Privacy Policy

Photo and Video Access

TidyMyGallery requests photo-library access only for cleaning, compression, enhancement, duplicate detection, and organisation features.

TidyMyGallery does not upload your photos or videos to TidyMyGallery-owned servers. Processing performed by TidyMyGallery occurs on your device.

If an original item is stored in iCloud Photos and is not currently available on the device, Apple Photos may download that item so TidyMyGallery can complete the requested operation. That Apple Photos retrieval is separate from TidyMyGallery uploading media, and TidyMyGallery does not control Apple’s iCloud storage or data handling.

You control which items are deleted, replaced, compressed, or retained. Deleted items may remain in Apple Photos’ Recently Deleted album according to Apple’s normal behaviour.

Information We Process

To operate its features, TidyMyGallery may store limited information locally on your device, such as:

• Photo-library asset identifiers
• Creation or modification dates, file size, media type, image dimensions, and video duration
• Duplicate-detection hashes and quality or sharpness measurements
• Scan status, reviewed-item state, and kept-item state
• App settings and preferences

This information stays on your device and is not uploaded to TidyMyGallery-owned servers. TidyMyGallery does not upload your photo library.

When you choose to send a Contact Support message, the message you review may include the selected support topic, subject, message text, app version, build number, device model, and iOS or operating-system version. The message is sent through Apple Mail or your selected email service only after you choose to send it. TidyMyGallery does not silently send these details in the background. Your email provider may process the message under its own privacy policy.

TidyMyGallery offers optional Monthly and Yearly Premium subscriptions. Purchases are made through Apple’s App Store, and Apple handles payment. TidyMyGallery does not receive your payment-card details.

TidyMyGallery uses RevenueCat to manage subscription entitlement and status. RevenueCat may process subscription and purchase information, such as subscription status and purchase or transaction identifiers, along with limited technical information needed to operate subscriptions, such as an anonymous app identifier and basic device and app information. TidyMyGallery does not use this information for advertising or tracking.

Information We Do Not Collect

TidyMyGallery does not collect advertising data, precise or approximate location, contacts, browsing history, cross-app tracking data, facial-recognition profiles, payment-card details, or cloud copies of your photo library.

TidyMyGallery has no account or login system and does not collect your name or email address as part of normal app use. If you choose to email support, we receive the address you send from so we can reply.

TidyMyGallery does not sell personal data.

How Information Is Used

Information is used only to:

• Operate app features
• Remember app settings and progress
• Respond to support requests
• Diagnose technical issues
• Meet legal obligations

Subscription and purchase information is used only to provide, verify, and restore Premium access. It is not used for advertising or tracking.

Third-Party Services

TidyMyGallery relies on a small set of system, purchase, and support services:

• Apple Photos / PhotoKit — to access and update the photo library you grant permission for
• Apple App Store / StoreKit — to handle Premium purchases, payments, and renewals
• RevenueCat — to manage subscription entitlement and status
• Apple Mail / your device’s email apps — to send Contact Support messages
• TidyMyGallery’s support email inbox — to receive and respond to support requests

These services process only the limited information required for their functions and operate under their own privacy policies. TidyMyGallery does not integrate analytics, advertising, crash-reporting, or cloud photo-storage SDKs.

Notifications

Notification permission is optional. TidyMyGallery may use notifications for processing completion, storage reminders, cleanup reminders, and library-maintenance reminders.

You can disable notifications in iOS Settings. Locally scheduled notifications do not require uploading your photo library.

Data Storage and Retention

App preferences and local TidyMyGallery data are stored on your device. You can remove this local data by deleting the app.

Support messages may be retained while resolving your request and for reasonable legal or operational purposes.

TidyMyGallery does not maintain user accounts or a cloud photo database.

User Controls

You can:

• Change or revoke photo-library access in iOS Settings
• Disable notifications in iOS Settings
• Remove local TidyMyGallery data by deleting the app
• Request deletion of support information by contacting support
• Contact TidyMyGallery with privacy questions

Children’s Privacy

TidyMyGallery is not specifically directed at children and does not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Security

TidyMyGallery uses reasonable technical safeguards to protect information. No method of electronic storage is completely secure.
