OrthoCam Privacy Policy

Effective date: September 12, 2026

Last updated: September 12, 2026

Scope: OrthoCam (the "App" or "we"), an iOS architecture photography / perspective-correction camera app.

1. Information We Collect

We do not collect any personal information or usage data. The App requires no account registration, performs no background networking, and contains no analytics, advertising, or tracking SDK that would transmit user information. All content you create stays on your device. We also do not collect health or fitness data — device motion sensors are used solely for real-time orientation correction (see below).

The App has no account system, so we never obtain your name, phone number, email address, contacts, Apple ID, device identifiers (such as IDFA), or any other information that could identify you.

2. Device Permissions

The App requests system permissions only when you actively use the related feature, and you may revoke any of them at any time in iOS Settings. Each permission is used as follows (consistent with the App's Info.plist declarations):

• Camera: to capture architecture photos and video, and to auto-correct perspective based on device attitude. Used only when capturing.
• Microphone: used only when you capture Live Photos (with sound) or videos that include audio, to record accompanying ambient sound. Not used for still photos or silent captures.
• Motion & Fitness (Device Motion): reads gyroscope and accelerometer data to determine whether the device is level with the horizon and to auto-correct perspective/leveling. This sensor data is used on-device for real-time correction only; it is never uploaded or recorded.
• Photos (Read): used only when you actively browse, edit, or export photos from your library within the App.
• Photos (Add/Save): used only when you actively save a corrected result to your library.
• Location (GPS, When In Use): geotagging is enabled by default (you can turn it off in Settings). When enabled, the capture writes the device location into the photo's EXIF so you can browse by place in your library. This location is stored only in the photo file on your device; it is never uploaded to any server and we cannot access it remotely. If you disable the switch, no location is written.

All permissions follow the principle of data minimization and are used solely for the corresponding core function. Beyond the six permissions above, the App requests no access to contacts, calendars, reminders, Bluetooth, health data, or background location.

3. Data Storage, Retention and International Transfer

All your content, correction results, and sensor data remain on your device and are managed by you via the iOS Photos app, iCloud, or your computer. We have no ability to access, read, or delete any of your content remotely.

Everything the App stores on your device is as follows:

• Photos and videos: stored in your system photo library and the App's sandbox, managed by you.
• Preferences: options such as the geotagging switch, stabilization mode, and output ratio, stored in local system settings (UserDefaults).
• Membership entitlement markers: a membership ID and the trial start date are stored in the iOS Keychain solely to recognize your membership status on this device. They contain no name, phone number, email address, Apple ID, or any other identifying information.
• Local diagnostic logs: the App writes operational and error logs to Documents/OrthoCamDiagnostics for troubleshooting. The logs contain no photo content, location, or personal information, and are never uploaded automatically — you may retrieve them yourself if needed.

Retention and deletion: we keep no data on any server. All of the above resides on your device and is deleted when you uninstall the App. The membership ID and trial start date in the Keychain follow iOS platform behaviour and typically are not removed on uninstall; after reinstalling, the App reads the same ID to restore your membership status. To clear them completely, you may use "Settings → General → Transfer or Reset iPhone → Erase All Content and Settings" on your device.

International transfer: we store no data on any server and transfer no data to any server (purchases and entitlement verification are handled by Apple under its own privacy policy). Therefore no personal information is transferred or provided across borders.

4. In-App Purchases, Subscriptions and Auto-Renewal

The App offers the following in-app purchases, all handled by Apple's App Store in-app purchase mechanism: an auto-renewable yearly subscription ("OrthoCam Membership", including a 7-day free trial) and one-time purchases (Lifetime / Lifetime Upgrade). Payment is processed by Apple; we never receive or store any of your payment information (such as card numbers or billing address). Payment data is governed by Apple's Privacy Policy (https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/).

Subscription & auto-renewal: the yearly subscription renews automatically each year (including a 7-day free trial). Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase; the subscription renews automatically unless it is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can view, manage, or cancel your subscription anytime in your Apple Account settings, and you keep access until the end of the current period. One-time purchases never result in recurring charges.

Pricing: all prices are as displayed on the in-app purchase screen. Subscription prices may vary by region and with Apple's pricing adjustments; one-time purchases may be offered at a limited-time discount, and the actual discounted amount is likewise as displayed on the in-app purchase screen.

We never initiate charges ourselves and have no access to your Apple Account or payment information. Membership status is verified on-device by Apple via StoreKit; we store no purchase records identifiable to you.

5. Third-Party SDKs and Services

The App contains no third-party SDKs and uses only Apple's official frameworks (camera and image-processing frameworks, and StoreKit). It contains no advertising and performs no cross-app tracking (no IDFA or similar advertising identifiers are used). Filters, color grading, and perspective correction run entirely on-device with no outbound data. The only third-party service is Apple's in-app purchase and system-level capabilities, governed by Apple's privacy policy.

6. Children's Privacy

The App is rated 4+ and is not specifically directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children (including location or contacts). We do not intentionally collect personal information from any user. Parents or guardians with concerns may contact us.

7. Your Rights

Under the Personal Information Protection Law of China (PIPL), the GDPR, and the CCPA, you have the right to be informed, to decide, to access, to obtain a copy, to rectify, to supplement, to erase, to restrict processing, to data portability, to object to processing, and to request an explanation, and you may withdraw your consent at any time (withdrawal does not affect processing carried out before it).

Because the App collects and stores no personal data identifiable to you and has no account system, you can use it fully without providing personal information, and you may revoke all permissions at any time in iOS Settings. To exercise any right or raise a concern, contact us at the email below; we will respond within the legally required period.

8. Data Security

Because all processing happens on your device and no data leaves it, your data-security risk depends on your own device protection (we recommend a passcode, Face ID/Touch ID, and regular backups). We store no user data on any server, so there is no risk of your data being exposed through a server breach.

9. Changes to This Policy

If this policy changes, the updated version with its effective date will be posted on this page, with reasonable notice to users. If a change materially affects your rights, we will highlight it. Continued use of the App means you accept the updated policy.

10. Governing Law and Complaints

This policy is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the People's Republic of China. If you believe our processing of your personal information infringes your lawful rights, you may first contact us at the email below and we will reply within the legally required period; you may also raise the matter with the competent authorities for cyberspace administration or market regulation, or bring an action before a court of competent jurisdiction.
