dissector · privacy
It collects nothing.
That is not a policy position. It is a property of the build: there is no network code in the app, so there is no mechanism by which anything could leave your phone — not by our choice, and not by our mistake.
What is collected
Nothing. No account, no sign-in, no email address, no device identifier. No analytics, no crash reporting, no telemetry, no advertising identifier, and no third-party SDK of any kind. The app’s privacy manifest declares this formally to Apple: data collected, none; tracking, false.
The camera
dissector needs the camera, because it is a camera. What the lens sees is turned into curves on the device, in memory, by the phone’s own graphics hardware. No frame is ever written to disk, and none is ever transmitted. The photograph is discarded the moment the line is born — the drawing is what is kept.
Your files
Every shot writes an SVG, a PNG proof and a print file into the Files app on your phone, in folders of their own. They are yours. We never see them, never receive a copy, and have no way to know they exist. What you do with them afterwards — send them to a shop, put them on a shirt, delete them — is not visible to us.
What we hold about you
Nothing, which means there is nothing to request, correct, export or delete. If you need that stated in writing for a client, an employer or a review board, write to us and a person will send it to you.
Payment
If you buy the app, Apple handles the purchase and Apple holds that record. We are told that a sale happened. We are not told who you are.
Children
There is nothing here to collect from anybody, of any age.
If this ever changes
It will not change quietly. A version of dissector that touched the network would say so in its release notes, and this page would say so on the day it shipped rather than afterwards.
