1. Who we are
Revelo is operated by Richard Croasdale. For the purposes of UK data protection law, Revelo is the controller for the personal data described in this policy unless stated otherwise.
2. The Revelo app and your photographs
Revelo processes your photographs entirely on your Mac. Your photographs are not uploaded to Revelo servers, and restoring them does not require an account or any cloud service.
The app stores its working files, restored images and preferences on your Mac so that it can provide its features. You control which photographs you add to the app and which files you export from it.
3. Website and support data
If you email us, we receive the contact details and message content you choose to provide. We use these to answer your enquiry, provide support and keep reasonable records of our correspondence.
Our website host may process basic technical information, such as IP address, browser type and server logs, in order to deliver and secure the site.
If you accept analytics cookies from the banner shown on your first visit, we use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use this website — pages visited, approximate location, and device and browser type. This sets cookies and shares this technical information with Google, under Google’s privacy policy. Nothing is set until you accept, and you can change your mind at any time using “Cookie preferences” in the footer.
4. Mac App Store purchases
Revelo is sold through the Mac App Store. Apple processes payment and purchase information under its own privacy policy. Revelo does not receive your payment card details.
5. How we use personal data
- To reply to support questions and feedback.
- To understand how visitors use this website, using Google Analytics — only if you have accepted analytics cookies.
- To operate, secure and improve the website and app.
- To meet legal, accounting or regulatory obligations.
6. Our legal bases
Where UK GDPR applies, we use personal data to respond to requests and provide support on the basis of legitimate interests or, where relevant, to take steps connected with a contract. We may also process data to meet legal obligations. Analytics cookies are different: they are not essential to the site working, so we rely on your consent rather than legitimate interest, and only set them once you have given it.
7. Retention and sharing
We keep support correspondence only for as long as reasonably necessary for support, record-keeping and legal purposes. We do not sell personal data. We use service providers such as website hosting, email and Google Analytics to operate Revelo; they process data only as needed to provide those services.
8. Your rights and contact
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, erase, restrict or object to the processing of your personal data, and to complain to a data-protection authority. For privacy questions or requests, email hello@revelophoto.com.
