Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 17th 2025

Introduction

GlowDuck ("we", "our", "us") provides a mobile app and website (the "Service") that helps you track skin progress, build habits, and receive friendly AI insights. This Privacy Policy explains what we collect, how we use it, and your choices.

Information We Collect

  • Account info: Email and display name.
  • Habit and progress data: Habits you track and completion records.
  • Weekly progress photos: If you take a weekly face photo, it is saved on your device by default (see "Photos and AI Analysis").
  • Analytics: Anonymous usage and performance metrics (no IDFA unless you explicitly adopt ATT).

Photos and AI Analysis

  • On-device storage: Your weekly progress photos are stored locally on your device by default.
  • AI analysis: If you initiate analysis, the app may send the current week's photo to our AI processing service to generate scores and friendly feedback. When implemented server-side, we will use short‑lived, access‑controlled handling and delete uploaded copies promptly after analysis.
  • We do not publish or share your photos with other users.

How We Use Data

  • Provide app functionality: habit tracking, weekly analysis, progress views.
  • Improve the Service: performance, reliability, and feature development.
  • Communications: reminders, critical service notices, and account-related messages.

Sharing

  • Service providers: We use trusted vendors strictly to operate the Service (e.g., analytics, subscriptions). They may process limited data on our behalf under confidentiality and security obligations.
  • Legal: We may disclose information to comply with law, protect rights, prevent fraud/abuse, or ensure user safety.

Data Security

  • Encryption in transit and at rest (where data is stored off-device).
  • Access controls and least-privilege practices for internal tools.
  • Regular security reviews.

Your Choices

  • Photos: Photos are stored on-device by default. You control whether to take a weekly photo. Per‑photo deletion is not currently available in-app; you can delete all app data or request account deletion (below). We plan to add finer controls in future updates.
  • Notifications: You can enable/disable in device settings.
  • Account deletion: You can request deletion of your account and associated data we store off-device. Device-stored photos remain on your device until you remove them (e.g., by deleting the app's data or using future in-app deletion tools).

Children's Privacy

The Service is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect data from children under 13.

Changes

We may update this policy as the Service evolves. We'll post updates here and update the "Last updated" date.
