Photo safety

A child photo should help create the book, not become the product page.

Tippytale uses a child reference to guide the personalized character and story direction. Public product pages should use approved demo assets, not private family photos or private story content.

This page explains the practical boundary: the product needs enough visual direction to create a recognizable story hero, while public pages stay general and demo-based.

Quick answer

Use demo examples publicly, not private family photos.

A photo helps Tippytale shape the child's character direction. Public examples should use approved demo assets, not private family photos, child names, prompts, or generated story images.

What the photo helps create

The reference helps the illustrated story character feel connected to the child: hair, face shape, expression, and general presence. The goal is a child-safe storybook character, not a public photo album.

What public examples should avoid

Public pages should use approved template art and demo examples. They should not expose private child names, uploaded photo URLs, generated family images, story prompts, or private story text.

  • No private uploaded photo URLs in visible content.
  • No private generated story images in public examples.
  • No raw child names, prompts, or story text in tracking events.

How private inputs should stay separate from public examples.

The product can use family inputs to make a private book feel personal without turning those inputs into public marketing material.

What parents should understand before creating

The important promise is simple: the photo helps create a better illustrated character, while public product pages and examples stay demo-based. Ready families can move into the product without pausing on a long policy page first.
