Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 15, 2026

Overview

WireSketch is designed with privacy as a core principle. Your data stays on your device. We do not collect, transmit, or store any personal information.

Data Collection

WireSketch does not collect:

Local Storage

All project data, photos, fixture placements, annotations, and settings are stored locally on your device in the app's sandboxed Documents directory. This data is:

Camera and Photo Library

WireSketch requests access to your camera and photo library solely to capture or select wall photos for electrical layout planning. Photos are stored locally within the app and are never transmitted externally.

Location

Location access is optional. If you grant it, WireSketch uses your device location only to (1) center the satellite map on your home when planning rooftop solar, and (2) suggest the electrical region and standard for a new property. Turning a location or address into a region (reverse-geocoding) and the satellite imagery itself are provided by Apple Maps, so the relevant coordinates are sent to Apple for that purpose under Apple's privacy policy. Any resolved coordinates are stored locally on your device (and in your device backups if you have backups enabled) to power the projects map; they are never sent to WireSketch — we operate no servers. If you decline location access, you can type an address or choose your region manually.

In-App Purchases

WireSketch offers optional in-app purchases processed entirely through Apple's App Store. Purchase transactions are handled by Apple and subject to Apple's privacy policy. WireSketch stores only a local boolean indicating whether a feature has been unlocked. No payment information, Apple ID, or transaction details are collected or stored by WireSketch.

ARKit and RoomPlan

When using the AR scan mode, WireSketch uses Apple's ARKit and RoomPlan frameworks to detect walls and room geometry. All processing happens on-device. No scan data is sent to any server.

Third-Party Services

WireSketch does not integrate any third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking services. There are no SDKs from Facebook, Google, or any other third party. The only network communication is with Apple: the App Store for in-app purchase verification, and Apple Maps for satellite imagery and reverse-geocoding when you use the Solar Planner or the optional location features.

Data Sharing

When you export a project (PDF, PNG, JPEG, CSV), the exported file is generated locally and shared only through iOS's built-in share sheet. WireSketch does not access or control where you send the exported file. Exported PDFs include project data such as fixture names, positions, and material estimates — ensure you are comfortable sharing this information with the recipient.

Data Retention

Since all data is stored locally on your device, you have full control over its retention. You can delete individual projects within the app or remove all data by uninstalling the app. We do not retain any copy of your data.

Children's Privacy

WireSketch is a professional tool and does not knowingly collect information from children under 13. The app does not contain advertising or social features.

Changes to This Policy

If we update this privacy policy, we will post the new version on this page with an updated date. Material changes will be communicated through an app update.
