Zwoosh!
Privacy Policy
Last updated: February 10, 2026
Summary
- We do not operate our own backend servers for user data. The Pockets and Activities data are stored locally on your device and in your private iCloud via Apple’s CloudKit.
- We do not sell personal data and we do not show ads.
- We collect limited analytics signals via TelemetryDeck to understand app usage and improve our app. These signals are not tied to your identity.
- Children may use the app in “child” mode with parental sharing control. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children beyond what is necessary to operate the app.
Data We Collect
1) App Data You Create
- Pockets and Activities: Stored locally on your device using on‑device storage and, if you choose to share Pockets, in your private iCloud via Apple CloudKit. We do not have access to this data.
- Sharing Metadata: When you enable sharing, the app manages share records and URLs via CloudKit. These are used solely to facilitate private sharing between devices you authorize.
2) App Settings and Preferences
Examples: Parent/child mode, theme, UI preferences, and related toggles. These are stored on your device (e.g., UserDefaults).
3) Support Communications (User‑Initiated)
If you email support (e.g., via the app’s “Contact Support”), your message may include your device model, iOS version, and app version to help us troubleshoot. Emails are stored in our email inbox and are not shared with third‑party help desk systems.
4) Analytics (TelemetryDeck)
- We use TelemetryDeck to collect usage signals (e.g., which screens are used) to help us improve our app. We do not log more than is visible in the code (e.g., event names and minimal parameters like a link label).
- TelemetryDeck uses privacy‑respecting methods (e.g., hashing) to avoid tying signals to your identity. We do not attempt to identify you through these signals.
How We Use Data
- Provide and improve app functionality (e.g., Pockets management, UI customization).
- Facilitate private sharing of Pockets via your iCloud.
- Respond to support requests.
- Understand feature usage and app performance via analytics.
Data Sharing and Disclosure
- We do not sell personal data.
- We do not share Pockets or Activities content with third parties. Sharing of Pockets is handled privately within your iCloud via CloudKit. We and our infrastructure do not have access to your shared content.
- Analytics signals are processed by TelemetryDeck as our analytics provider. TelemetryDeck’s processing is limited to analytics and does not identify you personally.
- Support emails are handled via email only; we do not use a third‑party help desk.
Data Retention
- App Data (Pockets/Activities): Stored locally and in your private iCloud for as long as you keep them. You can delete Pockets from within the app.
- Support Emails: Retained for as long as an issue persists, or at least one year (whichever is later). You may request deletion; see “Your Rights and Choices.”
- Analytics: We retain analytics signals for as long as needed to improve the app; signals are not tied to your identity.
Children’s Privacy
- Zwoosh! supports a parent/child setup. Children under 13 may use the app in “child” mode under parental control.
- We do not collect personal data from children beyond what is necessary to provide app functionality. The child’s device can view shared Pockets read‑only as authorized by the parent via iCloud.
- We do not display ads or use advertising trackers for children.
Your Rights and Choices
- Local Data: Parents can delete Pockets and Activities directly in the app. Deleting a Pocket removes the local data and its sharing. Children typically do not store data locally; shared content is fetched from the parent’s iCloud.
- Support Emails: You may request deletion of your support emails by contacting support@PaprikaTech.io.
- Analytics: TelemetryDeck data is designed not to be traceable to specific users. Because of this, we generally cannot identify or delete analytics associated with a particular individual.
International Users and Legal Bases
Zwoosh! may be available in the EU/UK, California, and other regions. Where required, our processing of analytics and support communications is based on our legitimate interests in operating and improving the app and supporting users, balanced against your rights and expectations.
If you are in a region that grants specific rights (e.g., GDPR/UK GDPR, CCPA/CPRA), you may contact us to exercise applicable rights. Note that for analytics (TelemetryDeck), we cannot identify records tied to you personally due to their design.
Security
We use reasonable safeguards to protect information. Pockets and Activities data are stored locally and in your private iCloud via CloudKit. Communications with iCloud and our analytics provider use encrypted connections.
Permissions We Request
- Camera: To scan QR codes for Pockets sharing (optional).
- Photo Library: To allow you to set a Pocket image (optional).
- Notifications: To notify child devices of Pocket changes shared by a parent via iCloud (optional). You can control notifications in system settings.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will update the “Last updated” date and, where appropriate, provide additional notice in the app.
