Privacy policy
Last updated 15 November 2026
Diploma GDC collects no data about you. It has no accounts, no server of its own, no analytics, no advertising and no third-party code. Everything you type stays on your device.
This policy covers Diploma GDC on iPhone, iPad and Mac. "We" means the developer of Diploma GDC, Yash Khetan. The sections below say the same thing as the summary, in more detail.
Information we collect
None. The app does not ask for, receive or send us any personal information. Specifically, it does not collect:
- Your name, email address, phone number or any other contact detail
- Account details. There are no accounts.
- Location, contacts, photos, calendars, microphone or camera data
- Device identifiers, advertising identifiers or IP addresses
- Usage analytics, crash reports, diagnostics or telemetry
- The expressions, notes, drawings, graphs or data you enter
The app never asks for permission to use your location, contacts, photos, camera or microphone.
Information stored on your device
The app saves your work so that it is still there when you come back: your documents and pages (including handwriting on Scribble pages), notebooks, stored variables, lists, programs, saved graphs and your settings. It also keeps a few counters, such as how many times you have opened the app, which it uses to decide when to show the rating prompt. All of this is written to the app's own private storage on your device.
We cannot see it. It is not uploaded, sent to us, or shared with anyone. It is included in your device's own backup, such as iCloud Backup or a Mac's Time Machine, if you use one. Those backups are between you and Apple, and we cannot read them.
When you share or export something, the app first writes the picture or PDF to a temporary file on your device, then hands it to the share sheet or, on a Mac, saves it where you choose.
Handwriting recognition
On iPhone and iPad, "Read my handwriting" reads the handwriting on a Scribble page using Apple's text recognition, which runs on your device. Your handwriting is not sent anywhere.
Network activity
The app makes no network requests of its own. It contains no code that opens a network connection and no embedded web content. Only these things leave the app, and only when you tap them:
- The rating prompt. This is Apple's own App Store prompt. Apple shows it, and the app is not told what you chose.
- "Write a review", which opens the App Store app.
- The share sheet, which hands what you chose to share to the app you pick.
- The support email link, which opens your email app.
Everything else works in Airplane Mode, and on a device that has never been connected to a network.
Files you open
The IA toolkit can import a CSV or text file. It reads only the file you pick, and only to put its numbers into the app. Nothing is sent anywhere.
Third parties
There are none. The app contains no third-party libraries, software development kits, analytics services, advertising networks or trackers. No data is shared or sold, because we have no data to share or sell.
Children
The app is made for students on the IB Diploma Programme, who are usually 16 to 18 years old, but it is suitable for any age. Because it collects no information from anyone, it collects none from children. It has no advertising, no accounts, and no in-app chat or messaging.
Deleting your data
You can delete documents, pages and programs one at a time inside the app. Reset everything, on the Memory screen, clears stored variables, lists, data, graphs, programs and the spreadsheet. On iPhone and iPad, deleting the app deletes everything it saved. On a Mac, moving the app to the Bin can leave its saved work in the app's folder inside your user Library, under Containers; deleting that folder removes it.
Your rights
Data-protection law, including the UK and EU GDPR, gives you rights to access, correct, export and erase personal data held about you. We hold none, so there is nothing for us to access, correct, export or erase. The work saved on your device is under your control.
Changes to this policy
If a future version of the app ever collects anything, we will update this policy before that version is released and describe the change in the app's release notes. The date at the top of this page shows when the policy last changed.
