Astrosift Privacy Policy
Effective July 22, 2026. This policy explains how Astrosift handles information.
Summary
Astrosift does not collect data, track you, show ads, require an account, or use a developer-operated backend. The developer does not receive, sell, or share personal information from the app.
Information on Your Device
The app may store editable workspaces, parameter values, imported records, comparison settings, notes, and export history. These records remain in the app's local container and are not transmitted to the developer.
Files and Device Access
A file is opened only when you choose it through Apple's system file importer. Analysis remains on device, and the developer does not receive the selected file.
Sharing and Exports
When you choose a share or export control, Apple system interfaces handle the destination. The developer does not receive the exported content.
Network Access and Third Parties
The app has no developer-operated account service, advertising SDK, analytics SDK, tracking SDK, or crash-reporting SDK.
Retention and Deletion
Local information remains until you delete it with available controls or remove the app. Apple-managed backups are controlled by your Apple settings.
Product Scope
Astrosift is an inspection and planning tool, not a calibrated scientific pipeline. Verify photometry, world coordinates, debayering, and observatory-specific conventions elsewhere.
Children's Privacy
No personal information is knowingly collected from children or any other user because the app transmits no user data to the developer.
Changes
This policy and the App Store privacy disclosure will be updated before a future release changes these practices.
