# Privacy Policy — Archi.vé

_Last updated: 8 June 2026_

Archi.vé is a private photo journal for architects, created by Sami Abdulnour
("we", "the developer"). This policy explains how the app handles your
information. In short: **we don't collect it.**

## What the app stores
- **Photos and their tags** you create in the app.
- **Optional location** of a photo (if you grant location access), stored on the
  photo so it can appear on the in-app Map.
- **Your settings** (e.g. appearance, capture-flow preferences).

## Where it is stored
- All of the above is stored **locally on your device**.
- If you are signed in to iCloud, this data also syncs to **your own private
  iCloud account** (Apple CloudKit), so it is available on your other devices
  and backed up. This data lives in your personal iCloud space — **the developer
  cannot access it.**

## What we collect
- **Nothing.** Archi.vé has no developer server, no user accounts, no
  advertising, no analytics, and no third-party tracking or SDKs. We do not
  receive, see, or transmit your photos, tags, location, or any other data.

## Permissions
- **Camera** — used only to take photos within the app.
- **Location** (optional) — used only while capturing, to tag a photo with where
  it was taken. You can decline; the app works without it.
- **Photo Library** (optional) — only if you choose to import existing photos or
  capture an exhibition label.

## Your control
- You can delete any photo, or all photos, at any time in the app.
- You can export a full backup to the Files app.
- Deleting the app removes its on-device data. iCloud-synced data can be removed
  from your iCloud settings.

## Children
The app is suitable for all ages (4+) and collects no data.

## Changes
We may update this policy; the date above will change accordingly.
