ScanTally is built on a simple idea: your inventory data is yours, and it stays on your phone. This policy describes exactly what the app does — and, more importantly, what it doesn't.
Everything ScanTally records — counts, items, snapshots/backups, settings, your purchase status and the app's first-install date — is stored locally inside the app's private sandbox on your phone. Uninstalling the app deletes this data. Your device's own backups (e.g. iCloud device backup) may include it, under your control and your Apple account — we have no access.
The camera is used only to recognize barcodes while you are on the scanning screen. Camera frames are processed on-device in real time and are never stored or transmitted.
When you export or email a count, the file is generated on your device and handed to the app you choose (Mail, Files, a messenger, …). From that point the data is governed by that app's policy. ScanTally never sends anything anywhere on its own.
Payments are processed by Apple. ScanTally stores your unlock status locally so the app works fully offline, including "Restore purchases".
We use RevenueCat to validate purchases and restore them across reinstalls. RevenueCat receives an anonymous app-generated identifier and purchase receipts only — never any of your inventory data. See RevenueCat's privacy policy for details.
The current version of ScanTally sends no crash reports.
ScanTally is a business utility, is rated 4+, and collects no personal information from anyone, including children.
If this policy ever changes, the new version will be posted here with an updated date. Changes that would send any data off your device will never be silent: they would be announced inside the app beforehand.
