Privacy Policy

Welcome to Antique Scanner. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the security of your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your data when you use our service.

We collect the following types of information: • Account Information: When you sign in (with Google or by email code), we receive profile information such as your email address and display name to identify your account. • Photos You Upload: When you submit an antique for analysis, your photos are stored in private cloud storage. The AI analysis service receives short-lived, expiring links to your photos (typically 15 minutes). Your reports and photos are private by default. If you choose to publish a completed report to the Community Gallery, everyone can view the full report and all its photos through expiring links. • Analysis Results: The identification and value-estimate reports generated for you are saved to your account so you can revisit them. • Payment Information: We process payments through Stripe. We do not store your full payment card details on our servers. • Usage Data: We collect information about how you interact with our service, including credit balances, credit transactions, scan history, publication choices, and reports you mark as interesting. Other visitors see the number of interested collectors, without their account identities.

We use the information we collect to: • Provide and improve our service • Display reports and photos in the Community Gallery only when you choose to publish them • Process payments and manage your account, credits, and subscriptions • Send you service-related communications • Ensure the security and integrity of our service • Comply with legal obligations

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your information: • All data is transmitted using encrypted connections (HTTPS) • Payment information is processed securely through Stripe • Access to your account information is restricted to authorized personnel only • We regularly review and update our security practices

We use cookies and similar technologies to: • Maintain your login session • Remember your preferences • Analyze service usage to improve our platform (when analytics is enabled) You can control cookie settings through your browser preferences.

We use the following third-party services: • Cloudflare (including D1 and R2): For hosting, database, file storage, email delivery, and security • OpenRouter: For AI photo analysis. Your photos are shared with the analysis model only via short-lived, expiring links • Stripe: For payment processing • Google: For optional sign-in (OAuth) These services have their own privacy policies, and we encourage you to review them.

You have the right to: • Access your personal information • Make a published report private at any time from its report page. This removes it from the gallery and stops new public access to the report. Photo links already issued to visitors may remain usable for up to five minutes; copies others have saved cannot be recalled. You may also remove your interest from a public report. • Correct inaccurate information • Request deletion of your account and data (available from your profile page when signed in) • Opt out of marketing communications • Withdraw consent for data processing where applicable To exercise these rights, please contact us using the information provided below.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any significant changes by posting the new policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date.
