Privacy Policy
Effective date: October 21, 2026 · Applies to SafeShare 1.1 and later
SafeShare respects your privacy. The app is designed to help you redact sensitive information in photos while keeping processing on your device.
1. Data We Collect
SafeShare does not collect, upload, sell, or share your personal data.
- No account required
- No self-hosted server
- No third-party analytics SDK
- No advertising SDK
- No photo upload
- No cloud storage for original photos
2. Photo Processing
Photos you select are processed only on your device. The app uses iOS system capabilities for face detection, text detection, license plate detection, manual region selection, pixelate, blur, and blackout redaction.
The app can remove EXIF/GPS metadata from exported images. Processed images are shared or saved only when you choose to do so.
3. Face Data
SafeShare uses Apple's Vision framework (VNDetectFaceRectanglesRequest) to detect face regions entirely on-device. Face detection runs exclusively on your device with no network connection required.
- No collection: Face data is never collected, stored, or transmitted off your device.
- Temporary detection: Face detection results (bounding box coordinates) are temporary and discarded as soon as you close the photo or exit the editor.
- No sharing: No face data is shared with any third party.
- Detection only: The app only detects bounding box locations of face regions for redaction purposes. It does not perform face recognition, face identification, or facial landmark analysis beyond what is necessary to draw a redaction box.
4. Photos Permission
The app may request add-only Photos permission only when you choose to save a processed image to your photo library. It does not use this permission to read or upload your photos.
5. In-App Purchases
SafeShare Pro is a one-time non-consumable in-app purchase. Purchases and restore purchases are processed by Apple App Store through StoreKit. We do not receive your bank card, payment account, billing address, or other payment credentials.
6. Third-Party Services
SafeShare does not integrate or use any third-party AI services, APIs, analytics, or advertising SDKs. All photo processing — including face detection, text detection, and license plate detection — runs locally on your device using Apple's built-in system frameworks (Vision, Core Graphics). No personal data is sent to any external server or service.
7. App Store Ratings and Reviews
SafeShare may occasionally invite you to rate the app using Apple's built-in review prompt — for example after you export a redacted photo. That prompt is displayed and handled entirely by Apple: we never learn whether you chose to rate the app, and we never receive your rating or the text of any review you write. Apple limits how often such prompts may appear, and we additionally limit them to at most once per app version.
The Settings screen also contains a link that opens the App Store page where you can write a review. That page belongs to and is operated by Apple; anything you submit there is governed by Apple's Privacy Policy, not this one.
If you contact us by email (for feedback or support), we receive only what you choose to write.
8. Children's Privacy
The app is not designed to collect personal information from children and does not knowingly collect children's data.
9. Changes to This Policy
If future versions add new features that change data handling, this Privacy Policy will be updated accordingly.
