Privacy & processing

What stays in your workspace

Your original photo, working copy, protection masks, backgrounds, scenes and videos are stored privately. Files require an authenticated account and project ownership on every request. They are not added to a public gallery, marketing examples or a training dataset by Shotmira.

Photo preparation and masks

Photo preparation runs in the configured media worker. It decodes the photo, corrects orientation, converts the working copy to sRGB and removes location and camera metadata from that copy. The original is retained separately. A local background estimate helps you begin the mask; you must check and confirm it yourself.

Background generation

When enabled by the administrator, background generation is routed through the APIMart gateway to a third-party image model (currently an OpenAI gpt-image model). The current integration sends the chosen scene brief and composition instructions, including your optional description; it does not send your uploaded product photo. Keep confidential information out of scene descriptions. Provider retention and commercial-use conditions depend on the actual account and current terms. We do not promise that a provider stores no data or never trains on it without verifying that account configuration.

Silent videos

The configured media worker renders deterministic movement of your selected scene with FFmpeg. No audio, generative video service or new product view is used.

Retention and deletion

Workspace files remain until you delete their project or account. Deletion revokes access immediately. Online storage is queued for the scheduled cleanup job, which runs every 15 minutes when deployed and configured. The target is cleanup within 24 hours; outages can delay physical cleanup. This preview does not claim a verified backup-deletion deadline or permanent erasure before cleanup completes.

Local unsubmitted photo selections are stored only in this browser to survive sign-in and are cleared after an accepted upload. Draft composition settings may remain in browser storage until you clear site data. Successful confirmed masks are saved in the workspace. Failed upload and processing artifacts currently remain private until project deletion; automatic 24-hour/7-day artifact retention is a launch gate.

Account and technical records

Login details, project and task identifiers, allowance activity and technical processing errors support the workspace. Deleting an account revokes sessions and project access. Minimal allowance audit metadata can remain; photos and scene descriptions should not be written to application logs.

Questions

Contact the administrator who invited you for privacy or deletion requests during the preview. A public support channel must be verified before launch.
