Privacy
Memories in Memories · last updated November 5, 2026
Memories in Memories turns photos into an endless mosaic. This page explains what it keeps about you, where, and how to remove it.
Photos you keep on your device
Photos you add without signing in stay in your own browser. They aren't uploaded anywhere unless you put them on a wall or make a share link. In the iPhone app, they're kept in the app's own storage on your phone, and deleting the app deletes them.
Signing in
Walls and share links need an account, which you make by signing in with Google or with Apple. With Google, the app receives your name, email address and profile picture from Google, and nothing else. It doesn't see your Google password and can't access your Gmail, Drive or contacts. With Apple, it receives your name (the first time you sign in) and your email address, or an Apple relay address if you choose to hide yours.
For each phone or browser you're signed in on, we keep its IP address and which app or browser it is (its user agent) with your account, to keep the account secure, until that phone or browser signs out or you delete your account. Supabase, which runs our sign-in, also keeps a log of sign-ups and sign-ins, with the email address and IP address, for security.
Walls
- A wall's name, the people on it, and the photos and comments added to it are stored so everyone on the wall can see them. Photos are stored as resized copies with their file names and the time they were added, and people on the wall see who added each photo.
- A wall is public or private. Its owner chooses, in People, and can change it at any time (on an iPhone, from version 2.2; before that, on the website). A new wall is public unless whoever makes it switches that off. A new wall made in an older version of the iPhone app starts private, until its owner changes that.
- Walls made before public walls went live on November 5, 2026 became public that day, with all their photos, including the ones people other than the owner added, and they now show on the profile of everyone on them. Their owners can make them private at any time, in People on the website or in the iPhone app from version 2.2, and anyone who added photos can remove their own (see Removing your data). Everyone on those walls who had notifications on was told (see Notifications); someone who had left a wall or been removed from it wasn't, even if their photos were still on it.
- A private wall can be seen only by the people on it.
- A public wall can be seen by anyone who's signed in, and by nobody who isn't: its name, its photos with their file names and the time they were added, who added each one, and who's on it (each person's name and picture, when they joined and how many photos they added, never a whole email address (see Friends for accounts with no name)). It shows on the profile of everyone on it (see Friends), and anyone signed in who has its link can open it. There's no list or search of public walls, but anyone can make a free account, so treat what's on one as open to anyone. Looking at a public wall doesn't put you on it, and nobody on it is told.
- On public and private walls alike, only people invited can join, add photos, comment or see comments.
- When an owner makes a wall public, the photos already on it go with it, including the ones other people added. Everyone else on the wall who has notifications on is told, at most once a day for each wall (see Notifications); someone with notifications off isn't, nor is someone who has left the wall or been removed from it, even if their photos are still on it. The wall's People says whether it's public, and so does its row in Walls (older versions of the iPhone app don't show this). You can remove your photos at any time, or leave the wall and take them with you; photos you leave on it stay public.
- When a wall goes private, nobody else can open it any more. But a photo's web address already issued to someone keeps working for up to a week after that, photos they already saw can stay on their device for longer, and anyone can keep a copy of what they've seen.
- A wall's owner can invite people with the wall's invite link: anyone who has it can join after signing in. The owner can replace the link at any time, and old copies then can't be used to join, though on a public wall anyone signed in who has one can still look at it. Someone signed out who has the invite link sees only the wall's name and its owner's name. The owner can also let everyone on the wall invite people, with the invite link, by email or from their friends.
- When someone invites a person to a wall by email, the invited email address is stored so that person can join. Whoever sent the invitation and the wall's owner see it. The owner sees the email addresses of the people on the wall. Whoever invites an address is told if it's already on the wall or invited already.
- If invitation emails are turned on, the invitation is emailed with the inviter's name and address, the wall's name and its link.
Comments
- Anyone on a wall can comment on the wall or on one of its photos. A comment is kept with who wrote it, when, and the photo it's about, and everyone on the wall sees it with the writer's name and picture. Nobody else sees it: not someone who isn't on the wall, also when the wall is public, and not a share link.
