Keeuc is a free web app for making aesthetic photo edits right on your phone. Upload a photo or a 5-second video, pick a star, sparkle or polka dot motif, add your words, and share the finished story card to Instagram. It is made by Techies Lab. ## What is the star scatter photo edit? It is the viral star cutout trend: your photo shows through a scattered-star shape on textured paper, and the same stars sit in white over the photo below. Keeuc does it in one tap, so you do not need Illustrator, Canva or CapCut. ## What are polka dot photo edits? Polka dot edits use the same cutout look as the star scatter edit, with dot, moon and circle motifs instead of stars. Pick the motif you like, and Keeuc builds the card for you. ## How do I make a keeuc? Open Keeuc in your phone's browser and add a photo or a 5-second video, or take one with the camera. Choose a frame and a paper, add a place, a date or a feeling if you want, then save or share your card. ## Can I use a video instead of a photo? Yes. A 5-second clip plays through the cutout, and Keeuc exports a 12-second story video where the card floats, flips to its back and settles, with your caption typing out underneath. ## How do I share my keeuc to Instagram? Share a story card (4:5) or a 12-second story video (9:16) through your phone's share sheet, or save it to your photo library and post it from there. You can also follow @kee_uc on Instagram and Threads for new frames and papers. ## Is Keeuc free? Yes. Keeuc is free, always. Exclusive extras unlock with keeuces, the points you earn by using Keeuc, never with money. ## Do I need to install an app? No. Keeuc works in your phone's browser, and you can add it to your home screen for one-tap access. The iPhone app is coming soon to the App Store. ## What happens to my photos? In the iPhone app, photos and videos are edited on your device. On the web, the photo you pick is sent to our server to create the effect, and its processing files are deleted when processing finishes. Depending on server settings, a private, resized copy of an uploaded image with details like GPS removed may be kept. We do not sell your information or use your photos for advertising or AI model training. Read the full privacy policy for details. ## How do I contact Keeuc? Email keeuc.techieslab.app@gmail.com, use the support page, or message @kee_uc on Instagram. Please do not send passwords or private photos. # About: the team Keeuc is built by Techies Lab.

Keeuc is operated by Techies Lab. Photos and videos The iPhone app edits photos and videos on your device. Original camera and library media are not uploaded for rendering, including if rendering fails. Camera photos and videos, their previews and editing settings are automatically kept in My keeucs on your device. Your local library, videos, previews and saved cards remain on your device, including when you are signed in. A custom profile picture is uploaded only when you explicitly change it. New cloud photo saving is disabled. Existing cloud photos remain accessible to their owner. You can delete an individual keeuc or your account. The web version sends selected photos to our server to create effects. Processing files are deleted when processing finishes. On servers with upload archiving enabled, a private JPEG copy of uploaded images and explicitly uploaded video stills may be retained, resized to at most 1440 pixels on the longest side with embedded metadata such as GPS removed. Full videos are not archived. The website keeps editing drafts in the current browser on your device. When you choose to open a card from an in-app browser in Safari or Chrome, Keeuc temporarily keeps that photo or short video and its editing settings on its own server so you can continue there. These handoff drafts are not stored in Supabase, are deleted after one successful restore or after 30 minutes, and cannot be discovered without their private link. Your account and rewards When you sign in with Apple or Google, we receive your account identifier, email address, and the name or profile image you choose to share. These are used for sign-in, your profile, private saved keeucs, support and account recovery. We also keep essential records of saved cards, check-ins, invite rewards, surveys and notification subscriptions so these features work across devices. Optional analytics and photo location Usage analytics and diagnostic reports are off by default in the current app and web version. You can change your choice in Profile → Privacy. If you enable analytics, we record feature interactions, an anonymous browser identifier, account identifier when signed in, app/device information, performance timings and error diagnostics. A country code may be estimated from your network address. Captions, photo contents and precise photo coordinates are excluded from analytics. Photo location lookup is separately optional and off by default. You can turn it on in Profile → Privacy or with Use photo location in the native apps' Note section. If enabled, your photo or video's embedded coordinates are sent to Keeuc to look up a city using an offline database and are immediately discarded. If you turn on Use photo location, Keeuc can request location access while the camera is open to add the city to new photos and videos. Camera location is used only while the camera is open, and coordinates are kept with your capture on this device. Turning the setting off stops camera location access and future city lookups. The city text is retained only if you save it as part of a keeuc, and you can type a place without enabling photo location. Permissions and notifications You choose photos through the system photo picker. Camera access is used when you take a photo or silent video. Add-only Photos access saves an export to your device. Notifications are optional: when enabled, Apple receives a device push token and Keeuc stores it with your account to deliver reminders and announcements. You can turn reminders off in the app and disable notifications in iOS Settings. Feedback, service providers and security If you ask for keeuc updates (for example when you send us an idea), we keep that email address to send you news about keeuc. Every update email has a link to stop them, and you can also ask us through support. Feedback and survey responses you choose to send are stored with your account or anonymous browser identifier; an account email is used to follow up. Hosting, Supabase account and database services, Supabase or Cloudflare R2 storage, Apple sign-in and push services, and Google sign-in process information needed to provide Keeuc. These providers may process data outside your country. Keeuc does not sell personal information, use advertising trackers, or share your photos for third-party advertising or AI model training. Traffic uses HTTPS. Cloud photos are private and authenticated requests enforce ownership. First-party cookies or Keychain storage maintain your session; local settings remember privacy choices and editing preferences. Operational server logs are used to maintain security and availability and are rotated with bounded storage. Retention and deletion Account information, private saved keeucs and essential account records are retained while your account exists. Optional analytics and diagnostic records are removed after 90 days. Anonymous support messages are removed after 90 days. Legacy browser handoff drafts expire after two hours; new server photo drafts are disabled. Legacy archived photos are removed when their linked account is deleted; contact us for assistance with older anonymous uploads. In the iPhone app, open Profile → Delete account, verify the same Apple or Google account, and confirm deletion. This permanently removes your profile, private cloud photos, this account’s captures on the current iPhone, saved cards, feedback and account records and invalidates old Keeuc sessions. Apple accounts are also disconnected from Sign in with Apple. We retain only a hashed deleted-account identifier for up to 366 days to prevent old sessions from recreating data. Files already exported to your own Photos library remain under your control. If deletion cannot finish because a service is unavailable, the app reports the error and lets you retry. You can request access, correction, export or deletion of your information through Keeuc support. Include the account email or relevant draft details so we can verify ownership; never send your password or Apple key. Changes and contact We update this page when our practices change. For privacy questions, use the support form or contact our public @kee_uc Instagram account. # Terms of Service (full content) Source: https://keeuc.techieslab.app/terms Last updated: October 5, 2026 ## Who we are Keeuc is made and operated by Techies Lab ("Keeuc", "we", "us").
