Inkpot Privacy Policy
Inkpot is a diary app for home tuition teachers that keeps track of fees, payments and attendance. This policy explains what the app does with information. The short version: everything you enter stays on your phone. We do not collect it, receive it, or share it.
What the app stores
To work as a fee register, the app stores the information you type into it:
- Your tuition's name, your name and your phone number (printed on receipts)
- Your batches, class timings and fees
- Your students' names and their parents' phone numbers
- Bills, payments received and attendance
This information is saved only in the app's private storage on your device.
What we collect
Nothing. Inkpot has no account, no server and no internet permission. The app contains no advertising, no analytics and no tracking code. The developer never receives any of your data.
When information leaves your phone
Only when you choose to send it:
- Receipts: when you tap “Send receipt”, the app makes a receipt image and opens Android's share sheet. You choose where it goes (for example WhatsApp).
- Reminders and absence notes: the app opens WhatsApp (or WhatsApp's web page, if WhatsApp is not installed) with a message already written to that parent. Nothing is sent until you press send yourself.
- Backup: “Export backup” saves a file to a place you pick, such as your phone's storage or Google Drive.
Once you share something with another app or service, that app's own privacy policy applies to it.
Permissions
- Notifications: used only for the reminders you switch on (class-time attendance and fee due day). They are off until you turn them on.
- Run at startup: used only to set your reminders again after the phone restarts.
The app does not access your contacts, location, camera, microphone, photos or files, apart from a backup file you choose yourself.
Keeping and deleting your data
Your data stays on your phone until you delete it. Uninstalling the app, or clearing its data in Android Settings, deletes all of it. Automatic Android cloud backup is turned off for this app, so no copy is made anywhere else unless you export a backup yourself. Because we hold no data, there is nothing for us to delete on our side.
Children
Inkpot is made for teachers, not for children, and is not directed to children. Students' names are entered by the teacher and stay on the teacher's phone.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
