Privacy Policy

Scope

This policy covers the Nimo iPhone and iPad app, these support pages, and support messages sent to Song Yufei. Nimo does not require a Nimo account and does not upload your photos or recognized text to a developer-operated server for processing.

Images and local storage

The app processes images and text locally using device APIs. Imported originals, project previews, redaction regions, templates and preferences may be stored in the app’s local container. Imported originals can still contain the information you later cover in an exported copy.

The share extension temporarily stores selected images in a shared app container so the app can open them. Imported shared files are removed after being read, and expired shared files are eligible for local cleanup.

Face data Nimo processes

When you choose a photo, Nimo uses Apple’s on-device Vision framework to detect whether faces are present and calculate rectangular face locations. Nimo does not perform face recognition, identify a person, infer identity or attributes, or create facial geometry, faceprints or biometric templates.

How face data is used

Face locations are used only to suggest areas you may blur, pixelate or cover and to check for unredacted faces before export. Processing happens entirely on your device.

Face-data storage and retention

Nimo does not upload face data to a developer-operated server. Detection results exist in memory while a photo is analyzed. If you save a project, the selected photo and redaction regions, which may include a rectangle marked as a face, are stored only in Nimo’s local app container until you delete that project or uninstall Nimo. The developer has no remote copy.

Face-data sharing and disclosure

Nimo does not sell, rent, share or disclose face data to third parties. Apple provides the Vision framework and purchase services, but Nimo does not send photos or face-detection results to Apple through Vision. An exported image is shared only when you choose a destination using the iOS share sheet.

Face-data deletion

Delete a project from Nimo’s home screen to remove its locally stored source image, preview and redaction regions. Uninstalling Nimo removes its local app container. Because Nimo does not keep face data on a developer-operated server, there is no server-side face data to request that we delete.

Permissions and system services

Nimo uses the system photo picker and, when you enable related actions, Photos access to open selected images, locate a recent screenshot, save edited images, replace an original, or perform a requested deletion. Clipboard access is used when you choose to import clipboard content. These permissions do not authorize developer access to your content.

Nimo does not provide its own cloud sync. Photos in iCloud Photos and app data included in your device backups may be handled by Apple according to your settings and Apple’s Privacy Policy.

Purchases

Apple processes Nimo Pro purchases and restoration. Nimo verifies purchase-entitlement information using StoreKit to enable output features. The developer does not receive your payment-card details. Apple handles its own account, payment and transaction information.

Analytics, advertising and tracking

The current app does not include advertising, third-party analytics SDKs or cross-app tracking. Preferences are stored with UserDefaults for app functionality, not tracking.

Support communications

If you email us, we receive the address, message and attachments you voluntarily send. We use this information to respond, troubleshoot and maintain necessary support records. It is not used for advertising or sold. Please redact private content before attaching images.

Support records are kept only as needed to resolve requests, maintain relevant records or comply with legal obligations. Contact us to request access, correction or deletion of information you have sent; applicable retention requirements may still apply.

This website

These static pages do not embed analytics, advertising, external fonts or tracking scripts. GitHub Pages, when used to host them, may process connection information such as IP addresses for delivery and security under GitHub’s Privacy Statement. Following external links subjects you to the respective provider’s policies.

Deletion and control

You can delete local projects from Nimo and manage templates in the app. Separate copies in Photos or Files must be deleted there. Uninstalling removes the app’s local container, but does not necessarily delete copies stored in Photos, Files or backups. Purchase records remain with Apple.

Children and policy changes

Nimo has no account registration and does not intentionally collect children’s information through the app. If you believe a child has sent personal information to support, contact us. We will update this page and its date when our practices change.
