Privacy Policy
bitglass ("we") makes the iPhone app PASS LOOP and runs the website babayagaapps.com. This policy explains what information they handle. It is also published to meet Article 30 of Korea's Personal Information Protection Act.
- PASS LOOP has no account, no server of ours, no ads and no analytics or tracking.
- Your decks, cards and study history stay on your iPhone. They are never sent to us.
- Features that use Apple services — weather, city search and purchases — are handled by Apple. The app never reads your device location (GPS).
- The website collects no visitor statistics. Only the hosting provider's server logs exist, and it sets no cookies.
1. What we handle and why
The app — kept only on your iPhone (never sent to us)
| Information | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Decks and cards, images and audio you attach, the contents of Anki deck files (.apkg/.colpkg) and CSV files you import | Storing and showing your cards |
| Study history (ratings, review schedule, study time), notes, deck options, reminder settings | Spaced-repetition (FSRS) scheduling, stats and study reminders |
| Looplet House progress (coins, decorations, journey, photos of story scenes) and display settings | The companion and decorating features |
| Listen Mode settings (voice, speed, think time) | Reading cards aloud with the voices built into your iPhone |
| The city you pick for weather (name, coordinates, time zone) and cached weather | Showing the weather outside Looplet House (optional) |
| Purchase status cache (Ultra ownership, a timestamp used to check the trial) | Providing Ultra features |
| Drafts of AI requests (topic, card count, type, deck name) | Making cards with an outside AI |
The app — handled by Apple services
| Feature | Sent to Apple | When |
|---|---|---|
| Weather (Apple WeatherKit) | The representative coordinates of the city you picked — not your device's actual location | Only after you set a weather city; at most every 30 minutes while Looplet House is on screen |
| City search (Apple Maps) | The city name you type and, when needed, the chosen city's coordinates (to find its time zone) | When you search for a weather city |
| Purchases (App Store) | Purchase, trial and restore requests. Apple processes payment; the app never receives payment details. If you use Family Sharing, Apple shares Ultra with your family group. | At launch and when you buy or restore |
Apple handles this information under its own privacy policy (apple.com/legal/privacy). The app does not ask for location permission and never reads GPS location. Without a weather city, no weather request is made. Study reminders are local notifications scheduled on your iPhone; there is no push server. Reading aloud uses your iPhone's voices and sends nothing.
The app — when you send something yourself
- Making cards with an outside AI: the app never calls an AI. It copies a request to your clipboard and opens the AI app or site you choose; whatever you paste there is handled under that service's policy.
- Sharing, exporting and backup files: .apkg, CSV and backup files (.passloopbackup) go wherever you choose (Files, iCloud Drive, AirDrop and so on). Backup files are not encrypted, so keep them somewhere safe.
- Links: links inside cards open in your browser when you tap them.
The website
| Information | Purpose | Handled by |
|---|---|---|
| Server logs (IP address, browser details, time, requested address) | Serving the site, security and abuse prevention | GitHub (GitHub Pages hosting) |
| Your email address and message, if you write to us | Replying to you | Us |
The website's sound, day/night and beret settings are stored only in your browser. The deck-file demo on the home page reads your .apkg file inside your browser only and uploads nothing. The website sets no cookies and uses no analytics or advertising.
2. How long we keep it, and deletion
- App data stays on your iPhone until you delete it or delete the app, which removes the app's storage. Deleted decks can be restored from the trash or deleted permanently.
- Automatic backups: at most once a day the app backs up your study data on the device and keeps the latest 7 (images and audio excluded). When you restore from a backup, your previous data is kept on the device as a safety copy (the latest 3). All of these live in the app's storage and are removed with the app.
- Copies outside the app — iPhone/iCloud device backups, files you export, text you paste into an AI — are under your control.
- Emails are kept for one year after we reply, then deleted without delay.
- Website logs follow the hosting providers' retention policies.
3. Sharing with third parties
We do not share personal information with third parties. We never receive your app data.
4. Service providers and transfers abroad (website)
| Recipient | Country | Information | When and how | Purpose | Retention |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| GitHub, Inc. | USA | Server logs | Over the network when you visit | Hosting (GitHub Pages) | Provider's policy |
If you don't want this, you can avoid the website. It doesn't affect the app.
5. Your rights
Everything the app stores is on your iPhone, so you can view, change and delete it in the app. For anything related to your emails, you can ask us to show, correct, delete or stop processing it at babayaga@babayagaapps.com, and we'll act without delay.
6. How we protect information
- App data is protected by the iOS app sandbox and device encryption and is never sent to a server of ours.
- The screens that show cards block outside network access.
- Backup files are checked file by file with hashes before they are restored.
- Support email is kept in an account only we can access.
7. Cookies and trackers
The app has no cookies, advertising identifiers or tracking tools. The website sets no cookies; its sound, day/night and beret settings stay in your browser's storage.
8. Children
PASS LOOP has no account and we receive no personal information, so we don't ask for age. If a child under 14 uses outside AI services or links, a parent or guardian should check them together.
