App Privacy label Developer-reported · checked November 1, 2026
No Details Provided

The developer has not provided privacy details on the App Store.

Short answer

There is no privacy label to judge yet. Compress Video's developer has not provided privacy details on the App Store, so nothing is disclosed about collection, linking or tracking. Treat permissions carefully and check the privacy policy before you add anything personal.

Without a label you cannot tell how tracking data would be used. Declining costs you nothing: apps must work without tracking permission.

A permission is what the app can reach on your iPhone; the label is what the developer says leaves it. They answer different questions.

Reading the label

What Compress Video's label means for you

Compress Video's App Store page shows “No Details Provided”. Apple requires a privacy label when a developer submits an update, so this usually means the app has not been updated since labels became mandatory in December 2020, or the developer has not completed the form. It does not mean the app collects nothing, and it does not mean it collects everything: it means there is no statement to hold the developer to.

Until a label appears, your iPhone's permission prompts are the most reliable signal. Every time Compress Video asks for photos, location, contacts, the microphone or tracking, you can say no and see whether the feature you need still works.

Video storage apps upload large personal files, often including faces and voices of other people. Check upload settings over cellular, who can access shared videos and how to delete a video from the server, not just the app.

Utilities range from calculators to VPNs, so their labels vary more than any other category. A simple tool that collects identifiers and usage data for tracking is a sign of advertising SDKs.

On your iPhone

Settings to check for Compress Video

  1. 1

    Photos

    Settings › Privacy & Security › Photos. Limited Access lets you pick exactly which pictures the app can see; Add Photos Only lets it save without reading your library.

  2. 2

    Lock the app

    On iOS 18 and later, touch and hold the icon and choose Require Face ID. Anyone who picks up your unlocked phone then needs your face, fingerprint or passcode to open it.

  3. 3

    Notifications

    Settings › Notifications › Compress Video › Show Previews: When Unlocked keeps message and account details off the Lock Screen.

Cross-app tracking

Does Compress Video track you?

Not disclosed

Without a label there is no tracking statement to rely on. You can still refuse tracking at the iOS prompt.

iOS 18 and later

Lock Compress Video behind Face ID

  1. Find Compress Video on your Home Screen or in App Library.
  2. Touch and hold the icon until the quick-actions menu opens.
  3. Tap Require Face ID (or Require Touch ID / Require Passcode, depending on your iPhone).
  4. Tap Require Face ID again to confirm. Compress Video now asks for authentication every time it opens.

The lock is an iPhone feature, so it works whether or not Compress Video has a passcode of its own. It does not change what the app sends to its developer.

Read with care

What the label cannot tell you

  • A label is self-reported. Apple publishes the developer's answers and can reject apps that misrepresent them, but it does not independently verify what Compress Video sends.
  • It does not say where data is stored, how long it is kept, whether it is encrypted, or which companies receive it. The privacy policy covers those points.
  • Optional data counts: if a feature lets you add something (a profile photo, a phone number), the type is listed even if you never use the feature.
  • Data handled only on your iPhone is not 'collected', so a no-collection label is compatible with an app that reads your files locally.
  • Third-party sign-in, payment processors and SDKs are supposed to be included, but a label can lag behind a new version.

The question to ask Compress Video's developer: When I delete a video, is it deleted from the server too?

Quick quiz

True or false?

  1. Q1“No Details Provided” means Compress Video collects no data.
    Right.
    Not quite.

    It means the developer has not filled in the label. Collection is unknown, not zero.

  2. Q2Apple tests every app to confirm its privacy label is accurate.
    Right.
    Not quite.

    Labels are self-reported by developers. Apple can reject or remove apps that misrepresent practices, but it does not audit each label.

  3. Q3An app with a “Data Not Collected” label cannot read any of your photos.
    Right.
    Not quite.

    It can read photos you give it access to. Processing on your device is not collection; only data sent off the phone counts.

  4. Q4Data “Not Linked to You” is never sent off your iPhone.
    Right.
    Not quite.

    It is collected and sent; the developer says it is de-identified rather than tied to your account or device.

  5. Q5Tapping “Ask App Not to Track” can stop an app from working.
    Right.
    Not quite.

    Apple's rules require apps to work the same whether or not you allow tracking.

Compress Video privacy FAQ

Is Compress Video safe to use?

Who makes Compress Video?
叮咚 康, according to the App Store. It was first released in July 2018 and the current version is 1.6.
Can I lock Compress Video with Face ID?
On iOS 18 or later, touch and hold Compress Video's icon and choose Require Face ID (or Touch ID / Passcode). This is an iPhone feature and works for most downloaded apps, whether or not the app has its own lock. If you don't see the option, update iOS.
How does Compress Video compare with other video storage apps?
Across 108 video storage apps with labels in our snapshot, 72% declare tracking and 14% say they collect no data. Compress Video has no label to compare.
When I delete a video, is it deleted from the server too?
The privacy label cannot answer that. Look for it in Compress Video's privacy policy or support pages, linked from the App Store listing. Check upload settings over cellular, who can access shared videos and how to delete a video from the server, not just the app.
How do I delete my data from Compress Video?
Apps that let you create an account must also let you start account deletion from inside the app (an App Store rule since June 2022). Deleting the app from your iPhone alone does not delete data already sent to the developer.
