Privacy Policy
Bobblehead Scanner is built to collect as little about you as possible. The app requires no account, and we never ask for your name, email address, or payment details.
Photos you scan
When you scan a bobblehead, the photo is sent over an encrypted connection to our server, which forwards it to Anthropic (our AI provider) to identify the item. Photos are processed in memory and are not stored on our servers. Per Anthropic's commercial API terms, content submitted through the API is not used to train their models. Photo thumbnails shown in your collection are stored only on your device.
Your collection
Your collection — items, values, notes, and photos — is stored on your device. If you subscribe to Pro, the item details in your collection (names, teams, years, values, and notes, but never your photos) are also backed up over an encrypted connection to our server, so your collection can be restored if you reinstall the app or switch to a new phone. The backup is associated with the same random, anonymous identifier used for subscription management and is not linked to your identity.
Purchases
Subscriptions are processed by Apple. We use RevenueCat to manage subscription status using a random, anonymous identifier generated on your device. We do not receive your name, email address, or any payment information.
Scan usage
To enforce free and Pro scan limits, our server stores a count of scans associated with the same anonymous identifier. This identifier is not linked to your identity.
Market pricing
To estimate an item's value, our server sends item search terms (for example, a player name and year) to eBay's API. Your photos and your identity are never shared with eBay.
Analytics and advertising
The app contains no third-party analytics, no advertising, and no trackers.
Children
Bobblehead Scanner is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Data deletion
Deleting the app deletes everything stored on your device. If you subscribed to Pro, your cloud collection backup remains on our server so it can be restored after a reinstall. To request deletion of your cloud backup or the server-side scan counts associated with your device, contact us at the address below.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
