Privacy Policy
Last updated: December 28, 2025
Your code stays on your machine.
We only collect what's necessary to help you ship. StorePreflight is designed as a local-first engineering tool, not a data-harvesting platform.
What StorePreflight Does Not Do
Let's be explicit:
- ❌We do not upload your source code by default
- ❌We do not inspect proprietary business logic
- ❌We do not train AI models on your code
- ❌We do not sell or share user data
- ❌We do not require an account to scan your app
If you can use StorePreflight without logging in, that's intentional.
1. Overview
StorePreflight ("StorePreflight," "we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting it through this Privacy Policy.
StorePreflight is designed as a local-first developer tool. Our goal is to collect only the minimum information necessary to operate and improve the Service.
You can use significant portions of StorePreflight without creating an account or providing personal information.
2. How Scans Work
By default:
- All scans run locally on your machine
- We read configuration files (e.g., app.json, manifests, metadata)
- We evaluate structure and declarations, not application behavior
- Results stay on your machine unless you explicitly choose otherwise
StorePreflight analyzes what exists, not what you build.
3. Information We Collect
3.1 Information You Provide Voluntarily
Depending on how you use the Service, you may provide:
- Email address (optional) — Used for authentication (passwordless magic links) and to send important product or policy updates if you opt in
- Account information — If you create an account: email address and basic account metadata (creation date, last activity)
We do not require:
- Usernames or passwords
- Social logins
- App Store or Google Play credentials
3.2 Information Collected Automatically
We may collect limited technical information, such as:
- Anonymous session identifiers
- Application version
- Operating system type
- Timestamps of scans or usage events
This information is used solely to maintain sessions, improve reliability and performance, and understand feature usage at a high level.
3.3 Application Scan Data
By default:
- StorePreflight scans run locally on your machine
- Configuration files are analyzed locally
- Scan results remain local unless you explicitly choose to save or sync them
If you choose to save scan data, only metadata and scan results are stored. Source code is not uploaded unless explicitly enabled in future enterprise features.
4. Identity & Accounts
You can use StorePreflight without an account.
When we ask for an email, it's because:
- You want to save progress
- You want to resume work later
- You want to be notified when store requirements change
Authentication uses secure, passwordless magic links.
5. How We Use Information
We use collected information to:
- Provide and maintain the Service
- Authenticate users (if applicable)
- Save and restore project scans (if enabled)
- Notify users of important changes to app store requirements
- Improve product functionality and usability
- Ensure security and prevent abuse
We do not use your information for:
- Advertising networks
- Selling or renting data
- Training AI models on your code
6. Notifications
If you opt in to emails, you'll hear from us when:
- App Store or Google Play requirements change
- A change may affect one of your previous scans
- We ship a meaningful improvement
We don't send:
- Marketing blasts
- Sales drip campaigns
- Noise
You can unsubscribe at any time.
7. Cookies and Tracking
StorePreflight uses minimal tracking technologies:
- Local storage may be used to persist anonymous session data
- Cookies may be used for authentication sessions (web only)
We do not use:
- Third-party advertising cookies
- Cross-site tracking pixels
8. Data Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information.
We may share information only in the following circumstances:
- Service providers — Trusted infrastructure providers who help operate the Service (e.g., hosting, email delivery), under strict confidentiality obligations
- Legal requirements — If required to comply with applicable laws, regulations, or legal processes
- Business transfers — In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, user information may be transferred as part of that transaction
9. Data Retention
We retain information only as long as necessary:
- Anonymous session data may be retained temporarily
- Account information is retained until you request deletion
- Email subscriptions can be canceled at any time
You may request deletion of your account and associated data by contacting us.
10. Security
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information, including:
- Encrypted communications
- Secure authentication flows
- Limited data access controls
No system is completely secure, but we strive to protect your data using industry-standard practices.
11. Your Rights and Choices
Depending on your location, you may have rights to:
- Access your personal information
- Correct inaccurate information
- Request deletion of your data
- Opt out of communications
You can exercise these rights by contacting us at the address below.
12. For Teams & Enterprises
When teams or organizations use StorePreflight:
- Access is role-based
- Audit trails are explicit
- Data boundaries are clear
- Nothing is shared across accounts
Enterprise features are opt-in, not assumed.
13. Children's Privacy
StorePreflight is not intended for use by individuals under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
14. International Users
StorePreflight may be accessed from outside the United States. By using the Service, you consent to the transfer and processing of information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
15. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do:
- We will update the "Last updated" date
- Significant changes will be communicated through the Service or email (if you have opted in)
Our Philosophy
StorePreflight was built by engineers who have spent decades working in regulated, high-trust environments. That background shapes everything:
- Minimal data collection
- Explicit consent
- Predictable behavior
- Respect for developer intent
We believe trust is earned by restraint, not promises.
