Privacy policy
Last updated: November 13, 2026
Draft — pending attorney review. Not final. This policy describes how the BuyDesign app and website are built to work. It will be reviewed by counsel before public launch.
BuyDesign is made by Great Dane Holdings LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company operating from Lake County, Florida. The service is offered in the United States only. Photos of your home are private data, and we treat them that way.
What we collect
- Account data. Your email address and an authentication identifier. If you use Sign in with Apple, we may receive only the email you choose to share.
- Room photos. The photos you take or upload to redesign a room. GPS location and other camera metadata (EXIF) are stripped on your device before upload. Photos are stored in private storage and served only through short-lived signed links.
- Your content. Style choices, short prompts, generated renders, saved rooms, saved items, and messages you send to support.
- Purchases. Subscription and purchase status (trial, renewal, cancellation, expiration) from Apple's App Store and our subscription processor. We never receive or store full payment card numbers.
- Usage needed to run the service. Render credits and usage are recorded on our servers so limits apply fairly. We may collect masked usage analytics that do not include your photos, prompts, or email.
- Affiliate clicks. When you tap out to a retailer, we send a one-time click identifier so a purchase can be attributed for commission, and keep an internal record of which identifiers were sent.
- Anti-abuse signals. Rate and risk signals, and advisory device-integrity signals (such as Apple App Attest or DeviceCheck). These are never the sole basis of an automated decision with legal or similarly significant effects.
- Waitlist. On this website: your email address, a timestamp, and the page you signed up from — used only to tell you about BuyDesign availability and for legally required notices. Not sold. Deleted on request.
How photos are processed
Redesigning and item matching run on our servers through third-party AI providers. The image-generation provider is currently Google (the Gemini API). Provider API keys never ship inside the app. Our providers are contracted not to use customer content to train their models; a provider may retain a copy for a limited abuse-monitoring period under its own terms.
Services we rely on
- Supabase — authentication, database, and file storage.
- Google (Gemini API) — AI image processing, as above.
- RevenueCat and the Apple App Store (later, Google Play) — subscriptions and purchases.
- This website: pages are served with fonts from Google Fonts, so Google receives standard request data (such as your IP address) when font files load; waitlist signups are stored in a managed Postgres database hosted by Neon or Vercel Postgres.
What we don't do
- We do not sell your personal information or your photos.
- We do not use your photos in marketing without a separate, explicit rights process.
- We may later create aggregate, de-identified trend insights that cannot identify you or your home.
Retention
- Photos used without saving a room are deleted in about 24 hours.
- Saved rooms and their photos are kept 30 days by default, unless you choose to keep them longer, and until you delete them or your account.
- Account and purchase-ledger records are kept while your account is active.
- After deletion, removal from active systems and instructions to our processors generally complete within 30 days. Residual copies may remain in encrypted backups until those backups expire.
Deleting your account
In the app: Settings → Delete account → confirm — designed to be reachable in three taps. Or email hello@buydesignapp.com from the address on your account. Full instructions: delete your account.
Children
BuyDesign is intended for users 13 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Please don't upload photos of children without appropriate consent.
Your rights
Depending on your state, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or receive a copy of your personal information, and to opt out of certain processing. U.S. state privacy laws (including California's CCPA/CPRA) and the treatment of home photos as sensitive data are under attorney review for this policy. To exercise any right, email hello@buydesignapp.com.
Changes and contact
We'll post updates to this page with a new date. Questions: hello@buydesignapp.com · Great Dane Holdings LLC, Lake County, FL.
