Privacy

Last updated November 9, 2026

What leaves your phone

• Frames from your clip. When you analyze an attempt, the app pulls up to 48 still frames from the trimmed clip and sends them with the trick name, your stance, and whether you landed it. Our server forwards them to OpenAI to produce the breakdown, then discards them.
• A copy of your clip. With each analysis the app sends a low-resolution copy of the clip (at most 20 seconds, with location and device details removed). We use it, with the breakdown, to check and improve how well the AI reads tricks, and our team may review it. We don't use it for anything else, and we delete it on request.
• Spots and photos you add. When you post a spot or add a photo, we receive the photo (with its metadata removed), the pin you set, the kinds and name you chose, and a random player ID the app makes, kept in your iCloud. We use the ID to show you your own spots and to stop abuse; it doesn't identify you. Photos and names are checked automatically by OpenAI's moderation and then by our team, and once approved they're public to everyone using Skate AI. Reports you send and skaters you hide are kept with the same ID.
• Coach messages. Questions you ask the coach, plus your stance, the tricks you've landed, and a summary of your last attempt, go to OpenAI the same way and aren't stored by us.
• A usage record. For each analysis or coach reply we keep an anonymous app user ID, the time, the AI model used, and its cost. We use this to check your subscription and prevent abuse. It contains no frames, text, or personal details.
• Purchases. Subscriptions go through Apple. RevenueCat tells the app whether your subscription is active, using the same anonymous app user ID. We never see your payment details. If you ask Apple for a refund, RevenueCat sends Apple details of that purchase to help it decide.
• Usage analytics. In App Store builds, the app sends anonymous events such as "analysis completed" or "paywall shown" to PostHog, and the answers you pick in onboarding (how long you've skated, your level, the tricks you can land), so we can see which screens work. These never include your name, your clips or your messages. On the first launch after installing, the app also records its screens through PostHog, with text, typed text, images and videos hidden, so we can see where the app is confusing.
• Ad measurement (AppsFlyer and TikTok). We advertise Skate AI on TikTok and use AppsFlyer to measure which ads bring installs and subscribers. In App Store builds, the app sends AppsFlyer your installs and app opens with an install ID, the same anonymous app user ID, and device and network details such as the device model, iOS version and IP address, which AppsFlyer maps to a rough location (country or city). RevenueCat tells AppsFlyer when a free trial or subscription starts, renews, is cancelled or refunded, with its price. AppsFlyer shares installs, app opens and those subscription events with TikTok so TikTok can measure and improve our ads. When you first open the app, iOS asks whether Skate AI may track you: if you allow it, your device's advertising identifier (IDFA) and identifier for vendor are included; if you don't, they aren't. You can change this at any time in Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking. Your clips, frames, coach messages and onboarding answers are never sent to AppsFlyer or TikTok.
• Feedback you send. If you rate a breakdown, say what was off, or send feedback from Settings, we receive that text with the trick, score and app version, through PostHog and our team's chat. It never includes your clip.

What stays on your phone

The original clips, your analyses, your trick list and your location. The Spots map uses your location on your phone to show what's near you and to tag a try with the park you're at; it's sent only as the pin of a spot you choose to post. Deleting the app deletes all of it, and Settings → Delete my clips and attempts clears your clips and analyses without deleting the app.

OpenAI

We send data to OpenAI through its API with storage turned off. OpenAI doesn't use API data to train its models, and may keep it for up to 30 days to monitor abuse before deleting it.

This website

getskateai.com doesn't use cookies or ad trackers, and stores nothing in your browser. It uses PostHog to see how the site is used: the pages you view, the links and buttons you tap, tool results, taps on App Store links, how fast pages load, the site or link you came from (such as google.com, or a campaign tag in the link), and your browser and device type. To count visitors without storing anything, PostHog makes an anonymous ID from the date, your IP address and your browser's user agent, then discards the IP address. The ID changes every day, so nothing follows you from one day to the next and nothing identifies you. Our host, Vercel, keeps standard server logs, such as IP addresses and request times, to run and protect the site.

What we don't do

• No accounts, names, emails, or phone numbers.
• No contacts, no precise location sent anywhere except a spot you post, and no advertising identifier unless you allow tracking.
• No selling your data. The only sharing for advertising is the ad measurement described above.

Kids

Skate AI is made for skaters of all ages. We don't ask for or knowingly collect personal information such as names or contact details. Clip copies are seen only by our team, and spot photos must not show people's faces. To have anything removed, email hello@getskateai.com.
