Privacy
User Privacy
PhotoSense AI is built with user privacy at its core. By ensuring that all photo data is processed locally within the application, and no data is transferred to external servers, there is no exposure to privacy risks.
PhotoSense has no storage server or whatsoever. It is thus not possible to save your session or photos persistently in the app.
Balancing Privacy with Performance Limitations
While PhotoSense AI prioritizes user privacy by operating locally, this design choice comes with certain limitations. Processing large volumes of photos or high-resolution images can strain system resources, as all operations rely on the device’s available memory and computing power.
This can lead to slower processing times and longer waits for tasks to complete, especially when handling complex operations or large datasets.
PhotoSense AI uses user-defined filters, smart caching, and various viewing resolutions, among others, for speed improvements. While these trade-offs ensure that sensitive user data remains private and secure, they may impact the efficiency of workflows for users with extensive photo collections.
If a session is accidentally destroyed by, for example, a website time-out, all data needs to be processed again. It is therefore advised to limit the number of photos to be processed. Think of a maximum of 300 photos (each ~2MB in size) per session. I did experiment with ~500 iPhone photos (sized between 0.5-2MB) and could process the photos within a couple of minutes.
Balancing between privacy and performance remains a key consideration, with ongoing efforts to optimize processing efficiency while maintaining the highest standards of data protection.
