The short version: Nana’s apps do their work on the device in front of you, whether that is a Mac or an iPhone. We don’t track you, and the only personal data we ever see is what you send us yourself.
In plain words. The website sets no cookies and runs no analytics. The apps do their work on your own device and never send your files, your photos or your reading anywhere. Two things do leave the machine, and neither of them is your work: a licence check when you activate a paid copy of a Mac app, and what the paid iPhone apps ask Apple’s App Store — what is on offer, what you already own, and the payment itself if you buy. Nana’s Level does not even do that much, because it has no way of reaching the internet at all, and Nana’s Photo Cleaner has no networking code in it either: its dealings with the App Store are handled by iOS on its behalf. We hold your details only if you email us or buy a licence, and then only for as long as we need them.

We only process personal data where we have a lawful basis under Article 6 of the GDPR:
| Situation | Data | Why (lawful basis) |
|---|---|---|
| You email us, or use the bug report / feature request form | Your name, email address and whatever you write, plus the app and system version you provide | To answer you and fix the problem — legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f)), or performance of a contract if you are a customer (Art. 6(1)(b)) |
| You buy a licence directly from us | Email address, name or company, country, tax identifiers where required, and the payment record | Performance of the sales contract (Art. 6(1)(b)) and our legal accounting and tax duties (Art. 6(1)(c)) |
| You buy through the App Store | We receive no personal data from Apple — only anonymous sales reports | Not applicable |
We never sell your data, and we don’t use it for advertising or profiling. We don’t send marketing emails unless you explicitly ask us to.
Nana’s makes apps for two kinds of machine, and they do not all work the same way — the three iPhone apps differ from each other as much as they differ from the Macs — so this section takes them one app at a time.
Both are native macOS applications. They analyse files, disk usage and — in the case of the Teleprompter — microphone input, in order to do the job you asked for.
All of that processing happens locally on your Mac. File names, file contents, scan results and speech are never transmitted to us and are never stored on our servers. We cannot see them, and we have built the apps so that we cannot.
Nana’s Level is a free spirit level for iPhone. It reads the phone’s own motion sensors to work out how the device is tilted, and that is the whole of what it does.
The app has no networking code in it at all. It makes no requests of any kind, to us or to anyone else, so there is no moment at which it could collect, store or send anything about you. There is no account, no sign-in, no analytics, no advertising and nothing to buy inside it, and there is no licence check either, because the app is free.
Everything the app remembers — your units, the theme, the language, the zero offset you saved and the sensor calibration you ran — is kept locally on the phone in the app’s own storage. Deleting the app deletes all of it, and none of it ever reached us in the first place.
Nana’s Focus is a reading app for people who find it hard to stay with a page. Your library, your highlights, the review cards made from them, your decks, your reading progress and your settings live in the app’s own container on the phone, and nowhere else.
There is no account, no sign-in and no server behind this app. We run no backend for it, so there is no place your reading could be sent to even if someone asked us for it. The privacy manifest the app ships with declares no tracking at all and no collected data types.
What you bring in is read on the phone and stays there. When you pick a PDF, EPUB, MOBI, DOCX or plain text file through the system document picker — or simply paste text in — the app reads the words out of it and keeps that text, with any cover and illustrations, in its own container. Your original file is not taken over: it stays wherever you keep it, and removing the app removes the copy the app made, not the document you started from. Either way, nothing about it is uploaded.
The only traffic leaving the phone goes to Apple’s App Store. The app asks the store two things — what is on offer, and what you already own — and it asks them each time it starts, even if you never buy anything. The third thing it asks is to take the payment, if you decide to buy. Nana’s Focus opens into a trial counted on the device itself, with no card and no account behind it; afterwards the full app unlocks either by a single payment or by a monthly subscription, and both unlock exactly the same thing. All of it runs through Apple’s StoreKit, which means Apple takes the payment and we never see your card, your billing address or anything else about how you paid. Restoring a purchase on a new phone asks Apple that same question and nothing more.
