Effective September 24 2025
Secure Camera was built with privacy as its first‑class feature. Below is the plain‑language summary of what happens to your data when you use the app:
| What we collect | Where it goes | Why we need it |
|---|---|---|
| Nothing—no personal data, usage analytics, or diagnostics | Nowhere (the app has no network capabilities) | We don't |
Secure Camera does not collect, store, or transmit any personally identifiable information (PII), usage data, or any other kind of data whatsoever. All photos and videos remain solely on your device, unless you explicitly share them.
The app does not include any networking code or frameworks. Consequently, Secure Camera is technically incapable of connecting to the Internet, cloud services, or third‑party APIs.
Secure Camera operates entirely within its private app container for saving images you capture. It does not request access to your Photos library or other apps' data, and never reads files outside its own sandbox.
- Camera — required to capture photos and video.
- Location Services (optional) — Users can optionally grant this permission if they want location data saved with their photos. You can choose between:
- Precise location data
- Approximate location data
- No location data (default)
No other permissions are requested or required.
None. Secure Camera is 100% open source and contains no advertising, analytics, or tracking libraries.
If Secure Camera's behavior ever changes in a way that affects privacy, this document will be updated in the source repository and a new release will note those changes.
