Thokey Privacy Policy
Keyboard input stays private
We do not collect or send your keyboard input, passwords, or messages. The main app separately uses AppsFlyer for advertising measurement and app analytics.
01. Keyboard Input Protection
The keyboard and the main app have different data practices:
- We do NOT collect any keyboard input, typed text, passwords, or messages.
- Names, email addresses, and contact details are not included in our AppsFlyer events.
- Keyboard input, local files, and precise GPS location are not used for analytics.
- AppsFlyer runs in the main app, not in the keyboard extension, and does not receive typed content.
02. Purpose of iOS 'Full Access'
On iOS, third-party keyboards require 'Full Access' permission solely to play key audio and trigger haptics.
• Sole Purpose: Strictly limited to playing mechanical switch sound effects and haptic vibration locally.
• Zero Network Access: The keyboard extension has no internet access and never sends data to any server.
03. AppsFlyer: Advertising Measurement & Analytics
We use AppsFlyer Ltd. to measure app installs, advertising performance, and app use. The main app sends installation/session information, paywall views, setup completion, theme/switch selections, and trial/purchase events (product ID, price, and currency where applicable).
AppsFlyer may process app/device identifiers (such as AppsFlyer ID and IDFV), IP address and approximate region inferred from it, device/OS/app versions, language, timestamps, and event data. The current iOS app uses the Strict SDK and does not collect IDFA. Typed content, passwords, and payment-card details are not sent to AppsFlyer.
These data are transmitted from the main app to AppsFlyer for the stated purposes and may be processed outside your country. AppsFlyer explains its processing, safeguards, and privacy rights in the policy linked below.
AppsFlyer services privacy policy04. Feature Requests, Votes, Leaderboards & Purchases
When you vote for a requested feature, the vote is saved in Apple iCloud (CloudKit) with an anonymous ID that Apple assigns for this app. We cannot identify you from this ID.
If you send a feature or theme request, we receive your message along with the app version, the app's language, your device model, and your iOS version. It is saved in Apple iCloud (CloudKit) with the same anonymous ID, other users cannot see it, and we use it only to improve the app. To have a request deleted, contact us.
If you are signed in to Game Center, the number of keycap taps in the widget and app and your archery scores are sent to Apple Game Center for the leaderboards and shown to other players with your Game Center nickname. Nothing you type on the keyboard is included, and we do not store these scores ourselves. Sign out of Game Center in iOS Settings to stop this.
Purchases and subscriptions are processed by Apple through the App Store. We do not receive your payment details.
Apple Privacy Policy05. Data Retention & Destruction
Local keyboard settings stay on your device. Analytics already sent to AppsFlyer are handled under its retention terms and applicable law; uninstalling the app does not automatically delete those data. Contact us to request deletion.
06. User Control & Rights
You can revoke keyboard access in iOS settings or uninstall the app. For data access, deletion, or objections to analytics, contact contact@paulusfoundation.com. AppsFlyer also accepts privacy and measurement opt-out requests at privacy@appsflyer.com.
