Privacy Policy

Effective date: 29 October 2026 · Last updated: 29 October 2026

Short version: DICOM Viewer is a local-first iOS app. We do not create accounts, we do not run analytics, and we do not upload your medical images to our servers. Studies stay on your device unless you export or share them yourself.

1. Who we are

This policy describes how Ekrem Apps (“we”, “us”) handles information in the iOS application DICOM Viewer (the “App”). Contact: support.ekremapps@gmail.com.

2. What the App does

The App lets you import, view, measure, reconstruct, and organize DICOM studies on your iPhone or iPad. It is intended for viewing and organizing medical images. It is not a medical device and must not be used for primary diagnosis.

3. Information we do not collect

We do not operate a backend for the App. We do not collect, sell, or share:

Names, email addresses, or other account details (the App has no sign-in)
DICOM files, pixel data, annotations, or patient metadata stored in a study
Advertising identifiers or analytics events
Precise location
Payment card numbers (purchases are processed by Apple)

4. Information that stays on your device

The following is stored locally on your device, under your control:

Imported studies — DICOM files you import from Files, a folder, a ZIP archive, AirDrop, or another app
App library data — exam organization, window/level presets, measurements, and annotations you create
Settings — preferences such as overlay visibility and Face ID app lock

You can delete individual exams or all exams from Settings. Uninstalling the App removes App data stored in the App container.

5. Permissions

Face ID / device biometrics — optional Pro feature used only to lock the App on this device. Biometric data never leaves the device and is processed by Apple’s LocalAuthentication framework. We never see your face or fingerprint.
Photo Library (add only) — used only if you export an image to Photos. We do not read your existing photo library.
Files / document import — used when you choose studies to import. The App accesses only the files you select or that another app sends via Open In / AirDrop.

6. Purchases

Optional Pro features are sold as auto-renewable subscriptions or a lifetime purchase through Apple In-App Purchase. Apple processes the transaction. We receive only the purchase entitlement needed to unlock features (for example, that a subscription is active). We do not receive your Apple ID password or payment method.

Apple’s handling of purchase data is described in Apple’s Privacy Policy.

7. Sharing

If you use Share or AirDrop, the destination you choose receives the content you send. That sharing is initiated by you and is not a transfer to Ekrem Apps.

We do not sell personal information. We do not share App content with advertisers or data brokers.

8. Children

The App is not directed at children under 16 and is not intended as a consumer toy. Do not import another person’s medical images unless you are authorized to view them.

9. International users

Because we do not collect your studies or account data on our servers, there is no international transfer of that data by us. Data you keep in the App remains on your device and in any backups you configure (for example iCloud Device Backup, which is controlled by Apple and your Apple ID settings).

10. Your choices

Do not import a study if you do not want it stored on the device
Delete exams inside the App at any time
Turn Face ID app lock off in Settings
Manage or cancel subscriptions in iOS Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions

11. Changes

We may update this policy. The “Last updated” date at the top will change when we do. Continued use of the App after an update means you accept the revised policy.
