yCam Privacy Policy

Last Updated: September 26, 2026 Effective Date: September 26, 2026

This Policy explains what information yCam (the "App") handles, why, where it is stored, and how you control it. The App is operated by Hangzhou Xingxi Technology Co., Ltd. ("we", "us"), which is the controller of the information described here. By tapping "Agree" you confirm that you have read this Policy.

In short: your photos, videos and viewfinder images never leave your device. All AI features, including AI Looks and AI composition, run on your device. Signing in is optional. Usage statistics are off until you choose to allow them, and you can turn them off at any time. We do not sell or share your personal information.

1. What Stays on Your Device

  • The live viewfinder, all look (filter) rendering and color adjustments
  • AI Looks: scene matching, look generation and learning your taste all run on your device with models built into the App. Your taste profile never leaves your device
  • AI composition and AI crop: run on your device with built-in models
  • Photos and videos you take: saved to your system photo library
  • The card images of looks you save, look strengths, presets and settings: stored inside the App

2. What We Receive, and Why

2.1 Anonymous install ID (every launch)

When the App starts, it registers with our server using a random install ID created when you install the App. It is not derived from your device (we do not use the advertising identifier, the vendor identifier, serial numbers or DeviceCheck), is not linked to your real identity, and is deleted when you uninstall the App; a reinstall creates a new one that we cannot link to the old one. Along with it we receive the App version, system version, device model and language. We use this to keep the service working and to count how many installs are active. We keep the install record, with the last time it was seen, until the install is no longer in use; the daily record of active installs is deleted after 180 days.

2.2 Record of your consent

We keep a record of when you agreed to which version of these documents, and each time you turn usage statistics on or off, with the time and App version. It contains no IP address, location or account data; its subject is this install, not you as a person. We keep it for as long as the install exists, so that we can show your choice was respected, and it is not deleted when you delete your account.

2.3 Optional account (only if you sign in)

If you choose Sign in with Apple, we receive an anonymous user identifier from Apple and a token that lets us revoke the sign-in with Apple when you delete your account. We do not request, receive or store your name, email address, phone number or age. We also record which install was signed in to the account and when, so that your saved looks follow your account. Account data is kept until you delete the account; in this version we do not proactively delete accounts for inactivity. When you delete your account we show success immediately and complete the server-side deletion within 24 hours, keeping only an anonymous deletion record (a random id and a timestamp) to prove it was carried out; signing in again with the same Apple ID afterwards creates a brand-new, empty account.

2.4 Saved looks (only if you sign in)

To restore your saved looks on your other devices, we store for each saved look: its ID, the version of the look set, for looks generated for you a set of 32 numbers that describe the colors, and the time it was saved. The card image taken when you saved a look is never uploaded. On a new device, the App draws a new card image on your device by applying the look to your current viewfinder. When you remove a saved look, we keep a deletion marker for 90 days so that your other devices also remove it. Saved looks are capped per account (currently 500).

2.5 Usage statistics (only if you allow them)

The "Help improve yCam" choice is off until you decide. If you allow it, the App sends usage events such as: app launch time and permission status; session length and counts; which looks were applied, swiped, saved or removed and for how long a look was used; whether a photo or video was saved and with which options (look, Live, front camera, aspect ratio, AI composition); reasons a save failed; editing and AI composition steps; guide steps; setting changes; sign-in and sign-out events (without your account ID); performance samples (frame rate, device temperature state, battery level, Low Power Mode); and whether the sign-in prompt was shown and its result. Each event carries the install ID, a random session ID, a sequence number, the time rounded to the hour, your time zone offset in whole hours, the App and system version, device model, language, a coarse scene group number computed on the device that cannot reconstruct any image, and internal model version numbers. Our server also records the time it received each event. Events are batched on the device and sent over HTTPS to our own domain only. The server does not store your IP address; gateway access logs are kept for no more than 7 days and are never joined with the install ID.

Usage statistics never contain photos, videos, images, location, your name, email or account ID. Raw events are deleted after 180 days; totals that do not identify any install may be kept longer. You can turn statistics off at any time in Settings → Help improve yCam; doing so stops all sending and deletes unsent events on your device.

3. Where Your Data Is Stored and Data Partition

Our servers are located in the United States (Amazon Web Services, region us-east-2, Ohio). This version operates a single global data partition; all users' data is stored in that partition. The App is not offered in mainland China, the European Union, the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland. Data is sent over encrypted connections (HTTPS).

4. Sharing

We do not sell or share your personal information, do not use it for cross-context behavioral advertising, and do not use it to track you. The App contains no third-party analytics, advertising or social SDKs. Our cloud provider hosts the servers and processes data only on our instructions. Apple handles Sign in with Apple under its own privacy policy. We disclose information only when required by law.

5. Permissions

  1. Camera: to frame and take photos. Required to use the App.
  2. Photo library (add): to save your photos and videos.
  3. Photo library (read): to import photos for editing and show your latest photo as a thumbnail.
  4. Microphone: to record sound in videos. If denied, videos have no sound.
  5. Each permission is requested only when needed. You can change it any time in system Settings. The App does not request your location.

6. Your Rights and Choices

  • Delete your account: in Settings, tap "Delete account". This removes your account, saved looks and account links from our servers and revokes Sign in with Apple.
  • Withdraw consent to statistics: turn off "Help improve yCam" in Settings.
  • Remove local data: uninstalling the App deletes all data stored on your device, including the install ID.
  • Access, rectification and other requests: contact contact@yololiv.com. We reply within 30 days. This version has no in-app data export; export requests are handled through the same contact. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing already carried out beforehand.
  • Complaints: you may complain to us using the contact above, and you also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

7. Security

We use encrypted connections and access controls. The sign-in and install tokens we issue are stored on our servers only in hashed form; on your device they are kept in the this-device-only keychain and are not synced through iCloud. We use Apple's App Attest to verify that requests come from an unmodified copy of the App; the related key identifiers are not linked to any account or install and are kept for no more than 30 days. Usage statistics and accounts are stored in separate tables, and the events table has no account column. If a security incident affecting your information occurs, we will notify you as required by law.

8. Children

The App is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children; we do not collect age information. If you are a minor, please use it with your parent's or guardian's consent. A guardian who believes a child's information was collected may contact us to delete it.

9. Changes to This Policy

When we change this Policy, the App will ask you to review and agree again before you continue.
