Privacy Policy

What data Ozil AI collects when you create a goal video, how we use it, and the choices you have

Last updated: October 16, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Ozil AI ("we", "us") collects and uses personal data when you use our website to create AI-generated goal videos, and what controls you have over that data. Ozil AI is an independent fan project and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Mesut Özil, any club, league, or broadcaster.

Information We Collect

  • Account information. You can sign in with Google or with an email address. We store your email address, your name, and — if you sign in with Google — the profile picture your Google account provides.
  • Photos you upload. The photo you choose as the subject of a video.
  • Video and render records. The videos generated for you, plus the status and outcome of each render request.
  • Order information. Payments are handled by our payment provider (such as Stripe). We only receive order-level details like the plan, amount, and status. Your card number is never visible to us.
  • Technical and usage data. IP address and browser details recorded for security, and basic analytics such as which pages are visited and on what kind of device.
  • Messages you send us through the contact form or by email.

How Your Photo Is Processed

  • When you start a render, your photo is sent to a third-party AI video service solely to generate your video. We do not keep a separate copy of it in our own storage.
  • The finished video is saved to cloud storage (Cloudflare R2) so you can download it again later.
  • We never use your photos or videos to train AI models.
  • You can ask us to delete your videos or your entire account at any time via our contact page.

How We Use Information

We use the data above to operate and improve Ozil AI: to sign you in, render and deliver your videos, process payments and refunds, keep the service secure and prevent abuse, understand how the site is used through basic analytics, and answer your questions.

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use it for targeted advertising.

Who We Share Data With

We only share data with service providers that help us run Ozil AI, and only for that purpose:

  • the AI video service that renders your video (it receives your photo and the render request);
  • Cloudflare, which hosts the site and stores generated videos;
  • our payment provider, which handles checkout and refunds;
  • Google, if you choose to sign in with Google;
  • our email delivery and analytics providers.

We may also disclose information when required by law, or to protect our users, the public, or the service itself.

Cookies

We use cookies that are strictly necessary to keep you signed in. Our analytics tools may set additional cookies or similar technologies to measure usage.

Data Retention

  • Account information is kept while your account is open.
  • Generated videos are kept so you can re-download them, until you ask us to delete them or you close your account.
  • Order records are kept for as long as tax and accounting rules require, even after account closure.

Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, export, or delete your personal data, and to object to or restrict certain processing. To exercise any of these rights, reach us through our contact page. You may also lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

Children

Ozil AI is intended for users aged 18 and over. Do not upload photos of anyone under 18. If we learn that we hold data from a minor, we will delete it.

Security

We apply reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your data. However, no transmission or storage method is completely secure, and we cannot promise absolute security.

International Transfers

Our service providers may process data in countries other than your own. When that happens, we rely on the safeguards those providers have in place.

Changes to This Policy

We may revise this Privacy Policy from time to time. The current version is always available on this page, and the "Last updated" date above shows when it changed.
