Privacy Policy

Introduction

Stitchi ("we," "our," or "the app") is a screenshot stitching application developed for iOS and iPadOS. We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how Stitchi handles your information.

Information We Do NOT Collect

Stitchi does NOT collect:

• ✕Personal identification information
• ✕Location data
• ✕Device identifiers for tracking purposes
• ✕Usage analytics or behavioral data
• ✕Crash reports sent to external servers
• ✕Any data transmitted to third-party services

Data Processing

Photos and Images

• How we access photos: Stitchi uses Apple's PhotosPicker to let you select images. We only access the specific photos you explicitly choose to stitch together.
• How we process photos: All image processing, including AI-powered overlap detection, occurs entirely on your device using Apple's on-device frameworks (Vision, Foundation Models/Apple Intelligence).
• How we store results: Stitched images are saved to your device's local storage within the app or to your Photo Library only when you explicitly choose to save or export them.
• No cloud uploads: Your images are never uploaded to any external server or cloud service.

On-Device AI Processing

Stitchi may use Apple Intelligence (Foundation Models) on supported devices (iOS 18.1+) to analyze screenshots and detect optimal stitching points. This AI processing:

• ✓Runs entirely on your device
• ✓Does not send any data to external servers
• ✓Does not require an internet connection
• ✓Is subject to Apple's on-device AI privacy protections

Local Storage

Stitchi stores the following data locally on your device:

• User preferences: Export format (JPEG/PNG), image quality settings, and UI preferences
• Stitched images: Saved results are stored in the app's local documents folder
• Export counter: A simple count for the free tier export limit (stored securely in Keychain)

All locally stored data is protected by iOS's built-in encryption, accessible only by the Stitchi app, and deleted when you uninstall the app.

Third-Party Services

Apple Services

Stitchi integrates with the following Apple services:

• App Store / StoreKit: For processing in-app purchases (Stitchi Pro). Purchase transactions are handled entirely by Apple according to Apple's privacy policy.
• Photo Library: For saving exported images when you choose to do so.
• Share Extension: To receive images shared from other apps for stitching.

We do not use any third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking services.

In-App Purchases

Stitchi offers an optional "Stitchi Pro" upgrade. All purchase transactions are processed by Apple through the App Store. We do not have access to your payment information. Please refer to Apple's Privacy Policy for information about how Apple handles purchase data.

Children's Privacy

Stitchi does not knowingly collect any personal information from children. Since our app does not collect any personal data from any user, it is safe for users of all ages.

Data Security

Your data security is ensured through:

• ✓On-device processing: All operations happen locally on your device
• ✓iOS encryption: All stored data is protected by iOS's built-in encryption
• ✓Keychain storage: Sensitive data like export counts are stored in the secure iOS Keychain
• ✓App sandboxing: iOS prevents other apps from accessing Stitchi's data

Your Rights and Controls

You have full control over your data:

• Delete stitched images: Remove saved results anytime from within the app's Library
• Revoke photo access: Manage photo permissions in iOS Settings → Privacy → Photos
• Uninstall: Removing the app deletes all locally stored app data

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date.
