Privacy Policy

1. Overview & Local-First Architecture

This Privacy Policy explains how Wardro ("we," "our," or "the app"), developed by independent developer Cavidan Abdullayev, handles your information across our mobile applications on the Google Play Store (Android) and Apple App Store (iOS).

We believe your wardrobe is personal. Wardro is architected so that your personal data, cataloged items, and outfits belong entirely to you and remain stored locally on your device.

2. Device Permissions & Data Kept on Your Device

To deliver its core features, Wardro requests access to specific device hardware features and storage. We access these only with your explicit permission:

• Camera Access (android.permission.CAMERA / iOS Camera Usage): Used strictly when you take photos of your clothing items directly within the app. Images captured are written to your local device storage.
• Photo Library & Media Storage (READ_MEDIA_IMAGES / Android Photo Picker / iOS Photos): Used exclusively to allow you to select existing pictures of garments from your device photo library to import into your wardrobe.

What stays locally on your device: All of your imported clothing photos, background-removed cutouts, custom tags, color palettes, outfit collages, collections, calendar entries, pairings, and user preferences are saved strictly in your device's local application database. We cannot see them, we do not host them, and we do not back them up to any cloud server.

3. Background Removal (100% On-Device Processing)

When you isolate a clothing item from its background, the cutout is generated by an on-device machine learning model running directly on your phone's processor.

No photos are uploaded to any server for background removal. This process operates entirely on-device and works completely offline without requiring an active internet connection.

4. AI Garment Recognition & Third-Party Processing

When adding a clothing item, Wardro offers an optional AI-assisted smart recognition feature to suggest garment types (e.g., blazer, denim jeans), colors, categories, and tags.

How image data is processed:

• Ephemeral Transmission: If you use this feature, Wardro sends only that single clothing photo over an encrypted HTTPS (TLS) connection to our backend processing endpoint powered by an AI service provider.
• Zero Retention: The image is held in-memory solely for the few seconds required to generate the classification response. It is never permanently stored on any server and is deleted immediately after the suggestions are returned.
• No User Identification: The image payload is not linked to your name, device identifier, advertising ID, or any personal user profile.
• No AI Model Training: Your clothing photos are never used to train or fine-tune public or private machine learning models.
• No Advertising or Sale: We never sell, rent, monetize, or share your images with third-party advertisers or data brokers.
• User Control: AI recognition is completely optional. You can always input or edit garment categories and tags manually without triggering any image transmission.

5. Information We Do NOT Collect

Wardro does not collect, record, or track:

• Personal identity information (no names, email addresses, phone numbers, or passwords).
• Location data (no precise or approximate GPS location).
• Contacts, calendars, or social network accounts.
• Advertising identifiers (no Google Advertising ID / AAID, no Apple IDFA).
• Cross-app tracking or third-party advertising SDKs.

6. In-App Purchases & Subscriptions

Wardro offers an optional premium upgrade, Wardro Pro, which unlocks unlimited clothing items and outfits. All purchases and recurring subscriptions are processed directly through the official store billing platforms:

• On Android devices: Billed and managed through Google Play Billing (governed by Google's Terms of Service and Privacy Policy).
• On iOS devices: Billed and managed through Apple In-App Purchases (governed by Apple's Terms of Service and Privacy Policy).

We never collect, see, or store your payment card numbers, billing addresses, or banking details. Subscription validation occurs securely on your device through official platform APIs. You can modify or cancel your subscription at any time in your Google Play or Apple ID account settings.

7. Platform Integrity & Abuse Prevention

To protect our AI garment recognition API against automated abuse, denial of service, and scraping, the app may submit a cryptographically signed platform attestation token (such as Google Play Integrity API on Android or Apple App Attest / DeviceCheck on iOS).

This token verifies that the incoming request originates from an authentic, unmodified copy of Wardro downloaded from an official app store. It attests the software integrity of the app, does not identify you as an individual, and cannot track you across apps or services.

8. Children's Privacy (COPPA / GDPR-K Compliance)

Wardro is a general-utility wardrobe application designed for general audiences and is not directed at children under the age of 13 (or under 16 in the European Economic Area).

We do not knowingly collect, solicit, or maintain personal information from children. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has transmitted any information through our service, please contact us at support@wardro.site, and we will take immediate steps to remove any such data.

9. Data Retention, Deletion & User Control (Google Play Compliance)

In full compliance with Google Play User Data and Data Deletion policies and Apple App Store Review Guidelines, we provide clear procedures regarding how your data is retained and deleted:

• No Account Creation: Wardro does not require or offer user account registration. As such, no online account, cloud-stored user profile, or remote credentials exist to delete.
• In-App Deletion: You have full control over your wardrobe data. You can delete any individual item, outfit, tag, or photo at any time directly within the app. Deletion is instantaneous and permanent from your local device storage.
• Complete Data Erasure: You can completely erase all data stored by Wardro at any time by:
  1. Clearing app data via device settings: on Android, go to Settings > Apps > Wardro > Storage & cache > Clear Storage.
  2. Uninstalling the Wardro application from your device, which automatically purges all locally stored wardrobe databases, cutouts, and images.
• Server-Side Data Deletion: Because Wardro does not retain your photos or wardrobe information on remote servers, there is no lingering server copy to delete.
• Data Deletion Requests & Inquiries: If you have any questions regarding your data or wish to submit a data inquiry, you may contact us at support@wardro.site.

10. Data Security & Encryption in Transit

We are dedicated to safeguarding any data transmitted by the application:

• Encryption in Transit: Any network communication between Wardro and external endpoints (such as transient image transmission for AI garment classification) is enforced via Transport Layer Security (HTTPS / TLS 1.2+) encryption.
• Device-Level Security: Your local wardrobe data is isolated within the operating system's application sandbox on both Android and iOS, protected by hardware-level device encryption (Android File-Based Encryption and iOS Data Protection).

11. Your Rights (GDPR & CCPA / CPRA)

Under applicable data protection laws (including the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA)), users have rights regarding their personal data, including the right to access, rectify, restrict, or delete personal information.

Because Wardro operates without user accounts and stores all wardrobe content locally on your device, you exercise complete, direct control over your data directly on your phone. If you have any questions or require assistance exercising your statutory privacy rights, please reach out to support@wardro.site.

12. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect enhancements to the app, platform operating system requirements, or relevant legal obligations. When updates are published, we will revise the "Last Updated" date at the top of this document. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
