Pocket ProsodyOn-device writing, audio & sharing
Pocket Prosody privacy
Pocket Prosody is a paid, offline app. It keeps drafts, stress edits, and practice history on your device and does not send them to Ekky Ekky LLC.
The short version
No accounts. No ads. No analytics. No tracking. Pocket Prosody does not collect or transmit personal information, drafts, scansion results, audio, or challenge history.
Information stored only on your device
Pocket Prosody stores the information needed to provide its features on your device:
- Draft titles and verse text.
- Manual syllable-stress edits.
- Draft creation and update timestamps.
- Challenge choices, scores, reveal status, and attempt timestamps.
This information is used only to display, edit, save, and practice with your work. The app has no account, iCloud sync, custom sync service, or developer-operated backend that sends it to Ekky Ekky LLC.
Analysis and audio
Scansion analysis runs on the device using pronunciation data included with Pocket Prosody. Draft text is not sent to a server for analysis.
Beat playback is synthesized in memory and sent to the device’s audio output. Pocket Prosody does not record, store, or transmit microphone audio.
User-initiated sharing
Pocket Prosody can prepare a text rendering, an annotated PDF, or a high-resolution PNG image of the selected draft and scansion. It can also prepare a JSON backup containing local drafts, edits, and challenge results. These exports are generated on the device and may include verse text, edited stress marks, meter labels, foot boundaries, and substitution notes.
A temporary export file enters Apple’s system share interface only after you choose the corresponding export or Share control. Pocket Prosody does not choose a recipient, automatically upload the information, or send a copy to Ekky Ekky LLC.
Any app, service, or person you select handles the shared information under its own terms and privacy practices. Opening a product, support, privacy, or acknowledgements link also leaves Pocket Prosody for the browser you select.
Permissions and protected resources
Pocket Prosody does not request access to the microphone, speech recognition, camera, photo library, contacts, calendars, location, motion, Bluetooth, local network, notifications, or a tracking identifier. Audio playback uses output only.
Analytics, advertising, and third parties
Pocket Prosody includes no advertising, analytics, attribution, behavioral tracking, crash-reporting, login, payment, cloud-storage, or other executable third-party SDK.
Pocket Prosody includes the Carnegie Mellon University Pronouncing Dictionary as on-device pronunciation and lexical-stress data. It does not connect to Carnegie Mellon University or send any app or user information there. Credit and license details appear on the Pocket Prosody acknowledgements page .
App Store transactions
Pocket Prosody is purchased through Apple’s App Store. Apple processes the download, payment, refund, and related transaction information under Apple’s own terms and privacy practices. Pocket Prosody and Ekky Ekky LLC do not receive your payment credentials. The app has no subscription or in-app purchase.
Retention, deletion, and backups
Local drafts and their manual edits remain until you delete the draft or remove the app. Challenge attempts remain until you choose Clear challenge history in Meter Guide or remove the app. Deleting the app removes its locally stored data from the device, subject to backup and restore behavior independently managed by Apple.
Apple-managed device backups may include sandbox data depending on your device and backup settings. Ekky Ekky LLC cannot access those backups. Pocket Prosody does not provide its own cloud sync or restore service. Version 1.0 can export a readable JSON backup through the system share interface but cannot import that backup into the app.
Your choices and requests
Because Ekky Ekky LLC does not receive your app-local drafts, edits, or challenge history, it cannot view, correct, export, or delete that information for you. Use the app’s draft deletion and history-reset controls, prepare a local JSON copy if wanted, or remove the app to manage app-local information.
You can choose whether to share anything and which recipient to use. There is no advertising sale, tracking opt-out, or app-account deletion process because the app has no advertising, tracking, or accounts.
Security and international processing
App-local information is protected by Apple’s app sandbox and the security controls of your device. No storage system can be guaranteed completely secure, so protect your device and any exported copy appropriately.
Pocket Prosody does not transmit app-local information to Ekky Ekky LLC for processing in another country. If you contact support or share an export with an external service, the providers and recipient you choose may process that information in other locations under their own terms.
Children’s privacy
Pocket Prosody is a general-purpose writing and education tool. Because the app does not collect personal information, it does not knowingly collect personal information from children or anyone else.
Across the studio
Who we are and what this covers
Ekky Ekky LLC is the New York company responsible for this website, our apps, and information you send to studio support. Ekky Ekky Games is our gaming division, not a separate legal entity.
This policy covers ekkyekky.com, ycorptech.up.railway.app, and the apps identified in the app sections. Those sections explain each app's actual practices and platform differences; features such as ads, analytics, accounts, and cloud saves do not apply to every app.
Apple, Google, and other providers named in an app's section also handle information for their own services under their respective privacy terms. Website activity is described separately in the website section of this policy.
When you contact us
If you email the studio, Ekky Ekky LLC and the email providers involved receive your email address, message, and any attachments you choose to send. We use them to answer the request, follow up, protect the service, and keep necessary support records. Support correspondence is not sold or used for advertising.
We retain it only as reasonably needed for support, security, recordkeeping, or legal obligations, then delete or de-identify it when practical. You can ask us to delete a support conversation, subject to limited legal or recordkeeping needs.
Please do not send passwords, verification codes, payment-card details, private drafts, health records, or confidential files. Send only information needed for the request, and only material you are permitted to share.
Your choices and privacy requests
Contact us to request access, correction, export, or deletion of information the studio holds, or to ask how to exercise other applicable privacy rights. Name the app or service involved. Verification may be needed; rights and exceptions depend on your location, security needs, and legal obligations. You may also have the right to complain to your local privacy regulator.
Information held only on your device, in a private cloud account, or by a platform provider may not be accessible to us. Each app's section explains the available controls and any limits. Deleting app data does not by itself cancel a purchase or subscription, request a refund, or erase records held by Apple, Google, or another provider.
Security and processing locations
We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards for the systems we operate. Local app records rely on device and operating-system protections; keep your device software current and use a passcode. Our network services use HTTPS. No device, online service, or transmission can be guaranteed completely secure.
Apple, Google, hosting, email, and other providers identified below may process information in countries where they operate, under their policies and applicable safeguards. The app sections explain which services are involved.
Policy updates
We update this policy and relevant store privacy disclosures when our information practices change, before releasing materially changed app behavior. The effective date identifies this policy; dates in the app and website sections identify the information described there. Additional notices are provided where required.
