Exif Metadata Toolbar - Privacy Policy

Privacy Policy for Exif Metadata Editor: Tool Bar

Built the Exif Metadata Editor: Tool Bar as a premium macOS application. This SERVICE is provided by us for a fee and is intended for professional use as delivered.

This page informs users regarding our policies with the collection, use, and disclosure of Personal Information for anyone who purchases and uses our Service.

If you choose to use our Service, then you agree to the collection and use of information in relation to this policy. Any information processed is used solely for providing and improving the Service. We will not use or share your information with anyone except as described in this Privacy Policy.

The terms used in this Privacy Policy have the same meanings as in our Terms and Conditions, which are accessible within Exif Metadata Editor: Tool Bar unless otherwise defined in this Privacy Policy.

Information Collection and Use

Our Service processes EXIF metadata and image data locally on your macOS device. All photo analysis, metadata viewing, editing, and removal operations occur entirely on your Mac. We do not collect, transmit, or store any of your photos, metadata, or personal information on external servers.

The app operates completely offline and does not require internet connectivity for core functionality. Your images and their associated metadata remain private and secure on your device at all times.

Data Processing

Exif Metadata Editor: Tool Bar processes the following data types locally on your device:

Image files and their embedded EXIF metadata

GPS location data within photos

Camera settings and technical photography information

User preferences and application settings

All processing happens within the secure macOS environment. No data leaves your device during normal operation.

Log Data

In case of application errors, our Service may generate local log files to help diagnose technical issues. These logs contain only technical information about app performance and do not include personal data, photos, or metadata content. Log data remains stored locally on your device and is not transmitted to external services.

Third-Party Services

This application does not integrate with third-party services that collect user data. All functionality operates independently within the macOS environment without external dependencies that could compromise your privacy.

Security

We prioritize your privacy by design. Since all data processing occurs locally on your Mac, your photos and metadata benefit from macOS's built-in security features including:

Sandboxed application environment

Encrypted local storage

System-level privacy protections

No network transmission of sensitive data

Data Retention

The application does not retain copies of your photos or metadata. When you process images through our Service, the original files remain unchanged unless you explicitly choose to save modifications. Temporary processing data is immediately cleared from memory after operations complete.

Children's Privacy

Our Service does not specifically target users under 13 years of age. Since we do not collect personal information, age verification is not required. Parents should supervise children's use of photo editing applications as appropriate.

Updates to Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. Users will be notified of significant changes through application updates. Continued use of the Service after policy updates constitutes acceptance of revised terms.

Your Rights

Since we do not collect or store personal data, traditional data access or deletion requests are not applicable. You maintain complete control over your photos and metadata at all times through the application interface.
