Flash turns your notes into flashcards and a study plan. It is built to keep your information on your phone. There is no Shore account, no Shore server that holds your data, and we do not sell or rent personal information to anyone.
What the app stores
- Notes, photos and documents you choose to import, which are read on your device to make cards. If you choose cloud generation for a large document, that document is sent to our AI provider for processing and is not stored after the cards are returned. The app tells you before it does this.
- Your decks, cards, review history and exam dates.
All of this is stored on your device. If iCloud sync is on, it is also stored in your own iCloud account under Apple’s privacy terms, so it comes back when you reinstall or change phones. We cannot read your iCloud data.
Permissions it may ask for
- Camera and Photos, to capture notes. Notifications, for study reminders.
You can grant or revoke any of these at any time in iOS Settings. The app keeps working without them, with that feature turned off.
Purchases and subscriptions
Subscriptions are sold through Apple’s App Store and billed to your Apple ID. We use RevenueCat to check whether a subscription is active, which gives us an anonymous identifier for your device, the product you bought, and purchase and renewal dates. We do not receive your name, email, or payment details from Apple. Refunds are handled by Apple through your purchase history.
Analytics and advertising
To understand whether the app is working and where new users come from, we may use a privacy-respecting analytics or attribution service that receives an anonymous device identifier and app events such as “opened the app” or “started a trial”. It never receives the content you create in the app. We do not show third-party ads inside Flash, and we do not share your data with ad networks for targeting. [If you are not using an attribution or analytics SDK, delete this paragraph and say so.]
What we never collect
- Your contacts, location, or browsing history.
- The contents of your photos, notes or records, beyond processing them on your device for the feature you chose.
- Anything from other apps on your phone.
Good to know
Flash is intended for users aged 13 and over. If you are under 18, please use it with a parent or guardian’s permission. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13; if you believe a child has used Flash, write to us and we will help remove any data.
Deleting your data
Delete the app and its data is removed from your phone. To remove the iCloud copy too, open iOS Settings, tap your name, then iCloud, then Manage Storage, and delete Flash. Because we hold no copy, there is nothing further for us to delete; if you contact us, we can confirm that.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, export or delete personal information, or to object to certain processing. Because your data lives on your device, you can do all of these yourself in the app and in iOS Settings. For anything we do hold (for example a support email you sent us), write to hello@shoreai.io and we will respond within 30 days.
Changes
If this policy changes in a way that matters, the app will tell you on its next launch and this page will show a new effective date.
