Glimma ("we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using Glimma, you agree to this policy.
Account information. When you create an account, we collect your name, phone number or email, and a username. If you sign in with Apple, we receive a private relay email and your chosen display name.
Content you create. Status posts, voice memos, captions, and reactions you create in the app.
Contacts (optional). If you grant permission, we read your device contacts to suggest people to connect with. Contact data is matched on-device or in a hashed form and is never sold.
Calendar (optional). If you grant permission, we read calendar events to surface scheduling context for invites. We never modify your calendar without your action.
Microphone (optional). If you grant permission, audio you record is sent to our speech-to-text service for transcription and to our servers to deliver voice memos to recipients.
Device & diagnostic data. Crash reports, performance metrics, and basic device info (model, OS version) collected via Sentry to improve stability.
Subscription & purchase data. If you subscribe to Premium Expressions, Apple processes the payment and shares a receipt with us indicating your subscription status. We never see your card details — only whether your subscription is active.
Glimma uses the following third-party services that may process your data on our behalf:
We do not sell your personal information. We do not share your content with advertisers. We share data with the third-party services listed above only as needed to operate the app, and only under contractual confidentiality.
We retain your account data while your account is active. You can delete your account at any time from inside the app (Settings → Account → Delete Account), or by emailing privacy@glimma.social. Deletion is permanent and typically completes within 30 days.
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to access, correct, export, or delete your personal data. To exercise these rights, contact privacy@glimma.social.
Glimma is not directed to children under 13 (or the applicable age of digital consent in your country). We do not knowingly collect data from children under that age.
We use industry-standard encryption (HTTPS in transit, encryption at rest via Firebase) and access controls. No system is perfectly secure, but we work continuously to protect your information.
Glimma is hosted on Google Cloud infrastructure. Your data may be processed in the United States or other countries where our service providers operate.
We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be announced in the app or by email. The "last updated" date above reflects the latest revision.
