Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 8, 2026

InkFlash is operated by an individual, not a company. This Privacy Policy explains how InkFlash ("we", "us") collects, uses and protects information when you use getinkflash.com (the "Service"). For privacy questions or requests, contact us at support@getinkflash.com.

Information we collect

  1. Account information — your name and email address when you sign up, and your profile picture if you choose Google sign-in.
  2. Content you provide — files, text or other inputs you submit to the Service, and the outputs generated for you.
  3. Usage data — pages visited, features used, device and browser type, and approximate location derived from IP address. To count visits we use Vercel Web Analytics, which records page views in aggregate (page, referrer, country, device and browser type). It does not use cookies, does not store anything on your device and does not follow you across sites, so it runs whether or not you accept the cookie banner.
  4. Cookies — essential cookies keep you signed in. If free tries without an account are available, we also set one first-party cookie (inkflash_guest, a random ID kept for up to 30 days) and store your design description, the result and a salted hash of your IP address (never the IP address itself) for up to 30 days. We use them only to enforce the one-free-try limit and prevent abuse, not for analytics. If you choose Accept on our cookie banner, Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity also set cookies (such as _ga and _clck) so we can see which pages and designs are used and how people use them. If you choose Decline, we do not load either tool or set their cookies. You can change your choice at any time with “Cookie settings” in the footer.

How we use information

  • To provide, maintain and improve the Service
  • To manage credits, purchases and subscriptions
  • To send transactional emails related to your account
  • To prevent fraud and abuse
  • To understand usage and improve the product

We do not sell your personal information.

Your content

You own the content you upload and the outputs you generate. We process it to provide the Service. Generated designs are stored so you can download them again from your account. Generated image files are accessible to anyone who has their public image URL. Contact us to request deletion of your content.

Third-party services

We use service providers to run InkFlash: Vercel for hosting, Neon for the database, Cloudflare R2 for file storage, Resend for email delivery, Waffo to process payments, and OpenRouter to route your design descriptions to OpenAI's GPT Image 2.5 Flare model. If you choose Google sign-in, Google provides your basic account information to us. If you accept analytics cookies, Google Analytics (Google LLC) receives your page views, the buttons you click, approximate location, and device and browser information, and gives us aggregated usage reports. We have turned off Google signals and ad personalization, and we do not use this data for advertising. Microsoft Clarity (Microsoft Corporation) records how you use the site, such as clicks, scrolling and mouse movement, as session replays and heatmaps that we use to find confusing parts of the site; we mask what you type into the design box. When you pay, Waffo collects your payment details and processes the charge; your card details are handled by Waffo and are never stored by InkFlash. We receive order information such as your order number, the product, the amount and the payment status.

Data retention

We keep account data while your account is active. You may request deletion of your account and generated content by emailing us. We may retain information where required for legal, security or accounting reasons.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, export or delete your data, to object to certain processing, and to withdraw your consent to analytics cookies at any time. Email support@getinkflash.com to make a request.

Children

The Service is not directed to children under 13 (or 16 in the EEA), and we do not knowingly collect their data.

Changes

We may update this policy. We will post the new version here and update the date above.
