Privacy Policy
Effective date: November 5, 2026
This English version is a translation provided for convenience. If it differs from the Korean version, the Korean version prevails.
1. At a Glance
SEUNG YOUNG LIM (the “Developer”), who made picpass (the “App”), complies with the Personal Information Protection Act of Korea and other applicable laws, and handles the information of people who use the App with care. This document explains what information the App handles and how.
- The App has no sign-up or login.
- The information the App handles is stored only on your device. The Developer does not collect or receive this information.
- The App does not use a developer server, advertising, or analytics or tracking tools.
2. Information Handled on Your Device and Its Purpose
To create, display, and organize tickets, the App stores the following information only on your device.
| Information | Used for |
|---|---|
| Ticket details (name, origin and destination, flight number, date, seat, and other content you enter or edit) | Creating and displaying tickets |
| Ticket images, and stickers cut out from photos | Creating and displaying tickets |
| Capture time and location of the photos you choose (if the photo contains them) | Filling in the ticket’s date and destination, and showing it on the map |
| Location when you take a photo with the camera (if you allow location access) | Filling in the ticket’s arrival city, and showing it on the map |
| Information that points to the original photo in the Photos app | Linking a ticket to its original photo |
| Album names, profile name, airline name, and display settings | Organizing albums and App settings |
If the background cannot be separated from a photo, content from the original photo may remain in the ticket image.
3. Information That Leaves Your Device
The App does not send information to the Developer. However, in the cases below, information is sent from your device to Apple, or to a destination you choose, through iOS features.
- Location name lookup: To find a city name from the latitude and longitude obtained from a photo or the camera, the App sends the coordinates to Apple’s location name lookup feature.
- Map: The ticket map screen loads and displays Apple Maps data.
- Saving to Photos: If you choose Save, the ticket image is added to the Photos app as a new photo. If you use iCloud Photos, this copy may be synced.
- Sharing: If you choose AirDrop, Messages, or another option on the share sheet, the ticket image is sent there. The App does not keep or delete shared copies.
Information sent through Apple features is processed in accordance with the Apple Privacy Policy.
4. How Permissions Are Used
| Permission | How it is used |
|---|---|
| Choosing photos | You choose photos with the system photo picker, so the App does not request full access to the Photos app. The capture time and location in your photo library are looked up only if full access has already been granted. |
| Adding to Photos | If you choose Save, the ticket image is added to the Photos app as a new photo. Existing photos are not changed. |
| Camera | Used to take a photo with the camera and create a ticket. Photos taken this way are not saved to the Photos app. |
| Location | When the camera screen is first ready, the App asks for location access “While Using the App.” It does not use “Always” access or background location. When you open the camera, the App checks your current location once and stops within 10 seconds at the latest. You can create tickets without allowing it; in that case the destination appears as “WHERE” and the ticket is not shown on the map. You can see the status under Settings › Permissions › “Camera Location Access” in the App, and go to the iOS Settings app to change it. |
5. Retention and Deletion
Information is kept on your device until you delete it or delete the App. Because the Developer does not keep any information separately, there is no deletion procedure on the Developer’s side.
- When you delete a ticket, that ticket’s information in the App is deleted. Copies saved to the Photos app and shared copies are not deleted.
- When you delete an album, the tickets in it are moved to the default album.
- When you delete the App, all information stored in the App is deleted. Copies already included in iCloud or computer backups follow the settings of those backups.
- The preview cache is kept temporarily and can be cleared under Settings › App · Storage · About.
6. Provision to Third Parties and Outsourcing of Processing
The Developer does not provide personal information to third parties and does not outsource its processing. Anything you send yourself using the share feature is sent by your own choice.
7. Transfer Abroad
The Developer does not transfer personal information abroad. Information sent directly from your device to Apple through the Apple features the App uses (location name lookup and maps) is processed in accordance with Apple’s privacy policy.
8. Your Rights and How to Exercise Them
You can view, edit, and delete your tickets and albums in the App at any time. Deleting the App deletes all information. You can change photo, camera, and location permissions in the iOS Settings app at any time. For any other inquiries, please use the contact details below.
9. Children Under 14
The App does not collect personal information from anyone, including children. All information is stored only on your device.
10. Security Measures
Information is stored only in the App’s storage on your device and is protected by iOS Data Protection (device encryption). Because it is not sent to a developer server, there is no risk during transmission or server storage.
