Privacy Policy

Last Updated: June 22, 2026

Introduction

Welcome to InstaCapture ("we," "our," or "us"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use the InstaCapture mobile application (the "App").

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. If you do not agree with its terms, please do not use the App.

Summary

InstaCapture is designed to work primarily on your device. Video capture, editing, captions, and shot-list planning happen locally. We do not operate our own cloud servers to collect, store, or sell your videos, audio, transcripts, or shot lists.

If you purchase InstaCapture Pro, subscription status and related purchase metadata are processed by Apple and our subscription provider, RevenueCat, as described below. We do not receive your payment card details.

Information We Collect

Device Permissions

The App requests access to the following device features only when needed to provide App functionality:

1. Camera Access

  • Purpose: To capture videos through the App.
  • Usage: Accessed when you use the camera feature.
  • Storage: Video is recorded only when you start recording. Preview frames are not saved unless you record.

2. Microphone Access

  • Purpose: To record audio during video capture and, when you choose, during voiceover recording in the editor.
  • Usage: Accessed during recording or when you record a voiceover in the editor.
  • Storage: Audio is stored only as part of recordings you create.

3. Photo Library Access

  • Purpose: To save captured and exported videos to your device's photo library when you choose to export or save.
  • Usage: Accessed when you save or export media.
  • Storage: Saved files are stored in your device's photo library under your control.

4. Speech Recognition Access

  • Purpose: To generate captions and transcripts from audio in your videos when you use caption or transcript features.
  • Usage: Accessed only when you request transcription or captions.
  • Processing: Transcription uses Apple's on-device speech recognition framework. Audio from your videos is processed on your device to produce captions. We do not receive your audio or transcript text on our servers.

Local Data Stored on Your Device

The App stores the following data locally on your device:

  • Recorded video clips and thumbnails
  • Edited video projects and exported edits
  • Temporary cache files needed for App operation
  • Shot-list checklist items and related notes
  • App preferences such as theme and camera settings
  • Your InstaCapture Pro access state as cached by the App after purchase verification

This data remains on your device unless you delete it, remove the App, or share content using features you initiate (such as the system share sheet).

On-Device AI Features

If you use shot-list generation, the App may use Apple Intelligence on supported devices to turn your text prompt into suggested shot ideas. That processing happens on your device through Apple's system frameworks. We do not receive your prompts or generated shot lists on our servers.

Subscription and Purchase Information

If you subscribe to InstaCapture Pro or use Restore Purchases, the following applies:

Apple App Store

  • Payments are processed by Apple through the App Store.
  • We do not collect or store your payment card number, billing address, or other full payment credentials.
  • Apple may provide us or our service providers with purchase-related information needed to verify subscription status, such as product purchased, transaction identifiers, subscription status, and renewal or expiration dates.

RevenueCat

We use RevenueCat, Inc. to manage in-app subscriptions and verify whether you have access to InstaCapture Pro. RevenueCat may receive and process information such as:

  • An anonymous or app-specific customer identifier
  • Your App Store transaction and subscription status
  • Product identifiers (for example, monthly or yearly InstaCapture Pro plans)
  • Device and app information used to deliver subscription services and prevent fraud
  • General usage diagnostics related to purchases and restores

RevenueCat does not receive your videos, audio, transcripts, or other creative content from the App.

RevenueCat's privacy practices are described at revenuecat.com/privacy.

We use subscription information only to:

  • Determine whether you have access to InstaCapture Pro features
  • Support restore purchases and subscription management
  • Provide customer support related to billing questions we can answer
  • Maintain the security and reliability of paid features

How We Use Your Information

We use the permissions and data described above solely to:

  • Provide core App functionality, including camera capture, recording, editing, and playback
  • Save and manage your recordings and edits on your device
  • Generate captions and transcripts when you request them
  • Help you plan shoots with notes and optional on-device shot-list generation
  • Maintain temporary files needed for App operation
  • Verify, deliver, and support InstaCapture Pro subscriptions

Data Sharing and Disclosure

InstaCapture does not:

  • Sell your personal information
  • Operate advertising networks inside the App
  • Upload your videos, audio, transcripts, or shot lists to our servers

We may share limited information with service providers only as needed to operate the App:

  • Apple — payment processing, subscription billing, and App Store account services
  • RevenueCat — subscription management and purchase verification

These providers process information under their own privacy policies and applicable agreements. We require that they use information only to provide services to us or as required by law.

When you use the system share sheet or save to your photo library, you choose what to share and with which apps or services. Any data handled by those third-party apps or services is governed by their own policies.

Apple may process certain on-device requests through its system services (for example, speech recognition or Apple Intelligence) under Apple's own terms and privacy practices.

Data Security

We take a local-first approach to protecting your content:

  • Recordings and edits are stored in the App's on-device storage areas and, when you choose, in your photo library
  • We do not transmit your media to InstaCapture-operated servers
  • Subscription verification uses industry-standard App Store and RevenueCat services
  • You can delete clips and edits within the App
  • You can remove the App to delete App-specific on-device data
  • You can manage permissions at any time in your device Settings

No method of electronic storage or transmission is completely secure, but limiting media processing to your device reduces exposure compared with cloud-based editing workflows.

Children's Privacy

The App does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are under 13, please do not use the App without verifiable parental consent.

Paid subscriptions must be authorized by the Apple ID account holder in accordance with Apple's rules.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the updated policy at instacaptureapp.com/privacy-policy and update the "Last Updated" date.

Your continued use of the App after changes become effective means you accept the revised policy.

Your Rights and Choices

Because your creative content is stored locally on your device, you remain in control. You can:

  • Delete recordings and edits within the App
  • Export or save content only when you choose
  • Turn permissions on or off in iOS Settings
  • Remove the App and its on-device data at any time
  • Manage or cancel subscriptions in your Apple ID account settings
  • Use Restore Purchases in the App if you reinstall or change devices

Depending on where you live, you may have additional privacy rights under applicable law. Because we do not maintain a central account system or server copy of your media, many requests related to your videos can be fulfilled directly by deleting content on your device or uninstalling the App.

For subscription-related privacy requests, contact us using the information below. You may also contact Apple or RevenueCat directly regarding data they process as independent controllers or processors.
