How long are they stored for?

If anyone other than me can access my photos, can they be used without my permission, and for what purpose?

Does Iris sell or market student information, images/likenesses?
The only personal information Iris collects is the image itself and the user's email address to deliver the photos to the user. Iris does not sell or market the images or user email addresses.
