Privacy Policy

Last updated May 6, 2026

Overview

This Privacy Policy explains how Afterimage collects, uses, and protects information when you use the service.

Information We Collect

We collect information you provide, including username, display name, email address, password hash, profile settings, posts, tags, reports, moderation notes, and uploaded files. We may also collect technical information such as IP address, browser details, device information, cookie/session identifiers, log events, and security signals.

How We Use Information

We use information to operate accounts, publish posts, provide feeds and profiles, process uploads, enforce content rules, moderate reports, prevent abuse, secure the service, communicate with users, and comply with legal obligations.

Cookies and Sessions

We use cookies or similar session technology to keep users logged in, protect forms from CSRF attacks, remember settings, and support basic site functionality.

Adult Content Settings

Adult-content preferences and NSFW profile settings are used to filter feeds, label posts, and enforce the site’s adult-content controls.

Sharing

Public posts, tags, profiles, display names, and usernames are visible to others according to your chosen visibility and account status. We may share information with service providers, moderators, legal advisors, or authorities where required or appropriate for safety, security, or legal compliance.

Retention

We keep information as long as needed to operate the service, preserve moderation and audit records, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and prevent abuse. Deleted posts may be retained as soft-deleted records for moderation integrity.

Security

We use reasonable safeguards, but no online service can guarantee perfect security. Use a strong password and protect your account credentials.

Your Choices

You can update account settings, adult-content preferences, and profile information from settings. Requests about account data or removal can be sent to the contact address below.
