Privacy Policy
Effective: July 24, 2026
This policy applies to the iOS app "Peekino / 間違い探し工房" (the "App"), provided by GARLAND Inc. ("we", "us").
What we collect and send
Only when you edit an image with AI, the following is sent through our server (Google Cloud, Tokyo region) to an AI provider (such as Google Gemini):
- The image you are editing (only the photo you selected — we never read your photo library as a whole)
- Your editing instruction (the text you typed, e.g. "change this to a balloon")
Storage and use
- The images and instructions you send are not stored — they only pass through for processing.
- Your data is not used to train AI models (per the providers' terms for their paid APIs).
- For operations and troubleshooting, our server records metadata only: when, which device, how many times, estimated cost, and which processing route. We do not record the image, the instruction text, or hashes of them.
Device verification (App Attest)
To prevent abuse and impersonation, we use Apple's App Attest to verify that requests come from the genuine App on a real device. This verifies the device and the App only — it does not collect your name or any personal details.
Account
No account or sign-up is required (we do not collect your name or email address). To manage your ink balance, the App stores a random, anonymous identifier that we issue in your device's secure storage (Keychain), and our server associates your balance with it. This identifier is not linked to your name or any personal information. It is used to carry your balance over when you reinstall the App or move to a new device.
Purchases
Ink purchases are made through Apple In-App Purchase; payment details are handled by Apple (we never receive your credit card number). To validate purchases, credit your balance, and restore it on a new device, we store transaction information received from Apple (such as transaction identifiers — these contain no name or payment details) and a ledger of your balance changes.
Third parties (processors)
- Google (Gemini API / Vertex AI — image processing)
- OpenAI (backup image processing)
- Apple (In-App Purchase, App Attest)
These providers act only for image processing, purchases, and device verification. We do not share your data for any other purpose.
Children
The App is suitable for all ages. As described above, it does not ask for any personal information.
Changes
If we make material changes to this policy, the App will ask for your consent again (managed by a policy version number).
