Last Updated: March 28, 2026

Introduction

Loyalty Wallet (“we”, “our”, or “the app”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle your information when you use our mobile application.

Our Privacy Philosophy

We believe your data belongs to you. Loyalty Wallet is designed with privacy as a core principle. We do not collect, transmit, or store any of your personal information on external servers.

Information We DO NOT Collect

We want to be crystal clear about what we DON’T do:

❌ We do NOT collect your personal information
❌ We do NOT track your location
❌ We do NOT access your contacts
❌ We do NOT share data with third parties
❌ We do NOT use analytics or tracking tools
❌ We do NOT require account registration
❌ We do NOT sync your data to the cloud
❌ We do NOT sell your information to anyone

How Your Data is Stored

Local Storage Only

All your loyalty card information is stored exclusively on your device using local storage:

Card names and details - Stored locally on your device
Barcode images - Stored locally on your device
Card photos - Stored locally on your device
Notes and custom fields - Stored locally on your device

Your data never leaves your device unless you explicitly choose to export it.

Permissions We Request

Camera Access

Why we need it: To scan barcodes and QR codes from your physical loyalty cards
When we use it: Only when you tap the “Scan” button to add a new card
What we do with it: The camera captures the barcode, which is processed locally on your device and then immediately discarded. We do not save camera images.

Photo Library Access

Why we need it: To allow you to attach photos of your loyalty cards for easy identification
When we use it: Only when you choose to add a photo to a card
What we do with it: Selected photos are copied to the app’s local storage. We do not access or scan your entire photo library.

Screen Brightness Control

Why we need it: To temporarily increase screen brightness when displaying barcodes for scanning at checkout
When we use it: Only when viewing a card’s barcode
What we do with it: We temporarily adjust brightness to ensure barcodes scan properly, then restore your original brightness setting.

Data Export and Backup

User-Controlled Export

You have complete control over your data:

You can export all your cards to a backup file at any time
The backup file is stored on your device or in your chosen location (iCloud Drive, Files app, etc.)
You control where this file goes and who has access to it
We do not have access to your backup files

If you choose to share a card using the share function:

The card information is shared only with the app or service you select
We do not track or monitor what you share
Sharing is entirely optional and user-initiated

Third-Party Services

Advertising

Loyalty Wallet displays advertisements to support free access to the app. These ads are provided by Yandex Mobile Ads:

What they collect: Yandex Mobile Ads may collect device information and ad interaction data according to their privacy policy
Your control: Ad personalization is handled by Yandex Mobile Ads. You can control ad preferences through your device settings (iOS: Settings > Privacy > Advertising)
Our role: We do not have access to any data collected by the advertising network

Data Security

How We Protect Your Data

All data is stored locally using iOS secure storage mechanisms
Data is protected by your device’s security features (passcode, Face ID, Touch ID)
No data transmission to external servers means no risk of data breaches from our side
You are responsible for securing your device and backup files

If You Lose Your Device

Since all data is stored locally:

If you lose your device, your card data is protected by your device’s lock screen
If you have created a backup file, you can restore your cards on a new device
We cannot help you recover data if you lose both your device and backup file, as we do not have access to your information

Your Rights and Control

You have complete control over your data:

Right to Access

You can view all your stored cards at any time within the app

Right to Delete

You can delete individual cards or all cards at any time
Deleting the app removes all locally stored data

The backup file is in a standard format that you control

Right to Opt-Out

You can disable camera access in iOS Settings if you don’t want to use the scanning feature
