Privacy Policy

Last Updated: November 9, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how GyroDeck mobile (iOS and Android) and desktop (Windows, macOS, and Linux) applications handle sensor data, device permissions, optional cloud synchronization, third-party service providers, and user data deletion rights.

1. Local Network Transport & Core Principle

GyroDeck is engineered to transmit your mobile device’s motion sensors, capacitive touch inputs, and second-screen video stream strictly across your local Wi-Fi network directly to your computer:

Motion Sensor Data: Gyroscope and accelerometer readings are sent directly to your computer over your local network (UDP); they are never uploaded to external servers.
Second Screen Streaming: Sub-screen video frames streamed from your computer to your mobile device are processed in real time in memory over your local network and are never recorded or stored externally.
Camera Permission: Used exclusively on your mobile device to scan pairing or login QR codes displayed on the GyroDeck Desktop app. Camera frames are never saved or transmitted.
Local Network Permission: Used solely to discover your desktop computer on the same Wi-Fi network and maintain a low-latency controller connection.

2. Optional Cloud Account & Mobile-Only GyroDeck Pro Sync

You do not need an account to use GyroDeck’s core controller capabilities. However, you may optionally sign in to back up custom controller profiles or synchronize your GyroDeck Pro entitlement from the mobile app to the free desktop companion app:

Account Data: If you choose to create an account, only your authentication email address, unique user identifier (UUID), display name, and saved controller/profile preferences are stored in our cloud database.
Mobile Store Purchases Only: All GyroDeck Pro subscriptions and one-time purchases are processed exclusively through the Apple App Store (iOS/iPadOS) or Google Play Store (Android) within the GyroDeck mobile application. The GyroDeck Desktop application is free and does not process payments. GyroDeck never receives or stores your credit card or payment details; we only verify anonymous cryptographic purchase receipts and entitlement status.
Crash Diagnostics & Push Notifications: Anonymous technical crash logs and device push tokens (for optional service notifications) may be processed to maintain application stability.

3. Infrastructure & Service Providers

To provide optional cloud synchronization, receipt validation, and stability diagnostics, GyroDeck relies on the following industry-standard processors under strict data-protection agreements:

Supabase: Cloud authentication, encrypted cross-device QR login sessions, and user profile synchronization.
RevenueCat: Apple App Store (StoreKit) and Google Play Billing subscription receipt validation and cross-platform entitlement synchronization.
Google Firebase (Crashlytics, Analytics & Cloud Messaging): Anonymous crash reporting, aggregated stability metrics, and push notification delivery on supported platforms.
Resend: Delivery of transactional verification codes (OTP), password recovery emails, and optional release announcements.

4. Data Retention & Permanent Account Deletion Rights

Your account data is retained only for as long as your account remains active. You can permanently delete your account and all associated cloud data at any time through either of the following methods:

Instant In-App Deletion (Mobile & Desktop):
- Open the Settings menu inside GyroDeck.
- Navigate to the Account section and select Delete Account Permanently.
- Upon confirmation, your authentication record, cloud profile, custom backgrounds, and linked sessions are immediately and irreversibly erased from our database.
Web / Email Deletion Request (Without the App Installed):
- If you have already uninstalled the app, send a deletion request from your registered email address to support@gyrodeck.com with the subject "Delete My Account". Your account and all associated cloud records will be permanently erased within 48 hours.

Deleting your GyroDeck cloud account does not automatically cancel an active Apple App Store or Google Play Store subscription. Please manage or cancel active store subscriptions in your device’s Apple ID or Google Play account settings.

5. Zero Third-Party Advertising or Data Selling

GyroDeck contains no third-party advertising networks, behavioral profiling trackers, or data-broker SDKs. Your personal data is never sold, rented, or shared for advertising purposes.
