RedactTap does not collect, store, sell, or share personal data.

TL;DR

• No accounts. No tracking. No ads.
• On-device only. Detection and blurring happen locally on your iPhone/iPad.
• Your photos stay yours. We only access images you choose for the sole purpose of redacting them.
• You control sharing. Exports are saved locally or shared only where you send them.

What data we (don’t) collect

We do not collect, store, or transmit:

• Personal identifiers (name, email, phone, etc.)
• Your images, redaction boxes, or exports
• Usage analytics or behavioral data
• Precise location data
• Advertising identifiers

We do not run any backend service for RedactTap. There is nothing to “sync” to us.

App permissions

• Photos (Add Only / Read via Picker):

  • Import: When you choose an image in Apple’s system PhotosPicker, iOS grants access only to the items you select.

  • Save: If you choose “Save to Photos,” RedactTap requests add-only permission to write the exported image back to your library.

    You can change these permissions anytime in Settings → Privacy & Security → Photos.

How your data is processed

• On device: Text detection and redaction all occur locally using Apple frameworks (e.g., Vision, Core Image).
