NewProfilePic app clarifies position on accusation of data transfer to Moscow

The management of the NewProfilePic app contacted TDPel Media to clarify position on article previously published about the app stealing and sending user’s data to Moscow.

Find their clarification below:

1. We are a BVI company with the development offices in Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus.

2. The top management of the company and the managers of the projects, including myself, are based out of these countries.

3. All user photos are hosted and processed on the Amazon AWS and Microsoft Azure servers, which are located outside the Russian Federation.

4. The address on Moscow River is the address of lawyers who registered the company. We have never had an office there.

5. It is the truth that the domain was registered to the Moscow address. It is the former Moscow address of the founder of the company. He does not live in the Russian Federation now. Currently the address was changed in order to avoid any confusion.

We understand that due to the current events in Ukraine, any connection to Russia could raise suspicions. That’s why we want to share the position on this issue on our founder’s Instagram:

6. We did not and do not plan to have any affiliation with any governmental organizations of any country.
