Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 28, 2026

Doodraw is built to respect your privacy. There are no user accounts, no ads, and your artwork never leaves your device unless you choose to export or share it. This policy explains the limited, pseudonymous data we do collect and why.

Doodraw is published by Alexis Chân Gridel (Écrin Digital), France ("we", "us"). Contact: support@doodraw.com

The short version

  • Your drawings stay on your device. We never upload, access, or store your artwork on our servers.
  • No account required. We don't collect your name, email address, or contact details, except the email address you give our reseller Paddle if you buy Doodraw Pro for the desktop app.
  • No ads, ever. We don't sell or rent your data, and we don't use advertising networks.
  • We collect limited anonymous usage and diagnostic data through trusted service providers, to fix bugs and improve the app.

Your creations stay local

All drawings, projects, and settings are stored locally on your device. When you export a creation (GIF, MP4, PNG), the file goes only where you choose to save or share it.

Data we collect

Apart from desktop purchases (see Paddle below), we do not collect personal information such as your name, email, or contacts. To operate and improve Doodraw, we collect limited pseudonymous data through the following service providers:

Usage analytics: PostHog (hosted in the EU). Events such as app opened, drawing started, or export completed; device model, OS version, app version, and language; approximate location (country/region, derived from your IP address); and a random identifier generated on your device. This identifier is not tied to your name or identity. Purpose: understanding which features are used and improving the app.

Crash and performance reporting: Sentry. Crash reports, performance data, and technical device information. Purpose: finding and fixing bugs.

Purchases and subscriptions: Adapty. Purchase history and subscription status (for example, whether Doodraw Pro is active), transaction information provided by the App Store or Google Play, and the same pseudonymous identifier. Purpose: unlocking Pro features, restoring purchases across devices, and providing billing support. For the desktop app, Adapty also receives the purchase status and transaction details of desktop purchases from Paddle. Mobile payments are processed entirely by Apple or Google. We never see or store your payment card details.

Desktop purchases: Paddle. When you buy Doodraw Pro for the desktop app on doodraw.com, Paddle.com, our reseller and Merchant of Record, collects your email address, country, payment details and billing information to process the payment, handle taxes, invoices and refunds, under its own privacy policy. The checkout also receives the random identifier of your copy of the app, so that the purchase unlocks Pro there. We receive your email address and the transaction details from Paddle, and use them only to provide Pro, restore it on a new computer and answer billing questions.

This website

Audience measurement: Vercel Web Analytics. When you visit doodraw.com, we count page views to know which pages are read and where visitors come from. Each page view records the page address, the referring site, your country and region, and your browser, operating system and device type. No cookies are set and nothing is stored on your device. Visitors are told apart by a hash of the request, which Vercel discards after 24 hours, so the statistics are aggregated and cannot identify you. We strip query parameters from the page address before it is sent, keeping only campaign tags (utm and ref), so the identifier of your copy of the app never reaches analytics. Purpose: understanding how the website is used and improving it.

What we don't do

  • We do not sell or rent any data.
  • We do not show ads or use advertising networks.
  • We do not track you across other companies' apps or websites.
  • We do not access, analyze, or view your artwork.

Legal bases (GDPR)

For users in the European Economic Area, we process usage and diagnostic data, and website audience statistics, on the basis of our legitimate interest in maintaining and improving Doodraw, and purchase data as necessary for the performance of our contract with you (providing the Pro features you purchased).

Data retention

Analytics and diagnostic data are retained by our service providers for limited periods and then deleted or aggregated. Purchase records are kept for as long as needed to provide your access and to meet legal and accounting obligations.

International transfers

Our providers may process data outside the EU. Where this happens, transfers are protected by appropriate safeguards such as the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or receive a copy of your data, and to object to or restrict certain processing. To exercise these rights, contact support@doodraw.com. EU users may also lodge a complaint with their supervisory authority (in France, the CNIL).

Children's privacy

Doodraw is a general-audience app. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. The limited data described above is pseudonymous and is not used to identify any user.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Updates will be posted on this page with a revised date.
