Privacy Policy

Summary

Sweepday does not collect any personal data. Access to your photo library, your sorting choices, Trash, the price group you are assigned to and how often the paywall is shown stay only on your iPhone. None of this is sent to Yukhoe Studio, or copied to a server of ours.

Data that stays on the device

• No account, no sign-up, and no identifier created by us.
• Photo library access (including iCloud Photos already available in the Photos app) is processed locally. Sweepday never uploads or copies a photo, video or Live Photo elsewhere.
• Sorting decisions, in-app Trash and the local cache (including place names already obtained) are stored in a database on the device.
• A/B price-test assignment (which of the two weekly prices you see) and paywall view counts are stored only on the device, so you always see the same price. They are not sent to any analytics service.
• No ads, no trackers, no audience analytics, and no crash reports sent to a third party.
• Deleting the app erases this local data. It does not delete your photos from the iOS library.

Purchases and subscriptions

Purchases and subscriptions go through Apple (StoreKit). Yukhoe Studio never sees your payment methods or card details. You manage and cancel a subscription in iOS Settings, through your Apple Account.

Technical requests that leave the device

Sweepday has no server of its own for your photos or your choices. A few Apple system features and app updates do involve a technical request:

• App updates (Expo Updates). At launch, the app contacts Expo’s update servers (u.expo.dev) to check whether a new version is available and, if so, to download it. This is a technical request used to serve the right update (the app identifier and a technical version). It does not include your photos, the contents of your library, or your sorting choices.
• Place names (Apple reverse geocoding). To group your photos by place, Sweepday may send Apple (CLGeocoder) the coordinates already stored in your photos’ metadata, in order to obtain a place name. Your current GPS location is never used. The result is cached on the device. If the service does not respond, a local fallback may still provide the country.
• Map (Apple Maps / MapKit). When you open the map, the system loads map tiles from Apple. Photos are not uploaded: pins are placed locally from the coordinates already present in your photos.
• Purchases (StoreKit). When you subscribe, restore a purchase, or when the app displays a price, the device talks to Apple’s servers. We do not receive your payment details.
• The app may also open system pages or screens (Settings, Photos, terms of use, and occasionally an App Store rating prompt controlled by iOS). Those openings do not send your data to us.

Apart from these cases, Sweepday does not send data to a third-party service and has no backend of its own that would receive your information.
