Images uploaded by users are processed for the requested AI features and are not stored or retained on lazydirector's own servers.
Images are not maintained as part of a permanent image database or server-side image library.

We do not authorize the use of content processed on our behalf for AI model training.

These providers process content to perform the requested generation tasks. Their processing, retention, and deletion practices are subject to applicable service arrangements and data protection requirements.

7. Payment and Subscription Information
lazydirector offers paid subscriptions, credit packages, and other digital purchases through its website.
We use Stripe, a third-party payment processing provider, to handle online payments and subscription billing.
