Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 25, 2026
1. Local-First Processing
Kepper is designed as a native macOS application that operates locally on your machine. All photo analysis, metadata extraction, and burst grouping are performed using your Mac's CPU, GPU, and Neural Engine. Your original RAW and JPEG files never leave your computer during standard operation.
2. Optional AI Training Samples
You may choose to participate in our AI improvement program. If you explicitly opt-in within the application settings, Kepper may securely upload small, anonymized samples of your culling decisions and low-resolution image previews to help us improve our machine learning models for the community. This is entirely optional and can be disabled at any time.
3. Application Analytics
We use Vercel Analytics to collect anonymous information about how the Kepper website is used. Within the Mac application, we may collect anonymous crash reports and basic usage statistics (e.g., number of photos imported) to help us identify bugs and improve performance. We do not collect any personally identifiable information (PII).
4. Email Capture
If you provide your email address to download Kepper, we use it solely to send you the download link and provide critical updates about the software. We do not sell or share your email address with third parties.
5. Contact
