How we handle your child's photo
Last updated 9 October 2026
- Only parents and legal guardians may upload a child's photo, and you confirm that each time you upload one.
- The photo is used once, to create a cartoon avatar. To do that it is sent to OpenAI, or to Google Gemini if OpenAI can't make an avatar from it. Stories use the avatar, not the photo.
- The original photo is deleted automatically as soon as you choose an avatar (or after 7 days if you don't), unless you choose to keep it. Avatars you don't pick are deleted too.
- Photos and avatars are stored privately and are never public.
- You can delete the photo, the avatar, or the whole child profile at any time. Stories already made keep their pictures until you delete them.
- We never use your child's photo to train AI models, and our AI providers' paid business services don't use it for training either.
