Effective 6 November 2026

In short

I'm Gabriel Conlon, an independent app developer and photographer based in Dublin, Ireland. I make the apps below, run this website and take photos as Two Out Media, and this policy covers all three.

I don't collect your data. My apps have no accounts, no analytics, no advertising and no tracking, and nothing you put into them is sent to me. What you create stays on your devices and, where an app syncs, in your own iCloud account. Some features ask a public service for something on your behalf, such as a route, live transit times or a forecast; each app's section of this policy names those services and says what is sent.

This website has no analytics, advertising or tracking cookies. If you use the contact or support form, I receive what you type so I can reply, and I delete it once it's dealt with.

When I take photos and video, I publish pictures of people only with their consent, spoken or written, taken at events or sessions where people know I have a camera and that the pictures may be used on social media and in my own portfolio. If you are in one of my pictures and want it taken down, use the contact form and I will remove it.

Under the GDPR you can ask what I hold about you, and have it corrected or deleted, through the contact form. You can also complain to the Data Protection Commission in Ireland (dataprotection.ie).

Your information in this app

  • Your Photos library, if you allow access: Read on your device so you can cull it. Photos are never uploaded anywhere by the app; albums you add photos to, and video clips you trim, stay in your own Photos library.
  • Your stars, pick flags, rejects and colour labels: Kept in the app's own database on your device and synced through your own iCloud account (a private iCloud database), so your Mac, iPad and iPhone show the same marks.
  • Keywords such as "FPC:4★" (Mac, if you allow it): Written onto your photos in Photos, so your Photos smart albums can filter by your marks. They stay in your Photos library.
  • Approximate positions of your photos, for place names: To label photos with a place, the Mac app sends a photo's coordinates (rounded to about a kilometre) to Apple Maps and keeps the name it gets back on your device.

Permissions and why

  • Photos: To show your library for culling and add photos to the albums you choose.
  • Add to Photos (iPhone and iPad): To save video clips you trim as new videos in Photos.
  • Control Photos (Mac): To add keywords for your marks to photos in Photos, so smart albums can use them.

Third parties

  • Apple iCloud (CloudKit), Photos and Apple Maps: iCloud syncs your marks between your devices under your own Apple Account. Apple Maps turns photo positions into place names. Their policy

Retention and deletion

Your marks are kept for as long as you keep them in the app. Nothing is kept anywhere else by me.

How to request deletion

Clear marks in the app and they are removed from your devices and iCloud. To remove everything, delete the app's data in Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Manage Account Storage, then delete the app. Albums and keywords in Photos are yours to remove in Photos.
