Privacy Policy

Last updated: 30 July 2026

1. What we collect

When you use Archivios, we collect:

• Account info — email address, display name (from Google/Apple sign-in)
• Photos & videos — files you upload for backup, including photo metadata (date, location, camera model)
• Device info — device model, OS version, app version, installation ID
• Usage data — upload counts, storage used, feature interactions (no photo contents are analyzed)

2. How we use it

• Organize your photos by date and location using EXIF data
• Store and retrieve your files from cloud storage
• Send you account-related notifications
• Improve the service (aggregated, anonymized analytics only)

3. What we never do

• We never train AI or machine learning models on your photos
• We never sell, share, or license your data to third parties
• We never scan your photos for advertising purposes
• We never access your photo contents except to process uploads you initiate

4. Storage & security

Your photos are stored with 99.999999999% durability. All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Access credentials are managed server-side — your device never holds storage keys directly.

5. Data retention

Your data is retained as long as your account is active. Upon account deletion, all data (photos, metadata, account info) is permanently purged within 30 days, subject to the 180-day minimum storage policy of archival storage.

6. Your rights

You can at any time:

• Export all your data
• Delete your account and all associated data
• Request a copy of data we hold about you

We comply with GDPR and CCPA. To exercise your rights, email privacy@archivios.uk.

7. Changes

We may update this policy. Material changes will be communicated via email at least 14 days before taking effect.
