Lyrko is committed to protecting the privacy of users who use our minimalist iOS puzzle tool application. We designed the App to operate without requiring user accounts, ensuring that your experience remains simple, private, and focused on creating personalized puzzles. All data processing occurs locally on your iOS device.
It is a core commitment of Lyrko that we do not collect any facial information of users at all, and this commitment runs through the entire process of your use of the App. Facial information refers to all data related to the user's face that can be used to identify the user's identity, including but not limited to facial images, facial feature data, facial recognition templates, facial contour information, and any other data that can reflect or distinguish facial characteristics. Whether you are uploading local images, creating puzzles, saving progress, adjusting settings, or using any other features of the App, the App will never actively or passively capture, extract, or record any facial information from you or the images you upload. All information generated during your use of the App is only retained locally on your iOS device. When you take the initiative to delete any information (including uploaded images, puzzle progress, settings, etc.) through the App's built-in functions or by uninstalling the App, the deletion will take effect immediately and permanently on your device, and the deleted information cannot be recovered, as we do not maintain any backups of your local data.
First and foremost, Lyrko is built to respect your privacy by minimizing data collection. We do not require you to create an account, log in, or provide any personal information to use the App. We also do not collect:
Most importantly, we do not collect any facial information of users. This includes but is not limited to facial images captured through your device's camera, facial feature data extracted from any images (whether uploaded by you or otherwise), facial recognition data, or any other information related to your face that can be used to identify your identity. The App has no access to or ability to collect facial information in any form. We will never design or add any functions that involve collecting facial information, and will never use any technology to extract or identify facial information from the content you upload or the operations you perform. This commitment is unwavering, and all data you generate during use is only stored locally on your device.
The only information processed by Lyrko is stored locally on your iOS device and is never sent to our servers. This local data includes:
It should be emphasized again that even when collecting and processing local information, we do not collect any facial information of users. The App does not have any function to capture, extract, or store facial information, and all local data processing is limited to the necessary content for the App's normal operation, without involving any facial-related data. Whether it is the images you upload, the puzzle progress you save, or the usage data generated, the App will never extract or identify any facial information from it. All data is only stored locally on your device, and will be permanently deleted when you take the initiative to delete it.
When you use the App, you may upload local images from your device’s photo library to create puzzles. These images remain stored on your device at all times. We do not copy, upload, or back up these images to any external servers. The App only accesses your photo library with your explicit permission, which you grant through your device’s iOS settings. You can revoke this permission at any time by adjusting your device’s privacy settings, though this will prevent you from uploading new images to the App.
When you upload images containing facial content, the App will only process the images locally on your device for puzzle creation purposes, and will never extract, identify, collect, or store any facial information contained in the images. The App does not have any facial recognition or facial feature extraction functions, and will not perform any operations related to facial information on the uploaded images. The images you upload are only used to generate puzzles locally, and will never be used to collect facial information. All uploaded images remain on your device, and when you actively delete the images or the puzzles created from them, the corresponding content (including any facial-related content in the images) will be permanently deleted from your device, with no residual copies retained.
To provide a seamless experience, the App stores your puzzle progress, customizations, and preferences locally on your device. This includes:
The puzzle progress and settings stored locally do not contain any facial information, and the App will never collect or associate any facial information with this data. We do not use any technology to link your puzzle settings or progress to your facial characteristics, and will never collect any facial information when saving or updating this data. All data in this section is only related to the App's functional operation, and has no connection to facial information. When you actively delete this data through the App's "Clear Data" feature or by uninstalling the App, the deletion is permanent, and no related data will be retained.
All data processed by Lyrko is stored locally on your iOS device. We do not use cloud storage, servers, or any external platforms to store your information. You have full control over this data, and you can delete it at any time by using the App’s built-in "Clear Data" feature (found in the Settings section) or by uninstalling the App entirely. Uninstalling the App will permanently delete all locally stored puzzle progress, settings, and related data from your device.
We do not collect any facial information, so there is no possibility of facial information being stored in any form. All data stored locally on your device does not contain any facial-related content, and we do not have any storage space or function to store facial information. The local storage of data is only for the normal operation of the App, and is strictly limited to the content necessary for puzzle creation, progress saving, and function optimization. When you take the initiative to delete your data (through "Clear Data" or uninstalling the App), all locally stored data will be permanently deleted from your device, and no data (including any non-existent facial information) will be retained. We do not maintain any backups of your local data, so once deleted, the data cannot be recovered, which further ensures that your facial information (which we do not collect) will not be leaked or misused. All data is only stored locally on your device.
You have complete control over the information processed by Lyrko on your device. You can:
Your control over information also includes the absolute security of your facial information, as we do not collect any facial information at all. You do not need to take any additional measures to protect your facial information when using the App, because the App itself has no function to collect facial information. When you use the above methods to delete information, all data stored locally on your device will be permanently deleted, including any content that may contain facial features (if any) in the images you upload. The deletion is irreversible, and we do not maintain any backups, so your facial information (which we do not collect) will never be retained or recovered. You have full autonomy over all your local data, and we will never interfere with your right to delete information, nor will we collect any facial information during the deletion process.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the App’s functionality or to comply with evolving iOS standards. When we make updates, we will revise the "Last Updated" date at the top of this policy and notify you within the App via a pop-up message the next time you open it. We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we protect your privacy. Your continued use of the App after the updated policy takes effect constitutes your acceptance of the changes.
Any updates to this Privacy Policy will not change our core commitment to not collecting any facial information. We will never add any provisions related to collecting facial information in the updated policy, nor will we add any functions that involve collecting facial information in the App. Even if the policy is updated, we will still strictly adhere to the principle of not collecting facial information, ensuring that all data remains locally on your device, and will never be shared with any third party. When you actively delete information, the deletion will still be permanent, and no facial information (which we do not collect) will be retained. We will clearly inform you of any changes to the policy, but the commitment to not collecting facial information will remain unchanged.
Thank you for choosing Lyrko. We are dedicated to maintaining your privacy and providing you with a simple, enjoyable puzzle experience.
