Privacy policy

Effective: October 20, 2026, from hazecam 1.7.

This page explains what hazecam accesses on your iPhone, what leaves it and why. hazecam is made by Davila Studios. There is no account and no login: it is just you and your iPhone, and that is how we treat what passes through it.

Quick summary
  • The camera and microphone record the video. hazecam only adds the result to your camera roll, it never reads what is already there.
  • No account, no login, nothing inside the app identifies who you are.
  • Anonymous usage events (PostHog), crash reports (Sentry) and four moments that measure hazecam's own ads (Meta) leave the iPhone. No video, photo, name, or contact.
  • No ads inside the app. The iPhone advertising identifier is only used if you allow it in the tracking prompt.
  • Purchases are handled by Apple. hazecam never sees your card number.
01

What hazecam accesses, and why

Camera. To film with the film stocks. The image runs through the app's chemistry and goes straight into the recording that stays on your iPhone.

Microphone. To record sound along with the picture.

Photos, add-only. hazecam asks for permission to save the videos you record to your camera roll. It is an add-only permission, not a read permission: the app does not open or see what is already in your library, it only writes the new video there when you ask it to save.

Photos and videos you choose. In DEVELOP and CUT, you can bring in a photo or a video you already have. You pick each file in the iPhone picker or in the Files app, and hazecam receives only that file: it does not ask to read your library and does not see anything else. The chosen file is kept inside the app, on your iPhone, until you delete it in the Roll. The developed copy goes to your camera roll through the same add-only permission. hazecam never sends the file anywhere.

If you import a third-party LUT file (.cube) to build a camera of your own, that file stays only on your iPhone: hazecam reads it to apply the color, and never sends it anywhere.

02

What leaves the iPhone

Three services receive information from hazecam: PostHog, which measures app usage, Sentry, which receives crash reports, and Meta, which measures hazecam's ads. None of them receives video, photos, names, or contacts.

PostHog, app usage

hazecam sends events such as which camera was loaded, whether a recording finished or failed, whether the subscription screen was opened. Every event carries an anonymous identifier, a random code created once when you install the app, with no relation to your name, email, Apple ID, or any account. hazecam never makes the call that would link that code to a person: the identifier stays anonymous from start to finish.

What these events contain: which camera and film stock are loaded, whether a manual control was used, whether a purchase or a restore happened, closed codes like these.

What they never contain: video, photos, or any image frame, text you typed, file names, a person's name, contacts, or email. The PostHog servers hazecam uses are located in the European Union.

Sentry, crash reports

When the app crashes or hits an error, a technical report may be sent to Sentry: which part of the code was running, the iPhone model, the iOS version, and the hazecam version. The same anonymous identifier from PostHog travels with that report, so the two dashboards can be cross-referenced without identifying you.

What these reports never contain: video, photos, your name, email, contacts, or anything you recorded.

Meta, ad measurement

hazecam advertises on Instagram and Facebook. To learn which ads bring people who actually use the app, hazecam uses Meta's event kit (Facebook SDK) and tells Meta about four moments: opening the app, the first saved photo or video, the start of the 3-day free trial, and the subscription, with the plan's price and currency. Technical data such as the iPhone model, iOS version and language goes along.

What Meta never receives: video, photos, or any image frame, file names, what you shoot or edit, your name, email, or contacts.

After your first photo or video, the iPhone shows the tracking prompt once. If you allow it, Meta may use the iPhone advertising identifier to link these moments to the ad you saw. If you do not, that identifier is not sent and Meta receives the same moments without it. You can change your choice at any time in Settings › Privacy & Security › Tracking. Data that reaches Meta is also subject to Meta's privacy policy.

03

Purchases

Buying any hazecam plan, subscription or lifetime, is handled entirely by Apple, inside the App Store. hazecam never sees your card number, your payment details, or your Apple account information: that stays between you and Apple.

04

Ads and tracking

The hazecam app shows no ads and does not sell your data. The only sharing with an advertising company is the Meta measurement described above, used only to measure hazecam's own ads. The iPhone advertising identifier is only used if you allow it in the tracking prompt.

The hazecam.com website is a separate thing: it uses the Meta pixel to measure visits that arrive from ads and taps on the App Store button. Visitors from the European Union, the United Kingdom and Switzerland do not receive the pixel.

05

Your rights

Since there is no account, the usage data hazecam collects is anonymous and does not identify who you are: there is no way to look up "your data" by name or email, because that link never existed.

Even so, if you want to request access, correction, or deletion of any information related to your use of the app, under the LGPD in Brazil or the GDPR in the European Union, write to [email protected]. We will respond and do what is possible given how anonymous this data is.

06

Children

hazecam is not directed at children under 13 and was not built to collect information from children.

07

Changes to this policy

This policy may change as the app grows. When it does, we update the effective date at the top of this page. Continuing to use the app after a change means you accept the current version.
