Private by default.
Your uploaded photograph is stored privately rather than placed in the public area of the website.
Your photograph
A family photograph can hold years of memories in a single image. If you choose to send one to us, we want you to feel comfortable about what happens next.
Five simple promises
This is the simple version of how we look after your photograph. The fuller detail is always available in our Privacy Policy.
Your uploaded photograph is stored privately rather than placed in the public area of the website.
Sending it to us does not transfer ownership of your original photograph to Rememoir.
We do not assume permission to use your photograph or finished Rememoir in advertising, social media or public examples.
Some restoration, movement, video or sound may need carefully selected specialist services to help us create your finished Rememoir.
Working photographs are normally deleted within the retention periods explained below and in our Privacy Policy.
What actually happens?
We want the journey of your photograph to feel as clear as the rest of the Rememoir service.
The website checks the image and stores it privately outside the public area of Rememoir.
We take a look at the photograph, consider what may work well and decide what we would recommend. Sending it does not mean you have purchased anything.
We send you a private recommendation and price. You decide whether it feels right and whether you want to continue.
If you decide to go ahead, we use the photograph to provide the service you chose. Specialist services may help us with restoration, movement, video or sound where needed.
If you do not proceed, the upload is normally deleted within 30 days. After completion, working photographs and generated files are normally removed within 30 days.
Specialist services
Creating a Rememoir can involve different kinds of specialist processing — for example, restoring an older photograph or creating movement, video and sound.
Where that help is needed, your photograph may be processed by a carefully selected service for the specific work you have asked us to provide. We consider privacy and security when choosing the services we use.

A finished Rememoir may be a beautiful example of what the service can do. That still does not give us automatic permission to show it to everyone else.
If we would like to feature your original photograph or finished work publicly, we will ask separately. Saying no does not affect your service.
Not stored indefinitely
Once our work is finished, we don't want your photograph sitting in our working system indefinitely.
Your uploaded photograph and associated working request information are normally deleted.
Working photographs and generated files are normally removed after the completed job.
Once delivered, download it and keep your own backup. Rememoir is not intended as permanent storage.
Ready when you are
We'll look at your photograph first and let you know what we think may work well. There is nothing to pay and no commitment simply because you send it to us.
