Last Updated: 12/19/2025
Shimmy ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use the Shimmy mobile application.
1. Information We Do Not Collect
Shimmy is designed as a utility tool for dance practice.
- No Personal Data: We do not require you to create an account, nor do we collect your name, email address, or phone number.
- No Video Storage: Videos you import from your Camera Roll or via third-party links are processed locally on your device. We do not upload, store, or share your videos on our servers.
2. Information We Collect Automatically
To improve the app, we may collect limited non-personal information:
- Usage Data: We may use third-party analytics (like Apple App Analytics) to see which features are used most (e.g., how often "Mirror Mode" is toggled) to help us improve the app.
- Crash Reports: We collect anonymized technical logs to fix bugs and improve stability.
3. Third-Party Content
Shimmy allows you to paste links from third-party platforms (such as TikTok or Instagram).
- When you use a link, Shimmy acts as a browser/player. Your interaction with that content is governed by the privacy policy of the respective platform (e.g., TikTok’s Privacy Policy).
- We do not track your browsing history or your social media credentials.
4. Permissions
Shimmy may request the following permissions:
- Photos/Media Library: To allow you to import your own saved videos for practice.
- Network Access: To load videos from the links you provide.
