1. About this policy
This privacy policy explains how Reelic, the Android film-camera app, and its developer handle your information. It also covers this Reelic website. For privacy questions and requests, contact Reelic’s developer at app.dev.ua@gmail.com.
2. Camera access and your photographs
Reelic asks for camera permission to show a viewfinder and take photos. Captured originals, developed images, thumbnails, and local roll records are stored in the app’s private storage on your phone. Photo processing takes place on the device; Reelic does not upload your photographs to its servers.
When you choose to export, the app writes copies of developed photos to your Android gallery. Those copies may be processed or backed up by gallery or cloud services you use, under their own policies. Reelic does not request location, microphone, or contacts permissions in its current version.
3. Account and service information
| Information | Purpose and handling |
|---|---|
| Google sign-in information | Google and Firebase Authentication process your sign-in, including your Google account identifier, email address, and profile information made available through sign-in. Reelic uses the resulting user ID and display name to authenticate you and show your account. |
| Installation and roll records | An app-generated installation ID, roll IDs, chosen film and version, frame counts, roll status, timestamps, and operation IDs support roll access and reliable synchronization. These are service records, not uploaded photo files. |
| Access records | Account status, trial dates, and access authorizations determine whether you can load new rolls, including authorized offline use. |
| Security and technical information | Google’s authentication, app-integrity, and hosting services may process network information such as IP addresses, integrity signals, request metadata, and operational logs to run and secure the service. |
| Support correspondence | If you email us, we receive your address and the information you include so we can answer questions or handle privacy requests. |
| Purchases and subscriptions | Google Play purchase tokens, product and plan identifiers, order information, subscription status and periods, renewal and verification status, and an account association allow us to verify purchases, restore access, and process renewal or cancellation notifications. Reelic does not receive your payment card or bank details. |
The current app does not include advertising, Firebase Analytics, or Crashlytics SDKs. We do not sell personal information or use your photos for advertising or AI training.
4. Service providers and disclosures
Reelic uses Google sign-in and Firebase Authentication, Firestore, Cloud Functions, and App Check for accounts, roll metadata, access checks, and app integrity. Google Play processes subscription payments; our backend verifies purchases and receives subscription status notifications. Google Cloud provides operational logs and failure monitoring. Support email is handled through Gmail. This website is hosted through OpenAI Sites and its hosting infrastructure, which may process normal web-request and security information.
We use these providers to operate and secure Reelic. We may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to comply with a legal obligation, protect people or the service, or respond to a valid legal request. We do not add marketing trackers or advertising cookies to this website.
When you use the website’s language switch, we save only your chosen language (English or Ukrainian) in your browser’s local storage so that future visits use that choice. You can remove this preference by clearing this site’s browser data.
Providers may process information in countries other than your own. See Firebase’s privacy and security information, Google’s privacy policy, and OpenAI’s privacy policy.
5. Security
The app uses encrypted HTTPS connections to its backend. Account actions use authenticated identity and app-integrity checks; interrupted account deletion can be recovered using a private random confirmation key. Android isolates photos in app storage, and Reelic disables Android’s automatic backup of its private data. Access is limited to what is needed to operate and support the service.
No storage or transmission method guarantees absolute security. Keep your phone secure and export photos you want to preserve.
6. Retention and deletion
Photos and local roll records remain on your phone until you delete them, clear app data, or uninstall Reelic. Deleting a completed roll removes its originals, developed images, and thumbnails. Deleting an account in the app also removes that account’s private photos and rolls on the current phone, including unfinished rolls. Copies already exported to your gallery remain.
We keep account, installation, access, server roll, and subscription verification records while your Reelic account exists. These records do not expire automatically merely because you stop using the app.
An in-app deletion request starts automatic server cleanup after you confirm your identity. Acceptance of the request does not mean every cleanup step has already finished; interrupted cleanup is retried. Verified requests, including requests sent by email, are completed in our active account systems within 30 days. We remove the authentication account, account and access records, installations, server roll metadata, grants, synchronization records, and purchase verification records and account bindings held by Reelic.
A confirmation of an interrupted deletion may remain if the final cleanup message is lost. It contains a random-key hash and an acceptance flag, without your account ID, email, or purchase data, and has no fixed expiry so recovery remains possible after a long offline period. General operational and security logs follow the providers’ retention settings. If a specific identifiable record must be retained for a legal obligation or documented security or fraud-prevention reason, we limit retention to what is necessary and explain its category, reason, and period when handling your request.
Google Play keeps its own transaction records under its policies; deleting Reelic does not delete those records or cancel a subscription. Support correspondence is kept as needed to resolve your request, handle follow-up, or meet legal obligations; you can request its removal. We do not keep cloud copies of your photos.
7. Your choices and privacy requests
You can revoke camera permission in Android settings and sign out of Reelic. Signing out does not delete your account or photos. To delete your account, open Settings → Account → Delete account and confirm your identity with Google. You can also request deletion without the app through our Delete account page or by emailing app.dev.ua@gmail.com from your sign-in address.
Depending on applicable law, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or obtain a copy of your personal information, object to certain processing, or complain to a data-protection authority. Contact us to exercise those rights. We may need to verify that a request relates to your account.
Export photos you want to keep before deleting your account. In-app deletion removes the account’s private photos on the current phone, but does not erase other devices or exported gallery copies. An email request cannot remotely clear your phone: clear Reelic’s app storage or uninstall it to remove remaining local files. Your Google account is unaffected. Cancel any Google Play subscription separately.
8. Children’s privacy
Reelic is intended for teenagers aged 13 and over and adults, and is not directed to children under 13. You must also meet the Google-account eligibility requirements that apply in your country and obtain parental or guardian permission where required. If you believe a child has provided information contrary to these requirements, contact app.dev.ua@gmail.com so we can investigate and arrange appropriate deletion.
9. Changes and contact
We update this policy when our data practices change. The date above identifies the latest version. Material changes will be communicated through the app or this website as appropriate.
