Privacy Policy

How SciFigureAI collects, uses, and protects personal data

2026/05/26

Overview

This Privacy Policy explains how SciFigureAI collects, uses, discloses, and protects information when you use scifigureai.com, our AI scientific figure generation tools, accounts, payment features, email communications, and related services.

This policy is intended to describe our product practices. It is not a contract for any specific jurisdiction. If a law gives you additional rights, we will honor those rights as required by applicable law.

Information We Collect

We collect information in the following categories.

Account and Profile Information

When you create or manage an account, we may collect your name, email address, profile image, email verification status, account role, account status, and internal user identifiers. If you sign in with Google or GitHub, we receive account information made available by that provider, such as your email address, name, profile image, and provider account identifier.

Authentication and Security Information

We collect information needed to authenticate and protect your account, including session identifiers, hashed passwords where password login is used, verification and password reset tokens, API keys you create, IP address, browser user agent, timestamps, ban status, and related security metadata.

Scientific Figure Inputs and Generated Content

When you use SciFigureAI to create a scientific figure, graphical abstract, mechanism diagram, protocol workflow, or similar output, we collect the information you provide and the information generated by the service. This may include figure type, research field, input mode, research content, required elements, style, layout, aspect ratio, landing page source, locale, example identifier, UTM parameters, generated figure configurations, image descriptions, service task identifiers, service responses, error messages, generated image URLs, storage keys, image dimensions, MIME type, selected asset status, watermark status, and quality level.

Please do not upload or submit confidential, sensitive, regulated, or third-party data unless you have the rights and permissions needed to use it with SciFigureAI.

Payment, Subscription, and Credit Information

When you purchase a subscription or credit package, we collect and store payment-related records needed to operate billing and credits. This may include Stripe customer identifiers, price identifiers, plan identifiers, package identifiers, checkout session identifiers, subscription identifiers, invoice identifiers, payment status, billing period dates, trial dates, cancellation status, credit balances, credit transaction history, and payment metadata.

SciFigureAI does not store full payment card numbers. Payment details are processed by Stripe.

Communications and Newsletter Information

If you contact us, subscribe to the newsletter, request password reset emails, verify your email address, or receive service messages, we may collect your name, email address, message content, subscription status, email delivery metadata, and related support information.

Usage, Device, Analytics, and Attribution Information

We may collect information about how you use the site and application, including pages visited, referrers, interactions, feature usage, approximate location derived from IP address, device type, browser, operating system, language, session data, performance data, and marketing attribution identifiers. Some of this information may be collected through cookies, local storage, pixels, or similar technologies, as described in our Cookie Policy.

How We Use Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • provide, maintain, secure, and improve SciFigureAI;
  • create and manage accounts, sessions, authentication, and API keys;
  • generate scientific figure drafts and related assets;
  • save projects, generation requests, outputs, and selected assets;
  • process subscriptions, credit purchases, renewals, cancellations, invoices, and customer portal requests;
  • distribute, consume, expire, and audit credits;
  • send transactional emails, verification emails, password reset emails, support replies, and newsletter messages;
  • monitor performance, debug errors, prevent abuse, enforce limits, and protect the service;
  • understand usage, improve conversion flows, measure marketing campaigns, and attribute revenue when analytics or affiliate tools are enabled;
  • comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms of Service.

Depending on applicable law, our basis for processing may include performing a contract with you, our legitimate interests in operating and improving the service, your consent, and compliance with legal obligations.

How We Share Information

We do not sell personal information for money. We may share information in the following ways:

  • Service providers: We share information with vendors that help us operate hosting, authentication, payments, email, storage, AI generation, analytics, support, security, notifications, and affiliate attribution.
  • Third-party login providers: If you sign in with Google or GitHub, your login is processed through that provider.
  • Payment processing: Stripe processes payment details and may receive customer, checkout, subscription, invoice, and billing information.
  • AI generation and storage services: We may send prompts, generated image descriptions, task identifiers, generated images, and related metadata to configured AI generation and storage services to create and store your outputs.
  • Legal and safety reasons: We may disclose information if required by law, legal process, or to protect rights, safety, security, and service integrity.
  • Business transfers: If SciFigureAI is involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, restructuring, or sale of assets, information may be transferred as part of that transaction.

Third-Party Services

SciFigureAI may use the following third-party services, depending on which features are enabled in production:

  • Stripe for checkout, subscriptions, invoices, customer portals, and payment processing;
  • Resend for transactional email and newsletter contact management;
  • S3-compatible storage, including Cloudflare R2 or another configured storage provider, for generated image assets;
  • Third-party AI services for figure planning and image generation;
  • Google and GitHub for OAuth sign-in;
  • analytics tools such as Google Analytics, Umami, Plausible, Ahrefs, DataFast, OpenPanel, Seline, PostHog, Microsoft Clarity, Vercel Analytics, or Vercel Speed Insights when configured;
  • Crisp for customer chat when enabled;
  • Cloudflare Turnstile for bot protection when enabled;
  • Discord or Feishu for operational notifications when enabled;
  • Affonso or PromoteKit for affiliate attribution when enabled.

These providers process information under their own terms and privacy policies. We recommend reviewing the policies of any third-party service that you interact with directly.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies for authentication, locale preferences, UI preferences, security, analytics, affiliate attribution, performance measurement, and other features. Some cookies are necessary for the service to work. Other cookies or pixels may depend on optional analytics, chat, affiliate, or marketing tools. See our Cookie Policy for more detail.

Data Retention

We keep information for as long as needed to provide SciFigureAI, maintain your account and projects, process billing and credits, comply with legal and tax requirements, resolve disputes, prevent abuse, and enforce our agreements.

Generated projects, generation requests, assets, payment records, credit transactions, and logs may remain in backups or records for a limited period after deletion. Some billing, security, and compliance records may need to be kept even after an account is closed.

Your Choices and Rights

You may update certain account information in the application. If account deletion is enabled, you may request or perform account deletion through account settings. You may unsubscribe from newsletters using the unsubscribe tools we provide.

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, export, restrict, or object to certain processing of your personal information. You may also have the right to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent. To make a privacy request, contact us at [email protected].

International Processing

SciFigureAI and its service providers may process information in countries other than the one where you live. Those countries may have data protection laws that differ from the laws in your jurisdiction.

Children

SciFigureAI is not intended for children. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, contact us so we can take appropriate action.

Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure. No system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make changes, we will update the date above and post the revised policy on this page. If changes are material, we may provide additional notice as appropriate.
