8. AI Skin Analysis

U3C provides an AI-powered Skin Analysis tool to assist customers in understanding common cosmetic skin concerns and discovering suitable skincare products.

Purpose of the AI Tool

The AI Skin Analysis is designed to provide:

It is intended solely for informational and cosmetic purposes.

Not Medical Advice

The AI Skin Analysis does not:

• Replace a dermatologist.
• Replace medical treatment.
• Provide emergency medical advice.

If you have concerns about your skin health, persistent irritation, unusual lesions, infections, or other medical issues, you should consult a qualified dermatologist or healthcare professional.

AI Accuracy

Artificial intelligence is continuously evolving. While we strive to provide helpful recommendations, AI-generated results may not always be complete, accurate, or appropriate for every individual. You acknowledge that AI recommendations should not be relied upon as professional medical advice.

User Responsibility

When using the AI Skin Analysis, you agree to:

• Upload only images that you have the legal right to use.
• Upload photographs of yourself or individuals who have provided permission.
• Avoid uploading illegal, offensive, or inappropriate content.

AI Privacy

To protect your privacy:

• Images uploaded for AI Skin Analysis are processed only to generate your requested analysis.

• U3C does not use uploaded images to train artificial intelligence models.
• U3C does not sell or share uploaded images with advertisers or unrelated third parties.
• Analysis results are not retained by U3C after the analysis session unless you choose to save them yourself where such functionality is available.

Your privacy remains one of our highest priorities.

9. Skincare Information Disclaimer

The educational content available on U3C—including blog articles, ingredient guides, tutorials, FAQs, AI recommendations, and product descriptions—is provided for informational purposes only.

Nothing on this Website should be interpreted as:

• Medical advice
• Professional diagnosis
• Treatment recommendations
• Prescription guidance

Individual skin conditions can vary significantly. Before introducing new skincare products, particularly products containing active ingredients such as retinoids, exfoliating acids, or other potent ingredients, consider performing a patch test and consulting a qualified healthcare professional if you have concerns.
