• Images and texts are transmitted to the service for processing.

  • We do not store images or texts after processing; they are held only in memory long enough to generate a response.

• Alt-text generation is performed on AiGude–managed infrastructure located in the European Union. Image files are sent over HTTPS to this infrastructure. No third-party vendors are used for alt-text generation.

• Translations are performed via the DeepL API. Only the text to be translated and language parameters are transmitted to DeepL; images are not sent. Processing occurs on DeepL’s infrastructure. See the DeepL Privacy Policy.
