Privacy Policy
Last Updated: 15/11/2024
Welcome to Sorte! We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and share your personal information when you use our app to share picture albums with others.
We collect information to provide, improve, and personalize our services. The types of information we collect include:
Account Information: When you create an account, we may collect your name, email address, and profile picture.
Photos and Albums: When you upload and share picture albums, we store and process these images to provide our service. These images may contain metadata such as location or timestamps.
Face Vectors: For photos uploaded by photographers, we extract and store face vectors (numerical representations of facial features). These face vectors are saved for a period of six months to facilitate user access to their photos.
When a user wants to retrieve their photos from an album, they may take a selfie. The app then compares the selfie to stored face vectors to identify matching photos.
Important: We do not store the face vector generated from the user’s selfie during this process.
Usage Data: We may collect information about how you interact with our app, such as your activity, preferences, and the number of albums you share or view.
Device Information: We may collect details about the device you use to access our app, including IP address, operating system, and device identifiers.
Contacts (Optional): If you choose to share albums with people in your contacts, we may collect access to your contacts with your consent.
We use the information we collect for the following purposes:
To Provide Our Services:
We process your photos, albums, and personal information to deliver the core functionality of the app.
We use face vectors to enable users to retrieve their photos by matching their facial features.
To Improve Our Services: We use usage data to analyze trends, fix bugs, and improve the app’s performance and features.
To Communicate with You: We may use your email address to send you important updates, notifications, or customer support information.
To Protect Our Users: We may monitor activities within the app to detect and prevent any fraudulent, harmful, or inappropriate activities.
We respect your privacy and do not share your personal information with third parties, except in the following cases:
With Other Users: When you share albums with other users, they will have access to the images you share and any accompanying information (e.g., album title).
With Service Providers: We may share data with trusted third-party service providers who help us operate the app (e.g., cloud storage providers). These providers are bound by confidentiality agreements.
For Legal Reasons: We may disclose information if required by law, to protect our rights, or to comply with legal processes.
We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your personal information. However, no system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your data.
Managing Your Information: You can update or delete your account information at any time within the app settings.
Deleting Shared Content: You have control over your shared albums and can delete them at any time.
Accessing and Deleting Your Data: If you wish to access, update, or delete your personal information, please contact us at [Contact Email].
We retain your personal information and photos for as long as necessary to provide our services or as required by law.
Face vectors collected from uploaded photos are retained for six months. After this period, they are permanently deleted.
When you delete an account, we will remove your personal information, but shared albums may still be accessible to other users unless they are also deleted.
Our app is not intended for use by children under the age of [13/16 – as required by your country’s law]. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from children without parental consent, we will take steps to delete such information.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will notify you by updating the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. If we make significant changes, we will notify you within the app or via email.
