Privacy Policy
Your privacy is extremely important to us. Pointful (the "App") is designed to be a private, local-first utility. This Privacy Policy describes how Pointful handles your information.
1. Collection of Personal Data
No Personal Data Collected: The developer of Pointful does not collect, store, transmit, or access any of your personal information, contact details, account credentials, or user-generated content.
Local Storage Only: All arguments, structures, points, and settings you create are stored exclusively on your own device using local storage mechanisms (such as AsyncStorage).
The developer has no access to this data and cannot view, edit, or retrieve your arguments.
2. Analytics, Tracking, and Identifiers
No Tracking: Pointful does not use any analytics services, behavioral tracking libraries, or advertising networks.
No Identifiers: We do not collect or use device identifiers (such as IDFA, AAID, or UUIDs) to track your behavior across other apps or websites.
3. Share Feature Data
Pointful includes a feature that allows you to export your structured arguments as static images to share with others.
When you use this sharing feature, the image is generated locally on your device.
No data or image files are uploaded, transmitted, or stored on any external servers owned or controlled by the developer.
Device Permissions: To save these generated argument cards as images to your device's photo gallery, the App requires permission to access your photo library. Depending on your device's operating system, the App may request one of the following permissions:
- photosPermission (Read/Write Access): "Allow Pointful to access your photo library to save your generated argument cards as images to your device."
- savePhotosPermission (Write-only Access): "Allow Pointful to save generated argument cards as images to your photo library."
Local Access Only: These permissions are used exclusively to write the generated card images to your device's photo library. Pointful does not access, read, collect, or transmit any other photos, videos, or files from your device.
4. Third-Party Software Development Kits (SDKs)
Pointful is built using the Expo framework to deliver a cross-platform mobile experience. The following Expo SDKs are integrated into the App:
expo-sharing(handles local file sharing)expo-router(manages in-app navigation)expo-font(loads custom typography)expo-splash-screen(handles the app startup screen)
These packages operate locally on your device to perform standard app functions.
You can review the Expo Privacy Policy to learn more about how they handle information by visiting Expo Privacy Policy.
5. Children's Privacy
Pointful does not knowingly collect, request, or maintain any personal information from children under the age of 13.
Because the App operates entirely locally and does not collect any data from any users, it does not collect or transmit children's personal information.
6. Cookies and Web Tracking
Pointful is a mobile application only.
The App does not use cookies, web beacons, tracking pixels, or other web-based tracking technologies.
7. How to Delete Your Data
Since all of your data is stored locally on your device via AsyncStorage, you have complete control over its deletion.
You can erase all data associated with Pointful at any time by uninstalling the App from your mobile device.
Alternatively, clearing the App's storage or cache through your device's operating system settings will also permanently delete all your locally stored arguments.
