Vellore — Watch Collection

Last updated: July 10, 2026

Overview

Vellore is designed with privacy in mind. Your collection data stays on your device and in your personal iCloud account, and we run no analytics, advertising, or tracking of any kind. The one exception is the optional Vellore AI features: when you choose to use them, the information needed for your request is sent to Google to generate a result, as described below.

Data Storage

All data you enter into Vellore — including your watch collection, wear logs, service records, accuracy readings, photos, wishlist items, and app settings — is stored locally on your device and synced to your personal iCloud account via Apple's CloudKit service.

Your collection data is not stored on our servers or accessible to us. The optional Vellore AI features are the only part of the app that sends data off your device, and only to process your request (see Vellore AI below).

iCloud Sync

If you have iCloud enabled on your device, Vellore uses Apple's CloudKit to sync your data across your devices. This data is stored in your personal iCloud account and is governed by Apple's privacy policy. You can disable iCloud sync for Vellore in your device's iCloud settings at any time.

Vellore AI (Optional)

Vellore includes optional AI features, such as Style Me, Populate Specs, Wishlist Advisor, and other collection insights. When you choose to use one of these features, Vellore sends the information needed for that request to Google to generate a result. Depending on the feature, this may include a photo you provide (for example an outfit or a watch) and details about the relevant watches in your collection, such as brand, model, reference number, and specifications.

These requests are handled through Google's Firebase AI Logic and processed by Google's Gemini models. The data is used only to generate your result and is returned to your device. It is not used to train Google's models (Vellore uses the paid Gemini API), and Vellore does not store it on any server of its own. Google's handling of this data is governed by Google's privacy policy.

To protect this service from abuse, Vellore uses Firebase App Check, which verifies that requests come from a genuine copy of the app. This does not collect personal information. You can avoid sending any data to Google by simply not using the AI features.

Data Collection

Vellore does not collect:

  • Personal information (name, email, phone number)
  • Location data
  • Usage analytics or behavioral data
  • Device identifiers for tracking purposes
  • Any data from other apps on your device

Third-Party Services

Vellore does not integrate any third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking services. It uses Apple's StoreKit to process purchases, and Google's Firebase (Firebase AI Logic and App Check) solely to power the optional AI features described above. Firebase Analytics is not used. These services are governed by Apple's and Google's respective privacy policies.

In-App Purchases

Vellore offers a one-time lifetime Pro upgrade, an auto-renewing Vellore AI subscription (monthly or yearly), and one-time AI token packs. All purchases are processed entirely through Apple's App Store; we do not receive or store any payment information.

Photos

Photos you add to your watch collection are stored on your device and in your iCloud account. Vellore accesses your photo library only when you explicitly choose to add a photo. Photos are not transmitted to us. If you use an AI feature that relies on a photo (such as Style Me), that photo is sent to Google to generate your result, as described in Vellore AI above.

Children's Privacy

Vellore does not knowingly collect information from children under 13. The app does not require an account and does not collect personal data from any user.

Data Deletion

You can delete all your data at any time from within the app via Settings. Uninstalling the app removes all locally stored data. To remove iCloud data, use your device's iCloud storage settings.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected on this page with an updated date.
