Five policy details worth checking

Before uploading a reference image, find the provider's statements about storage duration, deletion, model training, subcontractors and account closure. A vague promise of privacy is less useful than a specific retention period and a visible deletion control.

Check whether private mode is enabled by default or sold as an upgrade. Public galleries, community feeds and reusable prompts can expose more than a creator expects, even when the original upload is not displayed directly.

Browser preview versus provider upload

The Try interfaces on Deepfake AI Tool preview a selected file locally in the browser and do not upload it to our server. Once a visitor continues to an external provider, that provider's own privacy policy, retention rules and account settings apply.

A local preview is useful for understanding a workflow, but it does not prove that an external service offers the same privacy model. Read the current provider policy before submitting sensitive media.

Consent is the first privacy control

Technical deletion controls cannot repair a non-consensual upload. Use only fictional adults or source media supplied with explicit permission for the intended transformation. Avoid documents, private backgrounds and other identifying details that are not needed for the result.

When a policy is unclear, choose a fictional prompt-only workflow or a provider with more specific documentation. The safest unnecessary upload is the one that never happens.
