Privacy Policy

Recall Privacy Policy

Effective date: April 23, 2026. This policy describes how Recall handles account data, photo metadata, gameplay data, device information, and push notifications.

What Recall Does

Recall is a daily photo-memory game. It uses metadata from your camera roll, such as when a photo was taken and where it was taken, to create daily memory challenges. Recall is designed so your actual photo files stay on your device.

This Privacy Policy explains what information Recall collects, how it is used, and the choices you have when using the app and website.

Information We Collect

Account information. When you sign in with Apple or Google, Recall may receive information such as your name, email address, profile image, sign-in provider, and provider account identifier.

Profile and app settings. Recall stores information such as your time zone and privacy preferences, including whether your account is private and excluded from public leaderboard views.

Photo metadata. Recall may collect limited camera roll metadata you choose to sync, including local asset identifiers, timestamps, latitude and longitude, eligibility flags, and location labels associated with the asset. Recall does not need the underlying image file to run the core game experience.

Gameplay information. Recall stores daily challenges, challenge items, guesses, scores, streaks, challenge history, and related result data so the product can function and show your progress over time.

Location-derived information. Recall may reverse geocode coordinates into readable place data such as name, city, region, state, country, and place identifiers, and may cache that information in the database to reduce repeat lookups.

Device and notification information. If you enable push notifications, Recall stores device UUIDs, device names, platform, push tokens, app version, app build number, and device activity timestamps.

Session and security information. Recall stores session and authentication token data needed to keep you signed in and help secure your account.

How We Use Information

Recall uses your information to authenticate you, personalize the app, generate daily challenges, score guesses, track streaks, display challenge history, power reminders, and operate the service.

We also use information to support app reliability, prevent abuse, debug issues, measure basic product activity, and improve gameplay and product decisions.

If push notifications are enabled, Recall may use your device token and time zone to send reminders when you have not completed a daily challenge.

Leaderboard and Privacy Controls

Recall includes a leaderboard experience for users who choose to participate. If your account is marked private, Recall is designed to exclude your account from public leaderboard ranking.

Even when an account is private, Recall may still store your gameplay and profile information internally so the app can function for you.

Third-Party Services

Recall relies on third-party services to operate parts of the product. These may include Apple or Google for sign-in, Google Maps services for reverse geocoding, and Firebase Cloud Messaging for push notifications.

Those providers may process information according to their own privacy terms and policies. Recall only intends to use those services to support product functionality.

How We Share Information

Recall does not sell your personal information.

Recall may share information with service providers and infrastructure partners that help run authentication, hosting, database storage, geocoding, notifications, analytics, customer support, or other operational functions.

Recall may also disclose information if reasonably necessary to comply with law, enforce terms, protect users, or respond to valid legal requests.

Data Retention

Recall retains information for as long as it is reasonably needed to operate the product, maintain your account, provide challenge history and streaks, send enabled notifications, resolve disputes, and meet legal or security obligations.

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and whether you continue using the service.

Your Choices

You can control certain information through the app, including privacy settings and whether a device is registered for push notifications.

You can also stop using the service, remove devices, or contact Recall about account or data questions. Disabling permissions on your device may limit parts of the product experience.

Children’s Privacy

Recall is not intended for children under 13, and it is not knowingly designed to collect personal information directly from children under 13.

Changes to This Policy

Recall may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When that happens, the updated version will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
