Privacy Policy

Last updated: 17 August 2026

This policy explains what FindWear (“we”, “the app”) collects, why, and who we share it with. FindWear is a visual clothing search app: you upload a photo of a garment and we find similar products for sale online.

1. Data we process

Account information

You can use FindWear as a guest, or sign in with an email address, Google or Apple. If you sign in, we store your user ID, and — depending on the method — your email address and display name. Authentication is handled by Google Firebase Authentication; we never see or store your password.

Photos you upload

The photo you choose is sent to our server to run the search. See section 2 for exactly what happens to it.

Search settings

The country and language you select are sent with each search so that results match your market.

Data kept only on your device

Your favourites, search history, remaining search allowance, purchased search credits and app-icon choice are stored locally on your iPhone. They are not uploaded to us, and they are deleted when you delete the app.

What we do not collect

We do not use advertising trackers, we do not sell data, and we do not build advertising profiles. We do not collect your location, contacts or your photo library beyond the single image you pick for a search.

2. What happens to your photos

When you start a search, the photo goes through the following steps:

Important — please read. The temporary image-hosting step means that the photo you search with is placed on a third-party file host and is reachable by anyone who knows its URL. The URL is random and is not published by us, but the image is not private while it is hosted there. Do not search with photos that contain faces, documents, personal information or anything you would not want to be publicly reachable.

3. Third parties

To provide the search we share data with the following processors:

These providers are located outside your country, including in the United States, so your data may be transferred internationally. We share only what is needed for the search to work.

4. Purchases

Subscriptions (monthly and yearly) and one-time search packs are sold through the Apple App Store. Apple processes the payment; we never receive your card number or billing details. We only learn whether your subscription is active and how many searches you have bought.

5. Retention

6. Your rights

Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR in the EU/UK or the KVKK in Türkiye) you have the right to access, correct, delete or export your personal data, and to object to processing.

You can delete your account and its data at any time: open the app, go to Profile, scroll down and tap Delete Account. You can also clear your favourites and search history from the same screen. If you would rather we do it for you, email us using the address below.

7. Children

FindWear is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their data. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, contact us and we will delete it.

8. Changes and contact

If this policy changes materially we will update the date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, notify you in the app. Questions, requests or complaints:
