Privacy for AppStato
AppStato talks to Apple directly with your own App Store Connect key, and keeps your key and your reports on your iPhone or iPad. No account, no Caddora server, no analytics, no adverts and no tracking.
This is the policy for AppStato, the iPhone and iPad app. Last updated 12 November 2026.
The app
- No account. There is nothing to sign up for or sign into with us.
- No analytics, no adverts, no tracking. No usage data and no advertising SDKs.
- No server of ours. The app never contacts Caddora. Its only network traffic is with Apple, described below.
Your App Store Connect key
To read your reports, AppStato uses an App Store Connect API key that you create in your own App Store Connect account, with your Issuer ID and vendor number. The key is stored in your device's Keychain and used only to request your reports from Apple, directly. We never receive it.
AppStato only reads. A key with the Admin role is needed once, because Apple only starts generating analytics reports for your apps when an Admin key asks for them; AppStato uses the key to read those reports and changes nothing in your account.
While you connect, App Store Connect opens in a Safari sheet inside the app. What you do there is between you and Apple.
Your reports
Your analytics and sales reports come from Apple straight to your iPhone or iPad and are stored only there. Your downloads, impressions, page views and proceeds are never uploaded, and we never see them.
App icons and release dates
To show each app's icon and release date, AppStato asks Apple's public lookup service for it by app ID. Only the app ID is sent: nothing about you or your account.
Buying
AppStato Pro is sold and charged by Apple through your Apple Account. The app only reads the signed entitlement Apple puts on your device to know whether your subscription is active, and it checks that on the device. We do not receive your name, email address, Apple Account or payment details. Apple's handling of your purchase is described in Apple's privacy policy.
The demo
The demo shows sample apps and fictional values, clearly labelled, and needs no account and no key.
Deleting your data
Disconnecting your account in AppStato removes your key from the Keychain, and you can delete the reports kept on the device at the same time. There is nothing held by us to delete.
Crash reports
If you have turned on Share with App Developers in Settings → Privacy & Security → Analytics & Improvements, Apple may pass us crash reports and usage figures for this app. They come from Apple, not from the app, and do not identify you. Turn the setting off and nothing is shared.
Testing with TestFlight
If you test a pre-release version through Apple's TestFlight, Apple shares with us what TestFlight collects for testers: the name and email address you were invited with, your device and iOS version, crash reports, and any feedback or screenshots you choose to send. We use them only to run the test and fix problems, and delete them when the test ends or you leave it.
Email and this website
Contact support in the app opens your own Mail app; nothing is sent until you send it. If you write to support@caddora.ie, we use your message and email address only to reply, and delete them once the conversation is finished with. This website sets no cookies and runs no analytics.
Changes
If the app ever needs to collect anything, this page will say so first, the App Store listing will say so, and the app will ask before doing it.
Contact
AppStato is made by Caddora, Naas, Co. Kildare, Ireland. Questions or requests: support@caddora.ie. You can also complain to the Data Protection Commission.
