Privacy Policy
Overview
Awaking is an on-device photo editing app. The app lets users import photos from their photo library, edit them locally, apply filters, masks, presets, effects, and export the result back to the photo library or share sheet.
Awaking does not upload user photos, masks, edits, ratings, or export results to our servers in the current 1.0 build.
Data We Collect
In the current 1.0 build, Awaking does not collect personal data from users.
- We do not collect photos or videos.
- We do not collect names, email addresses, phone numbers, or account identifiers.
- We do not collect location data.
- We do not collect analytics events, advertising identifiers, crash reports, or diagnostics through third-party analytics services.
- We do not track users across apps or websites.
Photo Library Access
Awaking asks for photo library access so users can choose images to edit and save edited results.
Photos selected by the user are processed on the device. Edited images are saved locally to the user's photo library when the user chooses to export or save them.
The app does not transmit selected photos, edited photos, masks, or export files to our servers.
If a selected high-quality photo is stored only in iCloud Photos, Awaking may ask the user to retrieve it through Apple's system Photos service. This retrieval is user-initiated, and image analysis and editing still occur on the device.
Camera Access
Awaking may request camera access when the user chooses to take a new photo for editing. Camera content is processed locally on the device and is not uploaded to our servers.
In-App Purchases
Awaking Pro purchases, when available, are handled by Apple through StoreKit.
Awaking does not collect or store payment card numbers, bank account numbers, or Apple ID credentials. The app only uses verified StoreKit entitlement information to determine whether Awaking Pro features should be unlocked.
The 1.0 build of Awaking does not include any in-app purchases. This section applies only if a future version introduces Awaking Pro in-app purchases.
Local Storage
Awaking may store local app preferences, editing state, cached rendering data, and verified Pro entitlement status on the user's device.
This local data is used for app functionality, such as restoring settings, maintaining editing state, and enabling purchased features. It is not uploaded to our servers in the current 1.0 build.
AI and Image Processing
Awaking's current AI and image processing features run locally on the device.
The app includes code for AI model downloading, but the current 1.0 release must not automatically upload user photos or editing data to model hosting services. If a future version enables remote model downloads or cloud AI processing, this Privacy Policy and the App Store privacy label must be updated before release.
Third-Party SDKs
Awaking uses third-party libraries for user interface, image loading, image picking, image processing, and local rendering.
The current reviewed build does not include third-party analytics, advertising, tracking, or crash reporting SDKs.
Children's Privacy
Awaking is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when the app changes. If the app starts collecting new categories of data, using analytics, enabling account features, cloud sync, remote AI processing, or other server-side services, this policy and the App Store privacy information must be updated.
