Privacy Policy

Updated 3 October 2026 · Afterglow by Axons One, Australia.

Afterglow processes app content on your device, with the storage, system services and sharing choices described below. There is no app account, advertising or tracking. Website visits, messages you send us and Apple services are explained separately.

Photos, projects and branding

Afterglow (the Before / After reel maker) processes the photos you select, your logo, business name, phone number, labels and reel settings on your iPhone. The system photo picker provides only the items you select; rendering does not upload them to Axons One. Original photos are not modified. The app keeps the 20 most recent projects and removes the oldest project when you create another.

Backups and exported reels

Project photo folders are excluded from device backups in the current app. Brand settings and project metadata may be included in an iCloud or computer backup according to your settings; do not rely on a device backup to preserve editable projects. A reel can be saved to Photos, with permission, or shared using the iOS share sheet. Photos syncing, device backups and the destination you choose may transfer copies off the device under their own policies.

Delete and control your content

Use the project menu on the Reels screen to delete a project. Settings → Your brand lets you clear the visible brand fields. To remove all app-local files, including stored logo files, delete the app in iOS Settings; offloading the app keeps its data. Delete original photos, exported reels and backups separately where they are stored. Removing content does not remove your App Store purchase.

Apple purchases and diagnostics

Apple processes App Store payments and restores purchases. The app uses StoreKit purchase and entitlement information; Axons One does not receive your card details. Apple may make transaction and sales information available to us under its developer services. If you choose to share diagnostics with developers, Apple may provide crash and usage diagnostics. We do not install a separate advertising, analytics or crash-reporting SDK. Manage diagnostic sharing in Settings → Privacy & Security → Analytics & Improvements. Apple describes its services in its Privacy Policy.

Website and support information

These pages are hosted by Cloudflare. Website requests expose information such as IP address, browser information, requested page and time to the hosting provider for delivery, security and reliability. We do not add advertising trackers or analytics scripts. If you submit a support or waiting-list form, the email or phone number you enter and your message are sent to the Axons One contact service hosted on Vercel, and handled through our support communications services so we can respond or provide the launch update you requested. App content is not automatically attached. Service providers may process information outside your country, including outside Australia. See Cloudflare’s privacy policy and Vercel’s privacy policy.

Retention and your requests

Local app content remains until you remove it, subject to the app-specific retention described above. Our policy is to delete support correspondence within 12 months after the request is resolved, unless needed for a continuing issue, legal obligation or dispute. Waiting-list contact details are kept until the requested launch update has been sent or you ask to be removed. Hosting, delivery logs and backup copies follow the relevant providers’ retention processes; deletion is not necessarily immediate from backups. You can request access, correction, deletion, withdrawal from launch updates or raise a privacy concern through Support or the Axons One contact page. We may need to verify your request. We cannot remotely retrieve or erase content held only on your device, in your Apple Account, or by recipients you chose.

Children and policy changes

Afterglow is not directed to children under 13. Please do not send children’s personal information through support or waiting-list forms. Contact us if you believe it has been provided so we can address it. Changes to this policy will be posted here with an updated date.
