1. Introduction

Frames (“we”, “us”, or “our”) is a premium event photo and video sharing platform. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about how we handle your data. This Privacy Policy explains what we collect, why we collect it, and the choices you have.

By using Frames, you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree, please do not use our service.

  • Account information: Your name, email address, and password (encrypted) when you create an account.
  • Event information: Event titles, dates, descriptions, and cover photos you create.
  • Uploaded content: Photos and videos uploaded to your event galleries by you and your guests.
  • Usage data: Information about how you use Frames, including device type, browser, and interaction data.
  • Payment information: Billing details processed securely through our payment provider (Stripe). We do not store your full card number.

3. How We Use Your Information

  • To provide and maintain the Frames service, including creating and displaying your event galleries.
  • To process payments and manage your subscription.
  • To send you important account and service notifications.
  • To provide customer support and respond to your inquiries.
  • To improve our service, fix bugs, and develop new features.
  • To detect, prevent, and address fraud, abuse, and security issues.
  • To comply with our legal obligations.

4. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell your personal information. We share data only in the following circumstances:

  • Service providers: Trusted third parties who help us operate Frames (e.g., cloud storage, payment processing, email delivery). These providers are bound by confidentiality obligations.
  • Event guests: Photos and videos uploaded to an event gallery are visible to other guests with access to that gallery.
  • Legal compliance: If required by law, court order, or to protect our rights and safety.
  • Business transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, your data may be transferred. We will notify you before this happens.

5. Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your data, including encryption in transit and at rest, secure cloud storage, and regular security reviews. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security, but we work hard to protect your information.

6. Data Retention

We retain your uploaded content for the duration of your gallery's active period (7 days for Starter, 30 days for Pro, permanently for Unlimited). After expiration, content is permanently deleted from our servers. Account data is retained for as long as your account is active. You can request deletion of your account and associated data at any time.
