App Privacy

The short version: the iPad edition of Ink Gazette collects nothing. It has no network layer at all — nothing you write, draw or solve leaves your iPad.

What we collect: nothing

There is no account and no sign-in, no analytics, no crash reporter, no advertising and no tracking of any kind. The app contains no code that opens a network connection, so there is no channel over which anything could reach us, even by accident.

What stays on your iPad

Your entries, your pencil strokes and how far you got are written into the app’s own folder on the device. Your settings — checking, ink tone, handedness and the rest — are kept beside them. All of it belongs to the app: deleting the app deletes it, and it travels nowhere except in your own device backup, on Apple’s terms rather than ours.

Handwriting

When you write a letter or a digit with the pencil, iPadOS recognises it on the device itself. The strokes are not sent anywhere, and we never see them.

The website is a separate thing

This page is about the iPad app. inkgazette.com is a different product and keeps its own page: what the website stores.

Changes

If the app ever starts doing something that touches your data, this page will say so before that version ships.
