Privacy Policy & NDA Protection

Transparency on how Retoucher Shoaib collects minimal account details, authenticates Client Portal logins via Google Sign-In, and safeguards confidential commercial imagery.

Last updated: November 11, 2026 Studio Controller: Retoucher Shoaib Studio Contact: [email protected]
Google Sign-In Scope

Identity only. Zero file snooping.

Google Sign-In only shares your name, email address, and profile avatar to open your portal workspace. We never request access to your personal Drive, Gmail, or contacts.

Media Confidentiality

Default NDA & private delivery.

Unreleased collections, raw photography, and lookbook files stay confidential on private studio folders and are never shared or published without written approval.

Zero AI Training

100% human craft. Never scraped.

Client photography and retouched PSD/TIFF layers are strictly excluded from artificial intelligence or machine learning dataset training.

1. Overview & Scope

This Privacy Policy explains how Retoucher Shoaib (retouchershoaib.com) collects, uses, stores, and protects information when you visit our website, request a free trial or quote, or sign in to the Client Portal.

We collect only the minimal information necessary to communicate with brands, agencies, and photographers and to deliver commissioned commercial photo retouching services.

2. Google Sign-In & Google User Data Disclosure

When you click Continue with Google on our Client Portal (retouchershoaib.com/portal), authentication is handled via Google Identity Services (OAuth 2.0).

  • Data Requested: We receive only your basic Google identity profile: full name, verified email address, and profile picture URL.
  • How Google Data Is Used: Strictly to create and authenticate your Client Portal session, isolate your private order tracking and invoices, create your dedicated studio delivery folder, and send transactional order notifications when requested.
  • What We Never Access: We do not access, read, or request permission for your personal Google Drive, Gmail inbox, Google Contacts, Google Calendar, or password.
  • No Selling or Advertising: Google user data is never sold, rented, brokered, or transferred to advertisers or unrelated third parties.
Retoucher Shoaib’s use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

3. Information You Voluntarily Provide

Outside of Google Sign-In, you may voluntarily provide information when requesting a test edit, placing an order, or updating billing settings:

  • Contact & Project Inquiries: Name, email address, service discipline, project notes, and download links (Google Drive, Dropbox, or WeTransfer) shared through /contact.
  • Portal Billing Profile (Optional): Company or studio name, business address, phone number, or tax/VAT identifier supplied specifically for invoice generation inside /portal.
  • Testimonials: Name, role, brand, and quote explicitly submitted for studio review.

4. Client Image Confidentiality, NDA & Zero AI Training

Commercial pre-release imagery requires strict security. Every campaign entrusted to Retoucher Shoaib is governed by these safeguards:

  • Private by Default: Unreleased lookbooks, high-jewelry collections, packaging mockups, and automotive prototypes are accessed solely by the assigned retouching leads completing your commission.
  • Mutual NDA Execution: Formal bilateral non-disclosure agreements can be signed before file transfer upon request.
  • No Unauthorized Portfolio Display: Your images are never shown on our website, Instagram, Behance, or case studies without explicit permission.
  • Zero AI / Model Training: All work is executed non-destructively by human retouchers. Client raw files and layered masters are never fed into external generative AI training pipelines.

5. Data Storage, Cookies & Service Providers

We do not run behavioral ad trackers or third-party retargeting pixels on this website.

  • Hosting & Security: The website is served over HTTPS via Cloudflare Pages for TLS encryption and network protection.
  • Project Delivery & Notifications: Commissioned file handoffs and transactional order notifications operate through Google Workspace / Google Drive infrastructure under private studio credentials.
  • Browser Storage: The Client Portal uses standard browser localStorage and sessionStorage solely to maintain your active sign-in state and invoice preferences across browser tabs. You can clear this anytime via Sign Out or browser settings.

6. Data Retention & Your Deletion Rights

We retain portal workspace records and completed archive folders only as long as needed for active client support, revisions, and accounting records.

You may request access to, correction of, or permanent deletion of your Client Portal account details, project records, or delivered imagery at any time. Upon verified email request, we permanently remove your portal metadata and studio archive files unless retention is required by law or active billing obligations.
