Privacy Policy

Last updated: 15 October 2026

Quilta has no accounts. Your photos, projects and exports stay on your device, and we never receive them. This policy covers the Quilta app and the quilta.app website.

In short

• Your photos never leave your device. The app has no upload feature.
• The app sends crash reports and usage statistics. Both are on by default, and you can turn them off in Settings, then Privacy.
• Apple and Google take your payments. We never see your card.
• We show no ads, and we do not sell your data or share it for advertising.

Who we are

Quilta is responsible for the information described here. For any question or request, write to support@quilta.app. A person reads every message.

Your photos and projects

You choose photos with your device's photo picker, or share them to Quilta from another app. Quilta keeps copies in its own storage on your device so it can edit them. It never looks at the rest of your photo library.

Your projects are saved on your device and nowhere else. Deleting a project removes it, and deleting the app removes everything.

Background removal and subject detection run on your device. On iOS they use Apple's Vision framework. On Android they use Google's ML Kit, which may download its model through Google Play services and sends Google diagnostics about the feature, such as device details, performance and error codes. It never sends the photo or what was found in it.

When you export, you decide where the image goes. On iOS, Save to Photos can add images to your library but cannot browse it. If you share an image to another app, that app's privacy policy applies.

What the app sends

The app goes online only for the things below, and none of them include your photos, text or projects.

• Templates and settings. The app downloads templates, previews, filters and feature settings from our server, including whether a newer version is available. These requests include the app version, your platform and a random installation ID. The ID is created on first launch, is not based on your device, and changes if you reinstall. We use it to apply request limits and to roll out new templates gradually. Our server sees your IP address to apply those limits, but does not save it in its statistics.
• Fonts. The first time you use a caption font, the app downloads it from Google Fonts, which sees your IP address and basic device details.
• Crash reports, through Firebase Crashlytics, run by Google. When the app fails, it sends the error, where in the code it happened, your device model, your operating system version and recent app log lines. Those lines can include file paths inside Quilta's own storage, never names from your photo library.
• Usage statistics, through Firebase Analytics (part of Google Analytics) and PostHog. The app reports which features are used, from a fixed list of events such as a template opened or an export finished, with simple values such as the preset or the number of slides. It also reports whether Pro is active, which plan you have, and the price and currency of a purchase. Both services also record app opens, installs, updates, session length, device model, operating system, language and app version, and estimate your country and city from your IP address. Google does not store the IP address. PostHog may. Each service creates its own random ID, and Firebase also reads your Android advertising ID or, on iOS, the identifier Apple gives all apps from one developer. PostHog's screen recording is switched off.
• Purchases, through RevenueCat. RevenueCat receives your receipt from Apple or Google, linked to a random ID it creates, and tells the app whether Pro is active.

Nothing else leaves the app. We never receive your name, email address, precise location, contacts or project names.

Your choices

Settings, then Privacy, has two switches: Crash reports and Usage analytics. Both are on by default and take effect immediately. Turning usage analytics off also tells PostHog to discard its ID.

You can also remove Quilta's photo access in your device settings, or delete the app to remove everything it stored.

Why we use it

• Crash reports and usage statistics help us fix problems and improve the app. We rely on our legitimate interest in doing that, and you can object at any time with the switches above.
• Purchase information is needed to give you the Pro features you paid for.
• Template, settings and font requests are needed for the app to work.

Advertising

Quilta shows no ads and contains no ad network. On iOS the app never asks for tracking permission, so it never receives Apple's advertising identifier. We do not sell your personal information or share it for cross context behavioural advertising.

The website

quilta.app has no analytics, no cookies and no third party content. Our hosting provider sees your IP address, browser type and the page you asked for, and uses them only to deliver the page.

Where data is kept, and for how long

Google and RevenueCat process data mainly in the United States. PostHog stores Quilta's statistics in the European Union. Where the law requires a safeguard for these transfers, we rely on the standard contractual clauses these companies provide.

• Your projects: on your device, until you delete them
• Crash reports: 90 days
• Google Analytics: 2 months
• PostHog: 1 year
• Our server's request statistics: about 3 months
• Purchase records: for as long as Quilta uses RevenueCat, so you can restore purchases

Each company explains its own handling:

• Google: https://policies.google.com/privacy
• Firebase, for crash reports and analytics: https://firebase.google.com/support/privacy
• Google ML Kit: https://developers.google.com/ml-kit/terms
• PostHog: https://posthog.com/privacy
• RevenueCat: https://www.revenuecat.com/privacy

Your rights

Depending on where you live, laws such as the GDPR, the UK GDPR and the CCPA give you the right to access, correct and delete your data, to object to how it is used, and to complain to your data protection authority.

Without an account, we cannot look you up by name. Write to support@quilta.app with your device and roughly when you used the app, and we will find and delete what relates to your installation.

Children

Quilta is rated 4+ on the App Store. That rating describes the content, not the audience. Quilta is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their information. If a child has used the app, turn off both switches in Settings, then Privacy, and write to us.

Changes

When this policy changes, the date at the top changes too. Important changes will be mentioned in the app's release notes.
