4. AI Prompts, Uploaded Files, and Generated Outputs
ChatGPT Image is an AI image generation service. To provide the service, we may process the prompts, files, reference images, and settings you submit, as well as the outputs generated from them.
You should not upload or submit content that includes sensitive personal information unless it is necessary for your intended use. You are responsible for ensuring that your prompts, uploads, and generated outputs comply with applicable laws, third-party rights, and our terms.
We may review prompts, uploads, and outputs automatically or manually for safety, abuse prevention, troubleshooting, legal compliance, and service improvement.
5. Payments and Credits
If you purchase credits or paid services, payment information may be processed by third-party payment providers. We do not need to store full payment card numbers on our own servers when payment processing is handled by a third-party payment processor.
We may store transaction records, order history, credit balances, invoice references, refund records, and related account information as needed to operate the service, resolve disputes, prevent fraud, and comply with financial or legal obligations.
6. How We Share Information
We may share information with:
- service providers that help us operate hosting, databases, storage, authentication, analytics, payments, email, customer support, security, and AI generation;

- payment processors and fraud-prevention providers for billing, checkout, refunds, and risk review;
- professional advisors, such as lawyers, accountants, auditors, or insurers;
- authorities, regulators, courts, or other parties when required by law or necessary to protect rights, safety, security, or prevent fraud;
- another business in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, restructuring, bankruptcy, or sale of assets.
We do not sell your personal information in the ordinary meaning of selling it for money. If applicable privacy laws define certain analytics, advertising, or measurement activities as “sale” or “sharing,” you may have rights to opt out as described below.
7. Third-Party Services
Our service may use third-party tools and infrastructure, such as hosting providers, analytics tools, authentication providers, payment processors, email services, security tools, and AI generation providers.
These third parties may process information according to their own privacy policies and our agreements with them. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party services that you interact with directly.
8. Data Retention
We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the service, maintain user accounts, process payments, deliver credits, store generated outputs, provide support, prevent abuse, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and comply with legal obligations.
