Privacy Policy

Effective Date: November 14, 2026

DiskCraft Studio (iOS & iPadOS) and DiskCraft (macOS) are engineered with a strict 100% On-Device Privacy Architecture. Your photos, videos, documents, and local directory structures never leave your Apple device.

1. Zero Cloud Media Upload

All video compression (Apple VideoToolbox high-fidelity 10-bit HDR HEVC with original audio passthrough), Live Photo still extraction (PhotoKit), screenshot/recording triage, Best Shot burst scoring (Apple Vision feature prints and face capture quality), and duplicate file hashing (32 KB head/tail pre-filter + CryptoKit SHA-256) execute strictly in local memory on your iPhone (iOS 17.0+), iPad (iPadOS 17.0+), or Mac (macOS 14.0+). We do not operate media-processing servers and never upload, view, or store your personal files.

2. Permissions & Required Reason APIs

• Photo Library Access (iOS/iPadOS): Requested only when you grant access, solely to inspect local videos, screenshots, and bursts on-device, save optimized copies while preserving audio, creation date, and GPS metadata, and move confirmed originals to Apple Photos Recently Deleted upon your confirmation.
• User-Selected Folders (macOS): Accessed locally via standard macOS Open Panels and security-scoped bookmarks to move user-confirmed cache or duplicate items to the system Trash with Cmd+Z restore support.
• Local Preferences (UserDefaults): Used exclusively inside the app container to store your theme, ignored-path whitelist, and local undo history.

3. No Tracking or Third-Party Ad SDKs

We do not integrate third-party advertising SDKs, cross-app trackers, or behavioral analytics (NSPrivacyTracking = false). In-App Purchases on the Apple App Store are processed directly by Apple via StoreKit 2.
