Privacy Policy for CamerAI

CamerAI ("we", "the app") is built by an independent developer. This policy explains exactly what data the app collects, what we do with it, and your rights.

Short version: we collect very little, we don't sell anything, we don't run ads, and we don't have user accounts.

What the app does on your device

CamerAI captures photos with your iPhone camera, transforms them using AI (Google's Gemini model), and lets you save or share the result.

The app uses these device features:

• Camera — to capture the source photo.
• Microphone + Speech Recognition — optional, for voice-to-prompt dictation. Audio is transcribed on-device by Apple's Speech framework; raw audio never leaves your phone.
• Photo Library (Add Only) — to save generated images when you tap Save.
• Internet — to send the source photo to our AI backend and receive the result.

What we send off your device

When you tap the shutter with a prompt set, the app sends to our backend:

1. The captured photo, compressed and base64-encoded.
2. The text prompt you constructed (Outfit / Background / Accessories / Style).
3. A device identifier (Apple's identifierForVendor, a UUID unique per device per app — not linkable to you personally).
4. Your current subscription tier (free / Plus / Pro).

Our backend (running on Cloudflare Workers) forwards your photo and prompt to Google Gemini for processing, then returns the generated image to your phone.

We do not store the source photo. We do not store the generated image. The only thing we keep on our backend is a per-device usage counter so we can enforce your monthly quota.

Data we keep

• Per-device usage counter — how many generations you've used this month, stored against your identifierForVendor UUID. Used only for quota enforcement. Resets on the 1st of each month. No personally identifiable information is stored.
• Apple's in-app purchase records — handled entirely by Apple's StoreKit. We receive only your subscription status from Apple; we do not see your name, email, or payment information.

What Google sees

When the AI generates an image, your photo and prompt pass through Google's Gemini API. Google's data handling for the Gemini API is governed by Google's Generative AI terms. According to those terms, Google does not use API requests to train their models. They may temporarily log requests for abuse prevention.

Generated images from Google's Gemini carry an invisible SynthID watermark — this is built into the model and cannot be disabled.

What we don't do

• We don't have user accounts.
• We don't ask for your email, name, age, or location.
• We don't use any third-party analytics SDKs (no Firebase, no Mixpanel, etc.).
• We don't sell, rent, or share your data with anyone outside what's described above.
• We don't show ads.
• We don't track you across apps or websites.

Your rights

Because we don't have user accounts and don't store your photos, there's very little we can hand over or delete on request. If you delete the app, all local data goes with it. The only server-side data is your anonymous usage counter, which expires on the 1st of each month anyway.

If you'd like us to manually delete your counter (identified by your device's UUID), email us and we'll do it within 30 days.

Children

CamerAI is rated 12+ and is not designed for children under 13. We don't knowingly collect any data from children.

Changes to this policy

If we change anything material, we'll update the "Last updated" date at the top and note the change here.
