Clairfy ("we", "us") is an image-detection tool at clairfy.ai that analyzes user-submitted images to determine whether they were generated by AI. This policy describes what we collect, why, and how you can control it.
What we collect
- Account data (signed-in users only): name, email, profile image, phone number if provided. Handled through a third-party identity provider; we mirror the fields we need into our own database to power your history.
- Images you submit: stored in secure cloud object storage so we can serve them back to you and re-display past checks. We do not share or sell submitted images.
- Detection results: the verdict, confidence, rationale, and visual evidence produced by the model are saved against your account (or, for anonymous users, against the rate-limit row only).
- Device and network metadata: when you submit a check, we record basic request metadata (including IP-level signals) to enforce rate limits, detect abuse, and keep the service running. This applies to both anonymous and signed-in users.
- Cookies and similar: a session cookie is set when you sign in. That is the only cookie we set — there is no advertising or tracking cookie.
How we use it
- To run the detector you asked for and return a result.
- To remember your past checks so you can revisit them.
- To enforce the demo's rate limit and spend cap, and to prevent abuse.
- For aggregate, non-identifying analytics on cost, model accuracy, and usage trends.
Who processes it
We rely on a small set of established third-party service providers to deliver the product. Each is used strictly to perform a specific function:
- AI inference — a managed AI inference platform runs the vision model against your submitted image. Per its provider terms, customer inputs are not used to train foundation models.
- Image storage — cloud object storage hosted in the United States.
- Database — a managed relational database for accounts, results, and configuration.
- Application hosting — a managed application host for the API and a content delivery network for the web app.
- Authentication — a third-party identity and authentication provider.
A current list of the specific named sub-processors is maintained for compliance purposes and is available on request — email [email protected].
Advertising and payments
Neither applies. Clairfy previously ran an ad-supported free tier and a paid subscription; both were switched off in August 2026 when the project wound down. No ads are served, no ad network is loaded, and no payment details are collected or processed.
Data retention
- Account and detection history persist until you delete your account.
- Submitted images are retained alongside the detection result and removed on account deletion.
- Anonymous rate-limit rows roll off once the rate-limit window has passed.
Your rights
- Access and export: contact us and we'll provide a dump of your account data.
- Deletion: delete your account from the user menu, or email us to do it. We remove account records and associated images.
- EU/UK/California residents have additional rights under GDPR / UK GDPR / CCPA — contact us to exercise them or to receive the named list of sub-processors required for your request.
Children
Clairfy is not directed to children under 13 (or under 16 in the EEA/UK). We do not knowingly collect data from children in that age range; if you believe we have, contact us and we will delete it.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as the product evolves. Material changes will be noted by updating the "Last updated" date above and, where appropriate, by an in-app notice.
