Overview
Vacio ("the app", "we", "us") is a photo and video cleaner for iOS. This policy explains what data the app does and does not collect. The short version: Vacio analyzes your photos entirely on your device, and your photos and videos are never uploaded to any server.
No account, no servers for your media
Vacio has no sign-up and no login. We do not operate a server that receives, stores, or processes your photos or videos. All scanning — finding similar photos, duplicates, screenshots, and large videos — runs locally on your device.
Photo library access
With your permission, Vacio reads your photo library to scan it on-device and to delete items you choose. This access is used only to provide the app's features. Vacio never transmits your media off the device. When you delete items, they are moved to the iOS Photos "Recently Deleted" album, where you can recover them for 30 days.
Information processed by third-party services
Vacio uses a small number of third-party services that may process limited, non-photo data:
- Firebase Analytics (Google): anonymous, aggregated usage events (for example, that a scan completed or how much space is recoverable) to help us understand how the app is used and improve it. These events do not contain your photos or any content from them.
- Firebase Crashlytics (Google): crash and stability diagnostics so we can fix bugs.
- Firebase Remote Config (Google): feature flags and configuration values delivered to the app. This is a one-way download of settings and does not send your data.
- RevenueCat & Apple: if you purchase a subscription, the transaction is handled by Apple's App Store and managed through RevenueCat. We do not receive or store your payment details.
We do not use Firebase Authentication, Cloud Firestore, Realtime Database, or any custom backend that stores your content.
Data we do not collect
- We do not collect or upload your photos or videos.
- We do not collect your name, email, or contacts.
- We do not sell your data to anyone.
Children's privacy
Vacio is not directed to children under 13 and does not knowingly collect personal information from them.
