A plain-language boundary between the library on your device and the connected services you choose to use.
Glimpse stores your saved library on your device. Connected features are narrower: an AI action processes only the information needed for that action, while account, subscription, security, and limited analytics information are handled separately. We do not sell personal data or use it for advertising.
The table below separates your local library from the information needed to run connected parts of the product. A backup file follows the destination you choose, so treat it as sensitive if you share it.
| Data type | Where it lives | When it moves | Retained |
|---|---|---|---|
| Saved links, summaries, tags, Collections, and notes | On your device | Not uploaded as a server-side library | Until you delete them, clear the app, or uninstall it |
| Backup files | In the folder or service you choose | Only where you choose to save or share them | Until you remove those files |
| Account identity | With our account service | Your chosen sign-in service and our account service | While your account exists, subject to required records |
| Subscription status and purchase records | With subscription and app-store services | The services needed to confirm and manage a purchase | As needed for your account, purchase, and legal records |
| Limited product analytics | With our product analytics service | Used by us to understand feature use and diagnose problems | For product operations or until an eligible deletion request is completed |
| Information needed for an AI action | Processed for that request; not added to a server-side copy of your library | Our service and an AI processing service | Subject to short-lived operational records and the processor's policy |
| A saved URL and basic link details when richer content is requested | Processed for that request | A link-content retrieval service when the original site requires it | Only as needed to complete and protect the request |
Glimpse sends only what is needed for the action you choose. Adding context to a save can use that link's URL and page details. Meaning-based search uses a short description of the saved item or query. Ask uses your question and the relevant context from the selected saves. Optional notification wording can use the context needed for that notification. Your whole library is not sent as one bulk upload.
Glimpse supports Google and Apple sign-in. Depending on what your chosen sign-in service shares, we may receive an email address, name, and profile image. We use the account to recognize you, manage plan status, apply monthly allowances, and protect connected features from misuse. The account is separate from the saved library on your device.
Notification delivery is scheduled on your device. The wording can be drafted through an AI request using the context needed for that notification. If that request is unavailable, Glimpse uses fallback wording. Glimpse does not need a remote push message to deliver these scheduled reminders.
You can create and restore backup files, choose a folder, and schedule automatic backups after a folder is selected. You may also share a backup to another app or storage service. A backup can contain your full library; Glimpse cannot control a copy after you choose to move or share it.
We use specialist services for the purposes below. Providers can change as the product evolves. Contact meyashjoshi3101@gmail.com if you need the current processor list for a privacy request.
Confirms Google or Apple sign-in and keeps the account information needed to recognize you. It does not receive a server-side copy of your saved library.
Confirms plan status and lets the app store manage payment, renewal, cancellation, and eligible refunds. We do not receive your full card details.
Processes only the input needed for the action you start, such as adding context to a link, searching by meaning, answering from selected saves, or drafting notification wording.
Fetches page information and, for some video or social links, may retrieve captions or transcripts so Glimpse can understand what was saved.
Checks that connected requests come from a genuine app install and applies monthly allowances and misuse protections.
Collects limited information such as app version, device and operating-system details, and feature-use events so we can diagnose problems and improve the product. It is not used for advertising.
Internet access is needed for sign-in, page information, connected features, subscription checks, and security. Notification permission lets you receive reminders scheduled by the app. Billing access lets the app store manage an optional subscription. Glimpse does not need your camera, microphone, contacts, or location for its core experience.
Your on-device library remains until you delete items, clear the app's data, or uninstall it. Backup files remain wherever you chose to place them. Account, subscription, security, analytics, and operational records are kept only as long as needed for the purposes described above, including legal, fraud-prevention, and purchase-record obligations.
You can remove local items or clear the library from Settings. Uninstalling also removes the app's private local data, but does not remove backup files you placed elsewhere or cancel an active app-store subscription. For an account or eligible server-side data deletion request, email meyashjoshi3101@gmail.com. We may need to verify the request and may retain records that law or fraud prevention requires.
Glimpse is not directed to children under 13, or a higher minimum age where local law requires it. If you believe a child has provided personal information through Glimpse, contact us so we can review the situation.
We may update this policy when the product or its data practices change. The date at the top shows the latest revision. If a change materially affects how personal information is handled, we will provide notice appropriate to the change.