- You don't see comments by people you blocked (on a wall you own too), comments you reported, or comments on photos hidden from you, and the number of comments shown leaves them out too.
- Comments can't be edited. You can delete your own while you're on the wall, and the wall's owner can delete any comment on it. A photo's comments go when the photo is removed, and all of a wall's when the wall is deleted. If you leave a wall or are removed from it, your comments stay on it; after that, only its owner can delete them, or you, by deleting your account.
- A notification about one comment quotes it, up to 100 characters (see Notifications). A notification already sent keeps its quote on the devices it reached, even once the comment is deleted.
- Each person can write 200 comments a day, and a wall can have up to 10,000. For the daily limit we keep, for two days, when you wrote each one.
Friends
- Your profile shows your picture, your name and your friends, with how many you have, to everyone who's signed in, and to nobody who isn't. It never shows your email address. It also lists your walls: to everyone signed in, the public ones you're on, whoever owns them; to someone on a wall with you, that wall too, public or private; and to you, all of them. Each shows its name, its owner's name, how many photos and people it has, its first photo, and whether it's public. A private wall the person looking isn't on never shows. An account that has no name (Apple doesn't always give one) goes by the first part of its email address, on its profile as on walls, so on a public wall anyone signed in can see that part of the address.
- People can find you by your name, or by typing the whole email address your account has, once it's confirmed (with an Apple relay address, only that relay address finds you). A search by address finds only an account with that address and never shows the address, but it does tell whoever searched that an account with it exists. A name that's only the first part of an email address isn't searched. People who share a wall are suggested to each other, and anyone signed in can open the profiles in a friends list.
- A friend request shows the other person your name and picture. If they answer Not now, you aren't told: it still shows to you as sent. Either of you can end a friendship later, and the other isn't told.
- Your friends can invite you to a wall without your email address: the invitation waits for you in Walls, under Invitations, and isn't emailed. It's kept with your address, as every invitation is, but whoever invited you and the wall's owner see only your name and picture. Once you join, the owner sees your address, as for everyone on a wall.
- When you block someone, any friendship between you ends, and so do your friend request to them and your invitations to their account; theirs no longer reaches you, though to them it still looks sent. Apart from that, you then don't see each other in searches, suggestions, friends lists or requests. You still see their name and picture on their profile, with Unblock; to them, your profile looks unavailable, as a deleted account's does, so they may guess that you blocked them. Unblocking brings none of it back.
- Each person can have up to 1,000 friends and 100 friend requests waiting for an answer, and can send 50 friend requests, make 100 searches and open 500 other people's profiles a day. For these limits we keep, for two days, when you searched, sent a request or opened a profile, but not what you searched for or whose profile it was.
Reports and blocks
- When you report a photo, on a wall or in a share link, we keep the report: who reported it, which photo and wall or link, who added it and why, so we can look at it. Every report reaches our moderation queue, and it may be emailed to us too. The person who added the photo isn't told who reported it.
- When you report a comment, we keep the report the same way, with a copy of the comment's words and the wall's name, so we can look at it even once the comment is gone. The comment is hidden from you straight away, and the person who wrote it isn't told who reported it.
- When you block someone, we keep that you blocked them, with their name, picture and email address, until you unblock them, even if they delete their account, so the block still applies if they sign up again. They aren't told. A block also ends a friendship (see Friends).
- You can report a photo on a public wall you aren't on, and block whoever added it, in the same way. A block counts both ways there: if you or the wall's owner blocked the other, you can't see the wall; if you or someone on it blocked the other, you don't see them on it, or the photos they added. So blocking someone also keeps them from seeing your photos on a public wall they aren't on.
