Privacy Policy

slay is built to be a private, local-first camera. It does not require an account, and the photos you capture on your device are yours. We collect only a minimal amount of information to operate the Service.

Your photos & camera

• Photos you capture with slay are stored in your own photo library on your device. We do not upload them to our servers.
• The app does not collect, transmit, or share your photos.

Usage & diagnostics

• App analytics events, device and operating-system information, performance metrics, and crash logs.

Website cookies

• Basic analytics cookies on slaycamera.camera.

App Store privacy summary

• Data linked to you: usage data and diagnostics.
• Tracking: none.
• Third-party advertising: none.

We use the data we collect to:

• Operate the Service — providing the camera, composition guides, and camera controls.
• Process your one-time purchase on the App Store.
• Improve reliability and performance.
• Comply with the law and enforce our terms.

If you are in the EEA or UK, we rely on these legal bases: performance of a contract, our legitimate interests, your consent, and compliance with legal obligations.

Third-party service providers (data processors)

We rely on a small set of trusted providers who process data on our behalf, solely to deliver the Service and under appropriate protections:

• Apple App Store — purchase validation and entitlements.
• Vercel — website and API hosting.

We do not sell your personal data, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising.

• Photos: captured photos remain in your device's photo library and are never stored by us.
• Purchase records: retained for up to 7 years to meet tax and legal requirements.
• Analytics: aggregated or anonymized data may be retained for longer.

• Data is encrypted in transit using HTTPS/TLS.
• Data is encrypted at rest through our host's protections.
• Because slay is local-first, your photos never leave your device.
• We notify affected users of breaches as required by law.

No security method is perfect, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

In-app controls

• You can grant or deny camera permission at any time from your device settings.
• Your photos are managed through your device's photo library, where you can edit or delete them freely.

Data requests

To access, correct, export, or delete your personal data, contact us at @yaps.gg. We may retain limited information where necessary for legal compliance and abuse prevention.

Region-specific rights

• California (CCPA/CPRA): the right to know, delete, and correct your data, and to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information (which we do not do). We will not discriminate against you for exercising these rights.
• EEA/UK (GDPR): the rights of access, rectification, erasure, portability, objection, and restriction. You may also lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority.

The Service is not intended for users under 13, and we do not knowingly collect data from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, contact us at @yaps.gg and we will delete it.

We operate primarily in the United States. Your data may be processed in the U.S. and other countries, with appropriate safeguards in place where required.

We post updates to this policy on this page. For material changes, we will let you know in-app or by email. Continuing to use the Service after changes take effect means you accept the updated policy.

• Response target: 48 hours.
• Urgent requests: include “URGENT – Privacy Request” in the subject line.
