Privacy Policy for Mountain Identifier

Last updated: August 25, 2026

Summary

Mountain Identifier sends information off your device only when needed for features you choose or to operate, secure, and improve the app. Ideas All Day Ltd does not sell your photos, prompts, saved records, or location, and the app does not use personalized advertising.

AI processing

When you request an AI feature, the app sends up to four mountain photos you select, optional precise location and nearby-peak context, the generated identification instruction, and—when you use follow-up chat or peak enrichment—your question and relevant saved peak details through a developer-operated AIProxy service to Anthropic. A DeviceCheck token may be attached to help validate genuine app requests and prevent abuse.

The proxy records limited operational metadata such as request time, provider and model, request and response sizes, token usage, status, response time, IP address, and an error category. It is not designed to store image, prompt, chat, or response bodies in analytics logs. Operational records are generally removed after approximately 60 days; short-lived DeviceCheck replay records are generally removed after approximately 24 hours. Security records may be retained longer when needed to investigate abuse or comply with law.

Anthropic processes submitted content under the developer account configuration and its applicable commercial terms and privacy practices. Do not submit images or text containing unrelated personal, confidential, or legally sensitive information.

Saved data and iCloud

Selected photos, likely peak details, Climbed, Planned, or Wishlist status, saved chat history, and optional capture coordinates are stored in the app and may sync through your private Apple iCloud account when iCloud is available and enabled.

Optional location

If you grant while-in-use location permission, the app can use precise coordinates, altitude, and compass context to request nearby OpenStreetMap peaks, look up reference elevation, narrow an identification request, place approximate Look Around labels, and save location with a peak record. OpenStreetMap Overpass and Open-Elevation receive geographic queries for these features. Location is optional and can be denied or revoked in iOS Settings.

Analytics, purchases, and feedback

  • Aptabase receives limited content-free product events such as app launches, feature use, counts, and success or failure categories. Photos, precise location, species or item names, chat text, AI responses, feedback text, and raw errors are not intentionally included.
  • Apple processes downloads, purchases, subscription management, review prompts, DeviceCheck, and iCloud data under Apple's policies.
  • Superwall processes technical, paywall, purchase, and subscription information needed to present offers and determine access.
  • FeaturePortal processes feature requests, votes, comments, and technical information only when you open or use that interface. Support email is processed by your email provider.

Accuracy and safety

AI matches, nearby labels, elevation, route context, and follow-up answers can be incomplete, outdated, or wrong. Mountain Identifier is not a map, navigation, route-planning, weather, avalanche, volcanic, closure, permit, rescue, emergency, or safety service. Verify every important detail with current official local sources and qualified guidance.

Retention, deletion, and choices

Delete individual saved peaks and supported conversations in the app. You can also remove local data by deleting the app and manage any remaining Mountain Identifier data through Apple iCloud settings.

Third-party services may retain limited operational, purchase, analytics, or support records under their own policies, backups, security requirements, and legal obligations. You can revoke camera, photo-library, and location permissions in iOS Settings and manage subscriptions through your Apple Account.

Service providers

Website

This public page is separate from the app. Vercel hosts the website and may process ordinary request information needed to deliver, secure, and diagnose the site. The website does not add an advertising network.

Children, security, and changes

The app is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. We use reasonable safeguards, but no transmission or storage system is completely secure. This policy may be updated when the app, providers, or legal requirements change; the date above identifies the current version.
