Privacy Policy

Last Updated: January 1, 2026

1. Overview

GazeVault ("we", "our", or "us") is designed with a privacy-first approach. We believe your photos and biometric data belong solely to you.

2. TrueDepth API & Face Data

To function, GazeVault uses Apple's TrueDepth API (ARKit) to track the user's head position and eye gaze.

Data Usage: We use this data exclusively to determine if you are looking at the screen and to detect the presence of unauthorized users (intruders).
No Storage: Face data is processed in real-time on your device's memory (RAM) and is immediately discarded. It is never saved to persistent storage.
No Sharing: This data is processed locally. We do not share, sell, or transmit face data to any third parties or cloud servers.

3. Photo Storage

Photos imported into GazeVault are stored in your device's secure application sandbox. They are encrypted by the iOS file system. We do not have access to your photos, and they are not uploaded to any server.

4. Analytics

We do not collect personal usage data. We may collect anonymous, aggregate crash reports provided by Apple to improve app stability.
