Privacy Policy
Your data belongs to you. Period.
Last updated: March 27, 2026
Overview
LATENT (LATN) and MANIFEST (MNFS) are designed with privacy as a core principle. We believe that your photos, your data, and your creative work belong exclusively to you. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle your information — or more accurately, how we don't.
Information We Don't Collect
Your Photos
All photos captured with LATN and developed in MNFS are stored locally on your device. We never upload, access, or process your images on any server.
Personal Information
We don't collect your name, email, location, or any other personal identifiers. No account creation is required to use our apps.
Usage Data
We don't track how you use the apps, which features you access, or how often you shoot. Your creative process is yours alone.
Device Information
We don't collect device identifiers, IP addresses, or technical specifications. Your device information stays on your device.
How Your Data Is Stored
All data created by LATN and MNFS is stored exclusively on your device using the following methods:
- Photos: Saved to your device's Photos library or app-specific storage, entirely under your control.
- Film Rolls: Stored as local app data on your device, synchronized between LATN and MNFS via local device sharing.
- App Settings: Saved using iOS standard UserDefaults, stored locally on your device.
- Custom LUTs: Imported .cube files remain on your device and are never uploaded.
Data Sharing and Third Parties
We do not share, sell, rent, or trade any information with third parties. Our apps do not integrate with:
- Analytics services (Google Analytics, Firebase Analytics, etc.)
- Advertising networks or tracking pixels
- Social media SDKs or data collection frameworks
- Cloud storage services (unless you explicitly choose to back up via iCloud)
App Store and Apple
When you download our apps from the App Store, Apple may collect certain information as part of their standard operations, including:
- App download and purchase information
- Crash logs and technical diagnostics (if you opt in)
- App Store usage analytics
This data collection is governed by Apple's Privacy Policy, not ours. We do not have access to this information.
Device Permissions
Our apps may request access to the following device features:
Data Security
While we don't store your data on our servers, we take the following measures to protect your local data:
- App data is protected by iOS standard security mechanisms
- Photos exported to your Photos library inherit your device's security settings
- No network transmission of your photos or data occurs within our apps
Your Rights
Because all your data is stored locally on your device, you have complete control over it:
- Access: All your photos and film rolls are immediately accessible within the apps.
- Deletion: You can delete any photo, film roll, or app data at any time through the apps' interfaces.
- Export: You can export your developed photos to your Photos library or share them as you see fit.
- App Removal: Uninstalling the apps removes all associated local data from your device.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
