Privacy Policy — Snap It Regrow

Provider: Ivan DeBanks · Last updated: April 24, 2026

This policy mirrors the in-app privacy policy from the app's in-app Privacy Policy screen.

Local-First — Your Data Lives on Your Device

Snap it: Regrow stores all your photos, analysis results, and progress data locally on your device. When you use AI analysis, your photo is temporarily sent to our secure AI service for processing and immediately discarded afterward. No photos are ever permanently stored on any server.

By using Snap it: Regrow, you consent to the practices described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with this Privacy Policy, please do not use the App.

1. Information We Collect

1.1 Photos Stored Locally on Your Device

What We Store:

• Photographs of your hair and scalp that you take or select within the App
• Photo metadata (date taken, file size)
• AI-generated analysis results for each photo

Where It's Stored:

• Locally on your device in the App's secure storage container
• Photos may be optionally backed up via iCloud if enabled on your device
• We do NOT permanently store your photos on any server
• If you delete the App, all locally stored photos are permanently deleted

1.2 Analysis Data Stored Locally

What We Store:

• Hair health scores (overall score, scalp health, density, thickness)
• AI-detected patterns (balding patterns, thinning levels, Norwood stage)
• Personalized recommendations and action plans
• Progress tracking data and trends
• Timestamps of when each photo was analyzed

All analysis results are stored locally on your device only.

1.3 How AI Analysis Works

When you analyze a photo, it is temporarily sent to our secure AI service for processing. The AI generates your hair health scores and recommendations, which are returned to your device and stored locally. Your photo is not permanently stored on any server and is discarded after processing.

• Photos are temporarily transmitted via encrypted connection for AI analysis
• No personal identifying information is attached to photos during analysis
• Analysis results are returned to your device and stored locally
• Photos are not permanently retained on any server after processing

1.4 Authentication Information

If you sign in with Apple:

9. AI and Machine Learning

9.1 How AI Analysis Works

When you analyze a photo:

• You tap Analyze in the app
• Your photo is temporarily sent to our secure AI service via encrypted connection
• Hair density, scalp health, and patterns are assessed by the AI
• Results (scores, recommendations) are returned and saved locally on your device
• Your photo is not permanently stored on any server after processing

9.2 AI Model Updates

AI models are continuously improved. No photos or personal data are used to train or improve models — model improvements are developed independently.

9.3 AI Limitations

Our AI analysis is NOT a medical diagnosis. Results are estimates and may contain errors. AI is for informational purposes only. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional for medical concerns about hair loss or scalp health.

10. Cookies and Tracking

As a mobile app, we don't use traditional cookies. We use:

• Local Storage: To store photos and data on your device
• Device Identifiers: IDFA (if you enable tracking) for analytics
• App Preferences: To remember your settings

You can disable IDFA tracking in iOS Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking.

11. Data Breach Notification

Because all photos and analysis results are stored locally on your device, the risk of a data breach involving your stored data is minimal. Photos are only temporarily transmitted for AI analysis and are not permanently retained on any server.

In the unlikely event that our analytics providers experience a breach, we will notify affected users via in-app alert. Note that analytics data is anonymized and contains no photos or personal identifiers.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The updated "Last Updated" date will be shown at the top, and material changes will be announced via in-app notification. Continued use of the App after changes means you accept the updated policy.
