LoopSlide Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 21, 2026

Overview

LoopSlide is a digital photo frame app for iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This privacy policy explains what data LoopSlide accesses, how it is used, and your rights.

Data Collection

LoopSlide does not collect or store personal data on developer-operated servers.

We do not use analytics, tracking, or advertising SDKs. The optional weather feature on iPhone and iPad makes a direct request to Open-Meteo as described below.

Data Access

LoopSlide may request access to the following on-device resources:

• Photo Library: To display your photos and videos as a slideshow. Photos are read-only and never uploaded anywhere.
• Local Network: To discover and connect to NAS devices (via DLNA, WebDAV, or SMB) on your local WiFi network. Network access is limited to your local network only.
• Location (optional, iPhone and iPad only): If you enable the weather display feature, your approximate location is sent to the Open-Meteo weather API to fetch current weather data. LoopSlide does not store this location on external servers.
• Files: To access media files you explicitly select from the Files app.

NAS Credentials

If you connect to a NAS via WebDAV or SMB, your server address, username, and password are stored locally on your device using iOS secure storage. These credentials are never transmitted to any third party.

Third-Party Services

The only external service LoopSlide contacts is Open-Meteo (open-meteo.com) for weather data, and only when you explicitly enable the weather display feature. Open-Meteo is a free, open-source weather API that does not require authentication. Please refer to Open-Meteo's terms for their privacy practices.

Data Storage

App settings (playback preferences, NAS configurations) are stored locally on your device using iOS Preferences. Cached media files are stored in the app's temporary cache directory and can be cleared at any time from the app settings.

Children's Privacy

LoopSlide does not knowingly collect data from children under 13. The app does not collect any personal data from any user.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected in the "Last updated" date above.
