Effective Date: August 12, 2026
Declutter: Smart Photo Cleaner (hereinafter referred to as "the App", "we", "us", or "Declutter") takes your privacy very seriously. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle your information when you use our App.
Core Commitment: This App is a fully offline photo cleanup tool. Your photos and videos never leave your device. We do not collect, upload, or store any of your photo or video content.
Declutter is designed with a "privacy-first" philosophy. All analysis is performed locally on your device. We do not collect any of the following:
Your photos, videos, or any media file content
Your personally identifiable information (name, email address, phone number, postal address, etc.)
Your location information or GPS coordinates
Your contacts or social relationships
Your device's unique identifiers (for tracking purposes)
Any information that could identify you as an individual
All photo analysis and duplicate detection are performed locally on your device using Apple’s PhotoKit framework, and no data is transmitted to any external server.
To improve the product experience, the App may record anonymous, aggregated usage events (e.g., feature click counts, page view frequencies). This information:
Does not contain any personal identification
Does not include any photo or video content
Cannot be traced back to you or your device
Is not used for personalized advertising or tracking purposes
In the App Store privacy labels, we may need to declare the following data types (as applicable):
Purchase History: Used to process in‑app purchases and subscriptions. All transactions are handled by Apple, and we do not have access to your specific payment information.
Usage Data: Used to improve App functionality and user experience. This data is collected in an anonymous, aggregated manner and does not contain any personally identifiable information.
Diagnostics Data: Used for crash fixes and performance optimization. This data is collected only if you actively choose to share it with Apple.
This App requires access to your photo library to scan and identify duplicate photos, similar photos, screenshots, and large videos. When requesting access:
We will ask for your explicit authorization through the system permission popup
The permission description will clearly state the purpose, e.g.: "Access to your photo library is needed to scan for duplicate and similar photos to help you free up storage. All analysis is performed locally on your device; photos are not uploaded"
You can revoke this permission at any time in your system settings
All photo analysis, duplicate detection, similarity comparison, and related operations are performed locally on your device. No images, videos, or analysis results are sent to any external server.
Photos you confirm for deletion are moved to the system "Recently Deleted" album, where they can be restored within 30 days. Deletion is performed through Apple's Photos framework and follows the standard behavior of the iOS system.
The App stores your review decisions, recent scan results, and cleanup history locally on your device. This data will be removed when you uninstall the App.
Because we do not collect your photos, videos, or personal identification information, there is no situation in which we share such data with any third party.
We may only disclose relevant information if required by law or by a lawful request from a government authority.
This App uses the following Apple services:
App Store: for App distribution and in‑app purchase/subscription processing
PhotoKit / Photos Framework: for accessing and managing photos in the system album
Apple’s StoreKit: for handling subscription payments and renewal management
Use of these services is governed by Apple’s Privacy Policy and Terms of Service. We do not collect any of your personal data through these services.
This App does not use any third‑party analytics tools, ad networks, or tracking SDKs. We do not serve any advertisements.
This App may contain links to external websites (e.g., a Terms of Use page). We have no control over the content or privacy practices of external sites and assume no responsibility for them.
Subscriptions and one‑time purchases in this App are processed through Apple’s App Store. The transaction is handled entirely by Apple:
We do not obtain or store your payment information (credit card numbers, billing addresses, etc.)
Subscription renewals, cancellations, and refunds are managed through your Apple ID in your system settings
Subscription prices and periods are clearly displayed before you make a purchase
If you choose a subscription service:
Your subscription will automatically renew through your App Store account
You may cancel your subscription at any time in your App Store settings
Payment will be charged within 24 hours before the end of the current period
After cancellation, your subscription will not renew once the current period ends
Because all data is stored locally on your device, data security is safeguarded by the iOS system. This App:
Does not operate any backend servers, so there is no risk of remote data breaches
Does not transmit data over the internet
Utilises Apple’s data protection mechanisms (complete protection level)
You are responsible for the security of your own device (e.g., lock screen passcode, device loss, etc.). We recommend that you regularly back up important photos.
Since all data resides locally on your device, you have full control over your data:
Right of Access: You can access your photos at any time through the system photo library or this App
Right of Deletion: You may delete photos or uninstall this App at any time
Permission Management: You may revoke photo library access at any time in system settings
Withdrawal of Consent: You may withdraw your consent to this Privacy Policy at any time (simply by uninstalling the App)
This App is not intended for children under the age of 13. Because we do not collect any personal information, there is no collection of children’s data.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. For material changes, we will:
Notify you via an in‑app notice
Indicate the changes in the update notes when we release a new App version
Update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page
Your continued use of the App after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy.
