1.Introduction
Dola AI (“the App”) is an AI-powered creativity application developed and operated by Appnovastudio (“we,” “us,” or “our”). The App lets you chat with specialized AI assistants, generate images with AI, and transform your photos into AI-generated videos.
Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, where it is stored, and the choices you have. By using Dola AI, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
2.Information We Collect & How We Use It
- Prompts and chat messages. The text you type when chatting with AI assistants or describing an image/video you want to create is processed to generate a response. Your chat history is stored locally on your device so your conversations can be restored.
- Photos you upload. When you use the AI Image Generator or AI Video Generator, the photo you select is processed to create your requested content. We only access photos you explicitly choose — we never scan your photo library.
- Generated content. Images and videos you create are saved to your in-app history. Generated videos are also stored temporarily on our video provider's servers so you can download them (see Section 6).
- Technical data. We may collect basic device information (such as device model, OS version, and crash data) to keep the App stable and fix problems.
- Location. We do not request or access your location.

5.AI Processing & Third-Party Services
Dola AI's generative features are powered by trusted third-party AI service providers. Before your photo or prompt is ever sent to one of these providers, the App shows you an in-app notice naming that specific provider and asks for your permission first. Depending on the feature you use, your data is sent to one of the following providers:
- Google Gemini (Google LLC) — Powers the AI Chat Assistant, AI Photo Editing, and AI Image Generation from templates. Your typed messages, any images you attach in a conversation, and the photos and prompts you use for image editing and image generation are sent to Gemini to generate your result.
- PixVerse AI (PixVerse) — Powers AI Video Generation. The photo you upload and your selected template or prompt are sent to PixVerse to generate your video. See Section 6 for how generated videos are stored.
The specific providers we work with may change from time to time as we improve the App; if that happens, this policy and the in-app notice will be updated to name the new provider before it is used. In all cases, these third-party processors handle your data via API agreements under strict privacy standards, your data is encrypted in transit, and your text prompts and uploaded photos are not used to train public AI models. We strongly recommend you do not include sensitive personal information in your prompts.
Advertising: Dola AI does not currently display third-party advertisements or share data with any advertising network. If this changes in the future, we will update this section to name the advertising provider(s) used, describe what data they collect, and obtain your permission as required.
6.Generated Videos & Temporary Server Storage
Please note: generated videos are stored only temporarily on the servers of our video generation provider, PixVerse AI (see Section 5). When you request a video, you receive a unique video ID, and the finished video is kept for a limited number of days so you can download it. After that period, the video is automatically deleted from PixVerse's servers.
- How it works. Video generation takes several minutes to complete. When you request a video, our provider PixVerse AI assigns a unique, randomly generated video ID. Once your video is ready, the App uses this ID to retrieve it from PixVerse's servers and deliver it to you for download.
- Temporary storage. After generation, your video remains on PixVerse's servers for a short retention period so you can access and re-download it using its video ID. When this period ends, the video is automatically and permanently deleted. We do not keep your videos permanently.
- What is stored. Only the generated video file and its video ID, stored on PixVerse's servers. Videos are not linked to your name, email, or other personal identity information.
- Who can see it. Your videos are not published, listed publicly, or shared with other users. They are accessible only through their unique video ID.
- How it is used. Stored videos are used solely to deliver your video and provide the download feature. We do not use your videos for advertising or sell them to third parties.
- Early deletion. You may request deletion of your videos before the retention period ends by contacting us at the email address in Section 14.
- Tip: please save your generated video to your device — once it is deleted from PixVerse's servers, it cannot be recovered.
7.Credits & In-App Purchases
- All payments (subscriptions and credit purchases) are processed securely by Apple's In-App Purchase system. We never see or store your credit card or banking details.
- Your credit balance is stored locally on your device. Purchase records are managed through your Apple ID and can be restored using the “Restore Purchases” option.
8.Security Measures
- All data transmitted between the App, our servers, and our AI partners is encrypted in transit using industry-standard protocols (HTTPS/TLS).
- Videos stored on our servers are kept in secure cloud storage with access controls.
- We follow a data-minimization principle: we only collect and store what is necessary to operate the App's features.
9.Data Retention
- On your device: chat history, generated images, and your media history are stored locally. Deleting the App removes this local data.
- On our servers: generated videos are stored only temporarily, as described in Section 6, and are automatically deleted from our servers after the retention period ends.
- We retain data only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy or as required by applicable law.
10.Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you;
