Privacy & Control

Your camera, your habitat, your rules. We believe transparency about data is not optional — it is the foundation.

Our privacy philosophy

You decide what is seen, shared, and stored

EverydayEarth is built around a simple principle: hosts control their own data. We do not sell your images, we do not mine your footage, and we do not share anything you have not explicitly chosen to make public.

Three tiers of visibility

Clear boundaries, no surprises

Only what you explicitly choose to share is visible to others.

  • check_circle Species observations and highlights
  • check_circle Seasonal stories and recaps
  • check_circle General location (region, not address)
  • check_circle Community insights you opt into

What's Never Shared

Some things are never visible to anyone but you. Period.

  • check_circle Your exact address or coordinates
  • check_circle Camera IP addresses or credentials
  • check_circle Raw unprocessed images
  • check_circle Network configuration details
  • check_circle Personal account information

Beyond the basics

Built-in safeguards

  • check_circle Images are processed for wildlife insight, then originals are not retained beyond your chosen window
  • check_circle No facial recognition or human identification is ever performed
  • check_circle You can delete your habitat and all associated data at any time
  • check_circle Private habitats are never indexed, searchable, or visible to other users
  • check_circle We will never sell or share your images with third parties
