Where applicable privacy laws require a legal basis for processing personal information, we may rely on one or more of the following legal bases depending on the circumstances:
Customer-uploaded images are an important part of our business. Customers may provide unpublished product photography, e-commerce images, advertising materials, creative assets, personal photographs, artwork, and other commercially valuable files.
We generally process uploaded files only as reasonably necessary to provide the requested service, prepare quotations, perform editing, conduct quality control, handle revisions, provide customer support, and deliver completed work.
We do not intend to sell customer project images as advertising products or make customer project files publicly available for marketing purposes without appropriate authorization.
Customers are responsible for ensuring that they have the necessary rights, licenses, permissions, and authority to submit files to Clipping Path America for processing.
If a customer has specific confidentiality, non-disclosure, security, or file-handling requirements, those requirements should be discussed with us before submitting the relevant files.
We retain customer files and related information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which they were collected, including service delivery, revisions, customer support, dispute resolution, accounting, security, legal compliance, and legitimate business requirements.
Retention periods may differ depending on the type of information, project requirements, operational systems, backup procedures, contractual obligations, and applicable legal requirements.
When information is no longer reasonably required, it may be deleted, anonymized, archived, or securely disposed of according to our applicable retention practices.
Information that has been deleted from active systems may remain for a limited period in secure backups or disaster-recovery systems until those backups expire or are overwritten through normal processes.
Some image editing workflows may use automation, artificial intelligence, machine learning, background-removal tools, image enhancement systems, or other computer-assisted technologies.
Where third-party technology providers are used, customer files may be processed through those services where reasonably necessary to provide the requested service. Processing may be subject to the provider's contractual terms, privacy practices, technical configuration, and applicable laws.
We do not intentionally sell private customer image collections to unrelated AI companies for commercial model-training purposes. Customers who prohibit automated processing should notify us before submitting files so that appropriate arrangements can be considered.
Automated tools may be combined with human review and quality control to improve accuracy and service quality.

Depending on the system, security measures may include access controls, authentication, encrypted connections, restricted administrative access, monitoring, backups, security tools, and other appropriate safeguards.
