Privacy Policy

Effective date: 1 October 2026 · Anonymask for iOS, published by Epika Labs

The short version: Anonymask collects nothing. It has no account, no servers, no analytics and no network requests. Everything it does happens on your iPhone, and nothing you record is ever sent to us or to anyone else.

What the app uses on your device

• Camera. The front TrueDepth camera shows your live preview and records video. Apple's ARKit uses it to track the position and expressions of your face so the mask can follow you. That face data is processed in memory, frame by frame, and is never stored, saved to a file or transmitted.
• Microphone. Records the audio for your clip and applies the voice preset you choose. Audio stays on the device.
• Photos (add only). Saves your finished videos to your photo library. The app asks for add-only access, so it cannot see, read or change anything already in your library.
• Settings. Your choices, such as the last mask and voice you used, are stored locally on the device so they are there next time.

Clips you record are kept in the app's temporary storage on your device while the app is open. They are removed when you delete them in the app, and any left over are removed the next time the app starts. Temporary copies made while saving a video to Photos are deleted as soon as the save finishes.

Face data and the TrueDepth camera

Anonymask uses Apple's ARKit face tracking, which relies on the front TrueDepth camera, to place a mask over your face. This section explains exactly what that involves.

• What is collected. For each camera frame, ARKit provides the position and orientation of your face, a face geometry mesh, and blend shape values that describe your expression. This is the only face data the app handles.
• Why it is used. For one purpose only: to align and animate the mask over your face in the live preview and in the video being recorded, so the mask follows your head and expressions. It is not used for anything else.
• What it is not used for. The app does not use Face ID, does not identify, authenticate or verify who you are, does not create a faceprint, face template or enrolment record, does not match your face against any database, and performs no face recognition of any kind.
• Storage. Face data is held only in memory for the frame being drawn and is overwritten by the next frame. It is never written to a file, a database, the keychain, app settings or any other storage. It is not embedded in your recorded video: the video contains the mask drawn over your face, not face mesh data.
• Retention. None. Face data exists only for the lifetime of a single frame and nothing about your face persists after that frame is drawn, or after the app is closed.
• Sharing and disclosure. Face data is never shared with, sold to or disclosed to anyone, including Epika Labs. The app makes no network requests, has no server, and contains no third-party SDK, so there is nowhere for it to go.
• Third parties. No third party receives face data. No analytics, advertising, crash reporting or other third-party service is included in the app.
• Deletion. There is nothing to delete, because nothing is stored. Face data is released with the frame it belongs to. Camera access can be revoked at any time in iOS Settings, which stops face tracking entirely.

What we do not collect

We do not collect, store or receive any personal data. There is no sign-in, no advertising, no analytics, no crash reporting service and no tracking of any kind. We cannot see your videos, your face or your voice, and we have no copy of anything you make.

Sharing

Because we receive no data, we share none. If you share a video from Photos to another app or service, that service's own privacy terms apply to what you post.

Deleting your data

All data lives on your device. Delete clips inside the app, remove saved videos from Photos, or delete the app to remove everything it stored. Camera, microphone and Photos permissions can be changed at any time in iOS Settings.

Children

Anonymask is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly process their data. It collects no data from anyone.

Changes

If this policy changes, the new version will be posted at this address with a new effective date. If a future version of the app ever needs to collect data, that will be stated here and shown in the app before it applies.
