Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 12, 2026
Welcome, traveler. This Privacy Policy explains how Sync for iPhoto (“the App”) handles your information.
Summary
- No data collection: The App does not collect, store, sell, or share personal data.
- No tracking: The App does not use analytics, advertising SDKs, or trackers.
- No servers: The App does not send your data to any external servers operated by us.
- Your photos stay yours: Photos are copied only to folders you choose, on devices you control. We never see them.
Photos Library Access
The App asks macOS for read-only access to your Photos library, and only at the moment you connect the library (for example when you click “Use Default Library”) or start a synchronization — never at launch. This access is used exclusively to copy your photos and videos to the destination folders you select. Your library is never modified, and your photos are never transmitted to us or to any third party by the App. You can revoke this access at any time in System Settings > Privacy & Security > Photos.
Information We Collect
None. We do not collect any personal information or app usage data. We do not request account registration, and we do not maintain user profiles.
How the App Uses Your Data
All processing happens locally on your Mac. Photos and videos are read from your library and written to the destination folders you choose. Optional log files are stored locally on your Mac only.
Third-Party Services
The App does not integrate third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking services.
Network Access
The App does not transmit your personal data to us. Network access is used only for standard Apple system services, governed by Apple’s own privacy policy and your device settings:
- If your library uses iCloud Photos with “Optimize Mac Storage”, macOS downloads originals from iCloud as they are copied.
- If you use the Country or City naming options or filters, photo location coordinates are converted to place names by Apple’s geocoding service. We never receive this data.
Children’s Privacy
The App does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone, including children.
Data Retention
Because we do not collect data, we do not retain personal data.
Your Choices
You can revoke the App’s Photos access at any time in System Settings, and you can stop using the App at any time by uninstalling it. Files previously copied to your destination folders remain under your control.
Changes to This Policy
If we change the App to collect data in the future, we will update this Privacy Policy before doing so and provide any additional notices required by law.
