Privacy Policy

We respect your privacy. This policy explains how the app and our website handle your information.

1. The App (iOS & Android)

The app works entirely offline for normal use. We do not collect, store, or share any personal data.

Anything you add to the app, such as PDF files, stays only on your device.

The app may access the internet only when you choose to open external links, such as opening support pages, opening the App Store or Google Play to rate or view the app, or opening other websites from links you choose inside the app, including links you add to your patterns.

We do not track or record these actions.

External Links

The app may open links from third-party websites, including support pages, App Store or Google Play pages, online tutorials, or links added by users to their patterns. We do not control these websites and we are not responsible for their content or their privacy practices. You should review the terms and privacy policies of any external websites you visit.

2. The Website (Netlify)

Our website is hosted on Netlify, which provides the hosting platform and form handling for our newsletter sign-up and contact form.

Email Newsletter

If you sign up, we collect your email address. It is submitted through Netlify Forms and used only to send updates.

Contact Form

If you contact us, we receive only the information you choose to send: email address, name if provided, and message.

We use this only to respond to you.

Netlify Hosting, Forms & Basic Site Data

Netlify may automatically process basic technical information needed to operate and protect the website, such as device and browser information, IP address, usage data, server logs, and cookies or similar technologies required for the website and forms to function.

We do not use this information for advertising, personalization, or tracking outside the basic operation of the website.

We do not collect or store this technical information ourselves except for the form submissions you voluntarily send.

3. Children’s Privacy

We do not knowingly collect information from children.

4. Your Data Stays Yours

In the app, everything stays on your device. On the website, we only collect the email or message information you voluntarily submit.

We never sell, trade, or share your data.

5. International Users (GDPR and Similar Laws)

If you live in a region with data-protection laws, such as the EU/EEA or UK, you may request access to the information you submitted, ask for correction or deletion, and withdraw your newsletter consent at any time.

To make a request, contact us at hello@sewsy.ca. We will respond promptly.

Our legal bases for processing this information are consent for the newsletter and legitimate interest for responding to contact messages.

6. Changes to This Policy

If we update this policy, we will change the date above.
