Clobe · Last updated 12 September 2026
Clobe is a wardrobe app. You photograph or film the clothes you already own, and it suggests outfits from them. This page explains exactly what we collect, what we do with it, and who else sees it. It is written to be read, not to be survived.
To recognise your clothes, draw clean pictures of them, build your avatar and show outfits on it, Clobe sends your photographs and videos to Google's Gemini API. That includes pictures of your garments, the photos you provide of yourself, and a cropped image of your face. Nothing is sent until you have agreed to it in the app, and you can stop at any time by deleting your account.
Clobe is operated by Hemanth Raj Garlapati. For anything on this page, write to theclobeapp@gmail.com.
| What | Why |
|---|---|
| Your email address | To create your account and sign you in. If you use Sign in with Apple or Google, we receive the address that service gives us — including a private relay address, if you chose to hide yours. |
| Your first name | So the app can address you. Optional beyond that. |
| Photographs of your clothes | To identify each garment, its colour, pattern and type, and to draw a clean picture of it. |
| Videos of your wardrobe | An alternative to photographing each item. We extract still frames and identify the garments in them. |
| Photographs of you | Only if you choose to build an avatar. We use them to generate a likeness, and we keep a cropped image of your face so later pictures look like you. |
| Your wardrobe data | Garment types, colours, what you wore and when, outfits you saved. This is the app. |
| Approximate location | Only to fetch your local weather, so suggestions suit the day. See below. |
| How you use the app | Which screens you open, which features you use, and crashes — so we can fix what is broken. |
If you allow it, we ask your device for an approximate position — not a precise one — and send those coordinates to Open-Meteo to look up the current weather. We never store your location. It is used for that one request and discarded. If you refuse the permission, the app works; it simply stops adjusting for weather.
| Who | What they get |
|---|---|
| Google (Gemini API) | Your garment photos, wardrobe videos, the photos you provide of yourself, and your face crop — sent so they can be identified, drawn and rendered. Google states that data sent through the paid Gemini API is not used to train its models. |
| Supabase | Your account, your wardrobe data and your images. They store it; they do not use it. |
| Contabo | Hosts the server that does the processing. It is located in Missouri, in the United States. |
| PostHog | Usage events and crash reports, linked to your user ID and email. No photographs, and no wardrobe contents. |
| Open-Meteo | Approximate coordinates, at the moment a forecast is fetched. Nothing else, and nothing identifying. |
| Apple or Google | If you subscribe, your payment is handled entirely by the app store. We never see your card details. |
We do not sell your data, and we never will. We do not share it with advertisers, and there is no advertising in Clobe.
On servers in the United States. If you are using Clobe from another country, your information is transferred there and processed there.
For as long as your account exists. You can delete your account from inside the app, under Profile. Deleting it removes your garments, your photographs, your avatar and your history from our database and our file storage. Some of it may persist for a short period in routine backups before those expire.
Anonymous usage statistics — counts and timings with no photographs and no wardrobe contents — may be kept after deletion.
You may also ask us for a copy of your data, or ask us to correct it, by writing to theclobeapp@gmail.com.
Clobe is not intended for anyone under 13, and we do not knowingly collect anything from a child. If you believe a child has created an account, write to us and we will remove it.
Your images live in private storage that only your own account can read, enforced by the database itself rather than by our code. Traffic between the app and our server is encrypted. No system is perfect, and we will tell you promptly if something happens that affects you.
If we change this policy in a way that matters, we will tell you in the app before it takes effect. The date at the top always reflects the current version.
