Privacy Policy

Last updated • April 6, 2026

01

Introduction

Beeclean ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our mobile application Beeclean and any related services (collectively, the "Service").

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. By using the Service, you consent to the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree with the terms of this Privacy Policy, please do not access the Service.

This Privacy Policy is tailored for users in the United States and complies with applicable privacy laws including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for users in the European Economic Area.

02

Information We Collect

We collect several types of information from and about users of our Service:

2.1 Personal Information

When you create an account or use premium features, we may collect:

  • Your name and email address
  • Apple ID information (as provided by Sign in with Apple)
  • Subscription status and payment information (processed by Apple)
  • Customer support communications

2.2 Device and Usage Information

We automatically collect certain information about your device and usage of the Service:

  • Device type, model, and operating system version
  • Unique device identifiers (IDFV/IDFA)
  • App usage statistics and performance metrics
  • Crash logs and diagnostic data
  • Language and region settings

2.3 Photos and Media (Important)

Beeclean processes your photos and videos locally on your device. We do not upload, store, or have access to your personal media files on our servers. All image analysis, duplicate detection, and cleanup operations happen directly on your iPhone. We only collect metadata about cleanup actions (e.g., "X duplicates removed") for analytics purposes, without any identifiable content.

2.4 Analytics Data

We use third-party analytics services (such as Firebase Analytics and App Store Connect Analytics) to understand how users interact with our app. These services collect anonymous usage data that helps us improve the Service. You can opt out of analytics tracking through your device settings.

03

How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Provide, maintain, and improve the Beeclean Service and its features
  • Process your subscriptions and manage your account through Apple's systems
  • Send you service-related notifications (e.g., scan completion, subscription updates)
  • Respond to your comments, questions, and customer support requests
  • Monitor and analyze trends, usage, and activities in connection with the Service
  • Detect, prevent, and address technical issues, fraud, or security concerns
  • Personalize your experience and deliver content relevant to your interests
04

Data Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personal information to third parties except in the following circumstances:

4.1 Service Providers

We work with trusted third-party service providers who assist us in operating our Service, including:

  • Apple Inc. (for App Store distribution, in-app purchases, and Sign in with Apple)
  • Firebase (Google) for analytics and crash reporting (data is anonymized)
  • Cloud service providers for backend infrastructure (no user media stored)

4.2 Legal Requirements

We may disclose your information if required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities (e.g., a court or government agency).

4.3 Business Transfers

If Beeclean is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or substantially all its assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will provide notice via our website or email before such a transfer occurs.

4.4 Protection of Rights

We may disclose information to protect the rights, property, or safety of Beeclean, our users, or others. This includes enforcing our Terms & Conditions.

05

Data Security

The security of your data is our top priority. We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your information:

  • Local Processing: All photo and video analysis is performed directly on your device. No personal media is uploaded to our servers.
  • Encryption: All data transmitted between your device and our servers is encrypted using HTTPS/TLS.
  • Access Controls: We restrict access to personal information to employees, contractors, and agents who need to know that information to process it.
  • Regular Security Audits: We regularly review our data collection, storage, and processing practices to guard against unauthorized access.

However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

06

Your Data Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the following rights regarding your personal data:

6.1 Access & Portability

You can request a copy of the personal information we hold about you in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format.

6.2 Correction & Deletion

You may request that we correct inaccurate information or delete your personal data. Note that we may retain certain information as required by law or for legitimate business purposes.

6.3 Restriction & Objection

You may object to or request restriction of certain processing of your data, particularly for direct marketing purposes.

6.4 How to Exercise Your Rights

6.5 Complaints

If you are not satisfied with our response, you may lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

07

Cookies and Tracking

Our mobile application does not use traditional web cookies. However, we may use:

  • Third-party SDKs: Analytics platforms may use their own tracking technologies. These are configured to respect user privacy choices (e.g., App Tracking Transparency on iOS).
  • Device identifiers: For analytics and to detect unique installations, we collect IDFA/IDFV as allowed by your device settings.

You can control tracking through your iOS Settings under Privacy & Security > Tracking. Opting out may affect certain analytics features but does not impact core functionality of Beeclean.

08

Children's Privacy

Beeclean is not intended for use by children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately at privacy@beeclean.com and we will promptly delete such information.

09

Data Retention

We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

  • Account data is retained until you delete your account (through App Store subscription cancellation)
  • Analytics data is anonymized and retained for up to 26 months
  • Customer support correspondence is retained for 3 years for quality assurance
