Patchie Tier Maker Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how viennci.dev handles information when you use Patchie Tier Maker on iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
Patchie Tier Maker is designed to let you create and manage tier boards using photos, text, and links. The app does not require an account, does not include login, and does not use analytics, advertising SDKs, or third-party marketing trackers.
Who Operates Patchie Tier Maker
Patchie Tier Maker is operated by viennci.dev.
If you have questions about this Privacy Policy or the app's privacy practices, contact:
Information the App Handles
Patchie Tier Maker may handle the following information as part of the app's core features:
- Board content you create, including board titles, tier labels, text items, link items, favorites, recent boards, and app preferences.
- Photos you choose to import into a board from your photo library.
- Photos you choose to capture using the camera and add to a board.
- Link data you enter, such as URLs added to board items.
- Exported board images when you choose to export or share a board.
This information is used to provide the app's board creation, editing, storage, sync, and export features.
How Your Information Is Used
Patchie Tier Maker uses data only to operate app features you choose to use, including:
- saving and restoring your boards and preferences
- syncing your board data through your private iCloud storage when iCloud is available for your device and Apple ID
- importing photos you select
- capturing photos when you use the camera feature
- generating link previews for links you add
- exporting or sharing board images when you initiate those actions
viennci.dev does not use your information for advertising, profiling, behavioral tracking, or developer-operated analytics.
iCloud and CloudKit Sync
The main release of Patchie Tier Maker uses Apple's CloudKit-backed storage for app persistence and sync. This means your board data may be stored locally on your device and may also sync through your private iCloud / CloudKit storage associated with your Apple account.
viennci.dev does not provide a separate Patchie account system and does not independently collect your board data into a developer-operated analytics or marketing database.
Because iCloud and CloudKit are Apple services, your use of iCloud-synced features is also subject to Apple's terms, policies, and security practices.
Device Permissions
Patchie Tier Maker requests access only for features you choose to use:
- Photo Library: to let you import photos into your boards
- Camera: to let you take a photo and add it to a board
You can manage these permissions in your device settings.
Link Previews
If you add a link item, Patchie Tier Maker may use Apple-provided system frameworks to request metadata or preview imagery for that link so the app can display a visual preview. This may involve network requests handled through Apple platform services based on the links you add.
Analytics, Ads, and Tracking
Patchie Tier Maker does not:
- require account creation or login
- use third-party analytics SDKs
- use advertising SDKs
- use third-party marketing trackers
- sell your personal information
Sharing and Exports
If you choose to export a board as an image or share it using your device's sharing tools, the resulting file and any sharing destination are controlled by the actions you take. Once you share exported content outside the app, that content is governed by the policies of the destination or service you choose.
Data Retention and Deletion
Your board data remains in the app's storage and, where applicable, your private iCloud / CloudKit storage until you delete it, remove the app, disable applicable Apple sync/storage features, or otherwise remove the underlying data from your devices or Apple services.
Exported files you save are retained wherever you choose to store them.
Children's Privacy
Patchie Tier Maker is a general-audience app and is not intended to knowingly collect personal information from children through a developer-operated account, analytics, or advertising system.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. If it changes, the updated version will be posted with a new effective date.