Where the app drafts review questions, it does so on your phone. On devices that offer Apple’s on-device model, you can ask Nana’s Focus to turn chapters you picked into practice questions. That work happens on the device through Apple’s FoundationModels framework: your text is not sent to us, and it does not go off to any service to be processed. On devices where the model is unavailable, the feature is hidden and everything else works as normal.
Reminders are local and optional. The app can remind you to read at a time you choose. iOS schedules that reminder on the phone itself — it never passes through us — and refusing the permission leaves every other part of the app working.
Nana’s Photo Cleaner finds the photos and videos filling up your iPhone and helps you get the space back. It has three parts: Sort, where you go through your library a month at a time and file photos onto two piles; Room, where it scans and offers ten tools; and Files, where it looks at folders you point it at yourself.
It is the one Nana’s app that is handed your entire photo library, and it is worth being precise about what that means. The app asks iOS for full read and write access to Photos, because it cannot count duplicates, judge which of five shots came out best or remove anything without it. If you grant the limited access iOS offers instead — only the photos you pick — the app works on that selection and nothing else, and it notices when you change the selection and throws its old results away rather than showing you numbers that no longer apply.
Every photograph stays on your phone. The app contains no networking code at all: no requests, no sockets, no endpoints, and it depends on no third-party libraries of any kind — only Apple’s own frameworks. There is nothing in it that could upload a picture, and nothing in it that was written by anyone who might. There is no account, no sign-in, no advertising identifier, no device identifier and no installation number, so it has no way of telling your phone apart from anybody else’s. There is no analytics and no crash reporting.
The work that looks clever is done by your phone. Deciding that five photographs are the same picture, and which of them is sharpest, is done on the device with the image-analysis features built into iOS, falling back to a calculation the app performs itself. Shrinking a video or a photo is a re-encode carried out by the phone’s own hardware. No image is ever sent away to be examined or processed, and there is no server that could receive one.
What the app keeps, it keeps in its own container on the phone. That is: which photos you put on which pile, which ones you marked as never-to-be-touched, a short history of past clean-ups (dates, counts and megabytes), your settings, and a bookmark for each folder you gave it access to in Files. Photos are referred to only by the local reference iOS gives them on that device. No image data, no EXIF metadata and no location information is stored by the app or leaves it. Deleting the app deletes all of it. The one route out of the phone that exists is your own encrypted iOS backup, which covers every app’s container and is under your control, not ours.
Nothing is deleted for good, and nothing is deleted without you. Every removal in the app means moved to Recently Deleted, where iOS keeps it for thirty days; the app has no way to delete a photo permanently and no way to open that album for you. iOS also puts up its own confirmation before any photo is removed, which means the app genuinely cannot delete a picture without your finger on the screen. In Files, anything you are unsure about goes into a box that holds it for seven days before letting go. That box is a move within the app’s own storage, not a copy sent anywhere.
Two things do involve Apple, and it is fairer to name them than to hide behind “nothing leaves the phone”. First, if your photos live in iCloud, the phone fetches your own originals from your own iCloud library when the app needs to show you a full-size picture or shrink one. That traffic runs between your phone and your Apple Account through iOS itself; the app neither sees nor controls it, and nothing goes to us. Second, buying, restoring and cancelling run through Apple’s App Store. Apple takes the payment and we never see your card, your billing address or anything else about how you paid. Whether you have paid is checked against the receipt Apple has already signed and placed on the device, which is why the app keeps working offline and after a reinstall.
Permissions it does not ask for. No location, no camera, no microphone, no contacts, no calendar and no health data. Notifications are offered only if you turn on the weekly screenshot reminder yourself, and the reminder is scheduled by iOS on the phone with a fixed wording that contains nothing about you. The home screen widget reads how much free space the phone has and nothing else; the two Siri shortcuts can report free space and run a scan, and neither of them can delete anything. The app ships a privacy manifest declaring no tracking and no collected data types at all.
To be honest with you about the exception: when you activate or verify a paid licence on one of the Mac apps, that app contacts our licensing provider. What travels is your licence key and a device fingerprint — a value derived from your hardware that lets us check the licence isn’t being used on more machines than it covers. Where you are in a trial, the same mechanism records when the trial period started.
