Privacy policy
Dreadcam privacy policy
Dreadcam turns a photo you choose into an image that looks like security-camera footage with a blurred figure far behind you. This page summarises what leaves your device, who receives it and why. The full policy, last updated October 7, 2026, is the one linked from the Google Play listing.
The key points
- The full photo you choose is sent to our server and on to fal.ai, an AI service provider, to check it is safe and to find where the people in it are.
- In some pictures a second copy of your room, with the people and faces painted over in one flat colour, is sent to an AI image model (also run through fal.ai). Our own code takes only the added figure from the answer, blurs and dims it, and places it on your own photo.
- Each time before an upload the app asks for your consent. Without it, nothing is uploaded.
- We do not use your photos to train anything, and we do not sell them. There are no accounts. Every result is labelled "AI-generated image".
- The app is for people aged 18 and over. Do not upload photos of children.
What we store
- Our server does not store the photo you upload. It keeps the finished result files (a preview, a still image and a short GIF) behind time-limited private links, and deletes them automatically 30 days after they are created.
- A device identifier and a purchase identifier, kept only as salted one-way hashes, with counts such as how many free pictures were used, and a record of each job.
- Reports you send from inside the app.
Service providers
- fal.ai receives the photo for the safety check and for finding where people are.
- RevenueCat manages purchase status. Google Play (and the App Store) process payments; we never see your card.
- Google Firebase Analytics and Crashlytics record usage events and crash traces under a random app-instance identifier. We do not use advertising SDKs.
Your choices
To have your result files and related records deleted, e-mail [email protected] and include the share link of the picture, or the job ID, if you have it. The delete-data page says more. Uninstalling the app does not delete result files on our server.
