Privacy
Tonos is quiet by design. Here, in plain language, is exactly what it does with your data: nothing.
What Tonos collects.
Nothing. Tonos does not collect, transmit, store, sell, or process any user data. There are no analytics, no tracking, no crash reporters, and no network requests of any kind.
Your keystrokes.
Every keystroke you make with Tonos stays on the device. The keyboard extension makes no network requests and has no mechanism to send anything off the device. There is no path by which your typed text can leave your phone or tablet through Tonos.
Accounts and sign-in.
There are none. Tonos does not have user accounts. There is nothing to sign into, nothing to sign out of, nothing to forget, nothing for us to lose.
Network.
Beyond the StoreKit purchase flow described below, which Apple handles, Tonos makes no network requests of its own. It does not phone home. It does not check for updates. It does not load remote configuration. On a device a school manages, it reads the one setting the school's device management puts there, described below. App updates are handled entirely by the App Store.
In-app purchase.
Tonos Pro is an optional one-time In-App Purchase. When you buy or restore Pro, iOS itself contacts Apple's servers through StoreKit to complete the transaction. Tonos does not see any payment details, and no information about what you type is sent anywhere. The unlock is stored as a local flag on the device. If you decline the upgrade, nothing about it is sent to Apple on your behalf.
School-managed devices.
On an iPad or iPhone that a school manages, the school's device management (MDM) can give Tonos a school license that unlocks Tonos Pro. iOS delivers it to the device as managed app configuration. Tonos makes no network request for it and checks it on the device. Tonos then reports the license's status back to that device management as managed app feedback: whether the license is valid, the school's name, the license's last valid day and its license ID. The report holds nothing about the person using the device or what they type, and none of it is sent to us.
Contacting support.
If you email support@motomatic.com for help, we will use your email address solely to reply. We do not add it to any list. We do not share it with anyone. If you ask us to delete the thread, we will.
Children.
Tonos does not knowingly collect information from anyone, including children. Since it collects nothing at all, it cannot collect information from children.
Changes to this policy.
If anything about Tonos changes in a way that affects this policy, this page will be updated and the effective date at the top revised. If the change is substantive, we will note what changed so readers can see it at a glance.
