Tally Board Privacy Policy

Effective September 27, 2026

Tally Board is a customizable board app for counting, tracking, and organizing information. This policy explains what happens to information you put in the app and what happens when you use its optional online features. Questions or privacy requests can be sent to tallyboard.support@gmail.com.

Information you create

Boards, pages, tiles, values, notes, tables, photos, saved checkpoints, recordings, settings, and controller mappings are stored on your device so the app can work without an account. This content can include personal information if you choose to put it there. Deleting the app may remove its local data, depending on your device's backup settings. Exported files and device backups are controlled separately by you and the services you use for them.

Optional cloud sync and sign-in

If you turn on cloud sync, Tally Board uses Google sign-in on Android or Sign in with Apple on iOS through Firebase Authentication. We receive an account identifier and any email address the sign-in provider makes available. Your workspace, including its board content, is stored in Google Cloud Firestore under that account so it can be restored or used on another device. Cloud sync is optional; turning it off stops future sync but does not automatically delete the copy already stored online. Signing in to recover premium access may also use your account identifier without turning on cloud sync.

Sharing boards and folders

When you create a hosted share link, including one presented as a QR code, a copy of the selected board or folder is uploaded to Cloud Firestore. That copy can include its pages, values, notes, photos, saved checkpoints, and other board settings. Anyone who has the link can open and import that copy; it is not limited to your account. Hosted share links do not currently expire automatically. Deleting or changing your local board does not change a copy already shared. To request removal of a hosted share, email us the link. You can also share files or content through your device's share sheet; in that case, the recipient and the service you choose receive what you share.

Purchases and premium access

In builds where purchases are available, the app uses RevenueCat and the Apple App Store or Google Play to offer and verify premium access. These services may process a purchase or restore record, an app user identifier, and technical information needed to operate the purchase service. When signed in, Tally Board may use your Firebase account identifier as the RevenueCat app user identifier; otherwise RevenueCat uses an anonymous identifier. We do not receive your payment card number. We may also store an account identifier or invitation email to administer beta, gifted, or lifetime access.

Support, device features, and service data

If you contact support, we receive what you choose to send, such as your email address, message, screenshots, or board files. The app does not attach board data or diagnostics to a support email automatically. Photos you select or take are used for the boards you edit. Bluetooth keyboard and controller inputs, shortcuts, and local notifications are used to run features you choose. Tally Board does not include advertising or a separate analytics or crash reporting SDK in the current build. Online providers may process device, network, and connection information needed to deliver their services, prevent abuse, and maintain security.

How information is used and shared

We use information to provide local boards, sync, sharing, purchases, access recovery, and support. We do not sell your personal information or use your board content for advertising. Information is processed by the services needed for features you use: Google Firebase for sign-in, sync, and hosted sharing; Apple or Google for sign-in and store purchases; RevenueCat for purchase verification; and your chosen email, file, or sharing service when you use it. Their handling of information is also described in the Firebase privacy information, Google Privacy Policy, Apple Privacy Policy, and RevenueCat Privacy Policy.

Keeping and deleting information

You can delete boards and folders in the app and stop cloud sync from the app's cloud sync controls. You can export boards and folders before deleting them. Local deletion does not automatically delete a synced copy, hosted share, file you sent, or purchase record held by a store. To request access to or deletion of cloud data, account information, or a hosted share, email tallyboard.support@gmail.com from the account involved when possible, and include any share link to be removed. We may need to verify that you control the account or link. We keep information while it is needed for the features you use and for legitimate security, support, or legal obligations; provider backups and purchase records may be retained under provider rules.

Security and children

Cloud workspace access is restricted to the signed-in account. Hosted shares are accessible to anyone with the link, so do not put sensitive information in a board you share. No online service can guarantee absolute security. Tally Board is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly seek personal information from them.

Changes and contact

We may update this policy as the app changes. The effective date above will change when we do. Contact tallyboard.support@gmail.com with privacy questions or requests.
