Privacy Policy
Last updated: 1 November 2026
Introduction
The PictoPy Website at pictopy.aossie.org (the Website) is committed to protecting your privacy and providing a transparent and user-friendly experience.
This Privacy Policy explains how the Website handles information when you visit it.
The Website follows a privacy-conscious and local-first approach. It is a static website: it has no user accounts, no forms, no cookies, no analytics and no advertising.
This policy covers the Website only, not the PictoPy app. The app is developed in its own repository (AOSSIE-Org/PictoPy), and any privacy information for the app is published there.
Official Downloads
The PictoPy app is officially available only from:
PictoPy is a desktop app; it is not distributed through any app store. Copies from other sources are not published by AOSSIE, and this policy does not cover them.
Information and Permissions
The Website does not ask you for personal information and does not request any device permissions.
The Website saves the following in your browser's local storage:
theme: your light or dark mode choice
This stays in your browser and is never sent to us.
Data Storage
Your website preferences (the theme choice above) are stored only in your browser. The Website has no server or database of its own, so it keeps no information about you. The request details that GitHub and the other services below receive when your browser loads the Website, and may keep in their server logs, are described under Data Sharing.
Data Sharing
The Website does not sell your personal information.
The Website does not use personal information for targeted advertising.
The Website relies on these third parties to work. Each one receives only what your browser sends to load the Website:
- GitHub Pages (hosting): GitHub receives your IP address and standard request details (such as your browser type and the page requested) whenever your browser loads the Website, and may keep them in server logs for security and operations. See GitHub's Privacy Statement.
- GitHub API (download links): your browser asks
api.github.comfor the latest PictoPy release so the download buttons point to the newest version. GitHub receives your IP address with that request. See GitHub's Privacy Statement. - Google Fonts (typography): your browser loads the Inter font from
fonts.googleapis.comandfonts.gstatic.com, so Google receives your IP address and browser details. See the Google Fonts privacy FAQ. - Unsplash (background photos): your browser loads the decorative photo grid from
images.unsplash.comandplus.unsplash.com, so Unsplash receives your IP address and browser details. See Unsplash's privacy policy.
Links on the Website (AOSSIE, GitHub, GitHub Releases downloads, Discord and social media) take you to services with their own privacy policies.
The Share button in the footer opens the platform you choose (WhatsApp, X, LinkedIn, Telegram or your email app) with the address of the page you are on, or copies that address. That platform's own privacy policy applies to what you share there. The Website does not record what you share.
The Support page links to GitHub Sponsors. If you choose to donate, you do so on GitHub, and GitHub's privacy statement applies. The Website does not receive any payment details.
Where a third party processes information, its handling of that information is governed by its own privacy policy and terms of service.
Data Security
The Website aims to minimize privacy and security risks by limiting unnecessary data collection and keeping your preferences on your device.
However, no method of electronic storage or transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Users are also responsible for maintaining the security of their devices.
Data Deletion
You can remove everything the Website stores by clearing your browser's site data for pictopy.aossie.org.
Children's Privacy
The Website is not intended to knowingly collect personal information from children where such collection is prohibited by applicable law. It does not collect personal information from any visitor.
Free Access
The Website is free to use and has no paid features.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the Website, its functionality, or applicable legal requirements.
Any updates will be made available wherever this Privacy Policy is published.
