Privacy policy

Joao Frasco’s apps are designed to be local-first. The apps covered by this site do not require you to create an account with Joao Frasco, and we do not sell personal information. Several apps are documented as collecting no personal data and keeping user-created content on the device.

Because the catalogue contains different kinds of apps, this page is a collection-level policy. If a particular app has different data practices, its app-specific notice and App Store listing take priority.

Each app has its own information page, with a privacy section that can serve as its dedicated privacy URL. Data practices differ by app and feature, so use that app’s page alongside its App Store privacy disclosure.

• HIIT Counter for iPhone and iPad: no account, ads, analytics, tracking, data collection, or network use. Settings, presets, and workout history stay on the device without iCloud sync. Apple Health access is optional; optional Apple Intelligence features use an on-device model. See the full HIIT Counter privacy policy.
• Glyph Atlas: no data is collected, favorites stay on your device, and the app works offline without network access. See Glyph Atlas privacy details.
• Epicycle Gallery: no data is collected; drawings and pasted material are processed on device, and clipboard access happens only when you choose to paste. See Epicycle Gallery privacy details.
• One Second Later: the App Store disclosure says data is not collected; captures and the in-app library stay on device, while Apple handles purchases and subscriptions. See One Second Later privacy details.
• UK Mortality: the unreleased project documentation describes on-device storage and optional Apple intelligence features. This notice will be rechecked against the released binary and its App Store disclosure before launch. See UK Mortality privacy details.
• Noisy Alpha, SA Tax, and Walk Bingo: current project notes describe no developer-collected personal data and on-device storage for core features.
• Calc Forex: requests public exchange-rate data; those requests are described as not including your name, email address, or app user identifier.
• Divide Bill: camera and photo access is optional and receipt processing is designed to happen on-device; receipt images are not uploaded to a Joao Frasco server.

For each app, the app-specific page is the detailed notice. Review it against the current released build and App Store privacy disclosure when features change.

Depending on the app, your settings, saved work, game progress, scenarios, history, or widget data may be stored locally on your iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, or Apple TV. This information is used to provide the app and is not sent to Joao Frasco’s servers. Deleting the app generally removes its local data.

Some apps may request public information over the internet. For example, CalcForex requests exchange-rate data from public rate services. These requests are intended to provide rates and do not include your name, email address, or a developer account identifier. The relevant app’s listing or in-app notice should be treated as the current description of its network behaviour.

Where an app offers camera or photo features, access is optional and used for the feature you choose. Divide Bill, for example, uses camera or photo access to read receipt text on the device; receipt images are not uploaded to a Joao Frasco server. When you use an Apple share sheet, you choose the destination. The receiving service’s privacy policy then applies.

Apple may process App Store downloads, in-app purchases, refunds, notifications, and system services under Apple’s own terms and privacy policy. Joao Frasco does not receive your payment card details. Optional Apple on-device intelligence features are processed under Apple’s platform privacy model.

The apps are not designed to collect personal information from children. If an app is intended for a particular age range, its App Store listing provides the current rating and details.

This policy may be updated when an app’s features or data practices change. The date at the top of this page will change with a material update.
