Zero AI Model Training Guarantee

Legal and architectural guarantees regarding photographer copyright retention and Zero Data Retention.

Complete Creative Ownership

Working photographers build their reputations on signature styles, proprietary client relationships, and original visual artistry. Cloud platforms that ingest client photographs to train, evaluate, or fine-tune public machine learning models compromise photographer trust.

BestShots provides an irrevocable Zero AI Model Training Guarantee codified in our Terms of Service.


Enterprise Zero Data Retention (ZDR)

Our cloud evaluation architecture operates under enterprise Zero Data Retention agreements with Microsoft Azure OpenAI Foundry:

  • Ephemeral Inferences: Uploaded photo crops and evaluation prompts are processed entirely in volatile GPU/CPU memory during inference and are discarded immediately upon response delivery.
  • Zero Logging: Prompts, reasoning outputs, and image pixels are excluded from diagnostic cloud logging and model review queues.
  • 100% Copyright Retention: Photographers retain all title, copyright, and moral rights to uploaded photographs and generated metadata sidecars.

Data Encryption at Rest & In Transit

  • In Transit: All client-to-cloud communications enforce Transport Layer Security (TLS 1.3) with modern cipher suites.
  • At Rest: Original RAW files, WebP proxies, and database records are encrypted with AES-256 keys managed in Microsoft Azure Key Vault.
