UK GDPR compliance for an AI image generator
UK General Data Protection Regulation. This page applies it to one kind of product (AI image generator), so you get the obligations that are actually yours instead of a summary of the whole statute.
Does it apply to you?
Organisations processing personal data of people in the UK.
What an AI image generator typically processes
- uploaded images and prompts sent to a model provider
- generated output stored and served publicly
- content moderation of inputs and outputs
Each of these is processing you have to disclose. Adding an SDK later adds to this list — which is why a policy written once goes stale.
Documents you need
The intersection of what UK GDPR requires and what an AI image generator actually does:
- Privacy policy
Rights you must honour
UK GDPR gives people in the United Kingdom the right to:
- Access a copy of their data
- Correct inaccurate data
- Have their data deleted
- Receive their data in a portable format
- Object to certain processing
- Restrict processing
- Withdraw consent at any time
- Ask for human review of an automated decision

Nothing non-essential may load before the visitor agrees. Analytics and marketing scripts must be blocked until then — a banner that only informs is not enough.
