Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 2026

Wobbly Generative Art ("Wobbly", "the App") is developed by Wobbly. This privacy policy explains how the App handles your information.

What Wobbly Itself Collects

The App itself collects zero user data. Specifically:

No accounts or sign-in — the App has no user accounts
No first-party analytics or tracking — no Firebase, no Mixpanel, no telemetry
No location data — not requested or used
No camera or microphone — not requested or used
No contacts, calendar, or health data
No cookies — the internal WebView loads only local bundled files
No data leaves your device except for the single ad request described below (free users only)

Advertising (Free Users Only)

Free users see one native ad in the gallery, placed at the top of the locked wobbles section. The ad is served by Google AdMob in non-personalized mode (the SDK's npa=1 flag). This means:

No App Tracking Transparency prompt — Wobbly does not request permission to track you
No IDFA — the Identifier for Advertisers is never read or transmitted
No personalized advertising — ads are not selected based on your interests, browsing history, or activity in other apps
No cross-app or cross-site tracking by Wobbly

The Google Mobile Ads SDK collects standard non-personalized advertising metrics. As declared in the App's privacy manifest, these include:

Device ID — used by AdMob for non-personalized advertising and analytics; not linked to your identity, not used for tracking
Product Interaction — taps and impressions on the ad itself
Advertising Data — non-personalized ad-targeting signals
Crash Data and Other Diagnostic Data — for SDK stability analytics

None of this data is linked to your identity or used to track you across apps or websites. Google's handling of this data is governed by the Google Privacy Policy.

Wobbly+ removes ads entirely. Wobbly+ users make no network requests for advertising, and the Google Mobile Ads SDK is not initialised for them. Mac (Mac Catalyst) users also never see ads, because the Google Mobile Ads SDK does not support Mac and is excluded from the Mac build.

Data Stored Locally on Your Device

The following data is stored locally and never leaves your device:

Favorites: Your saved favorite wobbles
Per-wobble settings: Color theme, parameter values, and gyroscope toggle for each wobble
Purchase state: Whether you have purchased Wobbly+, verified against Apple's StoreKit

This data is removed when you delete the App.

Device Permissions

Photo Library (Add Only): Requested only when you export a live wallpaper. Write-only access — Wobbly cannot read your existing photos.
Gyroscope / Accelerometer: Used for motion-based interaction. No iOS permission dialog is required for this sensor.

In-App Purchases

Wobbly+ is a one-time, non-consumable in-app purchase handled entirely by Apple through StoreKit 2. Wobbly does not process, store, or have access to your payment information. Apple's own privacy policy governs payment processing.

Children's Privacy

Wobbly does not knowingly collect any personal information from children under 13. Wobbly itself collects no data; the AdMob ads served to free users are non-personalized and do not use the IDFA. The App is rated 4+ on the App Store.

Third-Party Services

Wobbly uses the following third-party services:

Apple StoreKit 2 — handles the Wobbly+ in-app purchase. Governed by Apple's privacy policy.
Google Mobile Ads SDK (AdMob) — serves the single non-personalized ad shown to free iOS users in the gallery. See the "Advertising" section above. Governed by Google's privacy policy. Not included in the Mac (Mac Catalyst) build.

All generative art animations themselves run entirely on your device with no network dependency.
