Privacy Policy

Last updated: February 10, 2026

Overview

Wardrowbe is a self-hosted wardrobe management application. Your privacy is fundamental to how we designed this product. When you self-host Wardrowbe, your data stays on your own server. When using our hosted service, we collect only what is necessary to provide the service.

Data We Collect

Account Information

  • Email address (from your identity provider)
  • Display name
  • Profile picture URL (if provided by your identity provider)

Wardrobe Data

  • Photos of clothing items you upload
  • Clothing metadata (type, color, brand, notes) — partially generated by AI analysis of your photos
  • Outfit suggestions and your feedback on them
  • Style preferences you configure

Location Data

  • Approximate location (city-level) if you opt in, used solely for weather-based outfit suggestions

Device Information

  • Push notification tokens (if you enable notifications), used only to deliver outfit suggestions

How We Use Your Data

  • Clothing photos are analyzed by AI to automatically tag attributes (type, color, pattern, material). Photos are stored on the server and never shared with third parties.
  • Location data is used exclusively to fetch local weather for outfit suggestions. We do not track your movements.
  • Style preferences and feedback improve the AI recommendation engine for your account only.
  • Push tokens are used solely to send outfit suggestion notifications at your configured schedule.

AI Processing

Wardrowbe uses AI models to analyze clothing photos and generate outfit suggestions. When self-hosted, you choose your own AI provider (Ollama, OpenAI, or any compatible API). On our hosted service, photos are sent to our configured AI provider for analysis. We do not use your photos or data to train AI models.

Data Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties. Your wardrobe data is only accessible to you and members of your family group (if you create or join one).

Data Retention & Deletion

Your data is retained as long as your account is active. You can delete your account at any time from the app settings. Account deletion permanently removes all your data including:

  • All clothing items and photos
  • All outfit history and feedback
  • Style preferences and AI learning data
  • Notification settings and schedules
  • Your user profile

Deletion is immediate and irreversible.

Self-Hosted Instances

When you self-host Wardrowbe, all data remains on your own infrastructure. You are responsible for the security and privacy of your own instance. This privacy policy applies to our hosted service at app.wardrowbe.com. Self-hosted users should create their own privacy policy as appropriate.

Security

All communication is encrypted via HTTPS. Authentication is handled through your identity provider (OIDC/OAuth). We do not store passwords. API access is secured with JWT tokens.

Children

Wardrowbe is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 13.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated date. Continued use of the service after changes constitutes acceptance.
