Privacy Policy for RollSketch
Effective date: July 7, 2026 (last updated: October 13, 2026)
This Privacy Policy explains how the mobile application RollSketch (“the App”, “we”, “us”) collects, uses, and protects your information. By using the App, you agree to the practices described here.
You can use most of the App — drawing, saving sketches locally, adjusting settings, and creating time-lapse recordings — without creating an account. Some optional features — backing up your saved sketches to the cloud and syncing them across your devices, a profile, and custom colors for the drawing toy — require you to sign in.
1. Information We Collect
a. Account information
When you choose to sign in, we use Sign in with Apple or Google Sign-In. Through these services we receive an account identifier and, depending on your settings, an email address (Apple may provide a private relay email). We use this only to create and authenticate your account.
b. Profile information
If you create a profile, we store the information you provide:
- a username (your account ID),
- an optional display name, and
- an avatar image — either an automatically generated identicon or a photo you choose to upload.
c. Sketches backed up to the cloud
While you are signed in, the sketches you save (including the stroke timing used for time-lapse playback) are automatically backed up to our server and synced across the devices where you sign in with the same account. Backed-up sketches are private to your account and are not visible to other users. Sketches you save while signed out are stored only on your device.
d. Photo library access
With your permission, the App accesses your device’s photo library to:
- let you select a photo for your profile avatar, and
- save exported time-lapse GIFs to your library.
We only access photos you explicitly select or save. We do not scan or upload your photo library.
e. Device identifier
The App creates a random identifier for your device and stores it in the device’s secure storage (Keychain). When the App starts or returns to the foreground, it sends this identifier, the App version, and the platform to our server, together with your account ID if you are signed in. We use this only to keep the service secure — for example, to stop a device or account that abuses the service from using online features (sign-in and cloud backup) — and to tell you when an update is required. It is not used for advertising or tracking and is not shared with third parties. When you delete your account, the link between this identifier and your account is removed.
f. On-device settings
Preferences such as pen sensitivity, dot size, language, and custom colors are stored locally on your device and are not transmitted to us.
g. Information we do NOT collect
The App contains no advertising, no third-party analytics, and no tracking SDKs. We do not track you across other apps or websites.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information above to:
- authenticate you and maintain your account,
- display your profile, and back up and sync your saved sketches,
- provide the features you request (e.g., saving GIFs, choosing an avatar), and
- keep the service secure and functioning (including restricting online features for devices or accounts that abuse the service), and
- notify you when an App update is required.
We do not sell your personal information.
3. Third-Party Services
The App relies on the following third parties, each with its own privacy policy:
- Supabase — hosts our backend, authentication, database, and file storage for accounts, profiles, and synced content.
- Apple (Sign in with Apple) — authentication.
- Google (Google Sign-In) — authentication.
- DiceBear (api.dicebear.com) — generates default avatar images. Your device requests these images directly, which may expose your IP address to the service.
- Google Fonts (fonts.gstatic.com) — supplies a display font. Your device may fetch the font, which may expose your IP address to the service.
4. Sharing
We share your information only:
- with the service providers listed above, to operate the App; and
- where required by law.
The App currently has no public or social features: your profile and backed-up sketches are not shown to other users. When you share a drawing or GIF using your device’s share sheet, it is sent only to the app or person you choose.
5. Data Retention and Account Deletion
We keep your account data while your account is active. You can delete your account at any time from Settings → Account → Delete Account. Deleting your account removes your account, your profile information (username and display name), and the sketches backed up to the cloud from our systems. Sketches saved on your device are not deleted by account deletion; they are removed when you delete them in the App or delete the App.
6. Children’s Privacy
People of all ages, including children, can use the App’s drawing features without an account. Signing in (creating an account) is intended only for users who are at least the age required by your local law (for example, 13 in the U.S.); we do not knowingly collect personal information such as an email address or profile from children under that age. Without signing in, the App only sends the random device identifier described in section 1-e, which is used solely to keep the service secure and to check whether an update is required, and is not used for advertising or tracking. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, please contact us so we can remove it.
7. Security
We use industry-standard measures, including encrypted (HTTPS) connections, to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
8. International Data Transfers
Your information may be processed and stored on servers located outside your country of residence. By using the App, you consent to such transfers.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the “Effective date” above. Continued use of the App after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
