Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how PassPics ("we", "our", or "the App") collects, uses, and protects your information. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about our data practices.

Key Principle: PassPics operates on a privacy-first model. All photo processing happens locally on your device. We do not collect, store, or transmit your photos or personally identifiable information (PII) to our servers.

Information We Collect

1. Photos and Images

What Happens to Your Photos:

• ✅ All photo processing happens locally on your iPhone/iPad
• ✅ Photos are processed using on-device machine learning (Vision framework, CoreML)
• ✅ Processed photos are saved to your device's Photos library
• ✅ Purchase history photos are stored locally on your device only
• ❌ We NEVER upload your photos to any server or cloud storage
• ❌ We NEVER have access to your photos

How We Process Photos:

• Background removal and replacement (on-device using CoreML)
• Image cropping and resizing (on-device)
• High-resolution export at 600 DPI (on-device)

Your Privacy is Guaranteed:
