Privacy Policy

Short version

Pink Mark does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. The pages you scan, the text Apple Vision recognizes, and the quote Apple Intelligence extracts all stay on your device. Only the quote you tap Save on is persisted. There are no accounts, no analytics, and no third-party SDKs that contact a server. 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 Mark is published by Danielius Studio LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company at 30 N Gould St, Suite #5280, Sheridan, WY 82801, USA (“we”, “us”).

Camera permission

Pink Mark requires the Camera permission so you can scan book pages with Apple's VisionKit document scanner. iOS will prompt you the first time you tap “Scan a page”. You can revoke the permission at any time in iOS Settings → Pink Mark. The captured page images are kept in memory only while the scanner sheet is open; they are NEVER written to disk and never uploaded.

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 photo library access. The app uses only the live camera, never your existing photos.
• No location, no contacts, no calendar. The app does not request any sensitive iOS permission beyond Camera.

What stays on your device

• Your saved quotes (text + optional source string). 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.
• Whether the day-three gift screen has been acknowledged.

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

On-device language model (Apple Intelligence)

On Apple Intelligence-capable devices (iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 16, or newer), Pink Mark uses the public LanguageModelSession API on iOS 26+ to extract the most striking sentence from the page's OCR text. This model executes on your iPhone's Neural Engine. The recognized text is passed to the model in-process and never leaves the device. The app does not use Apple's Private Cloud Compute fallback.

On older devices, the extraction step is skipped and you trim the quote manually from the recognized text.

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 Mark 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 Mark 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 Mark 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.
