Privacy Policy

This policy covers Loadscope for macOS and Windows, Loadscope Ballistics for iPhone and iPad, and our website (loadscope.app), all operated by Loadscope LLC ("we", "us"). It explains what information is and is not collected. Our apps are built to be local-first: your load and shooting data stays on your own device.

The desktop app (Mac & Windows)

• No account. Loadscope has no sign-up, login, or user account.
• Your data stays on your computer. The app reads the CSV files you provide and writes to a standard Excel workbook stored locally on your computer. We never receive, transmit, or store your load data, chronograph data, or shooting data.
• No telemetry or analytics. The app does not track usage or send analytics.
• Update checks. To offer one-click updates, the app periodically requests a small public version file over the internet. This request contains no personal data beyond the standard network information (such as an IP address) inherent to any web request.
• License validation. If you purchase a license, the app may verify the license key you enter against our license server. Only the license key (and a non-identifying check) is sent; no personal data or load data is transmitted.

The iOS app (Loadscope Ballistics)

• No account. There is no sign-up, login, or user account. Your loads, conditions, and round counts are stored only on your device.
• Location (optional). Only if you choose the "Nearest weather station" conditions source, the app uses your device location to find the closest U.S. National Weather Service station and request current conditions from weather.gov. Your coordinates are used for that lookup and are not stored by us or used for anything else. If you never select that source, the app does not access your location.
• Direct Wi-Fi sync (optional). Loads can sync directly between your phone and your own computer over your local network. The data goes device-to-device with no cloud and no account; we never receive it.
• License validation. If you unlock with a Loadscope license key (or import a load that carries one), the app verifies that key against our license server. Only the key is sent — no personal data or load data.
• No telemetry, analytics, ads, or tracking. The app contains no third-party analytics or advertising SDKs and does not track you across apps or websites.

The website (loadscope.app)

• Downloads. To download Loadscope you enter your license key so our server can authorize the download. The key is not personal information, and we do not link your download to your identity.
• Bot protection. The site uses Cloudflare Turnstile to help block automated abuse. Cloudflare processes this under its own privacy terms.
• Advertising measurement (Meta Pixel). When we run ads, the website uses the Meta (Facebook) Pixel to measure ad performance and show relevant ads. It may set cookies and share basic visit information (such as the pages you view on loadscope.app) with Meta. We do not collect your shooting or load data this way, and we do not sell your information. You can limit or opt out through your Meta ad preferences or your browser's cookie controls. The Pixel is the only such tool on the site — there is no other third-party analytics.

Purchases

Desktop purchases are processed by Lemon Squeezy, which acts as the Merchant of Record. Payment information (such as card details) is collected and handled entirely by Lemon Squeezy under their privacy policy and terms; we do not see or store your payment card information. We receive only the order and license information needed to deliver your license key and provide support.

The in-app purchase in Loadscope Ballistics for iOS is processed by Apple through the App Store under Apple's privacy policy and terms. We do not see or store your payment information; we receive only confirmation that the unlock was purchased.

Data requests

Because we hold almost no personal data (essentially only your name and email from your Loadscope order via Lemon Squeezy), requests are simple. To ask what we have, or to have it deleted, email support@loadscope.app.

Changes

We may update this policy as the product evolves. The "last updated" date above will change accordingly.