Notifications
If you turn notifications on, in the iPhone app or in a browser, you're told when someone else adds photos to a wall you're on or joins it, for example "Alice added 12 photos to “Friends”", when someone else comments on it ("Alice commented on your photo in “Ski”: “Love this!”", which quotes up to 100 characters of the comment), leaves it ("Bob left “Ski”") or deletes it ("Alice deleted “Ski”"), when its owner removes you ("Alice removed you from “Ski”"), when its owner makes it public ("“Friends” is public now: anyone signed in can see it and its photos."), when someone invites you to a wall as a friend, or by your account's email address if you're friends or on a wall together ("Bob invited you to “Ski”"), and when someone asks to be your friend ("Bob wants to be your friend") or accepts your friend request ("Bob accepted your friend request"). A wall going public comes at most once a day for each wall, and reaches you even if you muted that wall or blocked its owner, because it's about who can see your photos and it names nobody. When the walls made before public walls went live became public on November 5, 2026, their owners were told too ("Your wall “Friends” is public now: anyone signed in can see it and its photos. You can make it private in People on the website, or in the app from version 2.2."). For each iPhone where you're signed in and notifications are allowed, and each browser where you turned them on, we keep the address its push service gave it (Apple's for an iPhone; your browser's, which is Google's, Mozilla's, Apple's or Microsoft's), with your account, also while you've turned notifications off, so that turning them on again reaches it. We also keep whether you turned notifications off, which is for all your devices, and which walls you muted. Each notification goes through that push service; a browser's is encrypted so that only your browser can read it. Signing out on an iPhone or in a browser removes its address, and so does the push service saying it no longer works. Deleting your account removes all of it.
Share links
A share link is public: anyone who has the link can look at the photos in it, without signing in. Only the person who made it can change or delete it.
Where it's kept
Accounts, friends, walls, comments, share links and their photos are stored with Supabase, in the United States. The app's pages are served by Vercel; sign-in is handled by Google or Apple, and Supabase; notifications go through Apple's push service or your browser's. Supabase and Vercel handle this data only to run Memories in Memories, under data processing terms that require them to protect it as this page describes; Google, Apple and the push services get only what signing in and notifications need, under their own privacy policies. There are no ads and no tracking or analytics. On the website, the browser keeps your settings and your sign-in session in its own storage. The iPhone app keeps your settings on your phone, and your sign-in in the phone's keychain. On an iPhone without the app, Get the app on the website copies the link you opened, so the app can open it once it's installed: the app reads the clipboard only when you tap Paste, and only to open the link.
How long it's kept
Your account, friends, walls, photos, comments and share links are kept until you remove them or delete your account; your comments on a wall you've left stay until its owner deletes them or the wall, or you delete your account. A friend request is kept until it's accepted or cancelled; one answered Not now and then cancelled is kept until 30 days after that answer, so that asking again before then doesn't reach the person who said Not now. A report stays after the photo, the comment or the wall is gone (a comment's with its copy of the words), without the name of an account that was deleted, and a report that was emailed to us stays in our mailbox. Something you remove can stay in the database's daily backups for up to 7 days, and Supabase keeps its log of sign-ups and sign-ins for up to 7 days.
Removing your data
- While you're on a wall, you can remove your own photos at any time, and you can leave a wall, with or without your photos; a wall you left no longer shows on your profile. If your photos stay on a wall after you leave it or are removed from it, you can remove them while it's public: open it from its link or the profile of someone on it, on the website or in the iPhone app from version 2.2. If you can't open it (it's private, or you or its owner blocked the other), write to us. Removing a photo removes the comments on it too.
- You can delete your own comments while you're on the wall (leaving a wall doesn't delete them), and a wall's owner can delete any comment on it.
- A wall's owner can make a public wall private (see Walls for what can last after that), or delete the wall, which removes all its photos and comments.
- You can delete a share link you made, which removes its photos.
- You can remove a friend, cancel a friend request you sent, or answer Not now to one you got, at any time.
- Photos on your device are removed with "Remove all" in the photo list, or by clearing the site's data in your browser. In the iPhone app, they're removed with "Remove all" in My photos, or by deleting the app.
- You can delete your account at any time: in the iPhone app from the account menu, or on the website in Walls. That deletes the walls you own with all their photos and comments, your photos and comments on other walls, your share links, your friends list, your friend requests and the account itself. Reports you made stay, without your name, so they can still be dealt with. For two days, a note of your email address and of what your account did that day (how many walls, share links, invitations, emails, reports, comments, friend requests, searches and profiles opened) stays, so the daily limits still apply if you sign up again; blocks other people made stay, as above.
