The feel of a camera. The freedom of iPhone.

Photography begins before the shutter. In noticing the light. Choosing what stays sharp. Deciding whether a moment should be held still or allowed to move.

Mancam is built for that part. Inspired by the feel of a mechanical camera, it puts the decisions in your hands, with controls that invite you to slow down, experiment and learn.

One button,
one function.

Turn your iPhone sideways. Set your exposure. Find your focus. Feel the release.

Privacy policy

Last updated: 27 September 2026

This policy explains how the Mancam iPhone app, this website and our support service handle information.

The camera app

Mancam works without an account. We do not include advertising, analytics or tracking SDKs in the app, and we do not operate a server that receives your photos, camera feed or camera settings. We do not sell personal information or use it for targeted advertising.

Camera, photos and permissions

Camera access is used to display the viewfinder and take photographs. Images are processed on your device. Unsaved captures are held temporarily in memory for review and do not survive app termination.

If you unlock saving, Mancam requests add-only Photos permission to save captures. It does not read your existing photo library. Saved images retain camera metadata, such as exposure settings. Mancam does not request your location or add location coordinates to your photos. Device motion is used locally for the horizon level. The app does not record microphone audio.

You can manage permissions in iPhone Settings. Photos saved to your library are managed by you and may sync through iCloud Photos or other services you enable; those services have their own privacy practices.

Local preferences

The app stores limited preferences, such as whether you have completed onboarding, on your device. You can remove app-local data by deleting the app. Deleting Mancam does not delete images already saved to Photos or your Apple purchase history.

Purchases

Apple handles the optional one-time purchase and payment information. Mancam uses Apple’s StoreKit to verify whether saving is unlocked and to restore purchases. We do not receive your payment-card details. Apple may separately process App Store, purchase and diagnostic information under its own policies. See Apple’s App Store privacy notice.

This website

This website has no analytics scripts, advertising pixels or application cookies. It is hosted by Cloudflare, which processes technical request information, such as IP addresses, browser information and requested URLs, to deliver and protect the site. Hosting and security data is handled under Cloudflare’s practices and applicable service settings. See Cloudflare’s privacy policy.

When you contact support

If you email us, we receive your email address, your message and any attachments you choose to send. We use them to respond, investigate problems and improve Mancam. Please send only information needed for your request. Our email providers process messages to deliver and store them; we retain support correspondence only as needed to address your request and meet applicable obligations.

Your choices and requests

You can change app permissions, remove app-local data and manage saved photos on your device. Contact us to request access to, correction of or deletion of personal information you have provided through support, or to exercise other rights available under applicable law. Because we do not receive your app photos, we cannot access or delete them for you.

Updates and contact

We may update this policy when the app or our practices change. The date above identifies the latest revision. For privacy questions or requests, email support@mobileapps.services.
