Privacy Policy
Effective 29 October 2026
The short version: your stamp book lives on your device. Pressmark has no accounts, no ads, no analytics and no tracking, and we never see your stamps, photos, notes or location history. The only things that leave your device are a location lookup when you press a stamp, and map tiles when you open the map.
What stays on your device
Everything you create in Pressmark is stored only on the device you're using, in the app's local storage:
- Stamp images and the original photos you took or picked
- Names, notes, tags, dates and locations you add
- Your books, page layouts and settings
We don't run a server that stores this data, and we can't see or recover it. Deleting the app, or clearing the browser's site data, deletes your book. Use Settings → Back up my book to keep a copy.
What leaves your device, and why
| When | What is sent | To whom |
|---|---|---|
| You press a stamp without typing a location | The stamp's latitude and longitude (from the photo's own location data, or your device's current location if you allow it), so we can show a town and region name on the stamp | BigDataCloud (reverse-geocoding service) |
| You open the Map tab | Requests for the map images covering the area on screen. Like any web request, these include your IP address. | OpenStreetMap (map tile servers) |
| You use Pressmark on the web | Standard web-server request logs (IP address, browser type, pages requested) needed to deliver the app | Cloudflare (hosting) |
None of these services receives your stamps, photos, notes or a history of where you've been. We don't sell or share personal data, and we don't use it for advertising.
Permissions
- Camera and photos: to photograph or pick the stamp or place you want to keep. Photos are processed on your device.
- Location (optional): to put the town and region on a stamp and to place it on your map. You can say no and type locations by hand instead.
Sharing and backups
When you share a stamp, page or recap, or save a backup file, Pressmark hands the file to your device's share sheet or downloads folder. Where it goes from there is up to you and the app you choose.
Children
Pressmark doesn't collect personal information from anyone, including children under 13 (or the equivalent minimum age where you live).
Changes
If this policy changes, we'll update the date above and describe the change in the app's release notes. If we ever add an optional cloud backup, it will be opt-in and explained here before it launches.
