Privacy Policy

1. Who We Are

DoodlePlot ("the App") is operated by MaplePlot Inc., a Canadian corporation in Ontario ("we" or "us"). We handle information in line with Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and other laws that apply.

2. What Is Kept on Your Device

The App doesn't ask for a name, email or password. Drawings, progress, favourites and settings are stored on your device, and we don't keep a copy on our servers. The camera's live view for tracing is shown on screen and is not designed to be recorded or sent anywhere. A photo of a finished drawing that you choose to save is kept on your device.

3. What Leaves Your Device

• Usage analytics and crash reports: which features are used, and details of crashes such as the device model and system version. We don't link them to a name or email. You can turn usage analytics off in Settings; crash reports help keep the App working.
• Template downloads: when the App downloads picture packs, our servers see your IP address, as websites generally do.
• Purchases: handled by Apple or Google and our purchase provider, RevenueCat, which uses a random identifier to know whether Pro is unlocked. We don't receive card details.
• App checks: signals from Apple and Google that help us confirm requests come from the real App.

"Draw your photo" is designed to turn a photo into an outline on your device, without uploading it. The App does not ask for your location or contacts, and it is set up not to use advertising identifiers. There are no ads in the App. Earlier versions offered optional AI features that sent a chosen photo or words to OpenAI and Google's Gemini AI to make a picture. Current versions don't include them, and we are switching them off in earlier versions too.

4. Who Receives It

Google (Firebase analytics and crash reports), Cloudflare (our servers), Apple, Google Play and RevenueCat (purchases), and, for the AI features in earlier versions, OpenAI and Google. We may also disclose information where the law requires it, or to a new owner if the App is sold. We don't sell personal information.

5. Children and Families

DoodlePlot is made for families, and a grown-up should set it up. The App is designed not to ask anyone, including children, for personal information. If you believe a child has given us personal information, contact us and we will take steps to delete it.

6. How Long We Keep It and How to Delete It

Drawings and settings are kept on your device until you reset the App in Settings or uninstall it. Our providers keep analytics and crash data for their usual periods. To ask us to delete information we hold, see our Delete Your Data page.

7. Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to ask about, correct or delete personal information we hold, to withdraw consent, or to object to how we use it. In California, the App does not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising. In the EEA and the UK, MaplePlot Inc. is the controller: we rely on our legitimate interest to keep the App stable and secure, on your consent for usage analytics, and on providing the purchases you ask for. You can complain to your local data protection authority.

8. International Transfers

We are based in Canada, and our providers may process data in other countries, including the United States, under safeguards they offer, such as the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses.

9. Changes and Contact

We may update this policy. Changes are posted here with a new date, and for a material change we will take reasonable steps to let you know in the App. Questions or requests: contact@doodleplot.com.
