Privacy policy

Last updated

Walkthru collects no data about you. It has no accounts, no servers and no analytics, so there is no mechanism by which your recordings, screenshots or guides could reach us or anyone else. Everything the app does happens on your device.

Who this covers, and who we are

This policy applies to the Walkthru app for iPhone and iPad, and to this website. Walkthru is a product of Innov8 Ventures Company LTD, registered in the Republic of the Union of Myanmar, which is the data controller for the purposes of the GDPR and equivalent laws. Reach us at walkthru@innov8.com.mm.

What the app collects

Nothing. There is no sign-up, no login, no profile and no identifier. The app does not ask for your name, your email address or your phone number, and it has no field in which to put them.

The App Store privacy label for Walkthru reads Data Not Collected, which is the accurate description rather than a minimised one. The app does use the camera roll, the microphone and the screen — described in full below — but a label records what a developer collects, meaning what leaves your device and reaches them. Nothing does, so nothing is collected.

Your recordings, screenshots and guides

Screen recordings and screenshots are sensitive by nature — they contain whatever you had on screen. Walkthru treats them accordingly:

  • Recordings you import or capture, screenshots you import, and any narration you record are stored in the app’s own container on your device, and are not copied anywhere else.
  • Step detection, on-screen text reading, sensitive-content detection, annotation and export all run locally on your device.
  • No frame, no screenshot, no audio and no guide is uploaded to us or to any third party at any point.
  • Deleting a guide in the app deletes its stored screenshots and narration from your device. Deleting the app removes its container and everything in it.

You do not have to take this on trust. Turn on Airplane Mode and use the app: every feature behaves identically, because none of them ever needed the network.

Reading the text on your screenshots

Walkthru reads the text in each screenshot in order to spot things you may not want to share — email addresses, phone numbers, postal addresses, card numbers, IBANs, US Social Security numbers, ABA routing numbers, crypto wallet addresses, and strings that look like passwords or secret keys — and to avoid creating duplicate steps.

This reading is done by Apple’s on-device text recognition. The bulk of the recognised text is discarded when the scan finishes; the specific snippets that matched — the email address or card number a redaction offer covers — are kept with the guide, on your device, until you accept or dismiss the offer. None of it is ever transmitted. What the scan finds is offered to you as a redaction; nothing is ever applied to an export on its own.

Recording and photo permissions

When you record with Walkthru, iOS presents its own system sheet asking you to confirm, and shows the system recording indicator for the entire duration. Walkthru cannot start a recording without that confirmation and cannot hide the indicator. Recordings made this way land directly in the app’s container and are not written to your Photos library.

Importing an existing recording uses Apple’s photo picker, which hands the app only the single file you chose. Importing screenshots uses the same picker, which hands over only the pictures you selected. Walkthru is not granted access to your photo library in either case: it never sees a picture you did not pick, and it cannot browse, search or count what is in there.

Exporting images to Photos is the one time Walkthru writes to your library, and that permission is add-only: it can put the guide images you asked for into your library and it cannot read anything back out.

Narration and the microphone

A guide’s video export can carry a voice-over, and recording one uses the microphone. iOS asks for that permission the first time and shows the system recording indicator while it is in use. Walkthru cannot record audio without your permission.

Narration audio is written to the app’s own container alongside the guide it belongs to, exactly like the screenshots. It is never uploaded, it is not transcribed, it is not analysed for anything, and it is not used to identify you. Deleting the narration removes the audio file; deleting the guide removes it too.

Withdrawing a permission

Every permission above is revocable at any time in the iOS Settings app, under Privacy & Security or in Walkthru’s own settings entry. Turning one off stops the feature that needed it — no microphone, no narration — and affects nothing else. Because none of this data ever left your device, withdrawing a permission leaves nothing for us to delete on your behalf.

Purchases

Walkthru offers two in-app purchases. They are processed by Apple through the App Store. We never see your payment details, your Apple Account, or your name — Apple tells the app only whether an entitlement is active.

Apple’s own handling of purchase data is covered by theApple Privacy Policy.

Third-party code

Walkthru contains no third-party SDKs. There is no analytics library, no crash reporter, no advertising framework, no attribution kit and no A/B testing service. The only external code in the app is Apple’s own frameworks.

This website

This site is static. It sets no cookies, runs no analytics and embeds nothing from a third party — the fonts are served from this domain rather than from a font provider. There is no consent banner because there is nothing to consent to.

The site is hosted on Cloudflare Pages. Like any web server, Cloudflare records requests — including your IP address, the page requested, and your browser’s user agent — for delivery, security and abuse prevention. That log is Cloudflare’s, held underCloudflare’s privacy policy, and it is the only place any personal data is processed in connection with Walkthru at all. We do not use it to track, profile or identify anyone, and we build no visitor records of our own from it.

Children

Walkthru is a documentation tool intended for general audiences. It does not knowingly collect information from anyone, of any age, because it does not collect information.

Your rights

Privacy laws including the GDPR and the CCPA give you rights to access, correct, export and delete the personal data a company holds about you. We hold no personal data about you, so for us there is nothing to access, correct, export or delete — and that is a fact about how the app is built, not a policy we could quietly change. The one exception is the web server log described above, which is held by our host on the legitimate-interest basis of serving and protecting the site, not by us.

Everything the app creates lives on your device and is yours to remove: delete a guide to remove its screenshots and narration, or delete the app to remove its container and everything in it. We sell no personal information and share none, because we have none — including under the CCPA, which means there is no “Do Not Sell” request for you to make.

If you want to exercise a right anyway, or want it confirmed in writing that we hold nothing about you, write to the address in Contact below and we will reply.

Changes to this policy

If Walkthru ever gains a feature that changes any of the above — a hosted sharing option, for instance — this policy will be updated before that feature ships, and the date at the top will change. A feature that required uploading your recordings would be announced as such rather than folded quietly into an update.
