PhotoDay may request access to your location to provide location-based features such as reminders or context. Location data is only collected when you grant permission and is used solely to enhance app functionality.

You can disable location access at any time through your device's Settings > Privacy & Security > Location Services > PhotoDay.

Photo Library Access

PhotoDay requests access to your photo library to provide photo-related features. Photos are processed locally on your device and are not uploaded to external servers unless you explicitly choose to share them.

How We Use Your Information

  • To provide and maintain the app's core functionality
  • To send you notifications and reminders (when enabled)
  • To provide location-based features (when location permission is granted)

Data Storage and Security

Your data is stored:

  • Locally: On your device using encrypted storage

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

Third-Party Services

The app may integrate with:

  • Apple Photos: Read and write access to your photo library
  • Apple Vision Framework: On-device face detection (no data leaves your device)

These services have their own privacy policies, and we encourage you to review them.
