Hi, I’m Jess.

Say I upload a photo of Ruby at the beach and pick Space Explorer.

The photo goes to an image model. It looks at her face and works out what she looks like: her hair, her eyes, the gap in her front teeth. Then it draws her as an astronaut in different poses, about 8 stickers on one sheet.

What comes back is a drawing. It isn’t your photo with the background cut out and a helmet pasted on top. The beach is gone. Your original photo isn’t in the sheet anywhere.

That’s also why it sometimes gets her wrong. You see the whole sheet before you order anything, and you can reword it and run it again.

Drawing your sheet means sending your photo to companies that aren’t us. This is all of them.

• Google Runs image models we draw your sheet with. Gets your photo and the words you typed.
• OpenAI Same job. Gets your photo and the words you typed.
• fal.ai Helps finish the artwork once your sheet is drawn. Gets the drawing, not your photo.
• Google Cloud Where your account, your designs and your orders are stored.

We’re on paid business accounts with all of them, where training on customer content is switched off, and our contracts say the same. None of them may use your photo for their own purposes.

That’s the whole list. Your photo doesn’t go to advertisers or data brokers, and it isn’t for sale at any price.

Before the file picker opens, you choose. Keep it on this device is already selected: the photo is stored in your own browser, sent to us each time you make a sheet, used to draw it, and not kept afterwards. It’s there for your next sheet without us holding a copy.

Save it to my account is the other option, for when you want the same photo on your laptop. That one we store, and the only thing it’s ever used for is letting you pick it again. It’s encrypted, it’s locked to your account, and it’s listed in Settings under Uploaded Photos. Delete it there and it’s gone from our servers.

A few things I can’t promise away, so you may as well hear them from me.

If you’ve bought stickers, Australian tax law makes me keep the order for seven years. Your address and what you bought stay on file even after you delete your account. The photo doesn’t.

Deleting isn’t instant either. A design leaves your library the moment you delete it, but the image files behind it are cleared by a job that runs within 30 days.

And while a sheet is being drawn, a copy of your photo sits on our storage. That’s what lets the job finish if it moves to another server halfway through. It goes as soon as the sheet finishes or fails, and anything left behind is swept within two days.

We don’t train AI models on your photos, and we require the companies above not to either. We don’t sell them or license them to anyone. Nobody else can see your photo, and it never turns up in someone else’s designs.

One thing I ask back. If the photo is of a child, uploading it means you’re their parent or guardian, or you have the guardian’s okay. Sticker Me Club is built for grown-ups to use, and we don’t knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 (16 in some places).

Delete a design and it leaves your library; the images behind it go within 30 days. Want the lot gone? There’s a Delete Account button in Settings, or email privacy@stickerme.club and we’ll do the same. Either way it’s done within 30 days, minus those order records.
