Privacy Policy

Unshade does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. All photo processing happens entirely on your device. We have no servers, no analytics, and no way to access your information.

The app requests read-only access to your photo library solely to extract GPS coordinates from image metadata (EXIF data). Photos are never copied, uploaded, or modified. Only coordinate data is used to display your travel map.

All extracted location data is stored locally on your device using secure, sandboxed storage. This data never leaves your device and is automatically deleted when you uninstall the app.

Unshade uses Mapbox to display maps. When viewing map areas, tile images are downloaded from Mapbox servers. These requests contain only geographic coordinates of the visible area, not your personal location history.

Unshade uses publicly available geographic data from 2025 from international sources such as the United Nations to calculate country boundaries, land areas, and regional statistics. This general reference data is bundled with the app and does not contain any personal information.

We do not share your photo library, extracted location history, or travel data with third parties. Unshade uses Mapbox for map tiles and RevenueCat to manage optional in-app purchases and subscription entitlements. We do not use ads, analytics services, or social media integrations.

You can delete all local Unshade data at any time through your device settings or by uninstalling the app. If you used an in-app purchase or subscription, RevenueCat may retain purchase identifiers and entitlement records required to manage access. To request deletion of RevenueCat customer data, contact hello@unshade.app and include your RevenueCat App User ID if available. Subscription cancellation is handled separately through Apple App Store or Google Play.

Since your photo and location data remains on your device, you have complete control over it. You can delete local app data at any time through your device settings or by uninstalling the app.
