Privacy Policy
The short version: Evir processes all of your media on your device. Your files are never uploaded to us or anyone else, and we do not collect, store, or sell your personal data. Evir has no accounts, no ads, and no third-party analytics or tracking SDKs.
This Privacy Policy describes how Evir – Media Converter ("Evir", "the app", "we") handles information when you use the app on your iPhone or iPad.
1. Your media stays on your device
Every conversion, compression, and editing operation in Evir — video, audio, image, and PDF — runs entirely on your device using on-device frameworks (FFmpeg, AVFoundation, and Apple's media APIs). Your photos, videos, audio files, and documents:
- are never uploaded to our servers or any third party;
- are never analyzed by us in any way;
- remain under your control in the app's local My Creation folder, which you can access, share, or delete at any time (it is also visible in the Files app).
2. Data we collect
None. Evir does not collect personal data. The app has no user accounts, no sign-in, no advertising, and no analytics or tracking SDKs.
3. Network requests the app makes
Evir works fully offline. The only network requests the app makes are lightweight version checks so we can tell you when an update is available:
- a request to our static website (hosted on GitHub Pages) to read a small file describing the latest available app version; and
- a request to Apple's public iTunes lookup service to find the app's App Store page.
These requests contain no personal information and no information about your media. Like any web request, they technically expose your IP address to the hosting provider (GitHub and Apple respectively) for the duration of the request; we do not receive, log, or store it.
4. Device permissions
Evir asks for permissions only when a feature needs them, and only uses them for that feature:
- Photo Library — to let you pick videos and photos to convert, and to save results if you choose. You can grant access to only selected items.
- Camera — used only by the document scanner to scan pages into a PDF.
- Files — files you pick through the system file browser are accessed only to perform the operation you requested.
You can change or revoke any permission at any time in the iOS Settings app.
5. Apple Intelligence assistant
The in-app assistant answers questions about Evir's features. On devices that support Apple Intelligence, it uses Apple's on-device foundation model — your questions are processed on your device and are not sent to us. On other devices, it uses simple built-in responses. The assistant never accesses your media.
6. App Store data
If you download Evir from the App Store, Apple may provide us with aggregated, anonymized statistics (such as download counts and crash reports) in accordance with Apple's Privacy Policy and your own device analytics settings. This data cannot be used to identify you, and its collection is controlled by Apple, not by us.
7. Children's privacy
Evir does not collect personal data from anyone, including children under 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your jurisdiction).
8. Data retention and deletion
Because we collect no data, there is nothing for us to retain or delete. All files Evir creates are stored locally on your device; deleting them in the app or in the Files app, or deleting the app itself, removes them permanently.
9. Changes to this policy
If we ever change how Evir handles data, we will update this page and revise the effective date above. Material changes (for example, if a future feature required a network service) will be clearly described here before they take effect.
