Hueco is an app designed with privacy as its core principle, dedicated to providing you with secure and reliable old photo restoration services. Our commitment is simple: all your data remains under your complete control, and we never compromise your privacy for any reason. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle your information when you use Hueco, with a strong emphasis on our strict policy of not collecting any facial information or face data.
We do not collect any facial information or face data from you, under any circumstances. This means we never access, extract, store, or transmit any facial features, facial recognition data, or any form of biometric information related to your face. Whether you upload a photo containing human faces, take a new photo within the app, or use any of our photo restoration features, we do not process, analyze, or retain any facial information from those images. Your facial data is never touched by our app, and it remains entirely on your local device, accessible only to you. We have no mechanism, tool, or process in place to collect, extract, or use facial information, and we will never add any such functionality in the future.
Hueco is designed to be fully usable without the need for you to create an account, log in, or provide any personal identification information. You can immediately access all of the app’s features—including photo restoration, before-and-after comparison, and saved records—without entering an email address, password, or any other personal details. This means we never collect, store, or process any account-related information, as no account is required to use the app.
Since no account is required to use Hueco, we have no need to collect any personal information—including facial information—to verify your identity or manage your account. We do not collect facial information for any purpose, including account creation, user authentication, or feature personalization, because there are no accounts to manage. Even if you choose to use the app’s full range of features, your facial data remains private on your device, and we never access or collect it.
All information you process using Hueco is handled entirely locally on your device. This includes the photos you upload from your device’s library, the new photos you take within the app, and the restored versions of those photos. We do not transmit your photos, restoration data, or any other information to our servers, third-party services, or any external location. All processing—including AI-powered photo restoration, color enhancement, and image adjustment—happens directly on your device, ensuring your data never leaves your control.
When you delete a photo or a restored record within Hueco, the information is permanently removed from your device. We do not retain any backups, copies, or residual data of the photos you delete, and we have no way to recover or access deleted content. Your photos and restoration results are stored only in your device’s local storage, and you have full authority to manage, edit, or delete them at any time.
Because all data processing and storage occur locally on your device, we never have the opportunity to collect any facial information from your photos. Even during the AI restoration process, which is performed entirely on your device, our app does not extract, analyze, or store any facial features. The AI model used for photo restoration focuses solely on enhancing image quality, color, and clarity— it does not identify, process, or retain any facial information. Your facial data stays on your device, and we never access or collect it, even temporarily.
Hueco’s core feature is photo restoration: turning black and white or faded images into vivid, colorful versions using AI models. To provide this service, the app only accesses the photos you explicitly choose to upload from your device’s library or take within the app. This access is granted solely to process the image for restoration purposes, and it is limited to the specific images you select—we do not access your entire photo library without your explicit permission.
After restoration, Hueco provides a simple before-and-after view so you can compare the original and restored versions. You can save the restored image to your device’s photo library, reupload a different image, or delete the restored result—all actions are performed locally on your device. We do not track which photos you restore, how many times you use the app, or any details about the content of your photos.
Our photo restoration process does not involve collecting, processing, or storing any facial information. Even if the photos you restore contain human faces, our AI models do not extract or analyze facial features. The restoration process focuses on improving overall image quality—such as fixing faded colors, reducing blurriness, or converting black and white to color—without identifying or retaining any facial data. We do not use facial recognition technology, and we do not collect any information related to your face or the faces of others in your photos. Your facial privacy is fully protected during every step of the restoration process.
Hueco includes a records screen where your restored photos are organized by time for easy access. This records feature is stored entirely on your device, and it only contains the restored images you have chosen to keep. You can open restored images in full screen, save them again to your photo library, share them (via your device’s native sharing features, which we do not track), or delete records you no longer need.
The records screen is designed to help you organize your restored memories conveniently, and all management actions are controlled by you. We do not sync these records to any external servers, and we do not collect any data about the records you create, edit, or delete.
The records screen does not collect or store any facial information. The restored images in your records are stored locally on your device, and we never access, extract, or process any facial features from these images. Even if a restored record contains a photo with a face, we do not collect any facial data associated with it. Deleting a record from the app permanently removes the restored image from your device, and we have no way to recover or access the facial information (or any other data) from the deleted record. Your facial data remains private and under your control at all times.
Hueco does not integrate any third-party services, tools, or SDKs (Software Development Kits) that collect or process your data. We do not share your photos, restoration results, or any other information with third parties, including advertisers, analytics providers, or other app developers. There are no external connections or data transfers from the app—all your information stays on your device.
We do not use any third-party tools for analytics, advertising, or data collection. This means we never track your usage habits, app interactions, or any other data that could be used to identify you or your preferences. Your privacy is not compromised by any third-party involvement.
Since we do not use any third-party services, there is no possibility of third parties collecting your facial information through Hueco. We never share any of your data—including photos that may contain facial features—with third parties. We do not authorize any external entities to access your device’s data, and we do not allow any third-party tools to extract or process facial information from your photos. Your facial privacy is protected from third-party access entirely.
Hueco provides clear and easy access to this Privacy Policy and our User Agreement within the app. You can view these documents at any time to understand how we handle your data, our commitment to privacy, and your rights as a user. We strive to make these documents clear and straightforward, so you can always be informed about how your information is protected.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our app’s features or our privacy practices. Any updates will be posted within the app, and you can review the latest version at any time. We will never make changes that reduce your privacy protections or start collecting information we previously did not collect.
Our Privacy Policy and User Agreement explicitly state our commitment to not collecting any facial information. These documents clearly outline that we never access, extract, store, or transmit any facial data, and they detail the steps we take to ensure your facial privacy is protected. Any updates to these documents will continue to emphasize our strict no-facial-information-collection policy, and we will never modify our practices to collect facial information without explicit, clear notice—but we will never collect it at all, regardless of updates.
If you have any questions, concerns, or feedback about this Privacy Policy, or about Hueco’s privacy practices, please feel free to contact us at any time. We are committed to addressing your inquiries promptly and transparently.
