Privacy Policy
Last updated: November 8, 2026
🔒 100% On-Device Guarantee
PhotoCull is designed from the ground up with absolute privacy in mind. Multi-dimensional clustering (64-bit dHash), timestamp / GPS proximity evaluation, and composite scoring (Laplacian sharpness, portrait eye/expression contrast, and exposure analysis) run 100% locally on your phone. Your photos, thumbnails, metadata, and scores never leave your device.
1. Information Processed
PhotoCull requires photo library access strictly to cluster bursts/similar shots, crown the 👑 Best Pick, and allow you to move unwanted duplicates into your operating system's native trash bin. All processing occurs in local device memory and parallel Isolates. No analytical data is ever transmitted to Urban Generation or third-party cloud servers.
2. In-App Purchases (Pro Tier)
When upgrading to PhotoCull Pro (one-time purchase), transactions are handled securely by Apple App Store or Google Play. No photo or personal media data is ever associated with or transmitted during this purchase.
3. No Tracking or Ad Networks
PhotoCull contains zero third-party advertising SDKs (e.g. Google AdMob) and zero tracking frameworks.
4. Non-Destructive Deletions
PhotoCull never permanently erases files directly. Selected photos are moved to iOS "Recently Deleted" or Android system trash, where you can restore them for up to 30 days.
5. Business Transfers & Mergers
In the event of an acquisition, merger, reorganization, or asset sale, the operating assets and standards of this Privacy Policy will transfer to the successor. Because PhotoCull does not collect or store photos or metadata on cloud servers, no personal media assets are exposed or migrated during an acquisition.
