Privacy Policy

TouchTalk Pro · Last updated: May 5, 2026

1. Overview

TouchTalk Pro is an AAC (Augmentative and Alternative Communication) app built for iPhone. This Privacy Policy explains what information the app accesses, how it is stored, and your rights as a user.

Short version: TouchTalk Pro collects no personal data, sends nothing to any server, and keeps all your information entirely on your device.

2. Data we do not collect

TouchTalk Pro does not collect, transmit, or share any of the following:

• Personal identifiers (name, email, phone number, Apple ID)
• Device identifiers (IDFA, IDFV, serial number)
• Location data
• Usage analytics or behavioral data
• Crash reports sent to third-party services
• Advertising data of any kind
• Health or medical data

The app makes no network requests. There is no backend server, no database outside your device, and no third-party SDK that transmits data.

3. Data stored locally on your device

All data created inside TouchTalk Pro lives exclusively on your iPhone:

• Vocabulary boards and buttons — stored in SwiftData within the app's private sandbox.
• Custom audio recordings — WAV/CAF audio files stored in the app's private sandbox.
• Custom photos — image files imported from your camera or photo library, stored in the app's private sandbox. The original files in your photo library are not modified.
• App preferences — language, appearance, and interface settings stored in UserDefaults (local, not synced to iCloud).

This data is protected by iOS app sandboxing. Other apps cannot access it. If you delete TouchTalk Pro, all locally stored data is permanently removed from your device.

4. External services

TouchTalk Pro does not use any external services, APIs, analytics SDKs, advertising networks, or cloud storage providers. The app functions entirely offline.

5. Device permissions

TouchTalk Pro requests the following iOS permissions only when you use the features that require them:

• Camera — to photograph custom images for communication buttons. Photos are saved to the app sandbox only and are not uploaded anywhere.
• Photo Library (read) — to import existing photos from your library as button images. The original library files are not modified or copied to any server.
• Photo Library (add) — to save exported content to your photo library (future feature). Nothing is added without your explicit action.
• Microphone — to record custom audio messages for buttons. Audio recordings are stored locally in the app sandbox only.
• Speech Recognition — to transcribe spoken words into button labels (v1.1 feature, on-device via Apple's Speech framework). No audio is sent to Apple or any third party for this feature.

You may deny any permission. If a permission is denied, the specific feature that requires it will be unavailable, but all other features continue to work normally.

6. Children's privacy

TouchTalk Pro is designed to be used by or on behalf of people with communication needs, which may include minors. Because the app collects no personal data and makes no network requests, it does not collect information from children. Parents and caregivers may use the app freely without privacy concern.

TouchTalk Pro complies with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) as applied to a zero-data-collection application.

7. Medical information disclaimer

TouchTalk Pro is a personal communication aid, not a medical device. It does not diagnose, treat, monitor, or assess any medical condition, including autism, apraxia of speech, ALS, aphasia, cerebral palsy, or Down syndrome. The app is not cleared or approved by any regulatory body (FDA, CE, COFEPRIS, or similar) as a medical device.

Please work with a licensed speech-language pathologist or other qualified healthcare professional for clinical assessment and therapy. TouchTalk Pro is intended as a supplement to, not a replacement for, professional care.

8. iCloud and backups

TouchTalk Pro does not use iCloud Drive or CloudKit. Your data does not sync across devices automatically. However, your vocabulary boards, audio files, and photos may be included in your iPhone's standard iCloud Backup or local iTunes/Finder backup if you have backup enabled in iOS settings. These backups are subject to Apple's privacy practices, not ours.

9. Data retention and deletion

TouchTalk Pro retains data only for as long as the app is installed on your device. You may delete any board, button, photo, or audio recording at any time within the app. Deleting the app removes all app data permanently from your device.

10. Your rights (GDPR / CCPA / LGPD)

Because TouchTalk Pro collects no personal data, there is nothing to access, correct, port, or delete on our end. All your data is on your device and under your full control. If you have questions, contact us at christian@irack.mx.

11. Security

All data is protected by iOS app sandboxing and the security features of your device (Face ID / Touch ID / passcode). No data travels over a network, which eliminates the risk of interception in transit.

12. Changes to this policy

If we update this Privacy Policy, the new version will be published at this URL and the "Last updated" date above will change. Significant changes will be noted in the app's release notes.
