The small print

Privacy notice.

MIRVA is a stylist. It helps you choose an outfit in a store, and shows you a picture of yourself wearing it. To do that it needs to see you for a moment. This notice says what MIRVA takes in, what it keeps, and what it never does.

Draft. A lawyer has not yet reviewed this text, and MIRVA is not yet open to the public. Square brackets mark details still to be confirmed.

Last updated: [date]

The short version:

  • The camera is a mirror. Nothing is recorded.
  • Your picture leaves the mirror only when you ask to wear a look.
  • At a store mirror, MIRVA does not keep your picture.
  • If you make an account, your portraits are kept only so you can have them. You can delete everything from your phone.
  • We never sell what we know about you. We never use your pictures in advertising or to train software.

Who we are

MIRVA is run by [legal name], [address], Lahore, Pakistan. You can reach us at [email] or [phone].

At a store mirror

You do not need an account to use a mirror in a store, and you do not need to give your name.

WhatWhat happens to it
The camera pictureIt is shown on the screen, like a mirror. The mirror’s own computer checks where you are standing, so it can frame you and pause when you walk away. That check happens inside the mirror. Nothing is sent anywhere for it.
A Model portraitWhen you tap a look and choose Model, one picture of you goes to the try-on engine. The engine makes a portrait of you in the outfit and sends it back to the screen. MIRVA does not keep your picture or the portrait.
A Studio live lookWhen you choose Studio, live video of you goes to the try-on engine while the look is on, and the video of you in the outfit comes back. It stops when you tap “Take it off”, when you walk away, or after [180] seconds. MIRVA does not record it.
What you ask for and look atWe note the occasion you chose, which pieces you opened, tried, kept or sent, sizes you tapped, and the time. This carries no name and no picture. The store sees these as counts.
Looks you keep on the mirrorThey stay on that mirror only while you are using it, so you can compare them. They are cleared when you finish.
Sending looks to your phoneThe mirror shows a code. When you scan it, the pieces and sizes open on your own phone. The pictures of you are not sent. We do not ask for your phone number. The link works for 14 days.

You can use a store mirror with the camera off. You will still get looks, sizes and prices.

The store’s staff can see the screen while you use it, as with any mirror. The store does not receive a copy of any picture of you.

Your pictures

  • The camera frame goes to the try-on engine only when you ask for a look.
  • Portraits made at a store mirror without an account are not stored.
  • Portraits made in your account are stored only so you can keep them. A portrait you do not keep is deleted after two days. A portrait you keep stays in your wardrobe until you remove that look or delete your account.
  • Boards. When you make a board, anyone who has the link can see the looks on it, including any portrait of you that you put there. A board closes after three days. You can close it sooner. Once it is closed, the people you sent it to can no longer see the looks or your portraits. Share the link only with people you trust.
  • People who vote on your board. We store their vote and the name they type, if they type one. A small cookie lets them change their vote.

Before any picture is sent

The first time you ask for a look, the mirror tells you in plain words that one picture will go to the try-on engine, which runs outside Pakistan, and asks you to say yes. If you say no, nothing is sent. At a store mirror every shopper is asked. A light on the mirror shows whenever its camera is on, and you can turn the camera off there.

A look is a likeness, not a fitting. The mirror says so beside it and shows the store’s own photograph next to it when you ask.

Taking a picture down

If a picture of you made with MIRVA is somewhere you did not want it to be, tell us at [email] or [phone]. We answer within 24 hours. We will delete any copy we hold, close any board it is on, and tell you in writing what we held and what we removed. We cannot remove a copy that someone else saved to their own phone, and we will say so plainly.

Your account page keeps a list of every look and portrait you have removed, with the date, so you have your own record that it is gone.

See, download or delete what we hold

Everything is on your account page.

  • See it. Your wardrobe, sizes, boards and portraits are all there.
  • Download it. Tap “Download my data”. You get a file with your account details, your wardrobe, your boards and a list of your portraits.
  • Change it. Edit your name and sizes at any time.
  • Remove one look. Removing a look from your wardrobe deletes its portrait too.
  • Delete everything. Tap “Delete my account” and type your password. Your account, wardrobe, portraits, boards and sign-ins are deleted. Records of mirror activity stay, with nothing that links them to you.

If you cannot sign in, write to [email] from the address on your account. We will answer within [7] days.

If you used a store mirror without an account, we hold no picture and no name for you, so there is nothing to delete. If you are worried about a visit, write to us with the store and the day, and we will tell you what we can see.

Children

A MIRVA account is for people aged [18] or over. At a store mirror, a person under [18] should use the camera only with a parent or guardian.

Cookies and your device

We use one cookie to keep you signed in. If you vote on a board, we use one more so you can change your vote. We use no advertising cookies and no trackers.

On your own phone or computer, the MIRVA page may remember your size and your last choices in that browser, so you do not have to repeat them. Clearing the browser’s site data removes them. A store mirror remembers nothing about you after you finish.

Changes

If we change this notice, we will put the new date at the top. If the change affects your pictures or who receives them, we will tell you on your account page and by email before it takes effect, and you can delete your account if you do not agree.

Contact

Questions, worries, or a request about your information: [email], [phone], [postal address].

These are promises we make to you. If the law gives you more than this notice does, the law applies.
