Privacy Policy
Family Archive (“the app”) keeps photos and videos of the people and pets you love and lets you share them with members and friends. This policy explains what we collect, why, and the choices you have.
1. What we collect
- Account: an anonymous account ID created when you first open the app. If you link Sign in with Apple or Google, we receive the account identifier and the email address that Apple or Google shares with us (Apple may give a private relay address).
- Profile: nickname, profile photo, the country flag you choose to show (optional), and your privacy setting.
- Content you add: photos, videos, titles, the date a photo was taken, archive names and cover photos.
- Activity with others: members of shared archives, friends, invites, Stars you send, blocks and reports.
- Device information for notifications: push notification token, app language and time zone.
- Subscription status: whether you have an active subscription and when it renews or ends. Payment is handled by Apple or Google; we never see your card details.
We do not collect your location, contacts or advertising identifier. The app has no ads, no third-party analytics and no cross-app tracking.
2. Photo library and camera
The app only reads the photos and videos you pick, and only uses the camera when you choose to shoot. Saving to your photo library happens only when you tap “Save to Photos”.
3. How we use it
- To store your archives and show them to you, your members and — depending on your privacy settings — other users.
- To send notifications you can turn off (new moments from members, friend requests, invites, trial ending).
- To provide subscription benefits.
- To keep the community safe: reviewing reports (within 24 hours), removing content that breaks the Terms and suspending accounts.
We do not sell your personal information and do not use it for advertising.
4. Who processes it
- Supabase — database, file storage and server functions (servers in Seoul, South Korea).
- RevenueCat — subscription management.
- Apple — Sign in with Apple, push notifications, in-app purchases.
- Google — Google Sign-In, push notifications on Android, Google Play billing.
They process data only to provide these services to us.
5. Who can see your content
Members of a shared archive can see and add to it. Public archives can be seen by other users and may appear in recommendations and the Star ranking. If you make your account or an archive private, only members (and, for a private archive, the owner’s friends) can see it.
6. Keeping and deleting data
We keep your data while your account exists. You can delete any moment, archive or your whole account at any time (Profile → Delete account). Deleting your account erases your profile and your data; archives you shared are handed over to their members, and moments other members uploaded stay in those archives. Backups are cleared within 30 days.
7. Your rights
You can view and edit your information in the app, and ask us to access, correct or delete it by emailing [email protected]. We reply within 7 days.
8. Children
The app is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information. Parents can record their children’s moments in their own archives.
9. Changes
If we change this policy, we will update this page and the effective date, and let you know in the app for significant changes.
