Rudiment Coach — Privacy Policy

Last updated October 1, 2026

Oregon Code & Design, LLC ("we") makes Rudiment Coach. This policy explains what happens to information when you use it. The short version: Rudiment Coach has no accounts, no ads and no analytics, and we don't collect anything about you.

What the app keeps

Your patterns, favorites, practice history and scores, journal, notes, shared results, kits and the sounds you import, click mix, pad setup, and your first name if you add one. All of it is stored on your device. None of it is sent to us.

iCloud

If you're signed in to iCloud with iCloud Drive on, that data syncs to your other devices through Rudiment Coach's private folder in your iCloud account. Apple stores it; we can't see it. Mic calibration stays on each device.

Microphone

Rudiment Coach uses the microphone only when you choose Microphone as the input, and only after you allow it. The sound is analyzed on your device as you play to hear when you strike and how hard. It is never recorded, saved or sent anywhere. You can turn microphone access off in the iPhone or iPad Settings app at any time.

Pads, MIDI files and sounds

Strokes from your BopPad or other MIDI pad are read on your device to grade your playing. MIDI files and sounds you import are kept in the app on your device (and your iCloud, if it's on). None of it is sent to us.

Game Center

Game Center is optional (Settings → Game Center). When it's on, your best clean passes and your achievement progress are sent to Apple's Game Center under your Game Center profile, and other players can see your nickname and scores on the leaderboards. Apple's privacy policy covers Game Center. Turn it off in Rudiment Coach or in the Settings app whenever you like.

Sharing

When you share a pattern or send your results, the file goes only where you send it (AirDrop, Messages, Mail and so on). A results file holds the name you type, the pattern, your passes and scores, and any note you add. We never receive these files.

What we don't do

No analytics, advertising, tracking or advertising identifiers. No third-party code or SDKs: the app is built only with Apple's frameworks. We don't sell or share data, and we don't run a server for the app.

Crash reports

If you've chosen to share analytics with app developers in your device's settings, Apple may send us anonymous crash reports. They don't identify you.

Children

Rudiment Coach doesn't collect information from anyone, including children under 13.

Deleting your data

Delete patterns, kits and results in the app, or delete the app to remove everything on the device. To remove the synced copy, open the Settings app → your name → iCloud → Manage Storage (or Storage) → Rudiment Coach.

Changes

If this policy changes, the new version will be in the app and on our website with a new date.
