EXIF Stats helps you understand the camera settings and lens information recorded in your photos. This policy explains how the app handles information and how to contact the developer of EXIF Stats (“we,” “us,” or “our”).
EXIF Stats accesses your Apple Photos library only with your permission. You can grant access to selected photos or your full library, and change or withdraw that permission in iOS Settings. Purchasing Pro does not expand your photo permissions.
The app reads permitted photos and available metadata on your device to display previews, photo details, statistics, and filters. This may include camera and lens make/model, focal length, aperture, exposure time, ISO, photo dates, image dimensions, and image format. It also uses local Photos identifiers, album information, and read status to organize your analysis and resume scans.
EXIF Stats does not upload your photos, thumbnails, or analysis library to us. It does not edit or delete photos or modify their original metadata. The app does not request your device’s location, and it does not extract GPS coordinates or camera serial numbers into its analysis index or CSV exports.
The app stores an analysis index and scan progress in its local app storage. This includes photo identifiers, selected analysis scope, recorded camera settings, and relevant app preferences. The index is excluded from device backup. Original photo files are not copied into the index.
You can use Settings → Clear local index to remove the app’s saved analysis. This does not delete your photos. You can also use Clear temporary exports to delete CSV files kept in the app’s temporary export storage. Deleting the app removes its local app data; offloading the app may retain data according to iOS behavior.
When photo access changes, the app rechecks its permitted library and removes inaccessible records from its working analysis and index. Because this happens while the app runs, use the clear-index control if you want to explicitly remove the saved analysis. Clearing local app data does not remove files you previously saved or shared elsewhere, your Apple Photos library, or Apple’s purchase records.
Requests by EXIF Stats to download photo originals through Apple Photos are disabled by default. If you enable Download iCloud originals, Apple Photos may retrieve permitted originals from iCloud for preview or analysis. These transfers are handled by Apple, not by an EXIF Stats server. Your device’s independent Photos and iCloud synchronization settings remain under Apple’s control.
In-app purchases and restoration use Apple’s App Store and StoreKit. The app uses verified transaction information, such as product identifiers, transaction identifiers, purchase status, and revocation information, to determine whether Pro features are available.
Apple processes payments. We do not receive your payment card details or Apple Account password through the app. Apple’s handling of purchase and related information is governed by its own terms and privacy policy.
If you choose to export, the app creates a CSV file on your device containing selected photo dates, camera and lens information, exposure settings, and metadata availability. CSV exports do not include photo images, filenames, Photos asset identifiers, GPS coordinates, or camera serial numbers.
Sharing is initiated by you through the system share sheet. The app or destination you select may receive and store that file under its own policies. We cannot delete copies you have saved or shared outside EXIF Stats.
EXIF Stats does not require an EXIF Stats account. The app does not include advertising, third-party analytics SDKs, or cross-app tracking. It does not send behavioral analytics or your photo analysis to us, and we do not sell your photo data.
