Privacy Policy
Last Updated: February 11, 2026
1. Information We Collect
We collect information you provide directly to us when you create an account, upload patterns, or scan yarn barcodes. This includes your email address, hashed passwords, and the craft-related data you choose to store in your personal library and stash.
2. Pattern Data & Files
Any patterns you upload (PDFs, URLs, or text) are private by default and associated only with your account. We use automated systems (AI) to analyze these patterns to provide interactive features like row tracking and stitch help. We do not sell or share your personal pattern collection with third parties.
3. AI & Grounding
When you use features like Barcode Scanning or Pattern Extraction, we use third-party AI models (Google Gemini). When resolving barcodes, we may use Google Search grounding to identify specific yarn details. No personally identifiable information is sent to these services during these operations.
4. Cookies & Analytics
We use cookies to maintain your login session and PostHog for product analytics to help us understand how users interact with LoopStep. This allows us to prioritize new features and fix bugs effectively.
5. Your Rights
You have the right to access, update, or delete your personal information and data at any time. You can manage your pattern library and yarn stash directly through the application interface.
