Overview
Camera Backup is designed as a personal iOS application for
backing up media from drones, iPhones, and action cameras to
Google Photos so you can free space on devices and cards with
confidence. We do not collect personal user profiles, host your
media, or build a Boive cloud library around your footage.
Data stored on your iPhone
Camera Backup stores app settings, transfer state, and local
verification data on your iPhone. When you share a photo or video
into Camera Backup, the app stages a temporary copy in its local
transfer container so background uploads can continue after the
share sheet closes. Once a backup is verified complete (or if you
cancel or remove the transfer), Camera Backup automatically
deletes its temporary staged copy. Your original media in the
source app is never deleted or mutated automatically. Local data
remains on your device unless you back up or sync your iPhone
using services you choose.
Google Photos uploads
When you back up media, video bytes upload from your iPhone
directly to Google Photos using Google’s resumable-upload API.
Boive infrastructure is not used as a media relay or media store.
Storage and retention of uploaded originals are governed by your
Google account and Google’s policies.
Control-plane data
The optional web control plane may store account linkage,
transfer checkpoints, and verification state needed to resume and
confirm backups. This information is used only to operate the
backup workflow. OAuth tokens and resumable-session URIs are
treated as secrets and are redacted from application logs.
Subscriptions
When purchases or subscriptions are offered, they are processed
by Apple. Camera Backup receives the subscription and transaction
information needed to determine whether access is active. We do
not receive or store your payment-card details. Public store
pricing and distribution details will be published when the product
is available.
Sharing and retention
We do not sell your personal information. Information used by the
control plane is retained only as needed to provide and protect
the backup workflow, comply with legal obligations, and resolve
support or security issues.
Changes and contact
We may update this policy when Camera Backup or its supporting
services change. The effective date above identifies the latest
version. For privacy questions or requests, visit
the Camera Backup support page or email support@boive.se.
