Overview
This policy covers Whiteboard Animation: make whiteboard-style animated videos in the browser and export them as WebM or GIF.
It was built by Ahsan Mahmood, a software developer in Lahore, Pakistan. I am responsible for it, and you can reach me at aoneahsan@gmail.com.
Whiteboard Animation is not released. I froze it on October 21, 2026, with my other idea projects, so the products already in production get finished first. It is not being developed or sold now, and these documents change before that does.
What it holds
You sign in with your Google account. Google shares your name, email address and profile photo with Whiteboard Animation; your Google password never reaches it.
If you used a build of Whiteboard Animation, it may hold:
- your Google name and email address
- the projects you save
How it is used
Only to run the part of Whiteboard Animation you were using. Nothing is sold, and nothing goes to anyone outside the services listed below.
Nothing is used for advertising.
Services it uses
| Service | What it receives |
|---|---|
| Google Firebase | Your sign-in record and the data you save, stored in Cloud Firestore. |
| Sentry | Error reports when something breaks: the page, the browser or device, and what went wrong. Not your content. |
| Amplitude | Counts of which screens are opened and which buttons are pressed, to see what gets used. |
| OneSignal | A device token, only if you allow notifications. |
Each service keeps what it receives under its own privacy policy.
How long it is kept
Until you ask me to delete it, or until I switch the Whiteboard Animation backend off, whichever comes first.
Children
Whiteboard Animation is not meant for children under 13, and I do not knowingly keep anything about them. If you think a child has used it, email me and I will delete what it holds.
Deleting your data
How to ask, what is deleted and what is kept are on the Whiteboard Animation account deletion page.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, the new version goes on this page with a new Last updated date. There is no mailing list, so that date is the notice.
