Privacy Policy

Clear words about your data.

Vertical helps you review and remove photos on your device. We keep data use limited to what is needed to run the app, support purchases, and respond if you contact us.

What the app can access

Vertical requests access to your photo library so you can review media, stage items for deletion, restore items from Safety Net, and save favorites.

If you choose to buy Vertical Pro, Apple handles billing and subscription management.

What stays on your device

Your photos and videos stay on your device. Vertical does not upload your camera roll for review, scanning, or deletion decisions.

App preferences, Safety Net state, favorites, and progress are stored locally so the app can remember your setup.

Purchases

When you buy or restore Vertical Pro, the transaction is handled through Apple.

We do not receive your full payment card details. Billing, renewals, cancellations, and refunds are managed through Apple.

Data sharing

Vertical does not sell your personal data.

If you contact support, we may use the information you send us to troubleshoot your issue and reply to you.

Retention and deletion

On-device app data remains until you remove the app or clear in-app data.

Media staged in Safety Net remains on your device until you restore it, permanently delete it, or let an optional auto-clean rule remove expired items.
