Privacy Policy

Short version

Pink Mesh lets you pick 5 to 20 photos of an object from your own Photos library and uses Apple's RealityFoundation framework (PhotogrammetrySession) on-device to reconstruct a 3D model as a USDZ file you can preview in AR through Quick Look. The USDZ file, a 512-pixel cover thumbnail, the source-photo count, and the note you typed all stay on your device. There are no accounts, no analytics, and no third-party SDKs that contact a server. The only network calls the app makes are to Apple's StoreKit when you choose to subscribe or unlock the Lifetime tier.

Who we are

Pink Mesh is published by Danielius Studio LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company at 30 N Gould St, Suite #5280, Sheridan, WY 82801, USA (“we”, “us”).

Data we do NOT collect

• No account, no email, no password — the app has no signup.
• No analytics, no telemetry, no event tracking.
• No advertising identifiers (no IDFA, no fingerprinting).
• No usage data sent off the device.
• No microphone, no camera. Pink Mesh never opens the camera or records audio; it only reads photos you explicitly pick.
• No location, no contacts, no calendar.
• No HealthKit, no Health data.

Photos permission

Pink Mesh requests Photos access (the NSPhotoLibraryUsageDescription permission) so that the system picker can show you photos to choose from. The permission is used only to read the 5 to 20 photos you explicitly pick through Apple's PhotosPicker for each mesh.

Pink Mesh does NOT scan your broader library, does NOT build an index of your photos, does NOT extract face data, and does NOT read EXIF or location metadata beyond what RealityFoundation uses internally to align the source frames.

What stays on your device

• Your mesh entries (the reconstructed USDZ 3D model file, a 512-pixel cover thumbnail rendered from the model, the number of source photos used, and the note you typed, plus the created-at timestamp). Stored in on-device SwiftData with the USDZ and thumbnail bytes held as external storage.
• The date the app was first launched (used to time the three-mesh free window). Stored in UserDefaults.
• Whether the paywall has been acknowledged.

The original source photos continue to live in your Photos library. Pink Mesh keeps only the USDZ file produced from them plus the cover thumbnail. Pink Mesh never modifies, deletes, or writes back to the originals.

All of the above lives on your device and never leaves it. Uninstalling the app deletes everything Pink Mesh has stored.

On-device photogrammetry (RealityFoundation)

3D reconstruction is performed by Apple's RealityFoundation framework through the public PhotogrammetrySession API. The session ingests your picked photos and produces a USDZ model entirely on your iPhone's GPU and Neural Engine. No image data, intermediate point cloud, or finished model is transmitted off the device.

On-device photogrammetry requires an A12 Bionic chip or later (iPhone XS and newer). On devices that do not meet the hardware requirement, mesh generation is unavailable; existing meshes you have already produced remain previewable.

AR preview is provided by iOS Quick Look. No face detection, person recognition, or biometric analysis is performed.

In-app purchases

If you choose to subscribe (Monthly, Annual) or buy the Lifetime unlock, that transaction is handled by Apple's StoreKit. Apple processes the payment and shares only the receipt with the app so we can verify your entitlement. We never see your card number, billing address, or any personal information beyond Apple's opaque transaction identifier.

Subscription receipts are stored on-device by iOS and used to validate your entitlement when you re-open the app. They are not sent to any server we operate.

Family Sharing

Pink Mesh Pro purchases (Monthly, Annual, Lifetime) are Family-Shareable through Apple's standard Family Sharing mechanism. Apple handles eligibility checks; we do not see who is in your family group.

Children

Pink Mesh is rated 4+ in the App Store. Because the app collects no data at all, it complies with COPPA and similar children's-privacy regulations by design.

Your rights

Because Pink Mesh does not collect data, there is nothing for us to export, correct, or delete on your behalf. To revoke Photos permission, use iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Photos. To remove all on-device state, delete the app.

Changes

If we ever introduce a feature that involves any data leaving the device (for example, cloud sync or sharing), this page will be updated and the “Last updated” date at the top will change. For v1.0, no such feature exists.
