1. Overview

This Privacy Policy applies to YourSkinGPT, accessible at yourskingpt.com (“the Website”, “we”, “us”, “our”). By using our website and AI skin analysis tool, you agree to the collection and use of information as described in this policy.

We take your privacy seriously. This policy is written in plain language so you can clearly understand what we do with your data — no legal jargon.

2. Data We Collect

We collect the following information when you use our AI skin analysis tool:

• Email address — provided voluntarily before your skin analysis to send you your personalized routine
• Questionnaire answers — your age range, self-reported skin type, sensitivity level, skin concerns, water intake, and sleep quality
• Usage data — basic analytics such as pages visited, time on site, browser type, and general geographic region (country level only) via Google Analytics
• Cookie data — see Section 5 for full details

We do not collect your full name, phone number, address, payment information, or any sensitive personal data beyond what is listed above.

3. Photos & Images

The AI analysis of your photo is performed in real time. Once your results are displayed, no image data is retained by us or our AI service providers beyond the duration of the analysis request.

We strongly recommend uploading photos in good natural lighting with your face clearly visible for the most accurate analysis results.

4. How We Use Your Data

We use the data we collect for the following purposes only:

• To deliver your personalized AI skin analysis and routine results
• To send your skincare routine to your email address (one-time delivery)
• To enforce our daily usage limit (one free analysis per user per day)
• To improve the accuracy and performance of our skin analysis tool
• To understand how visitors use our website through anonymized analytics
• To display relevant advertisements through Google AdSense

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to any third party for marketing purposes. We do not send unsolicited marketing emails beyond your requested skincare routine.

5. Cookies

YourSkinGPT uses cookies and similar local storage technologies to improve your experience. Here is exactly what we use and why:

• Usage rate limiting — we store a local cookie to track whether you have used your one free daily analysis, so we can enforce the daily limit fairly
• Google Analytics cookies — these help us understand visitor behavior anonymously (pages viewed, session duration, geographic region)
• Google AdSense cookies — Google uses cookies to show you relevant advertisements based on your browsing history and interests. See Section 7 for more details.

You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings at any time. Note that disabling cookies may affect the functionality of our daily usage limit feature.

6. Affiliate Links

YourSkinGPT participates in affiliate marketing programs. This means that when our AI recommends a skincare product and you click the link and make a purchase, we may receive a small commission from the retailer at no additional cost to you.

Our affiliate partnerships include but are not limited to Sephora, Dermstore, Paula’s Choice, and other skincare retailers. All product recommendations are generated by our AI based solely on your skin analysis results — not based on which brands pay higher commissions.

Affiliate links on our website are marked with rel="nofollow sponsored" in accordance with Google’s guidelines and FTC disclosure requirements.

7. Google AdSense & Advertising

We use Google AdSense to display advertisements on our website. Google AdSense uses cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to our website and other websites on the internet.

• Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to our site and other sites on the internet
• You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings
• You may also opt out of third-party vendor use of cookies by visiting aboutads.info

8. Third Party Services

We use the following third party services to operate our website. Each has their own privacy policy governing their use of your data:

• Groq AI — powers our skin analysis AI. Your photo and questionnaire answers are sent to Groq for processing. Groq does not retain user data beyond the duration of the API request.
• Google Analytics — anonymous website usage tracking
• Google AdSense — advertising platform
• Hostinger — website hosting provider

We do not share your personally identifiable information with any third parties beyond what is required to operate these services.
