Privacy Policy

This policy explains how iRana Cams handles information when you use the app. The app connects directly to your cameras and does not send camera data or capture contents to an Irana Labs-operated server. It has no ads, analytics, or tracking.

Information stored on your device

Camera names, addresses, usernames, stream URLs, device details, dashboards, preferences, thumbnails, snapshots, and video recordings may be stored on your device. Camera passwords are stored in the iOS Keychain. Snapshots and recordings saved to Photos are managed separately by the Photos app.

iCloud sync

iCloud sync is off by default. If you turn it on in Settings > Account & Devices, camera configuration (including usernames and device details), dashboards, and supported settings are stored in your private iCloud database. Camera passwords are not stored in CloudKit records; the app also requests an iCloud-synchronizable Keychain item when available. This data is associated with your Apple Account and is not available through an Irana Labs-operated server.

Uploading snapshots from this device requires the separate Upload snapshots to iCloud setting. Enabling it also uploads existing in-app snapshots that are not already synced. Snapshots already in iCloud remain there if you later disable uploads. Video recordings are not uploaded by iRana Cams. Turning sync off stops future updates but does not remove existing iCloud copies. Use Delete iCloud Data in Settings > Account & Devices to remove iRana Cams data from iCloud. Turn off sync on your other devices first to prevent them from uploading the data again.

Camera connections and local network

The app connects directly to cameras to discover them with ONVIF, play video with RTSP, and send supported camera controls. Camera video and credentials are not sent to an Irana Labs-operated server.

Photos

If you choose to save snapshots or recordings to Photos, iRana Cams requests add-only access. The app cannot read your photo library. Copies already saved to Photos must be deleted in Photos.

Retention and deletion

Delete a camera or use Clear all cameras in the app to remove saved camera credentials from the Keychain. Delete iCloud Data removes iRana Cams data from iCloud while keeping local data. Deleting the app removes its app-container files, but Keychain passwords may remain; delete them in the app before uninstalling.

Children

iRana Cams is not directed to children and does not knowingly collect information from children.
