The Colour Rail
The Colour Rail collects no personal data and shares none with anyone. Nothing you do in the app is sent to us or to anyone else.
That isn't only a promise. The app has no internet permission, so Android won't let it connect to a network at all. You can check this on the app's page in your phone's settings, or in the permission list on Google Play.
What the app stores, and where
- Your wardrobe: for each garment you photograph, a small downscaled thumbnail, the colour it read, its name, and how the camera saw the light (white-balance readings). These are kept in the app's private storage on your phone.
- Saved looks: the colours, scheme and settings for each look you save.
- Preferences: the last base colour, scheme, intensity and finish you used, so the app opens where you left it.
Full-size photos are never stored. Camera frames are read for their colour in memory and then discarded. Nothing is added to your photo gallery.
Camera and photos
The app asks for camera permission when you tap Photograph a garment, never at launch. If you would rather not grant it, you can choose an existing picture with Android's photo picker, which gives the app only the one photo you pick and needs no storage permission.
Backups
If you have turned on Android backup, Android may include your wardrobe, saved looks and preferences in your device backup so they move to a new phone. That backup is run by Android and your Google account under Google's terms. We can't see it and receive nothing from it. You can turn backup off in your phone's settings.
Analytics, advertising and accounts
There are none. No analytics, no crash-reporting service, no advertising, no tracking, no sign-in.
Deleting your data
You can remove a garment or a saved look in the app. To remove everything, uninstall the app, or go to Settings → Apps → The Colour Rail → Storage → Clear storage. Because we never hold a copy, there is nothing for us to delete on our side.
Children
The app is not directed at children, and it collects no data from anyone.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be published at this address with a new effective date. If the app ever needed to collect data, which would first require adding an internet permission, this page would say so before that version was released.
