Private by design
Your original photo is used only to create the colorized result. The service does not intentionally retain uploaded images after processing, and temporary processing files are removed when the job finishes.
Preserving the original image
Unlike generative image tools that may redraw faces, clothing, buildings, or other parts of a photograph, this colorizer works from the original uploaded image. It adds estimated color while preserving the existing scene and photographic structure.
