Broken Cam privacy policy

About this policy

This policy covers Broken Cam for iPhone, provided by broken and coastal llc. It describes the app’s camera, storage, purchase and support features. Other Broken & Coastal tools have their own privacy information.

Your camera stays on your device

Broken Cam processes camera frames and applies effects on your iPhone. The app does not send your photos, videos or microphone recordings to a developer-operated server.

The app has no app-account system, advertising, analytics SDKs or tracking. We do not sell your personal information or use your captures for advertising or AI training.

Permissions you control

• Camera: powers the live preview and photo/video capture.
• Microphone: records sound with video. Photos do not require microphone access.
• Photos: add-only permission lets the app save processed captures. Broken Cam does not browse your photo library.

You can change these permissions in iPhone Settings. Settings and the app’s Library remain accessible if capture permissions are off.

Captures, settings and backups

Processed captures are stored in the app’s local Library and, with permission, added to Photos. No clean original is saved alongside them. Your device backup or iCloud settings may copy these files through Apple’s services.

Presets, effect choices, onboarding progress and feedback preferences are stored locally. The app also stores a latest-seen date to help prevent an expired trial from reopening if the device clock is moved backward.

Purchases through Apple

Apple handles the free trial, permanent unlock, payments and offer-code redemption through the App Store. Broken Cam checks verified transaction records on your device to determine access, including the original trial date and purchase or revocation status.

We do not receive your payment-card details. Apple processes purchase information under its own privacy policy.

Sharing and deletion

Sharing uses the iOS share sheet. Only the captures and destination you choose are shared; the receiving service handles them under its own terms.

You can delete captures in the Library. This does not delete copies in Photos, backups or other destinations. Removing Broken Cam removes its local library and preferences. Save any captures you want to keep before uninstalling.

When you contact us

If you email support, we receive your email address and the information or attachments you choose to send. We use them to answer your request and troubleshoot issues. Our email provider processes those messages to deliver and store them.

We retain support correspondence as needed to resolve requests and meet applicable obligations. To ask about, correct or request deletion of support information, email studio@brokenandcoastal.com. We cannot retrieve captures stored only on your phone.
