GLITCH

PRIVACY POLICY

Last updated: 2 October 2026

Summary

GLITCH does not collect, store on servers, share or sell any personal data. The app has no account, no analytics, no advertising and no network features.

Images you open

Photos you choose with the system photo picker or from Files are copied into the app's private storage on your iPhone so your project can be reopened. They never leave your device unless you export or share them yourself. Deleting a project (touch and hold it in the library) or deleting the app removes them.

Photo library access

GLITCH asks for "add only" access to your photo library solely to save the images, GIFs and videos you export. It cannot read your library; picking photos uses Apple's private photo picker, which only gives the app the photos you select.

Exports and recipes

Exported images and processing recipes (JSON files describing the effect pipeline) are written only where you send them: Photos, Files or the share sheet. Recipes contain the source file name, a checksum of the image and image dimensions, the effect settings, and the app/OS version — no location or personal information.

Clipboard

The clipboard is used only when you choose Copy/Paste seed or Copy/Paste recipe.

Children

GLITCH does not knowingly collect information from anyone, including children.

Datenschutz (Deutsch)

GLITCH erhebt, speichert auf Servern, teilt oder verkauft keine personenbezogenen Daten. Es gibt kein Konto, keine Analyse, keine Werbung und keine Netzwerkfunktionen. Geöffnete Bilder werden nur im privaten App-Speicher auf deinem iPhone abgelegt und verlassen das Gerät nur, wenn du sie selbst exportierst oder teilst. Der Zugriff auf die Fotomediathek ("nur hinzufügen") dient ausschließlich dem Sichern deiner Exporte. Kontakt: über die Issues-Seite des Projekts.
