Security at StoryToon

Protecting your data and your children's information is our top priority

Our Security Commitment

At StoryToon, we understand that parents trust us with sensitive information, including photographs of their children. We take this responsibility extremely seriously and have implemented comprehensive security measures to protect your data at every level of our infrastructure.

Our security approach follows industry best practices and is regularly reviewed by independent security experts. We believe in transparency about our security practices to help you make informed decisions about using our service.

Data Protection Measures

Encryption

All data, including photos and user information, is encrypted both in transit (using TLS 1.3) and at rest (using AES-256 encryption). This ensures your information remains protected at all times.

Secure Infrastructure

Our application is hosted on secure cloud infrastructure with multiple layers of protection, including firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and regular security audits.

Limited Data Retention

We only store your photos for as long as necessary to create cartoon avatars. Original photos are automatically deleted after processing, with only the transformed cartoon versions retained.

Access Controls

We implement strict access controls and authentication mechanisms to ensure only authorized personnel can access our systems, with all access logged and monitored.

Child Data Protection

As an application designed for children, we adhere to the highest standards for protecting children's data:

  • We comply with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and similar international regulations
  • Parental consent is required before collecting any information from children under 13
  • We collect only the minimum data necessary for the app's functionality
  • Parents have complete control over their children's data, including the right to review and delete it
  • We never use children's data for advertising purposes
