The App uses third-party services that may transfer data outside the European Economic Area (EEA):
Google AdMob (USA):
Google LLC complies with the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework and implements appropriate safeguards (Standard Contractual Clauses) to protect your data during international transfers.
Your photos and personal files never leave your device and are never transferred.
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the app and any data processed through third-party services. However, no system is 100% secure.
Because photos never leave your device, the risk of exposure is minimized.
In the event of a data breach affecting personal data, we will notify affected users and relevant supervisory authorities as required by GDPR (Article 33-34).
The App does not use automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal effects or similarly significantly affects you.
Photo analysis is performed locally on your device using on-device algorithms, and you maintain full control over all deletion decisions.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements.
