Toccobird Drawing Markup privacy notice

Drawings and working records stay in your local library

The app stores imported originals, working copies, annotations, measurements, drawing details and attached photos in its local application storage. It also retains drawing groups and annotation visibility and locking. You do not need an app account to use the drawing workspace.

The app does not provide a cloud drawing library or team synchronization service. Files you choose from a cloud file provider, and copies included in your device backups, may also be handled by the services you use and your device settings.

Scale recognition, photos and device permissions

Scale recognition reads PDF text and processes page images with Apple Vision on the device. This recognition process does not upload the drawing for cloud OCR processing.

Camera access is requested for site photos and supported LiDAR capture. You can choose images through the system photo picker. Photos, captions and any confirmed LiDAR evidence are saved with the related local records. These capture features are optional, and camera permission can be changed in iOS Settings.

Receiving over a local network

Only when you start Web Upload does the app run a local HTTP receiver. A browser on the same network can send files directly to your device, where they are imported into the local library. The receiving page does not serve files from that library or send drawings to this marketing website.

HTTP transfer is not encrypted by the app. Use a trusted local network and stop reception when finished. Closing the receiving popup or putting the app in the background stops the receiver. Local Network permission can be changed in iOS Settings.

App Store transactions and access status

The trial and full-version purchase use Apple StoreKit. Apple handles the Apple Account and payment transaction. The app receives verified transaction information needed to determine trial timing and purchase access; it does not receive your payment-card details.

The app keeps a local Keychain time record to support trial timing. Loading products, buying and restoring purchases can communicate with Apple. Removing local drawing records does not remove Apple purchase history or restart a claimed trial.

Exports and destinations you choose

The app creates export files locally and uses the system share sheet when you choose to share or save them. Your selected recipient, app or storage provider then handles its copy under its own practices.

Export files and .tdm packages are not separately encrypted by the app; older .toccobirdbackup files remain supported. A full package can include originals, photos and calibration, and preserves visibility and locking. Hidden annotations are included in selected exports, so hiding is not redaction. Review the contents and destination before sharing.

Retention, Trash and copies outside the app

Local records remain available until removed. Moving a drawing or project to Trash keeps it in the library so it can be restored; this is not permanent erasure. Deleting the app through iOS removes its local drawing library, while device backups and separately saved or shared files must be managed in their respective locations.

Changes or deletion inside the app do not recall a file already shared with someone else. Review saved exports and backup copies separately if you no longer need them.

System PDF handoff and presentation output

PDFs received through Open In or the share action can be held in protected on-device transfer storage shared by this app and its import extension until the app completes import. This does not create a shared library with other Toccobird apps.

When you start a presentation, the selected drawing and visible presentation content are sent to the compatible display using your chosen connection. Temporary presentation marks do not become saved drawing edits; review the display and content before playing.

Next-release preview: a paired local Web editor

The locally implemented Web editor is not included in the publicly released 1.2 app. It is designed to let a paired browser access and edit device-local drawings while the app is in the foreground with the session open.

That planned service runs on the app device, over a trusted local network, rather than on this marketing website. Local HTTP is not encrypted by the app. The current 1.2 upload page remains an upload route and does not imply that browser editing is already available.

Visiting this website

This website uses locally hosted assets and does not include advertising trackers, analytics scripts, third-party font requests or contact forms. It does not ask you to upload drawings.

The hosting service may process necessary request information, such as an IP address, requested page, browser information and request time, to deliver and secure the website. The hosting service manages these request records.

At the default entry, we select a supported browser language, or English if none matches. A manual selection is saved only in this browser’s local storage for this site and takes priority on your next visit to that entry. Use “Follow browser language” in the language menu to reset it. Language-specific links remain accessible. If browser storage is unavailable, the choice stays in the page URL for navigation. This preference is not used for analytics or advertising.

Support correspondence and privacy questions

If you email support@ioncreate.com, your message, email address and any attachments are processed through email services so we can respond. Send only the information needed for your request, and remove confidential or personal details from sample drawings where possible.

Contact support@ioncreate.com with questions about this notice or information you have shared with support. Material changes to these practices will be reflected on this page.
