Privacy Policy

Last updated November 9, 2026

Summary

BG Remover edits your photos on your device. We do not upload your photos, we do not run servers that receive them, and we do not ask you to create an account.

Photos you edit

When you choose a photo, the app reads it from your device to remove the background and to let you edit it. Processing happens entirely on your phone. Your photos are never sent to us.

What is stored on your device

Images you save are written to your photo gallery. The app also keeps copies of your last 12 saved images in its private storage so you can find them under "Recent". You can remove them in Settings, and they are deleted when you uninstall the app. Your preferences (such as theme and export quality) are stored on your device.

Permissions

Photos: used only to pick an image you choose and to save your result to your gallery. The app does not browse your library on its own.

Third-party services

On Android, background removal uses Google ML Kit, delivered through Google Play services. The model is downloaded by Google Play services, and Google may collect limited diagnostic and usage information as described in Google's privacy policy (policies.google.com/privacy). On iOS, background removal uses Apple's on-device Vision framework. The Enhance feature runs an AI model that ships inside the app, entirely on your device.

Advertising

The app is free and shows ads from Google AdMob. To show and measure ads, Google may collect information such as your device's advertising ID, IP address, approximate location, and how you interact with ads. Where required (for example in the EEA and UK), we ask for your consent first, and you can change your choice anytime in Settings › Privacy choices. You can also reset or limit your advertising ID in your device settings. Your photos are never shared with ad providers. Learn more at policies.google.com/technologies/ads.

Purchases

Ad-free purchases are processed by Google Play. We use RevenueCat to confirm what you bought and to restore it on a new phone. RevenueCat receives your purchase details and a random app user ID, not your name or email. Learn more at revenuecat.com/privacy.

Usage analytics and app settings

The app uses Google Firebase. Anonymous Authentication gives your install a random user ID, with no name, email or account. Google Analytics for Firebase uses that ID, an app instance ID and basic device information to tell us how the app is used, for example which tools you open, export settings, purchases and errors. Remote Config delivers settings such as how often ads appear. Your photos are never sent to Firebase. Learn more at firebase.google.com/support/privacy.

Children

The app is not directed to children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes

We may update this policy. The date at the top shows when it was last changed.
