Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 21, 2026

Private Vaulteck is designed so that your private content stays private. This policy explains what the app does — and, more importantly, what it does not do — with your information.

What we collect

Nothing. Private Vaulteck has no accounts and no servers of ours. We do not collect, transmit, or store any personal data about you, and the app includes no analytics.

There is one third party involved, and only in the free version: the ads. That is described in Advertising below. Nothing from your vault is ever part of it.

Your content

The photos, videos and documents you add are encrypted with AES-GCM and stored only on your device, inside the app's private storage. The encryption key is derived from your passcode. Your files never leave your device and are never uploaded to any server or cloud.

Advertising

Private Vaulteck is free to use, and the free version is supported by ads served through Google AdMob. Premium removes them completely.

The ads never see your vault. No file, file name, thumbnail, preview, item count, or anything else derived from your content is shared with Google or with anyone else. Your files still never leave your device, and there is still no server of ours anywhere in this.

What Google does receive, as any ad network would, is information about your device and your use of the app — such as a device advertising identifier, IP address, coarse location derived from it, and how you interact with an ad. Google uses this to select, deliver and measure ads. Its handling of that data is governed by Google's Privacy Policy and by How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.

You decide how much of this happens. The app asks for your permission to track (Apple's App Tracking Transparency) before any of it starts. Declining is fine and costs you nothing in the app — you simply get non-personalised ads. In the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland you are also shown Google's consent form, and you can reopen it at any time from Settings → Ad Privacy Choices inside the app. The tracking permission can be changed at any time in iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.

If you would rather have none of it, Premium is a one-time purchase and removes the ads for good.

Face ID / Touch ID

If you enable biometric unlock, authentication is handled entirely by iOS. The app is only told whether authentication succeeded; it never receives or stores your biometric data.

Device permissions

Importing uses the system photo picker, which hands the app only the items you pick — it never gains access to your library. The app may ask for permission to save items back to Photos, and only if you choose to export them. You can change them anytime in the iOS Settings app.

Purchases

Premium is an optional one-time purchase processed by Apple through the App Store. We never see your payment details. Apple's handling of that transaction is governed by Apple's privacy policy. Premium removes the ads and the free storage limit.

Children's privacy

Private Vaulteck is not directed to children, is not listed in the App Store's Kids category, and does not knowingly collect any information from anyone, including children. Its ad inventory is not treated as child-directed.

Changes

If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted on this page with a new date above.
