Privacy Policy
Last updated: 30 September 2026
Tiny Squares ("the app") is a painting app for children, developed by Simon Grimm ("we", "us"). We built it so that children can play safely, and that starts with not collecting their data.
The short version
- We do not collect, store or share any personal data.
- There are no ads, no analytics, no tracking and no third-party code (SDKs) in the app.
- There are no accounts, no chat and no way to contact other people in the app.
- The app works fully offline.
Data stored on your device
Paintings, settings and progress are saved only on your device so your child can continue where they left off. This data never leaves the device and is not sent to us. Deleting the app removes it. If you use iCloud or device backups, Apple may include this data in your backup under Apple's own privacy policy.
Purchases
The app offers an optional one-time in-app purchase, protected by a parental gate. Purchases are processed entirely by Apple through the App Store. We do not receive your name, payment details or any other personal information. Apple only tells the app whether the purchase has been made. See Apple's Privacy Policy for how Apple handles your data.
Children's privacy
Tiny Squares is designed for children and is listed in the App Store Kids category. Because we do not collect any personal information from anyone, including children, we comply with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Links to the outside world and purchases are placed behind a parental gate.
