IRIS Cam Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 10, 2026

IRIS Cam is an iPhone app made by House of Handle LLC. It works together with IRIS Create, a Mac app for students of IRIS Creator Academy. This page explains what IRIS Cam does with your information.

The short version. Your videos stay on your iPhone and your own Mac. IRIS Cam has no account, no ads, no analytics and no tracking, and it does not send your videos to us or to anyone else.

What IRIS Cam uses on your iPhone

• Camera and microphone, to record the shots you plan. Your clips are saved inside the app on your iPhone.
• Local Network, to find your Mac on the same Wi-Fi (or your iPhone's Personal Hotspot) and send your clips to it. Clips travel directly from your iPhone to your Mac over an encrypted connection. They do not pass through the internet or our servers.
• Photos, only if you turn on "Also save takes to Photos". Then a copy of each clip is saved to your Photos library.
• Speech recognition, to find your spoken lines in a clip. This runs on your iPhone only and is never sent to a server.
• Free storage space, checked so the app can warn you before your iPhone is too full to film.

What IRIS Cam sends, and to where

• When you pair, your iPhone's name is sent to your own Mac so IRIS Create can show which phone is connected.
• Your clips are sent only to the Mac you paired with by scanning its code.
• From your Mac, IRIS Cam receives your shot list, IRIS's written notes for each shot, and IRIS's voice notes. These play on your iPhone when you tap "Hear it from IRIS".

IRIS Create on your Mac

IRIS Create keeps your videos on your Mac, and turns speech in your clips into text on your Mac. It contacts IRIS Creator Academy only for these things:

• Your purchase key, to switch IRIS Create on, check for updates and sign you in to your course.
• Your agreement to the terms, with the date and version you agreed to.
• IRIS's voice notes. IRIS Create sends the written text of each shot note (never your video or audio). The Academy turns it into speech using ElevenLabs and keeps the audio for up to 90 days, so playing a note again costs nothing.
• Help requests, only when you press "Something's wrong": what you wrote and basic details about your Mac. Never your videos, scripts or Brand.

IRIS's editing runs through Claude on your Mac, under your own Claude account. To understand and edit your videos, IRIS sends Anthropic still frames from your clips, the text of what's said in them, and what you type to her. That is covered by Anthropic's privacy policy, and we never see it.

Deleting your data

Deleting IRIS Cam deletes every clip saved inside the app. Clips already on your Mac stay there until you delete them. Copies saved to Photos stay in Photos.

TestFlight

While IRIS Cam is in testing, Apple's TestFlight may share crash reports and any feedback you choose to send with us, as described in Apple's TestFlight terms.

Adults only

IRIS Cam is for adults. We don't knowingly collect information from anyone under 18.
