Privacy Policy

Effective Date: March 18, 2026  |  Last Updated: April 2026

Introduction

BioLens.AI ("we", "our", or "us"), operated by Atanico Digital Solutions, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India, is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and what rights you have over your data when you use our website at biolens-ai.com.

BioLens.AI is a free-to-use botanical identification and safety information platform. We collect minimal personal data and have designed our systems specifically to avoid retaining sensitive information such as uploaded images. If you have questions about this policy, contact us at contact@atanico.com.

Image Uploads for AI Identification

BioLens.AI allows users to upload photographs of plants, flowers, and foods for AI-assisted identification. The following applies to all uploaded images:

  • No permanent storage: Images you upload for identification are processed in real time by our AI inference engine and are not stored on our servers beyond the duration of your identification session. Once you receive your result, the image is discarded from our temporary processing buffer.
  • No third-party sharing: Your uploaded images are not shared with any third party, advertiser, or data broker.
  • No model retraining without consent: We do not use your personal images to retrain or improve our AI models without obtaining your explicit prior consent.
  • No account required: We do not require users to create an account or provide any personal details to use the identification tools.

Information We Collect Automatically

When you visit biolens-ai.com, we may automatically collect certain non-personally identifiable information to help us understand site usage and improve your experience:

  • Browser type and version (e.g., Chrome, Safari, Firefox)
  • Device type (desktop, mobile, tablet)
  • Operating system
  • Pages visited and time spent on each page
  • Referral source (how you arrived at our site)
  • Approximate geographic location (country/region level only — we do not collect precise GPS coordinates)

This information is collected through Google Analytics (see section below) and is aggregated — it cannot be used to identify you as an individual.

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use BioLens.AI. Google Analytics uses first-party cookies to report on visitor interactions. The data collected (page views, session duration, traffic source) is sent to Google servers and is subject to Google's Privacy Policy.

We have enabled IP anonymisation in Google Analytics, meaning your full IP address is never recorded. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Cookies and Web Beacons

BioLens.AI uses cookies — small text files stored on your device — to improve your experience. These include:

  • Session cookies: Temporary cookies that expire when you close your browser. Used to remember your preferences during a single visit.
  • Analytics cookies: Set by Google Analytics to track visitor behaviour in aggregate (see Google Analytics section above).
  • Advertising cookies: Set by Google AdSense to show relevant advertisements. These cookies may track your browsing behaviour across websites to personalise ads.

You can control cookie settings through your browser preferences. Disabling cookies may affect some functionality of the site.

Advertising — Google AdSense

BioLens.AI displays advertisements served by Google AdSense. Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies (including DART cookies) to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites on the internet.

Google's use of advertising cookies allows it to serve ads to you based on your visit to biolens-ai.com and/or other sites on the internet. You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ad Settings, or by visiting aboutads.info for industry opt-out options.

If you use the Contact Us form on biolens-ai.com, we collect your name and message content. This information is used solely to respond to your inquiry. We do not add you to any mailing list and do not share this data with third parties. Contact form submissions are transmitted via secure (HTTPS) connection.

Children's Privacy

BioLens.AI is designed for general audiences. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under the age of 13.

Your Rights (GDPR / CCPA)

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the following rights regarding your personal data:

  • Right to access: Request a copy of any personal data we hold about you.
  • Right to deletion: Request that we delete your personal data.
  • Right to object: Object to our processing of your data for advertising purposes.

Since BioLens.AI does not retain uploaded images or require user registration, the personal data we hold is limited to contact form submissions and anonymised analytics data. To exercise any of the above rights, email us at contact@atanico.com.

Data Security

BioLens.AI is served exclusively over HTTPS. All data transmitted between your browser and our servers is encrypted in transit. We do not store credit card information or financial data. Our AI inference endpoints are secured and do not retain user inputs after processing.
