Privacy
Effective 11 November 2026
Eclat Camera and Eclat Editor (together “Eclat”) are made by Orichalque SAS, 26 rue Bosquet, 75007 Paris, France, which is responsible for this policy. Questions: contact@eclat.camera.
What Eclat does with your data
Your photos are developed and edited on your iPhone or iPad. Eclat has no account, no servers of its own, no advertising and no analytics. Eclat sends nothing about you or your photos to us. Only four things go over the internet:
- your styles and your Eclat Plus status, which sync between your devices through your own iCloud account (Apple);
- purchases, handled by Apple;
- in Eclat Editor, the face models for People, downloaded once from Hugging Face when you turn People on. Nothing is sent with that download but the request itself.
- in Eclat Editor, the map tiles, loaded from Apple Maps when you open the map. The places of your photos are shown on Apple’s map, which is subject to Apple’s privacy policy.
Permissions
- Camera (Eclat Camera), to take photos.
- Photos: Eclat Camera saves each photo with its original, its style and its recipe, and adds it to the Eclat Camera album. Eclat Editor shows the photos in your library, and saves each edit into Photos as a reversible edit. If you give Eclat Editor access to only some photos, it sees only those.
- Location (Eclat Camera), only if you turn Location on in its settings, to write where a photo was taken into it. It is off by default. Eclat Editor does not ask for your location; its map shows the places already stored in your photos.
- Notifications (Eclat Camera), to remind you to open Eclat when photos taken from the Lock Screen are waiting to be added to Photos. These notifications are created on your iPhone.
What stays on your devices
- Your settings.
- Photos waiting to be developed: each photo is kept in Eclat’s own storage until it is in your library, so none is lost if the app closes. Photos taken from the Lock Screen wait there until you open Eclat.
- Your photos, in your Photos library, until you delete them.
- In Eclat Editor, the list of versions of each photo you edited, so you can go back to any of them.
- In Eclat Editor, if you turn People on: the faces found in your photos, their face embeddings (numbers that describe a face) and the names you give. They are computed on your device, never leave it and are not synced. Turning People off stops the analysis; deleting Eclat Editor deletes them.
Deleting an Eclat app deletes its settings and its data on that device. Your photos and their edits stay in Photos, where you can revert them.
Purchases
Eclat Plus (subscriptions and the lifetime purchase) and tips are handled by Apple. Eclat never sees your payment details; it only learns which purchase is active. To share Eclat Plus between Eclat Camera and Eclat Editor, each app stores that status and the date your free week started in your iCloud account and in storage shared by the two apps on your device.
Your rights
Under the GDPR and similar laws you can ask to access, correct or delete personal data. Eclat holds none on any server, but you can write to contact@eclat.camera with any question, and you can complain to the CNIL (cnil.fr).
Children
Eclat is not aimed at children below the age of digital consent where they live.
Changes
