Verithia Privacy Policy
Verithia helps you capture important photos, share them normally, and let others check whether a shared photo still matches its original record. This policy explains the types of information Verithia handles, why it is needed, and the choices you have.
At a Glance
- Verithia is currently free to use, with no in-app purchases, and we do not collect any payment information.
- We use no analytics, advertising, trackers, or third-party crash reporting.
- We do not sell your data, photos, location, or verification records.
- Photos are not stored on Verithia's servers. They are processed only to capture or verify them, then discarded; copies you save stay on your device.
- Evidence saved in the app stays on your device unless you choose to share or export it.
- Capturing a record requires an account and location access. Verifying a photo does not require an account.
What Verithia Collects
When you capture a record, Verithia handles a limited set of information needed to create that record and make it checkable later, including:
- Capture context. Basic information about when and where the capture happened, along with limited app and device context needed to support verification.
- Account information. Basic account information needed to sign in, manage records, and support account features.
- Verification information. Information derived from the photo and its record so Verithia can compare a submitted image with the original record later.
- Photos you submit. Your photo is handled only when needed to complete the capture or verification you request.
Verithia does not use advertising identifiers or collect tracking identifiers for advertising. Verification does not require a Verithia account.
How Your Photos Are Handled
Photos are not stored on Verithia's servers. When you capture or verify a photo, the image is processed only to complete that action and is then discarded. Verithia's servers keep a cryptographic fingerprint and record metadata, enough to verify a photo later, but not the photo itself. Copies you save in the app or to your Photo Library stay on your device.
Stored on Your Device
The Evidence Library stores your saved records on your device using the protections provided by your device. It can include captured photos, verification records, and optional labels or notes you add. Labels and notes stay on your device unless you choose to share or export them.
Stored by Verithia
To keep a record verifiable over time, Verithia keeps limited service records, including:
- records needed to check a photo later;
- account records, if you create an account;
- status information for links you create; and
- basic operational, security, and support records.
These records are retained to support verification, account access, abuse prevention, security, and customer support.
Location
Capturing a record requires location access because location is part of the capture context. Verithia requests location access while you use the app. If you do not grant location access, you can still verify photos, but you cannot capture new records.
Verifying a Photo and Public Proof Pages
Anyone you share a verification link with can check whether an image still matches the associated record. Verifying a photo in the app or on this website sends that photo to Verithia so it can be checked, after which it is discarded as described above. Verification results do not reveal your account identity.
Private Proof Links
You can create private verification links and revoke links you have shared. Verithia stores only the information needed to recognize and manage those links.
Service Providers
Verithia shares data only with providers needed to operate, protect, and support the service. These may include account, platform, hosting, network, payment, security, and support providers. They are allowed to use information only to provide services to Verithia.
Verithia does not use analytics, advertising networks, trackers, or third-party crash or telemetry tools. The app contains no third-party tracking code, and this website loads no third-party scripts.
What Verithia Does Not Do
- Does not sell your data, photos, location, or verification records.
- Does not show ads or use advertising identifiers.
- Does not track you across apps or websites.
- Does not collect payment information.
Data Retention and Account Deletion
Verification records are retained so that records you create can remain checkable. You can delete your account from Settings; doing so removes or deactivates account access and revokes private share links where possible. Some verification records may be retained after account deletion so that previously created records continue to work and to protect the integrity of the service. Evidence stored on your device remains on your device until you delete it there.
Security
Verithia uses technical, administrative, and operational safeguards designed to protect the information it handles. No method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure, however, and Verithia cannot guarantee absolute security.
Children
Verithia is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy. We will revise the date above and, for material changes, provide notice in the app or on this page.
