Privacy Policy
Last updated: 5 November 2026
ContentCam is built by an Australian solo developer for content creators who shoot both portrait and landscape video. There is no account and no login, and your videos never leave your phone: we never see anything you record.
From version 2.8.1 (November 2026), the iPhone app measures which ads lead to installs, trials and purchases, as described below. The Android app collects nothing.
Data we collect
Android: none. The Android app has no analytics, attribution or advertising SDKs and sends nothing to us.
iPhone (version 2.8.1 and later): ad measurement only. We never collect your name, email, contacts, location, photos or videos.
- Apple Ads attribution (Apple AdServices). Once per new install, the app asks Apple for an attribution token and sends it to our server together with a random install ID created on your phone (not your device's advertising ID), the app version and your App Store country. Our server exchanges the token with Apple, which tells us whether the install came from one of our Apple Ads campaigns and, if so, which campaign, ad group and keyword. When you start a trial or make a purchase, the app sends the same install ID with the product (monthly, annual or lifetime), the price and currency. The install ID is also attached to your purchase so that Apple's App Store Server Notifications (renewals, cancellations, refunds) can be matched to it. This does not require tracking permission and does not identify you.
- Meta SDK (Facebook Core). We run ads on Instagram and Facebook. The app includes Meta's SDK, which tells Meta when the app is installed and opened and when a trial or purchase happens (with the product, price and currency), so Meta can measure and improve our ads. Automatic collection of screen and interface data is switched off. If you tap Allow on the "Allow tracking" prompt, Meta also receives your device's advertising identifier (IDFA). In the EU, EEA, UK and Switzerland, the Meta SDK only starts if you tap Allow. Meta handles this data under its own privacy policy.
You can turn tracking off at any time in iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking. Because of the Meta SDK, the App Store privacy label for ContentCam lists "Data Used to Track You".
Permissions
ContentCam requests only the permissions required for its core function:
- Camera: to record video.
- Microphone: to record audio with your video.
- Saving videos to your device library (add only): to save the videos you record into your device's photo/video library. On iOS this uses the add-only Photo Library permission; on Android, videos are written through the system media store. On both platforms the app can only add the videos you record. It never requests read access to your existing photos or videos. (On Android 9 and older, a legacy storage permission is used solely to save your recordings; it is not requested on Android 10 or newer.)
Each permission is explained in your device's system prompt. You can revoke them at any time in your device settings (iOS Settings → ContentCam, or Android Settings → Apps → ContentCam → Permissions).
Data we don't collect
- We never see or receive your videos, photos, scripts or anything else you create in the app.
- We do not collect your name, email, location, contacts, calendar or browsing history.
- We do not have access to your existing photo library, only the ability to add new videos that you record in the app.
- We do not sell any data.
Where your videos are stored
- Inside the app's own private, sandboxed storage on your device until you delete them or uninstall the app.
- In your device's photo/video library (the iOS Photos library, or your Android gallery via the system media store) when you choose to save a take from the in-app review screen. ContentCam does not delete videos from your device library; that's managed by you in your Photos or Gallery app.
Third-party services
Every recording is processed and stored on your device. The app's network code is limited to: the platform's purchase machinery (StoreKit on iPhone; Google Play Billing and Play's in-app update check on Android), and on iPhone only, Apple AdServices, the Meta SDK and the attribution call to our own server described above. Recording and everything else in the app works with no connection at all.
Our website
Everything above is about the app. The website (contentcam.app) counts page views without cookies. One page, contentcam.app/get, is where our Instagram ads send people. Outside Europe it loads the Meta Pixel, which tells Meta that the page was viewed and whether the App Store button was tapped, so Meta can show our ads to people likely to be interested. Meta may set cookies for this and handles that data under its own privacy policy; you can control ad personalisation in your Meta account settings. The page itself never asks for your name, email or any other details.
Purchases and subscriptions
ContentCam offers optional in-app purchases and subscriptions. All payments are processed by the platform's store (Apple through the App Store on iOS, or Google through Google Play on Android) and ContentCam never sees or stores your payment details. From Google we receive only aggregated sales data. From Apple we receive sales data and, on iPhone, the purchase events described above, linked to the random install ID rather than to you. Your subscription is managed entirely through your Apple Account (iOS Settings) or your Google Play account (Play Store → Payments & subscriptions).
Children
ContentCam is rated for general audiences (4+ on the App Store; rated by the IARC for Google Play) and is suitable for general use. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children.

Changes to this policy
If we ever change this policy (e.g., adding cloud sync or accounts in a future version), we'll update this page and notify users via the App Store and Google Play release notes.
