Content & Data Use - AcademicAR

1. Your models stay yours

You keep the copyright and all other rights in the models, images and documents you upload. By uploading, you only allow AcademicAR to store, convert and display them so that the viewer, AR, QR and sharing features you choose can work.

2. We store your content, we do not use it

We keep your uploaded files and the 3D files made from them only to run the service: viewing, AR, QR links, re-processing on request and backups.
We do not sell, license or share your content, do not use it in our own marketing without your permission, and do not use it to train AI models.
Authorised AcademicAR staff open or download a model only when needed for support, moderation, security or a legal obligation, and such access is logged.
When you delete a model, its files are removed from our storage; copies in rolling backups expire with those backups.

3. Medical scans are reduced to anonymous geometry

From a CT/MR scan (DICOM) or a segmentation we keep only the 3D surface geometry. Patient data in the scan headers is not copied into the 3D model.
The raw scan is deleted right after processing, whether it succeeds or fails. It is never archived or backed up.
You remain responsible for removing identifying information before upload, including from file names, and for having the required ethical approval and consent.

4. Questions and removal requests

If you believe content on AcademicAR infringes your rights or identifies a person, please contact us and we will review it promptly. See also our Terms and Privacy Policy.
