VINTAPrivacy Policy
Last updated 20 September 2026
In short: The Vinta app doesn't collect any data from you: your photos and videos stay on your iPhone. If you buy Vinta Pro on this website, we hold your email address and a record of your subscription so we can unlock Pro and support you. Stripe handles your payment details; we never see your full card number. We don't sell data and we don't run advertising.
1. Who is responsible for your data
The data controller is Roman Degtyarev, a sole trader based in the United Kingdom. Contact: ro.degtiarev@gmail.com.
2. The Vinta app
The App works entirely on your device. Photos and videos you take, import or develop are processed on your iPhone and saved to your camera roll. They are not uploaded to us. The App asks for camera, microphone and photo-library permissions only so that it can take, record and save pictures; you can change these in iOS Settings at any time.
The App does not contain advertising or third-party tracking, and does not collect analytics.
If you sign in to the App to use Vinta Pro, the App sends your email address to our server to check whether you have an active subscription. That's the only data it sends.
3. This website and Vinta Pro
When you subscribe to Vinta Pro, we collect and hold the following:
| Data | Why we use it | Legal basis |
|---|---|---|
| Email address | To link your subscription to the App, send receipts and renewal notices, and answer support requests | Performance of a contract |
| Subscription status, plan and billing dates | To unlock Pro in the App and manage renewals and cancellations | Performance of a contract |
| Country and, where required, VAT status | To charge the correct tax | Legal obligation |
| Payment details (card number, expiry, billing address) | Collected and stored by Stripe, our payment processor. We see only the last four digits, the card brand and whether the payment succeeded | Performance of a contract |
| Support emails you send us | To help you and to keep a record of what was agreed | Legitimate interests |
| Basic server logs (IP address, browser, pages requested) | Security and keeping the site running. Kept for no more than 30 days | Legitimate interests |
This website does not use advertising cookies. If we add analytics in future, we'll use a privacy-friendly service that doesn't set tracking cookies and we'll update this policy.
4. Who we share data with
- Stripe (Stripe Payments Europe, Ltd / Stripe Payments UK Ltd) processes payments and holds your card details. See Stripe's privacy policy.
- Vercel hosts this website and handles server logs.
- Apple distributes the App through the App Store under its own privacy policy.
- Our email provider, for receipts and support replies.
We don't sell your data and we don't share it with advertisers. We'll disclose data only if the law requires it.
5. International transfers
Some of the providers above process data outside the UK, including in the United States. Where they do, transfers are covered by the UK International Data Transfer Agreement, the EU Standard Contractual Clauses with the UK Addendum, or an adequacy decision.
6. How long we keep data
We keep your email and subscription record while your subscription is active and for 6 years afterwards, because UK tax law requires us to keep records of sales. Support emails are kept for 2 years. Server logs are deleted within 30 days.
7. Your rights
Under UK GDPR you have the right to access the data we hold about you, to have it corrected or deleted, to restrict or object to how we use it, and to receive a copy in a portable format. To exercise any of these, email ro.degtiarev@gmail.com. We'll respond within one month. If you think we've handled your data badly, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk, but we'd appreciate the chance to fix it first.
8. Children
The App is rated 4+ and can be used by anyone. Vinta Pro can only be bought by people aged 18 or over. We don't knowingly collect data from children; if you think we have, contact us and we'll delete it.
9. Changes
We'll update this policy if what we do with data changes. The date at the top shows when it last changed, and we'll email Pro subscribers about any significant change.
