Memoir

Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 13, 2026

Memoir is built to keep your photos on your device. Here’s exactly what happens with your data.

On your device

When you create a memoir, Memoir reads photos from your library to group them, find duplicates, and build a layout. All of this analysis happens locally on your phone. Your photos never leave your device unless you choose to share a memoir.

When you share a memoir

If you tap “Share Memoir,” the photos in that specific memoir are uploaded to our hosting infrastructure (Cloudflare R2 for storage, Vercel for the web viewer) so they can be viewed at a private, unguessable link. Only photos in the shared memoir are uploaded — never your full library. Anyone with the link can view that memoir; the link is not indexed or listed publicly.

What we don’t do

We don’t track you. We don’t use analytics. We don’t have accounts or sign-in. We don’t show ads. We don’t sell, share, or look at your photos. There is no third-party tracking SDK in the app.

Permissions

Memoir asks for access to your Photos library so it can read images and metadata (date, location, dimensions) to build memoirs. You can change this at any time in iOS Settings → Memoir.

Deleting shared memoirs

Currently, shared memoirs remain hosted at their link until you contact us to remove them. Email lakesideexperiments@gmail.com with the memoir link and we’ll delete it.

Children

Memoir is not directed at children under 13.
