Privacy Policy

Vouve · Effective date: 13 May 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how Vouve (the "App") handles information when you use it on iOS. We designed Vouve to work with as little data collection as possible. The most sensitive operation in the App — pose detection on your camera feed — happens entirely on your device and is never transmitted anywhere.

1. What We Do Not Collect

Vouve does not collect, store on a server, or share any of the following:

• Personal information (name, email, phone, address)
• Account credentials
• Location data
• Photos, video, or audio from your device
• Camera frames or pose data from your camera feed
• Advertising identifiers (IDFA)
• Behavioral analytics or feature-level usage tracking

The App contains no third-party advertising SDKs and no analytics SDKs.

2. Camera Use

Vouve requests access to your iPhone camera so that it can:

• Show you the live camera preview to compose a shot
• Detect a human body pose in the live preview using Apple's on-device Vision framework
• Capture a still photo when you tap the shutter or when the auto-shutter pose-match threshold is reached

The live camera feed is never uploaded, transmitted, or stored beyond the duration needed to render the next preview frame. Pose detection happens locally on your device using Apple's bundled machine-learning models. No frames are sent to any external server.

3. Photos You Choose to Save

When you take a picture in Vouve, you can save it to your iOS Photos library. To do so the App requests "Add Photos Only" permission. Photos saved to your library are stored under your control by iOS — Vouve does not retain a copy and does not have access to read your existing Photos library.

4. Motion Sensor

The App reads your phone's pitch and orientation from the on-device motion sensor to coach you on holding the phone level. This data stays on the device and is not stored.

5. Subscriptions and In-App Purchases

Vouve offers Pro features through Apple's StoreKit. When you purchase or restore a subscription:

• Apple processes the transaction. We never see your payment details.
• Apple StoreKit provides Vouve with verified transaction and entitlement status, including product identifier, subscription status, and renewal/expiration or revocation information when applicable. We use this only to unlock Pro features and do not send it to our own server.
• Vouve does not upload entitlement data, transaction identifiers, or purchase history to any server we operate.

You can manage or cancel your subscription at any time in Settings → [your Apple ID] → Subscriptions.

6. Data Stored Locally on Your Device

The following items are stored only on your device using the operating system's standard preferences storage. They never leave your device:

• Whether you've completed onboarding
• Whether you've completed your first capture
• Whether the first paywall has been shown
• Whether you've completed the first-shoot tutorial

Your selected pose category and Pro entitlement state are kept only in memory while the App is running, and Pro status is read directly from Apple StoreKit each launch.

7. Children's Privacy

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

8. Third-Party Services

Vouve integrates only with first-party Apple services:

• Apple Vision (on-device pose detection)
• Apple StoreKit 2 (subscriptions and in-app purchases)
• Apple Photos library (save-to-library permission only)

No third-party SDKs, analytics tools, or advertising networks are integrated into Vouve.

9. Your Rights

Because Vouve does not collect or store personal data on a server, there is no remote profile to export, correct, or delete. To remove all data, simply delete the App from your device. iOS will remove all local data automatically.

10. Changes to this Policy

If this policy materially changes we will update the effective date above and post the new version at this URL. Continued use of the App after a change indicates acceptance.
