Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 4, 2026

Data Collection

StampCam does not require an account. Photos, project records, watermark templates, company logos, and settings are processed and stored locally on your iPhone or iPad. The app does not automatically upload your photos or project records to developer-operated servers. Apple services, sharing, and system backups are described below.

Camera Permission

Camera access is needed to take photos. Photo processing and watermark rendering take place on your device. You can use other available parts of the app without granting camera access.

Location Permission

Location access is optional and is requested while using the app to add coordinates, addresses, altitude, and direction to photos and project records. You can decline or revoke location access in system Settings and continue taking photos without current location information.

Address lookup uses Apple's network-based geocoding service (CLGeocoder), which may send location coordinates to Apple to obtain an address. Address lookup may be unavailable without a network connection. This is separate from storing and rendering watermarks on your device.

Photo Library and Company Logo

If you enable saving watermarked photos to the system photo library, the app requests permission to add photos. This optional permission does not grant access to your entire library. You can also use Apple's system photo picker to select a company logo; the selected image is stored locally for use in watermarks.

Apple and Third-Party Services

StampCam does not include third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking SDKs. Apple StoreKit handles annual subscriptions, one-time Lifetime purchases, purchase restoration, and entitlement verification. Existing monthly subscription entitlements remain supported. Apple also provides the geocoding service described above. Apple's services are subject to Apple's privacy policies.

Sharing and Exports

When you choose to share photos or export PDF reports or ZIP archives, the selected content is passed to the destination or app you choose. Watermarked photos and reports may contain project names, dates, addresses, coordinates, and your company logo. Review the content before sharing; the recipient or destination service handles any resulting copies under its own policies.

Data Storage and System Backups

StampCam stores its working data locally and does not provide its own cloud storage or project synchronization service. The app shares a summary of recent projects with its widget through an on-device App Group.

Depending on your system settings, iCloud Backup may include app data, and photos saved to the system photo library may sync through iCloud Photos. Files you export may also be stored in iCloud Drive or another destination you select. These system or user-directed transfers are separate from the app's local storage. You control them through the relevant system or service settings.

Deletion and Recovery Limits

Individual photo and project deletion removes the relevant database records after a successful save, then attempts local file cleanup. Settings > Delete all projects and linked photos is available without Pro and removes all projects and their linked photo records; it does not reset every preference, custom watermark template or the separately stored company logo. Cleanup of original, watermarked and thumbnail files is a separate best-effort operation, so failed cleanup can leave files in App storage. There is no Recently Deleted. Known file cleanup is queued before the database change and retried after a successful commit, on normal App startup, or with Retry photo cleanup. Failed or unreadable cleanup keeps files; unknown older files and detached photo records are not swept.

System Photos copies, exported PDFs/ZIP files, recipients' copies, widget summaries and earlier backups remain separate. Photos, PDFs and ZIP exports are not restorable project-database backups; there is no built-in project import or full-database restore. Device-backup recovery requires a usable completed copy and Apple's process and is not guaranteed. Restore Purchases restores eligible access, not projects or photos.

Children's Privacy

StampCam is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Checked saving and exports

The updated App reports failed default-project creation, photo saving and project editing. It keeps entered project fields for retry, applies only edited fields, and restores only the affected deletion records rather than rolling back unrelated pending edits. If the original database cannot open, its files are preserved and a recovery screen replaces record editing; no temporary replacement database is created. Known unused capture files are queued for cleanup when saving fails. If the cleanup journal cannot be written, names remain only in memory for retry while the App is open; interruption can leave untracked files.

PDF reports snapshot selected metadata before loading images and continue long text across pages. PDF and ZIP exports use unique temporary files; write failures are shown instead of presenting a missing file. ZIP export reports missing selected originals rather than silently returning a partial archive. Generated exports remain independent from later record deletion and may remain in temporary storage until the system or user removes them. Earlier versions may handle saves, cleanup and exports differently.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be reflected on this page with an updated effective date.
