Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how information may be handled when you visit this site, use example services related to Z-Image Turbo and Z-Image-Edit, or interact with any web interfaces built around the Z-Image project. The goal is to keep data handling transparent and understandable.

1. Information We Collect

1.1 Local Usage

When you run Z-Image locally on your own system, your prompts, reference images, and outputs stay under your control. This site and the maintainers of Z-Image do not receive or process that local data. You are responsible for how you store, share, or delete any locally generated content.

1.2 Online Demos and Services

Some deployments of Z-Image Turbo or Z-Image-Edit may expose an online demo. Depending on how that demo is configured, operators may collect limited technical information to keep the service running. This can include:

• Text prompts and image inputs you provide
• Generated images and outputs
• Usage logs and interaction data
• IP addresses and browser information
• Device and system information

1.3 Website Interactions

When you visit this site, basic analytics or logs may be used to understand reliability and usage patterns. This typically includes data such as page views, approximate visit times, and general technical details provided by your browser.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use collected information for the following purposes:

• To provide and improve Z-Image related services and examples
• To process your requests and generate image outputs
• To analyze usage patterns and improve model performance
• To ensure system security and prevent abuse
• To comply with legal obligations
• To communicate with you about service updates or issues

3. Data Storage and Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your data:

• Data is encrypted in transit and at rest
• Access to user data is restricted to authorized personnel only
• Regular security audits and updates are performed
• Data retention periods are limited to what is necessary

4. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We may share your information in the following circumstances:

• Research purposes: Anonymized and aggregated data may be used to understand how Z-Image is used and to guide future improvements
• Legal Requirements: When required by law or to protect our rights and safety
• Service Providers: With trusted third-party providers who assist in operating our services
• Open-source development: Anonymized usage patterns may inform open-source development and documentation

5. Cookies and Tracking

We use cookies and similar technologies to:

• Remember your preferences and settings
• Analyze website traffic and usage patterns
• Improve user experience and service performance
• Provide personalized content and recommendations

You can control cookie settings through your browser preferences.

6. Content and Generated Images

Ownership: You retain ownership of images you generate using Z-Image, subject to any applicable license terms or agreements in your environment. Because many users may explore similar prompts, other outputs may resemble your images even when they were not derived from your content.

Content moderation: Some deployments may include filters or review mechanisms to reduce harmful or unwanted content. Flagged examples may be examined for safety and compliance and then removed or adjusted where appropriate.

7. Data Retention

We retain data for the following periods:

• Generated Images: May be retained temporarily for service operation and quality assurance
• Usage Logs: Typically retained for 90 days unless required for security or legal purposes
• Analytics Data: Aggregated data may be retained indefinitely for research and improvement
• Account Information: Retained until account deletion is requested

8. Your Rights and Choices

You have the following rights regarding your personal data:

• Access: Request access to your personal data, where applicable
• Correction: Request correction of inaccurate data
• Deletion: Request deletion of your personal data, subject to legal and technical constraints
• Portability: Request a copy of your data in a portable format, if supported
• Opt-out: Decline certain data processing activities, such as optional analytics where this is offered

9. International Data Transfers

Z-Image demos and services may be accessed from various countries. Where data crosses borders, appropriate safeguards are applied in line with relevant data protection rules.

10. Children's Privacy

Z-Image is not intended for use by children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that information from a child under 13 has been collected, we will take steps to remove it as soon as reasonably possible.

11. Open Source Considerations

Z-Image is open-source software. When you use the local version, your privacy is generally enhanced because data does not need to leave your machine. If you contribute code, documentation, or examples to the project, those contributions may be stored and displayed in public code hosting platforms under their own terms.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in practices, services, or applicable laws. When changes are significant, a short notice may be added to this site to highlight the update.
