Version-specific privacy details
Version 5.0 (build 10)
This guide covers version 5.0. The current website catalog lists version 5.0. Check the App Store for availability on your device; the features below require version 5.0 or later.
Gridproof has no account, advertising, tracking or developer upload service. Projects, decisions, camera metadata and resized previews are local. In version 5.0, saved proof-round PDFs, decision CSVs and photo-number maps are also stored locally. Device backups follow your Apple settings.
Photos and Files imports read only the items you choose. Original photographs are never edited or deleted. Backups, contact sheets, saved proof rounds and CSV files can contain private photographs, file names, camera data, captions and studio contact information. They leave the device through destinations you select, whose own policies apply.
In 4.0 and later, removed projects stay in Recently removed until restored or permanently deleted. In 5.0 their saved proof rounds remain with them. Removing a saved round deletes its local files, not copies shared elsewhere. Removing the app deletes its local data. Exported files are independent copies. Support and privacy links open this public website.
