Your roasts - bean info, timings, settings, notes, and photos - stay on your device. Roastit does not upload them and has no servers that hold them. They leave only when you choose to back up or share.
Photos
Photos you take stay on your device. They go into a backup only if you turn on "Photos in backup".
Backup and sharing
A backup is a single file with your roasts (and photos, if you include them). A shared roast is an image with its name, settings, timings, chart, and notes. Both are made on your device and handed to the app you choose. Roastit does not upload or receive them. Once sent or saved, they are outside the app.
Usage data
Roastit collects anonymous usage events, such as when a roast is started, saved, or shared, with details like roast level, roaster type, and duration. Your answers to the occasional in-app survey are recorded the same way. It also records app opens, updates, and which screen you view, without any content from them. Each install has a random ID that stays on your device until you uninstall, so events can be grouped. It is not linked to you, and no location is taken from your IP address. Roast notes and other text you type are not collected, except the country and website address you submit through the retailer form and the message you write in the feedback form. It also records how you use the roast screen, such as how many bean temperature readings you log, when you log them, and the heat level you set and when. The temperature readings themselves are not sent. Data is never sold.
Retailer suggestions
If you suggest a retailer, we receive the country and website address you enter. We don't ask for your name or email and can't reply. Please don't put personal information in the address.
Feedback and suggestions
If you write to us through the feedback form, we receive the message you enter. We don't ask for your name or email and can't reply. Please don't include personal information in it.
Region setting
Roastit reads your device's region setting on your device to preselect a country for the retailer list. That country, or the one you pick, and its region group (such as US or EU) are included in an anonymous usage event.
No accounts
No account, email, or personal information is needed to use Roastit.
Third-party services
Roastit uses PostHog for the usage events above. Session recording and IP-based location are turned off. PostHog does not receive your roast notes or photos. The only text you type that it receives is what you choose to send through the feedback form or the retailer form, so please don't put personal information in either.
Data deletion
Uninstalling the app permanently removes the roast data stored in it. Backup files and shared images you saved or sent elsewhere stay where they are; delete them there.