That exchange carries no file names, no file contents and no scan results. Its only purpose is performing the licence contract (Art. 6(1)(b)) and preventing licence abuse (Art. 6(1)(f)). It happens on the Mac apps only. None of the three iPhone apps does it: Nana’s Level is free and has no licence to check, and purchases of Nana’s Focus and Nana’s Photo Cleaner are settled by Apple, not by our licensing provider — so no key and no device fingerprint exists for either of them.
macOS will ask your permission before an app can reach protected areas such as your Documents folder, Photos library or microphone. You can review and revoke those permissions at any time in System Settings → Privacy & Security. Revoking them limits what the app can do, but never sends us anything.
Nana’s Level asks you for nothing. The motion readings it uses come from Core Motion, which iOS hands to an app without a permission prompt because those readings say nothing about who or where you are. The app does not touch your location, your camera, your microphone, your contacts or your photos, so you will not see a single permission request from it for as long as you use it.
Nana’s Focus asks for one thing only: permission to send you reminders. It offers that during setup, and again later at the two places where a reminder would help — in the settings, and when you are building a study plan — so if you skipped it at the start, you will be asked once more when it becomes useful. Say no and nothing else changes — every other part of the app carries on working. It does not ask for your location, your camera, your contacts or your photos, and the documents it reads are the ones you hand it yourself through the system file picker.
Nana’s Photo Cleaner asks for your photo library, and that is the whole list. It is the only Nana’s app that does, and the only one that can change what is in it — the detail of what it does with that access, and of what it does not ask for, is above. On iPhone you can review or withdraw the permission at any time in Settings → Privacy & Security → Photos, and the app carries on with whatever you leave it.
This website sets no cookies, runs no analytics, and loads no third-party fonts, scripts, trackers or embedded content. That is why you are not being asked to accept anything — there is nothing to consent to.
The site is hosted on Google Firebase Hosting, which — like any web server — processes the technical data needed to deliver a page to you, including your IP address, in short-lived server logs. This is necessary to operate the site securely (Art. 6(1)(f)).
The support forms do not send anything to us over the internet. They open your own email program with the message pre-filled; nothing leaves your computer until you press send.
From time to time we invite people to try an app and tell us what they think, in exchange for a free licence. If you take part, the review form asks for your name, your email address, what you wrote and a photo of yourself; a link to a profile of yours is optional and you can leave it empty. Everything we publish about you is published because you ticked the box saying we may (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) — and a photograph of you is personal data, which is exactly why we ask first rather than after.
Changed your mind? Write to hi@adrianskobiej.pl and we will take your review and photo off the site. You do not have to give a reason, withdrawing consent costs you nothing, and you keep the licence.
We keep the list of external providers as short as we can:
| Provider | What for |
|---|---|
| Google (Firebase) | Serving this website, and storing licence and review records |
| Stripe | Processing payments for purchases made directly from this site |
| Keygen | Issuing, activating and validating licence keys |
| Apple | Sales made through the App Store — Apple is the seller and its own privacy policy applies |
| OVH | Our email — receiving and storing support correspondence |
Payment card details never reach us. They are handled directly by the payment provider.
Under the GDPR you may ask us to: give you a copy of your data (Art. 15), correct it (Art. 16), delete it (Art. 17), restrict how we use it (Art. 18), send it to you or another provider in a portable format (Art. 20), or object to processing based on legitimate interest (Art. 21). Where processing rests on consent, you can withdraw it at any time without affecting what was lawful beforehand.
Write to hi@adrianskobiej.pl and we will respond within one month. Deletion may be limited where the law requires us to keep invoices.
If you think we have handled your data badly, you can complain to the Polish supervisory authority — Prezes Urzędu Ochrony Danych Osobowych, ul. Stawki 2, 00-193 Warsaw (uodo.gov.pl) — or to the authority in your own country.
Some of our providers are based in the United States. Where data is transferred outside the European Economic Area, it is covered by the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses or by the EU–US Data Privacy Framework, as applicable to each provider.
If we change how we handle data, we will update this page and the date at the top. For changes that materially affect you, we will say so clearly rather than quietly editing the text.
