete local data depending on your device settings.
5. Third-party services
We use the following categories of providers:
- Google (Gemini API) — processes photos and text to generate AI analysis;
- Apphud — subscription management; may process device identifiers, app events, and purchase-related data. See Apphud’s Privacy Policy;
- Apple App Store / Google Play — payment and subscription billing.
We share only what is necessary for these services to function. Their use of data is governed by their own policies.
6. Permissions
The App may request access to your camera and photo library so you can capture or select images for analysis. You can deny permission; some features will not work without it.
7. Legal bases (EEA/UK)
If you are in the European Economic Area or United Kingdom, we rely on:
- Performance of a contract — to provide the App and analysis you request;
- Consent — where required for processing health-related photos and related data;
- Legitimate interests — to secure and improve the App, where balanced against your rights;
- Legal obligation — where applicable.
8. Retention
Data on your device remains until you delete scans in the App or uninstall the App. Data processed by Google or Apphud is retained according to their policies and our configuration of those services.
9. Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
- Access, correct, or delete personal data we control;
- Object to or restrict certain processing;
- Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent;
- Lodge a complaint with a data protection authority.
Contact: privacy@tsitser.com. You can delete local scans in the App or by uninstalling the App.
10. Children
The App is not intended for children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Contact us if you believe a child has provided data through the App.
11. International transfers
Providers such as Google may process data in countries outside your own, including the United States. Those countries may have different data protection laws.
12. Security
We use reasonable measures to protect data in transit (such as HTTPS for API requests). No system is completely secure.
13. Changes
We may update this Policy. The “Last updated” date will change. Continued use after updates means you accept the revised Policy.
