Privacy
Last updated: October 29, 2026
This page tells you what Rip Score keeps on your phone, what it sends to us, and why. If something is not clear, ask us.
The short version
- Camera frames are processed on your phone. They are never uploaded.
- Your cards, settings and Pro status are stored in the browser on your phone.
- We collect anonymous usage events to make the scanner better.
- We do not store names, contacts, location or photos. We do not keep your IP address (a scrambled code made from it is kept for about one hour, only to stop abuse).
- No ads. No ad tracking. We do not sell data.
What stays on your phone
- The camera. Camera frames are processed on your phone and never uploaded.
- Scan photos. A listing draft can use a photo from your scan. Scan photos stay on your phone unless you choose to share them.
- Your collection, settings and Pro status. These are stored in the browser on your phone. If you clear this site’s data in your browser, they are deleted. Want to keep a copy of your cards? Export them to CSV first.
What we collect
We collect anonymous usage events. Each event is tied to a random install ID that is created on your phone. For example:
- which card IDs were scanned or corrected
- which features were tapped
- app errors
- your screen size, and the website that sent you to us (for example tiktok.com)
We use these events to make card recognition better and to decide what to build next.
What we do not collect
We do not store names, contacts, location or photos. We do not keep your IP address. To stop people from abusing the price server, checkout and the contact form, our server counts requests per hour using a scrambled code made from the IP address (a salted hash). That code is not stored with your events, and it is deleted after about one hour. There are no ads and no ad tracking. We do not sell data.
Rip Score Pro and payments
Payments are handled by Stripe. When you buy Pro, Stripe processes the payment. Stripe sends us your email address, your plan and the payment status. We never get your card number.
We use this to give you Pro, and to restore Pro later, for example on a new phone.
Prices and card images
- Prices. When the app looks up the price of a card, the request goes to our server. Our server asks PokeTrace and keeps a copy of the answer (a cache). No personal data is sent.
- Card images. Card images load from the TCGdex image server. Like any website, it sees your IP address.
Other services
- Hosting. Rip Score is hosted on Cloudflare.
- Fonts. Our fonts load from Google Fonts.
Like any website, these services can see your IP address when your phone loads files from them.
When you contact us
If you send us a message with the contact form, we store it so we can reply. This includes the topic, your message, the page you came from, and your email if you type one. Email is optional. We delete your message if you ask.
Your choices
- See or delete your data. Send a request with the contact form and choose “Data request”. We answer within 30 days.
- Delete what is on your phone. Clear this site’s data in your browser settings. This deletes your collection, settings and Pro status on that phone. You can get Pro back with the email you paid with.
Children
Rip Score is for ages 13 and up. It is not for children under 13. If we learn that we hold data from a child under 13, we delete it.
Changes to this page
If these rules change, we update this page and the date at the top.
