Sourati: Privacy Notice

Effective date: 2026-11-12. Sourati is operated by Xuhao Chen, an individual developer based in New York, United States, not a company. Contact: support@eternhour.com.

ID photos stay on your iPhone

To make an ID photo, Sourati reads the picture you take or choose, finds your face, removes the original background, and sizes the result to the document you selected. All of that runs on your device. The picture, the finished photo and the measurements shown on the results screen are not sent to us or to anyone else. They remain in the app's storage until you delete them. A picture is the only thing you need to provide, and it is used only to make the photo. You do not create an account.

Camera access is used only while you take a picture, and you can turn it off in iOS Settings. Existing pictures are chosen through the iOS photo picker, so Sourati sees only the ones you pick, not your library.

Nothing is shared

Sourati has no analytics, advertising or tracking tools, and it does not send your pictures to any outside service, including AI services. No personal data is shared with a third party, sold, or transferred outside your country, because none of it leaves your iPhone. Your face and the measurements taken from it are used only to make your ID photo, never for marketing, advertising or data mining.

Device identifier

Sourati also creates a random identifier and keeps it in the iOS keychain on this iPhone. It holds nothing about you or your photos, is not linked to your purchases and is never sent anywhere. iOS keeps keychain items when an app is deleted, so the identifier stays on this iPhone after you delete Sourati or erase its data; it is removed when the iPhone itself is erased.

Age and photos of children

You must be 18 or older to buy and use Sourati. A parent or legal guardian may use it to make an ID photo of their own child or of a person in their care. Those photos are handled exactly like your own: they are processed on this iPhone and are not sent to us.

Purchases

Apple takes your payment, and each purchase is confirmed between your iPhone and Apple. We do not see your card, your Apple Account details or your purchase history, and no other company receives a record of what you bought. To avoid counting a purchase twice, the app keeps a note on your iPhone of the photos you have paid for and their transaction numbers; it is erased with the rest of your data. Apple handles payments under its own privacy policy.

Your rights

You may ask us what personal data we hold about you and how we use it, obtain a copy, have it corrected or erased, restrict or stop its use, and withdraw your consent whenever you choose, in Settings, without affecting processing that took place before you withdrew it. Because ID photos stay on your device, you can erase them yourself: Settings, then Erase all photos and data. For anything else, write to support@eternhour.com. We reply within 30 days. You may also complain to the data protection authority in your country: in Saudi Arabia, the Saudi Data and Artificial Intelligence Authority; in the United Arab Emirates, the federal authority responsible for personal data.

Why we use your data

We rely on your consent to process your pictures on your device, and on the need to deliver what you bought for purchase records.

Changes

When we change this notice, we update the effective date at the top.
