Gleam Privacy Policy
Effective 2026-09-19
Gleam is a photo-cleanup app made by Pupik Studio. This policy is short because there isn't much to say.
What Gleam does with your photos
Gleam reads the photos and videos on your device to sort them into review queues (near-duplicates, blurry shots, screenshots, large videos) and to show them to you one at a time. All of that analysis runs on your device using Apple's on-device frameworks. Your photos are never uploaded, copied off the device, or sent to us or anyone else.
When you choose to delete photos, Gleam asks iOS to move them to the Photos app's Recently Deleted album, where iOS keeps them for up to 30 days. Gleam cannot delete anything permanently.
What Gleam stores
On your device only:
- Which photos have already been analysed and their results, so your library isn't re-scanned every time.
- Your progress: how much space you've freed, on which days you used the app, your goal, and which badges you've earned.
- A small summary of those numbers for the home-screen widget.
Nothing is stored on any server. Gleam has no servers, no accounts, and no analytics or advertising SDKs.
Purchases
Gleam+ is sold through Apple's in-app purchase system. Apple handles payment and your billing details; Gleam only receives a signed confirmation that a subscription is active. See Apple's privacy policy.
Notifications
If you allow notifications, Gleam schedules reminders locally on your device (for example, how many screenshots are waiting). No push-notification service is involved.
Data we collect
None. The App Store privacy label for Gleam is "Data Not Collected".
Children
Gleam is not directed at children under 13 and collects no personal information from anyone.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted at this address with a new effective date.
