Contact requests may include your email address, message, attachments and account reference.

Social Media Login Data. We may provide you with the option to register with us using your existing social media account details, like your Google account. If you choose to register this way, we will need to collect the necessary information.

OpenGen may collect a variety of visitor data such as language preferences, IP addresses, browser settings, operating systems, date/time stamps, and clickstream data (collectively “Visitor Data”).

How Do We Process Your Information?

In Short: We process your information to provide, improve, and administer our Services, communicate with you, for security and fraud prevention, and to comply with law. We may also process your information for other purposes with your consent.

We may process Personal Data for the following purposes:

To Provide the OpenGen Services

We process information so that we can provide the functionality you request, including to:

To Process User Content Through AI Providers

Generation requests are routed through OpenRouter to downstream AI providers. Prompts, uploaded reference media, model selection and generation parameters needed for the request may be shared with them. Uploaded media may be accessed through a media URL while the request is processed.

OpenGen does not train its own AI models with your content. OpenRouter and its downstream providers have their own processing, retention and training policies, which can differ by provider and model. This site does not guarantee zero data retention or training exclusion across all providers. Review provider information before sending sensitive content.

Uploads and generated media are stored in configured AWS S3 storage or local service storage. Generation history and account records are stored by the service. Storage access and retention differ from the practices of external AI providers.

To Manage Accounts and Authentication

We may process your information to create your Account, authenticate access, maintain Account functionality, protect your Account against unauthorized access, and communicate important Account-related information to you.

To Process Purchases and Subscriptions

We process Personal Data to:

To Communicate With You

We may use your information to:

Certain transactional or Service-related communications are necessary to operate your Account and cannot be opted out of while you continue using the relevant Service.

To Send Marketing and Promotional Communications

Where permitted by applicable law, we may use Personal Data to send promotional or marketing communications regarding OpenGen products, features, offers, or services.

You may opt out of promotional emails at any time by using the unsubscribe link included in those emails or contacting us.

Opting out of marketing communications does not prevent us from sending non-promotional communications regarding your Account, security, purchases, subscriptions, or the operation of the Service.

To Understand and Improve the Service

We may process usage and technical information to:

Where possible and appropriate, we may use aggregated or de-identified information for these purposes.

To Prevent Fraud, Abuse, and Security Incidents

We may process information to:

This may involve automated tools designed to identify potentially fraudulent, harmful, prohibited, or abusive activity.

To Comply With Legal Obligations

We may process and retain information where reasonably necessary to:

Legal Bases for Processing

Where applicable data protection laws require us to identify a legal basis for processing Personal Data, we may rely on one or more of the following:

Performance of a contract: when processing is necessary to provide the Service you requested.

Legitimate interests: when processing is reasonably necessary for our legitimate business interests, including operating, improving, securing, and protecting OpenGen, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights.

Consent: where we ask for and receive your consent for a particular processing activity.

Legal obligations: where processing is necessary to comply with applicable laws or legal requirements.

With Whom We Share Your Personal Data

In Short: We may share information in specific situations described in this section and/or with the following categories of third parties.

We may disclose Personal Data to categories of third parties including:

Third-party providers may only receive information reasonably necessary for the relevant purpose, subject to applicable contractual and legal requirements.

AI Model and Generation Providers

Requests are shared with OpenRouter and the downstream provider processing the selected model, as described above. The data shared depends on the generation settings and reference media you submit. Deleting content from this service does not establish that an external provider has deleted its own retained copy.

Payment Processors

Payment information necessary to complete Purchases may be provided directly to payment processors and other financial service providers.

Those providers may process your information according to their own privacy notices in addition to performing services for OpenGen.

Analytics and Advertising Partners

The current site does not integrate analytics or advertising tracking. If this changes, the relevant recipients, purposes and any required privacy choices must be disclosed before those tools are enabled.

Business Transfers

Where appropriate, the recipient will be required to respect Personal Data in a manner consistent with applicable law.

Disclosures to Protect Us or Others

We may access, preserve, or disclose information if we reasonably believe doing so is necessary or appropriate to:

How Do We Handle Your Social Logins?

In Short: If you choose to register or log in to our Services using a social media account, we may have access to certain information about you.

Our Services offer you the ability to register and log in using your Google login, Apple Login and more. When you choose to do this, we will receive certain profile information about you from Google or Apple. The profile information we receive may vary depending on the information you choose to make public on your Google or Apple account, but will often include your name and email address.

How Long Do We Keep Your Information?

In Short: We keep your information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this privacy notice unless otherwise required by law.

We will only keep your personal information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out in this privacy notice, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting, or other legal requirements).

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

How Do We Keep Your Information Safe?

In Short: We aim to protect your personal information through a system of organizational and technical security measures

We use authentication, access controls and request-security checks to protect account actions and stored records. No internet transmission or storage technology can be guaranteed completely secure. Deleted content may remain in backups, caches, or copies retained by third parties according to their own practices.

User Content, Images, Videos, and Personal Data

Because OpenGen allows users to upload and generate visual content, User Content may contain Personal Data relating to you or other individuals.

For example, photographs and videos may reveal:

OpenGen processes such information primarily to provide the feature or generation requested by you.

You should not upload photographs, videos, recordings, or other Personal Data relating to another individual unless you have the necessary rights, permissions, or other lawful basis to do so.

You should avoid uploading highly sensitive Personal Data unless it is necessary for your intended use of the Service and you understand the risks associated with providing that information.

Do We Collect Information From Minors?

In Short: We do not knowingly collect data from or market to children under 18 years of age.

We do not knowingly solicit data from children under 18 years of age. By using the Services, you represent that you are at least 18 or that you are the parent or guardian of such a minor and consent to such minor dependent’s use of the Services.
