Inkstone Privacy Policy

Last updated: 11 September 2026

Inkstone does not collect anything. This page exists because the App Store requires every app to link to a privacy policy, and the honest version of that document is short.

What the app collects

Nothing. Inkstone has no accounts, no sign-in, no analytics, no advertising, no crash reporting, and no telemetry of any kind. It contains no third-party SDKs that could collect on its behalf. It makes no network requests of its own — the Markdown preview renders locally generated HTML, and the maths and diagram libraries it uses (KaTeX and Mermaid) ship inside the app rather than being fetched from a server.

The developer has no server, and so has no way to receive your data even in principle.

Where your notes live

Your notes are ordinary .md files on your device.

Switching iCloud sync off leaves the iCloud copy where it is rather than deleting it, so nothing disappears by accident. To remove those files, delete them from the Files app or from iCloud Drive.

One preference — whether iCloud sync is on — is stored on the device.

Links you tap

Tapping a link in a rendered note opens it in Safari. From that point the site you visited, and Apple, are the parties involved; this app is not. Inkstone has no built-in browser and cannot load an arbitrary web page inside itself.

Deleting your data

Deleting the app removes the notes stored on the device. Notes in iCloud Drive are removed by deleting them there, from the Files app on any of your devices or from iCloud.com. There is nothing to request from the developer, because there is nothing held by the developer.

Children

Inkstone is not directed at children and collects no personal information from anyone, of any age.

Changes to this policy

If this ever stops being accurate — for instance if a future version added a feature that talked to a server — this page will be updated before that version ships, and the date at the top will change.
