3. Voice Data and Biometric Information — Special Notice
This section requires your explicit, separate consent during onboarding.
Voice recordings submitted to create a Mini Me voice clone are considered biometric data under applicable laws including the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act (BIPA), Texas CUBI, and Washington My Health MY Data Act.
We handle voice data as follows:
- Used solely to generate your personal Mini Me voice profile
- Stored with AES-256 encryption at rest and TLS 1.3 in transit
- Never shared with other users, third parties, or used to train any shared AI model
- Not used to circumvent biometric authentication on any system
- Permanently deleted within 30 days of account deletion, or immediately upon your request in Settings → Mini Me → Delete Voice
You must provide a separate, affirmative consent before submitting any voice recordings. The in-app consent prompt will clearly state that your voice will be processed by ElevenLabs (ElevenLabs Inc.) for voice cloning purposes. You may withdraw this consent at any time by deleting your voice data; withdrawal does not affect prior lawful processing.
Retention by state:
- Illinois users: voice data is retained only for the duration stated at time of consent, and deleted within 3 years or when the purpose is fulfilled, whichever is earlier (BIPA § 15(a))
- Texas users: retained no longer than 1 year from collection or 3 years from last interaction, whichever is earlier
3a. Face and Avatar Data — Special Notice
Separate consent is requested before you upload a photo for avatar creation.
When you choose to create a Mini Me avatar, you may upload a photo of your face. This photo is:
- Processed by Google Gemini (Google LLC) to generate your avatar image
- Used solely to generate your personal Mini Me avatar
- Not shared with other users or third parties beyond the processing service
- Not used to train any shared AI model
- Permanently deleted from our servers within 30 days of account deletion, or immediately upon your request in Settings → Mini Me → Delete Avatar
Your photo is transmitted to Google's servers for processing under Google's Privacy Policy. We have a Data Processing Agreement with Google governing this use.
You must provide separate, affirmative consent before uploading any photo. You may delete your avatar and associated photo data at any time.

Your Mini Me is trained on data you voluntarily provide. This data:
- Powers only your personal Mini Me — not shared with other users
- Is not used to train any general or shared AI model

This processing is done to protect your safety and the safety of others, and constitutes a legitimate interest under applicable privacy law.
