Privacy Policy
Effective date: July 4, 2026
1. Who we are
This policy describes how Skinlapse ("the app", "we") handles information. Skinlapse is operated by:
Oliver Kornmann

Email: support@halora.app
2. The principle: your photos never leave your device
Skinlapse is built without accounts, without a cloud and without tracking. Every photo you take with Skinlapse is stored locally on your iPhone only (inside the app's protected container). We have no access to your photos and cannot see them.
We collect no: user accounts, names, email addresses, location data, analytics (no Firebase, no Mixpanel), advertising or tracking SDKs. We never sell data.
3. Data processed locally
- Camera frames for the live preview and your daily progress photos — on-device only.
- Your journey data (capture dates, streak) — stored in the local app database.
- Generated videos — rendered locally; they only reach your Photos library if you actively save or share them.
- Settings (e.g. reminder time) — stored locally.
- Reminders are scheduled as local notifications on your device, no server involved.
4. Data processed if you purchase Skinlapse Pro
If you purchase Skinlapse Pro, our service provider RevenueCat, Inc. (USA) processes on our behalf:
- a randomly generated, anonymous app user ID (not linked to your name, Apple ID or email),
- purchase transaction events from Apple (purchase, renewal, cancellation, refund) to verify your Pro entitlement.
Payment details are handled exclusively by Apple; we never see them. Transfers to the US rely on the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework and/or EU Standard Contractual Clauses. Details: revenuecat.com/privacy, apple.com/legal/privacy.
5. Permissions
- Camera — for the live preview and your daily photo. Active in the foreground only.
- Add to Photos — only to save the videos you create, when you actively trigger it.
- Notifications (optional) — for your daily reminder, scheduled locally.
You can revoke any permission at any time in iOS Settings.
6. Your rights
Under the GDPR (and similar laws such as UK GDPR and CCPA/CPRA) you have rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability and objection, and the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. Since we collect virtually no personal data, there is usually nothing to hand over or delete — on request via support@halora.app we will reset or delete the anonymous ID stored with RevenueCat.
7. Children
Skinlapse is rated 4+, knowingly collects no data from children and requires no account. In-app purchases require Apple ID confirmation or Family Sharing "Ask to Buy".
8. Changes
If we make material changes, we will update this policy and the date above. The current version always lives at this URL.
