Our Core Privacy Promise

FaceGym collects ZERO personal data. Everything happens on your device. Your face data never leaves your iPhone.

1. Information We Do NOT Collect

FaceGym is designed with privacy by default. We do not collect, store, transmit, or process any of the following:

  • Facial recognition data - All face tracking happens locally using Apple's TrueDepth camera
  • Personal information - No names, emails, phone numbers, or addresses
  • Usage analytics - No tracking of how you use the app
  • Device identifiers - No collection of device IDs or advertising identifiers
  • Location data - We don't access or use your location
  • Photos or videos - Camera data is processed in real-time and never saved
  • Health information - No collection of health or biometric data
  • Contact information - No access to your contacts or communications

2. How FaceGym Works Without Data Collection

🏗️ On-Device Processing

All facial recognition and exercise tracking uses Apple's built-in TrueDepth camera technology. Processing happens entirely on your iPhone's neural engine.

🚫 No Network Connections

FaceGym doesn't require internet connectivity to function. The app operates completely offline with no data transmission.

3. Camera and Face Data Usage

Camera Permission

FaceGym requires camera access to provide real-time feedback during facial exercises. Here's how we use this permission:

  • Real-time processing only - Camera data is analyzed instantly and discarded
  • No recording or storage - No photos, videos, or face data are ever saved
  • Local processing - All analysis happens on your device using Apple's frameworks
  • No biometric storage - No face prints, templates, or identifiers are created
  • Session-based only - Camera access ends when you close the exercise session

4. Third-Party Services

FaceGym uses NO third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking services.This includes:

  • No Google Analytics or Firebase
  • No Facebook SDK or social media tracking
  • No advertising networks or ad tracking
  • No crash reporting services that transmit data
  • No cloud storage or backup services

The only external service integration is the App Store for downloads and updates, which is managed entirely by Apple.

5. Data Storage and Security

Local Storage Only

Any app preferences or settings are stored locally on your device using Apple's standard frameworks:

  • UserDefaults - For app settings and preferences
  • No user-identifiable data - Only anonymous settings like volume preferences
  • Device-only access - Data never leaves your iPhone
  • Automatic cleanup - Data is removed when you uninstall the app

6. Children's Privacy (COPPA Compliance)

FaceGym is safe for users of all ages because we collect no personal information whatsoever. Since there is no data collection, transmission, or storage of personal information, there are no COPPA concerns.

Parents can feel confident that their children's privacy is completely protected when using FaceGym.

7. International Privacy Laws

GDPR, CCPA, and Global Compliance

FaceGym's privacy-by-design architecture ensures compliance with privacy laws worldwide:

  • GDPR (EU) - No personal data processing means no GDPR obligations
  • CCPA (California) - No personal information collected means no sale or sharing
  • Right to erasure - No data exists to erase
  • Data portability - No data exists to port
  • Consent - Only for camera access, managed by iOS

8. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date. Since FaceGym doesn't collect data, most changes would be clarifications rather than changes to our data practices.

Continued use of the app after any changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.

9. Technical Implementation

Apple Technologies Used

FaceGym leverages Apple's privacy-focused technologies:

  • ARKit and TrueDepth Camera - For real-time face tracking without data storage
  • Core ML - For on-device machine learning processing
  • AVFoundation - For camera access with no recording capabilities
  • SwiftUI and UIKit - For native iOS interface with no tracking
