Your stuff stays yours.

Last updated 7 October 2026. This covers every NoPointApps app and this website.

The short version: most of our apps keep everything on your phone. A few have an optional login so a group or family can share things. We do not sell your data and we do not run ads.

Who we are

NoPointApps is a sole trader based in Scotland. For anything about your data, email support@nopointapps.com.

What we collect

On your device only: settings, saved items, scores and reminders. This stays on your phone and never reaches us.
If you make an account or join a group: your email address, display name, a password (stored scrambled, never in plain text) and the things you choose to share in that app, such as votes, freezer items or a profile picture.
Notifications: reminders are scheduled on your phone. Some apps can send push notifications, which need a device token so Apple or Google can reach your phone.
Location, camera and contacts: only when an app asks and you allow it, and only for the feature that needs it, such as scanning a code or finding a place to meet.

What we do with it

We use it to run the app you are using: signing you in, syncing your group, sending a password reset email and fixing bugs. We do not sell it, rent it or use it to show ads.

Who else sees it

Our own server, which stores account data.
An email service we use to send password resets and similar messages.
Apple and Google, who run the App Store, Google Play, TestFlight and push notifications under their own privacy policies.
Free public services some apps look things up on, such as food product data or map data. These receive the lookup, not your name or account.

Backups

Apps with a login keep a nightly backup copy on our server for 14 days. Since 7 October 2026 an encrypted copy also goes each night to private Oracle Cloud storage in London (UK), where it is deleted automatically after 30 days. Only the developer can get to these backups, and they are used only to put things back after a problem. If you delete your account or data, it is removed from the app straight away, but it can stay in these backups until they expire, up to 30 days. It is never put back into the app, except to recover from a failure. Anything that stays only on your phone is never in our backups.

Your rights

Under UK data protection law you can ask to see, correct or delete the data we hold about you. Email us from the address you signed up with and we will sort it, usually within a day or two. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.

Children

Our apps are made for general audiences and are not aimed at children under 13. If you think a child has given us their details, tell us and we will delete them.

Changes

If this policy changes we will update the date at the top. Some apps also have their own page with extra detail, linked from the app's page.
