ECIPhone Privacy Policy

Data handled by the app

ECIPhone records environmental observations, photos or videos, capture time, precise location and accuracy, camera direction and motion measurements, notes, comparisons and human review decisions. These records are stored locally or, for production records and explicitly marked Presentation Cases, in your private Apple iCloud database. Temporary demos are local. Apple manages private iCloud storage under its own privacy terms. The developer cannot access your private iCloud records.

No developer collection or tracking

The native app has no developer-operated data upload service, analytics, advertising or tracking. Optional Sign in with Apple stores the returned account identifier and available name locally for account status. You may Continue Locally. There is no developer account database.

Your choices

You control camera, location and motion permissions in iOS Settings. You choose whether to export or share records; selected recipients then handle the shared files under their own terms. Device backups and private iCloud copies are controlled through Apple settings. Removing local app data does not necessarily remove copies you exported or synchronized. Contact support before deleting important observations.

Website and support

Opening public support or legal pages sends a normal web request. The shared hosting provider may retain access logs including IP address, requested page and diagnostic information for website operation. These website requests are separate from field records. If you email support, we receive the message and anything you choose to attach, and use it to answer your request.
