Photo safety in AI books
When a service turns your child's photo into an illustrated character, how it handles that photo matters. Reputable makers state clearly that the image is used only to generate your book, is never sold or shared for advertising, can be deleted on request, and is not used to train their models.
Before uploading, check the provider's privacy policy for: what the photo is used for, how long it is kept, whether it is used for model training, and how to request deletion. Vague or missing answers are a red flag.
Common questions
Is it safe to upload my child's photo to a personalized book maker?
With a reputable maker, yes - the photo should be used only to create your book, never sold or shared, deletable on request, and not used to train AI models. Always check the privacy policy first.
Do AI book companies train their models on my child's photo?
A trustworthy one does not. Look for an explicit statement that photos are not used for model training, and that you can delete yours at any time.
Now make it real - put your child on the cover of a personalized storybook.
