- We collect what we need to make your thing and ship it to you. Nothing else.
- We do not sell your data. Ever.
- Photos you upload are sent to AI services to turn them into a 3D model. That is how the product works, and §4 names exactly which ones.

- Email support@printmywhatever.com and we will delete your data.
1. What we collect
Account and contact. Your email address, and your name if you give it. If you sign in with Google, we receive your Google account identifier, name and email — not your password.
Orders. What you ordered, options you chose, order status and history, and the messages you send us about an order.
Shipping. The delivery address you enter, and the tracking information our shipping providers return.
Payment. Handled by our payment provider (§4). We never see or store your card number. We receive confirmation that payment succeeded, plus the order and customer identifiers needed to match a payment to an order.
Content you upload. Photos, images and any description or prompt you give us — the raw material for the thing you are ordering — and the 3D models generated from them.
Usage. Pages visited and actions taken on the site, and standard server logs (timestamp, IP address, endpoint, status) kept for security and abuse prevention.
2. Why we collect it
To make what you ordered, take payment, ship it, keep you updated, answer you when you ask for help, and keep the site from being abused. That is the whole list.
If you are in the EU or UK: our legal basis is performance of our contract with you for everything needed to fulfil an order, and legitimate interests for security, fraud prevention and basic analytics.
3. Your photos, and what happens to them
Turning a photo into something printable means processing it with AI services we do not operate. When you upload an image, it and any description you wrote are sent to one or more of the providers in §4, which return a 3D model or an image we then prepare for printing.
We do not use your uploads, or the models made from them, to train AI. The providers we use are engaged under business terms that likewise do not permit training on data sent through their APIs.
Please do not upload photos of other people without their agreement, and do not upload anything you do not have the right to use. See our Terms of Service.
If your order involves a photograph of a child, it should be uploaded by that child’s parent or guardian. See §8.
4. Who we share it with
We do not sell your data. We share it only with the providers below, and only as far as each needs to do its job.
Making your order
- Tripo3D — converts your photo into a 3D model. Receives the image and prompt.
