Privacy Policy

VeylCut is designed to help you permanently redact sensitive information from images by processing them locally on your device. In this version, images you choose are not uploaded to VeylCut servers.

Core image processing is designed to work locally on your device and does not require an internet connection. VeylCut 1.0 is subscription-based and does not show advertising in the app.

Your device operating system, app store, payment provider (Apple, Google, and RevenueCat), or other third-party services may process data under their own privacy policies when those services are used.

Images and supported formats

PNG, JPG, JPEG, and WebP images are processed directly on your device.

HEIC and HEIF images are converted locally on your device using iOS or Android built-in image decoding, then exported as a flattened PNG.

The exported PNG is designed to omit metadata from the original image. However, you should always review the exported file and verify that it contains only the information you intend to share.

Local image processing

Images selected in VeylCut are processed locally on the user’s device. VeylCut does not upload the user’s original images, selected image areas, masks, or exported images to our servers.

The image-removal process, pixel replacement, flattening, metadata removal, and export are performed on the device.

JPEG EXIF orientation may be read on device to display and export the image correctly; exported PNGs are designed not to carry over original file metadata.

Information VeylCut does not collect

In this version, VeylCut does not require an account, does not ask for your name or email address in the app, and does not upload your selected images to VeylCut servers.

The app only accesses an image after you explicitly select it from your device or capture it with the camera.

You can clear local temporary files, cache, and local web storage from Settings. This does not delete images you have already saved from VeylCut.

Local storage on your device

VeylCut may store preferences and session helpers on your device, such as dismissed onboarding hints, export notices, and similar UI state, using local web storage on supported platforms.

Edited images are saved to your photo library or shared only when you choose to save or share them.

Subscriptions and access

Protected image workflows require an active VeylCut Pro entitlement, including an eligible introductory free trial where offered by the Apple App Store or Google Play.

Apple, Google, and RevenueCat process purchase, subscription, restore, and entitlement information under their own policies. VeylCut does not send your selected images to those services.

Checking or restoring subscription status requires network access to Apple, Google, and/or RevenueCat.

In the current subscription-based release, access is enforced through the app stores and RevenueCat. Legacy anti-abuse code from earlier product models remains in the app for possible future use but is not used to gate access in this release.

Advertising and third-party services

VeylCut 1.0 does not display advertising and does not initialize Google Mobile Ads or the Google User Messaging Platform (UMP) in the shipping app configuration.

Advertising-related SDK code may remain installed for possible future versions; if advertising is introduced later, this Privacy Policy will be updated before ads are shown.

Open-source software used in VeylCut is listed under Settings → Licenses, available offline in the app.

Support and contact

If you email us for support, we receive the information you choose to send (such as your email address, message content, and any attachments). We use that information to respond to your request.

Your responsibility

VeylCut is designed to significantly reduce the risk of unintentionally sharing sensitive information. However, no software can guarantee that every piece of sensitive information has been removed or that every possible disclosure risk has been eliminated.

You are responsible for identifying every area that contains sensitive information and for reviewing the exported image before publishing, sending, or storing it.

Future updates

Future versions of VeylCut may introduce optional features such as cloud services, synchronization, analytics, or user accounts. If those features are added, this Privacy Policy will be updated before they become available.
