Privacy Policy

Short version

Pink Inkling gives you a daily writing prompt generated by Apple's on-device Foundation Models, a full-screen handwriting canvas, and a time-lapse replay of your writing. Every entry, every prompt, and every time-lapse video stays on your device through on-device SwiftData. There are no accounts, no analytics, and no third-party SDKs. The only network calls the app makes are to Apple's StoreKit when you choose to subscribe or unlock the Lifetime tier.

Who we are

Pink Inkling is published by Danielius Studio LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company at 30 N Gould St, Suite #5280, Sheridan, WY 82801, USA (“we”, “us”).

Data we do NOT collect

• No account, no email, no password — the app has no signup.
• No analytics, no telemetry, no event tracking.
• No advertising identifiers (no IDFA, no fingerprinting).
• No usage data sent off the device.
• No handwriting data or prompt text leaves the device. Foundation Models runs entirely on-device.
• No microphone, no camera, no photos.
• No location, no contacts, no calendar.
• No HealthKit, no Health data.

iOS permissions used

None. Pink Inkling requests no iOS permissions at any point. There is no permission prompt during onboarding or anywhere else in the app.

What stays on your device

• Your inkling entries: the daily prompt text, the PencilKit drawing data, the time-lapse MP4 filename, the writing duration, and the stroke count. Stored in on-device SwiftData.
• The date the app was first launched (used to time the three-day no-strings free window). Stored in UserDefaults.

All of the above lives on your device and never leaves it. Uninstalling the app deletes it.

Free vs Pro

The Free tier lets you save up to three entries lifetime. Pink Inkling Pro unlocks unlimited entries, the full year book, and the Lock Screen widget. Pro is offered as a Monthly subscription, an Annual subscription, or a one-time Lifetime unlock.

In-app purchases

If you choose to subscribe (Monthly, Annual) or buy the Lifetime unlock, that transaction is handled by Apple's StoreKit. Apple processes the payment and shares only the receipt with the app so we can verify your entitlement. We never see your card number, billing address, or any personal information beyond Apple's opaque transaction identifier.

Subscription receipts are stored on-device by iOS and used to validate your entitlement when you re-open the app. They are not sent to any server we operate.

Family Sharing

Pink Inkling Pro purchases (Monthly, Annual, Lifetime) are Family-Shareable through Apple's standard Family Sharing mechanism. Apple handles eligibility checks; we do not see who is in your family group.

Children

Pink Inkling is rated 4+ in the App Store. Because the app collects no data at all, it complies with COPPA and similar children's-privacy regulations by design.

Your rights

Because Pink Inkling does not collect data, there is nothing for us to export, correct, or delete on your behalf. To revoke all access and remove all on-device state, simply delete the app.

Changes

If we ever introduce a feature that involves any data leaving the device (for example, cloud sync), this page will be updated and the “Last updated” date at the top will change. For v1.0, no such feature exists.
