Privacy Policy

Last updated: February 2026

Our Privacy Promise

Photo Monster is built with privacy as its foundation. We believe your photos are deeply personal. That's why we use Apple's official PhotoKit framework to process your photos right on your device. We never copy, upload, or store your photos on our own servers.

How Photo Monster Works With Your Photos

Photo Monster uses Apple's PhotoKit framework to access and organize your photos directly on your device. Your photos sync across your devices through iCloud, just like they normally do. Here's what that means:

  • Your photos live in your iCloud Photos library, protected by Apple's encryption. We never copy them to our servers
  • All scanning, duplicate detection, and categorization happens on your device through Apple's official frameworks
  • We do not store, cache, or retain your photos outside of Apple's ecosystem
  • When you delete photos through Photo Monster, the changes sync across your iCloud-connected devices

Information We Collect

Waitlist Email

If you sign up for our waitlist, we collect your email address to notify you when Photo Monster launches. Your email is stored securely by our email service provider, Loops.so, and is used solely for Photo Monster communications. You can unsubscribe at any time.

Analytics

Our website uses PostHog for privacy-friendly analytics. This helps us understand how visitors interact with our site (e.g., page visits, waitlist signups). PostHog may collect:

  • Pages visited and time spent on our website
  • Referring website or link

We do not sell, share, or use this data for advertising purposes.

App Usage Data (Future)

When the Photo Monster app launches, we may collect anonymized, aggregate usage statistics such as the number of photos organized or storage freed. This data will never include your actual photos or personally identifiable information.

Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal information to third parties. We may share data only with:

  • Loops.so: Email service provider for waitlist communications
  • PostHog: Analytics provider for website usage data

Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your information. Our website uses HTTPS encryption, and our email service provider maintains their own security certifications.
