Filterly

Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Filterly handles information in the Android photo filter app.

Effective date: May 22, 2026

1. Scope

Filterly is an Android photo editing app. You can select images from your device, receive images through Android sharing, preview filters, export edited images, and optionally share exported results through destinations you choose.

2. Data handled by the app

Filterly may handle the following data to provide app features:

  • Photos or image files that you choose to open, edit, export, or share.
  • Temporary previews, thumbnails, cache files, and app settings stored on your device.
  • Subscription and purchase status handled through Google Play Billing.
  • Advertising, consent, device, and diagnostic data processed by Google Mobile Ads and Google's User Messaging Platform where ads or consent features are available.

3. How data is used

Selected photos are used to show previews, apply filters and adjustments, create exports, and prepare share actions that you request. App settings and local cache files support normal app operation. Billing data is used to show subscription options, check entitlement status, and manage purchases. Advertising and consent data is used to show ads, support ad privacy choices, measure ad performance, prevent abuse, and comply with applicable consent requirements.

4. Collection and sharing

Filterly does not require an in-app account for photo editing, and we do not sell personal information. Normal photo editing is designed to run on your device. Photos are shared outside the app only when you choose an Android share action or save/export a file to device storage.

Filterly uses Google services, including Google Mobile Ads, Google's User Messaging Platform, and Google Play Billing. These services may receive data needed to provide ads, consent flows, fraud prevention, diagnostics, subscriptions, and payment processing. Google handles that data under Google's policies.

5. Android permissions

Filterly may request photo or media access permissions so you can import images into the editor. On supported Android versions, you may grant access to selected photos instead of the full media library. Older Android versions may use the legacy storage permission. Filterly also uses the Google Play Billing permission for subscriptions. You can review or change app permissions in Android Settings.

6. Retention

Photos selected for editing remain on your device unless you export or share them. Exported images remain wherever you save them until you delete them. Temporary previews, cache files, and app settings remain in app-controlled storage until Android removes them, you clear app storage, or you uninstall Filterly. Google Play purchase records and Google advertising records are retained by Google according to Google's own retention practices.

7. Choices, consent, and deletion

You can deny or revoke photo permissions in Android Settings, clear Filterly app storage, delete exported images from your device, uninstall the app, and manage subscriptions in Google Play. Where required, Filterly shows Google consent or ad privacy options through Google's User Messaging Platform. Filterly does not create user accounts, so there is no in-app account deletion step.

8. Security

Filterly uses Android platform controls such as app sandboxing, runtime permissions, scoped storage behavior, and Google Play Billing. No app or storage method can be guaranteed completely secure, but we design the app to limit photo access to user-selected workflows.

9. Children

Filterly is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child provided personal information through the app, contact us using the mechanism below.

10. Changes

We may update this Privacy Policy when app features, service providers, or legal requirements change. The effective date above shows when the latest version took effect.

11. Contact
