Taplot for Android
Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 8, 2026
This policy explains how Vispie Inc collects, uses, shares, retains, and deletes information in the Taplot Android app. It covers your account, interactive story activity, app preferences, and the services needed to operate the app.
Information we collect and use
You provide your email, password, display name, and preferences when creating or using an account. Taplot records story choices and account-linked library and progress activity as you use these features. Authentication, database, and update requests automatically send technical request information and app installation identifiers. Our service providers receive your IP address, may derive approximate location from it, and process crash or error information when present. Information can be linked to your account or app installation.
We use this information to operate the app, manage accounts, deliver stories and updates, save your activity, and protect the service. Technical information also helps diagnose failures and monitor app health. Your avatar, appearance, and autoplay preferences customize your experience.
| Information | What it includes and why we use it |
|---|---|
| Name | The display name you provide, used for your account profile. |
| Email address | Your account email, used for sign-in, account access, and communications you request. |
| User IDs | Your account identifier, used to associate your profile, library, progress, and choices with your account. |
| Other personal information | Your authentication credential is processed by Supabase for account access. Account preferences, including avatar color, appearance, and autoplay settings, operate and personalize the app. |
| Device or other IDs | App installation identifiers used to deliver and manage app updates and support app diagnostics. |
| App interactions | Story viewing, playback, and library interactions used to operate these features and save your progress. |
| Purchase history | Your Tapes purchases (store transaction ID, pack, date) and the choices you unlock with Tapes, used to credit your Tapes, keep unlocked choices on your account, prevent duplicate charges, and handle refunds. Google Play processes your payment; Taplot never receives your card or payment details. |
| Other actions | Your story choices, interactive actions, saved stories, and endings, used to provide the story experience and choice percentages. |
| Crash logs | Crash information used to identify and fix app failures. |
| Diagnostics | Error information and operational request logs, including IP addresses and technical metadata, used to operate and secure authentication, diagnose problems, and keep the app and update delivery working. |
| Approximate location | Location derived from IP addresses in service requests and operational logs, used to operate and secure the service. Taplot does not request GPS location. |
If you contact support, we also use the information you choose to include to respond to your request. The app does not upload your photos, videos, contacts, or local search text.
Service providers and sharing
We use Supabase for authentication and database services, and Expo / EAS for app build, update delivery, and related operational services. These providers process information needed to perform those services on our behalf. We require providers handling Taplot personal information to protect it consistently with this policy and applicable law. In-app purchases are processed by Google Play; Taplot receives a signed record of each purchase to credit your Tapes, not your payment details.
We may disclose information where required by law or necessary to protect the security of the service and people's rights. We do not sell your personal information. Taplot has no advertising and does not use your data for cross-app or cross-website tracking.
Retention and deletion
We retain your account and associated profile, library, story progress, choices, and preferences while your account is active so these features continue to work.
Purchase records (store transaction ID, pack, Tapes amount, and date) are financial records. When you delete your account, they are detached from it and kept only to prevent a purchase from being credited twice and for accounting and legal obligations; your Tapes balance and unlocked choices are deleted with the account.
When account deletion completes, Taplot removes your authentication account and its associated profile, saved library, story progress, preferences, and account-linked choices from the active database, and signs you out.
Choices submitted while signed out are stored without an account ID to calculate the choice percentages shown in stories. These records remain separate from account data, are kept until the associated story data is removed, and are not removed by deleting an account.
Operational logs, installation-related service records, and backups may retain residual information under the providers' retention controls. Access is restricted, and these records are used for service security, diagnostics, recovery, or legal obligations rather than advertising or personalization. Information that must be retained by law is retained only for the required purpose. Uninstalling the app alone does not delete your account.
Your choices and account deletion
Within Taplot, open Profile → Settings → Delete account, enter DELETE, and confirm.
You can also delete your account and associated data in a browser. Open account settings, sign in with your existing Taplot email and password, and use Account → Delete account. You do not need to install or reinstall the app.
You can change your profile and app preferences in the app or browser account settings. For questions about your information, privacy, or account access, contact support@vispie.com.
Security and children
We use access controls and service-provider security measures to protect information. Authentication, database, and app update requests use encrypted HTTPS connections. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure. Taplot is not designed for children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided personal information, please contact us so we can address it.
Updates and contact
We may update this policy as Taplot changes. The date above identifies the latest revision. For privacy or support questions, contact Vispie Inc at support@vispie.com.
