Privacy Policy

Effective October 31, 2026

Ripple is an iPhone app published by Lavanya Reddy Tatiparthi. Ripple has no servers and no user accounts of its own. We don't collect, receive, sell or share your data.

YouTube API Services

Ripple uses YouTube API Services to show your channel's information. By using Ripple you agree to the YouTube Terms of Service. Google's handling of your data is described in the Google Privacy Policy.

What Ripple accesses

• Public channel data, if you connect by handle: channel name, image, subscriber, video and view counts, uploads, video statistics and public comments.
• Private YouTube Analytics data, if you sign in with Google: views, watch time, subscribers gained and lost, retention, traffic sources and audience data.
• Estimated revenue, only if you leave "Include revenue" on when signing in.

Access is read-only. Ripple can't post, edit or delete anything on your channel.

Where your data is kept

• Requests, including for images, go directly from your iPhone to Google. Nothing passes through us.
• Channel data, channel images and video thumbnails are cached on your iPhone, in storage shared only with Ripple's widgets.
• Google sign-in tokens are stored in the iOS Keychain on your iPhone.
• Your designs and settings are stored on your iPhone.

How your data is used

Only to display your channel's numbers in the app and widgets and, if you turn them on, to create alerts on your iPhone. Ripple contains no analytics, advertising or crash-reporting SDKs. Alerts are local notifications, not sent through a server.

Ripple's use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

Retention and deletion

• Cached API data and images are refreshed or deleted within 30 days.
• Disconnecting a channel deletes its data from your iPhone.
• Deleting the app removes its stored files.

Revoking access

In Ripple, go to Settings and tap Disconnect Google account. You can also revoke access at any time in your Google Account permissions.

Purchases

Ripple Pro is sold through Apple, which processes payment. We don't receive your payment details. Ripple passes Apple a random identifier with purchases; it isn't linked to your identity by us.

Children

Ripple is intended for channel owners and isn't directed at children under 13.

Changes

We'll update this page if this policy changes, and change the effective date above.
