Your typing
stays your business.

1. Scope and contact

This policy explains how the provider of ShellType C+ (“we,” “us”) handles information in the iPhone and iPad app, its keyboard extension, and support communications. For privacy questions or requests, contact Imakhmdv@gmail.com.

2. Keyboard input

The keyboard processes key presses on your device and passes text, deletion requests, cursor movements, or terminal control sequences to the app in which you are typing. ShellType C+ does not send this input to our servers or store a history of it.

The receiving app processes the input under its own privacy policy. Text entered in ShellType C+’s Try it area is used for the current demonstration, not saved as a typing history. Text or commands that you explicitly assign to a custom key are saved as part of that layout.

3. Data stored on your device

ShellType C+ stores your layouts, layout names, key labels, assigned text and commands, key sizes and positions, page configuration, layout order, and appearance and input preferences. The app and keyboard share a local container so saved layouts can be used outside the main app.

Local files can also include a previous-library backup and data retained for importing older layouts. ShellType C+ does not operate a cloud account or its own cloud synchronization service. Your device backup settings may cause app data to be included in backups managed by Apple or your computer.

If you choose a Paste action where available, ShellType C+ reads the clipboard to perform that action. It does not continuously monitor the clipboard or transmit its contents to us.

4. Keyboard permissions

ShellType C+ can appear in iOS’s third-party keyboard settings with an Allow Full Access option. Its current implementation does not use this permission to transmit typed text over the network. The app uses local shared storage, and the keyboard’s legacy-layout transfer requires Full Access to write the transfer data.

You can disable Full Access or remove ShellType C+ from your enabled keyboards in Settings → General → Keyboard → Keyboards. Removing the keyboard from this list does not delete layouts stored by the app.

5. Support and diagnostics

If you email us, we receive your email address and any message, attachments, device details, or other information you choose to send. We use that information to respond, investigate problems, and improve ShellType C+. Please do not send passwords, SSH keys, authentication codes, or private text unrelated to your issue.

Support correspondence is processed through our email provider, Google Gmail, under Google’s Privacy Policy. Apple may make crash reports, diagnostic information, or TestFlight feedback available to us through its services, depending on your participation and sharing settings. Those services are governed by Apple’s Privacy Policy. ShellType C+ does not include an independent analytics or crash-reporting SDK.

6. Sharing and website visits

We do not sell your personal information or share keyboard input for advertising. We use service providers for support email and website hosting. They process information needed to provide those services under their applicable privacy terms. We may disclose information if legally required.

These support pages do not include advertising, analytics scripts, tracking pixels, or forms that upload information. The hosting provider may process technical request data, such as IP addresses and browser information, to deliver and secure the website. Opening an email link uses your chosen email app; no message is sent until you send it.

7. Retention and deletion

Saved layouts and preferences remain on your device until changed or removed. Deleting a layout removes it from the active library, but an earlier copy may remain in a local backup or legacy import file. To remove the app’s local data, use Delete App in iOS Settings rather than Offload App. Device or computer backups may retain earlier copies; manage those through your backup settings.

We retain support correspondence and diagnostic information only as long as reasonably needed to resolve the issue, handle follow-up requests, and meet applicable legal obligations. You may email us to request access, correction, or deletion of information you supplied to support. We may need to verify the request and may retain information where required by law. We cannot remotely read or delete layouts on your device.

8. Children and policy updates

ShellType C+ does not require an account, ask for age information, or intentionally collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information through support, contact us to request its deletion.

We will update this page when our practices change and revise the date above. Material changes that require notice or consent will be addressed before the relevant new processing begins.
