Privacy Policy
Privacy-First Approach
GetPicSwipe is designed with privacy at its core. All photo processing happens locally on your device. Your photos never leave your iPhone and are never uploaded to our servers or any third party.

3. Data Sharing and Disclosure
We Do NOT Share:

We may share anonymized, aggregated usage statistics with third parties for research purposes, but this data cannot be used to identify individual users or their photos.
4. Data Security
- Local Processing: All photo analysis happens on your device using Apple's secure frameworks
- No Cloud Storage: We don't store your photos on any servers
- Encrypted Communications: Any data sent to our servers (like crash reports) is encrypted in transit

5. Your Rights and Choices
Photo Access
You can revoke photo access at any time through iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Photos → GetPicSwipe
Analytics
You can opt out of usage analytics in the app settings or through iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Analytics & Improvements
Data Deletion
Since we don't store your photos, deleting the app removes all associated data from your device
6. Third-Party Services
GetPicSwipe may use the following third-party services:
- Apple App Store: For app distribution and updates
- Apple Analytics: For crash reporting (if enabled)
- iOS Frameworks: For photo access and processing (Photos, PhotoKit)
These services have their own privacy policies. We recommend reviewing Apple's Privacy Policy for more information.
7. Children's Privacy
GetPicSwipe is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately.
8. International Users
GetPicSwipe is available worldwide. Since all processing happens on your device, your photos never cross international borders. Any optional analytics data is processed in accordance with applicable data protection laws including GDPR and CCPA.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy in the app and updating the "Last Updated" date. Continued use of the app after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
