THE Tether is provided by haryun song. This policy applies to iPhone, iPad, Mac and Android.
THE Tether does not require users to create an account.
Photo files are saved to the device storage, external storage or folders selected by the user. THE Tether does not automatically upload user photos to its servers.
Camera communication is used for local connection, camera control and photo transfer over Wi-Fi with supported cameras. Available features depend on the camera model, firmware and supported connection method.
When using Match RAW from Card, the app scans the folder selected by the user and links matching RAW files by filename. Matched RAW files are copied only when exporting.
Android subscriptions are purchased through Google Play Billing. Google Play handles payments and subscription transactions. THE Tether does not receive full payment-card details from Google Play.
Google Play purchase tokens and subscription status are used to verify purchases, confirm access to subscription features and help prevent misuse. A purchase token identifies a Google Play purchase; it is not a credit-card number.
Google Play Integrity provides app and device integrity checks to help validate legitimate requests and prevent fraud, abuse and unauthorized access.
You can generate a diagnostic report locally and choose whether to send it to support. Generating a report does not automatically upload it to support. If you send a report or contact us by email, the report, your email address and message are used to investigate the issue and respond to your request.
Photos and session data remain in the storage you select until you remove them. Copies saved or exported outside the app must be managed separately. Support messages and reports you send are used for troubleshooting and related replies. You can ask about information held by THE Tether or request its deletion using the support email below.
Google Play manages its own payment and subscription records under Google's policies. Deleting the app does not cancel a subscription or delete Google Play purchase records. Manage subscriptions through Google Play. Email providers handle support correspondence under their own policies.
