Privacy by design

Privacy Policy

FrameTrace keeps your photography records on your device. The only network feature is the feedback form you choose to submit.

Private offline film log

The short version

Rolls, frames, gear, development records, and insights stay on your device.
Optional feedback sends only the message and supporting details you choose.
There is no account, advertising, tracking, subscription, or automatic cloud sync.

Photography Data FrameTrace Handles

FrameTrace stores the roll, frame, camera, lens, film stock, exposure, cost, scene, development, rating, keeper, and note details you enter. It uses those records only to provide the logbook, lifecycle, search, and fact-based insight features.

Local Storage

Your photography library is stored locally in the FrameTrace app container on your iPhone or iPad. FrameTrace does not require an account and does not upload or synchronize this library to ApplyAI servers.

Exports and Imports

Text, CSV, and JSON files are created only when you request an export. You choose where to share or save them. JSON backups are read only after you select an import file, and FrameTrace validates them before changing local records.

Optional Feedback

If you submit in-app feedback, FrameTrace sends your message, optional email address, selected screenshots, app version, operating-system version, device model, locale, and App Attest security proof to the ApplyAI support service. We use this information only to answer support requests, investigate defects, prevent abuse, and improve the app. We do not sell it or use it for advertising.

Selected Screenshots

FrameTrace can access only the images you explicitly select with the system photo picker for a feedback report. Removing or cancelling a draft asks the support service to delete its uploaded screenshots, and unattached draft uploads are automatically removed after 24 hours.

Diagnostics and Security

FrameTrace does not run third-party analytics or advertising SDKs. App Attest provides device and app integrity evidence for optional feedback submissions; it is used for abuse prevention, not cross-app tracking.

Retention and Deletion

On-device records remain until you edit them, delete them, clear the library, or remove the app. Submitted feedback is retained only as long as needed for support, reliability, and security purposes. You may request deletion by emailing support@applyai.tech.

System Permissions

The core app works without camera, microphone, location, contacts, notifications, tracking, local-network, or full photo-library access. The system photo picker grants access only to images you deliberately select for optional feedback.

Children's Privacy

FrameTrace is a general-audience photography utility and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy when FrameTrace or its data practices change. The current version will remain available on this page with a revised update date.
