What do you do with the pictures? The privacy policy is a bit circular.

The uploaded photos are used for the purpose of recommending hairstyles

You also say that you're not limited to just using them for that purpose

> We use the collected information to provide and improve our Service, including but not limited to face shape analysis and hairstyle recommendations.

Something like this really needs a robust privacy policy answering questions like:

- is my photo visible to you, the developer?

- will my photo ever be shown to other users?

- will my photo be used to train your recommendation algorithm?

- how long will my photo be retained for?
