Privacy Policy & Terms

How Illusion handles artwork, device storage, optional waitlist emails, and third-party services. Effective immediately. Last updated .

No ad trackers Local artwork No account required

Plain-English summary

  • No tracking cookies. No advertising pixels, cross-site trackers, or consent wall.
  • Your artwork stays local. Drawing, exports, and tracing run on your device. Project files are not uploaded to Illusion’s app server.
  • No account required to use the editor.
  • Android app is offline. No Internet permission — it collects and sends nothing.
  • Web aggregate counters only. The hosted site may send an event name and timestamp (session, first draw, export, vectorize) with no artwork, filename, email, cookie, or lasting user ID.

1. Cookies and local storage

Illusion is designed to comply with the EU GDPR and the ePrivacy Directive for essential, product-only storage.

Tracking cookies

No. We do not place advertising cookies, third-party profiling trackers, or marketing pixels. Because there are no non-essential tracking cookies, there is no cookie consent banner.

Anonymous usage events (web)

On the hosted production site, Illusion may POST a short event label and timestamp to /api/stats. The app code does not attach an IP, device fingerprint, artwork, filenames, or persistent identifier. The hosting provider still processes ordinary network metadata to serve the request.

Android app (Google Play)

Package app.illusion.quest does not request the Internet permission, so it cannot send or receive data. No usage counters, analytics, ads, or accounts.

Drawings and settings stay on the device (app storage and paths you choose via the system file picker). Uninstalling removes app storage; files you saved elsewhere remain. In-app links (this page, Discord) open in your browser.

Functional local storage

The web and desktop apps may use localStorage and IndexedDB only for product features — autosave drafts, UI preferences, and similar. That data stays on your device.

2. Local canvas processing & intellectual property

Vector math, Bézier editing, tracing, booleans, and exports run locally via browser or native WebView APIs (JavaScript, SVG, Canvas, and related surfaces).

Ownership: You retain full intellectual property and commercial rights to every design you create or export with Illusion. Illusion claims no ownership, license, or rights over your creative output.

3. Waitlists and direct contact

The Linux and Galaxy Tab pages may store an email so Illusion can notify you about a public Linux build, Galaxy Tab beta access, or related news. Joining the Linux list does not send a confirmation email. Joining the Galaxy Tab list sends one email right away with the steps to join the beta test. There is no double opt-in: if someone else entered your address, reply “unsubscribe” and it is deleted.

  • Addresses are stored in Cloudflare KV under the ILLUSION_WAITLIST binding, one record per list and email. They are not sold or rented. The public API does not return them.
  • The Galaxy Tab beta email is sent through Resend, which receives your address and the message only to deliver it.
  • To unsubscribe or request deletion, email vladimir@illusion.quest and name which list (Linux, Galaxy Tab, or both).
  • Direct support or testing email is handled by the developer’s mail provider, not the waitlist store. Those addresses are not sold or rented; you can request deletion the same way.

4. Third-party services

To host the product and support development, Illusion may use:

  • Cloudflare — Website hosting (Cloudflare Pages). May process network-level requests for DDoS mitigation and cookieless performance analytics.
  • Buy Me a Coffee — Optional donations via buymeacoffee.com/illusion.quest. Payments follow their privacy policy. Illusion never receives your card details.
  • Discord — Community chat and bug reports follow Discord’s Terms and Privacy Policy.
  • Resend — Sends the Galaxy Tab beta email to the address you enter. It receives that address and the message, nothing else.

5. Terms of service & beta disclaimer

Illusion is distributed as a public beta. Features may change; always export backups of important work.

“AS IS” warranty disclaimer. Illusion is provided free of charge on an “as is” and “as available” basis, without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.

In no event shall the author or copyright holder be liable for any claim, damages, or data loss arising from use of this software. Export and back up critical files regularly.

6. Data controller & contact

Illusion is an independent creative software project by Vladimir.
