Who we are
warmia is a local design and learning app. warmia is the provisional operator name until the legal operator is confirmed. Privacy questions: color-and-type-lab@support.com. This address is a draft contact and has not been verified; use the App Store developer contact if it is not reachable.
Information processed on your device
The app stores design documents, edited text, chosen colors, sampled photo coordinates, exercise completion, written rationales and any photos or audio you choose to save. It also stores a local guide preference. This information is used only to provide editing, sampling, comparison, playback and export. Color sampling is pixel based; the app does not identify people or infer identity or emotion. Audio is not transcribed.
Collection and sharing
This version contains no account system, advertising, analytics SDK, tracking, business backend, cloud synchronization or app-operated upload. We do not receive your artwork or recordings through the app. Welcome, learning fonts, icons and built-in examples are bundled locally. Privacy, terms and support pages open from our HTTPS host inside the app, as described below. Operating-system diagnostics and device backup services are controlled by Apple and your device settings.
Camera, photos and microphone
Camera access is requested only when you choose Take Photo, to capture an image for color sampling. Photo Library uses the system-selected photo picker and does not request full-library access. Microphone access is requested only when you choose Record, for a design rationale of up to 90 seconds. You can refuse either permission and continue with the bundled color study, photo selection or text rationale. Manage permissions in iOS Settings. No location or speech-recognition permission is requested.
Storage, retention and deletion
Personal documents and confirmed media are saved in the app's Application Support directory. Recording drafts and generated exports use temporary files; exports are cleaned after the share sheet closes. Documents remain until you delete them or remove the app. Delete a document from Library to remove its associated photo and recording. Settings > Delete All My Data removes saved personal documents, photos, recordings and exercise progress and restores a built-in example; the guide preference is separate. A pending unconfirmed take may be lost on app termination. No remote retention period applies to your artwork and recordings because they are not uploaded by the app.
Device backups and security
Local app data may be included in iOS or computer backups according to your settings. Deletion from this app does not remove copies already exported, shared or retained in backups. iOS sandbox protection applies; no security system can be guaranteed against every risk. Keep your device updated and protect access to it.
Your exports and support requests
Export or Share opens the iOS share sheet only at your request. PNG and PDF include artwork and the PDF includes written rationale and selected contrast values. M4A audio is shared separately. Generated images do not include the source photo's EXIF location metadata. A receiving service processes shared files under its own policy. If you contact support outside the app, your message and any files you voluntarily send may be handled by the chosen email or support provider. Do not send sensitive information unnecessarily.
Children and your choices
The provisional minimum age is 13, based on the creative-learning context; it is separate from the App Store age rating. The app does not knowingly collect children's personal information through an app service. You control permission grants, editing, deletion, backup and sharing. Contact support with a privacy request and do not include private artwork unless needed to explain it.
Changes
We may update this policy when app behavior changes. The current text is available in Settings > Privacy Policy. Material changes will be reflected in the last-updated date.
Hosted policy pages
Privacy, terms and support pages are delivered over HTTPS from https://warmia.vercel.app using Vercel hosting. Opening these pages requires an internet connection. The hosting provider may process your IP address, browser or device information, request time and requested URL to deliver and secure the pages under its own privacy practices. Your saved app records, photos and recordings are not included in these page requests. These pages contain no advertising, analytics scripts or remote font requests. The welcome page and core learning features remain available offline.
