Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 11, 2026

Overview

Parpot is designed with privacy as a core principle. The App operates entirely offline and does not collect, transmit, or store any personal data on external servers. Your data stays on your device.

Data Collection

We do NOT collect:

  • Personal information (name, email, phone number)
  • Usage analytics or tracking data
  • Code snippets or project content
  • Camera or photo library content
  • Location data
  • Device identifiers

Local Data Storage

All data created within the App (projects, code snippets, settings) is stored locally on your device using the app's sandboxed storage. This data is not accessible to other apps and is not transmitted to any server.

Camera and Photo Library

The App requests camera and photo library permissions for the following purposes:

  • Camera: Used for QR code scanning and OCR text recognition. Images are processed on-device and are not stored or transmitted.
  • Photo Library: Used to select images for OCR text recognition. Selected images are processed on-device only.

All image processing (OCR) is performed locally using the device's built-in Vision framework. No images or recognized text are sent to external services.

WiFi Transfer

The WiFi transfer feature creates a temporary local web server on your device within your local network. Data is transferred directly between your device and your computer over your local WiFi network. No data passes through external servers. The server is active only while the transfer screen is open.

Text-to-Speech

Text-to-speech functionality uses the device's built-in speech synthesis engine. No text is sent to external servers for speech processing. All speech synthesis occurs on-device.

Third-Party Services

Parpot does not integrate with any third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking services. The App does not contain ads and does not share data with third parties.

Data Deletion

You can delete your data at any time by:

  • Deleting individual projects or snippets within the App
  • Uninstalling the App, which removes all associated data from your device

Children's Privacy

The App does not knowingly collect any information from children. Since no personal data is collected from any user, the App is safe for users of all ages.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
