ShootAndRule is a shooting scorer that runs entirely on your device. This page explains exactly what it handles and what it does not.
The short version. ShootAndRule scores your target cards using your phone's camera. The camera feed is analysed on the device and never uploaded. Your scores, card photographs and equipment notes are stored only on your phone. There are no adverts, no analytics, no trackers, and nothing is sold or shared with anyone. The only optional exception is signing in with Google, which is described below.
ShootAndRule is built and published by Jagraaj ("we", "us"). If you have a question about this policy or about your data, contact us at rjk00004@gmail.com.
| What | Why | Where it goes |
|---|---|---|
| Camera images | To find the target card and detect pellet holes so shots can be scored automatically. | Analysed live on your device. Individual frames are not saved or transmitted. |
| Card photographs | A photo is taken when each card is finished, so you have a record of the group and can check any score. | Saved in the app's private storage on your phone. Not uploaded. |
| Scores and shot positions | To build your match reports, statistics and history. | Stored in a database on your phone. Not uploaded. |
| Equipment and match details | Rifle make, model, calibre, serial number, pellet brand and shooter name, if you choose to enter them, so a score means something later. | Stored on your phone alongside the match. Not uploaded. |
| Google account details | Only if you choose to sign in: your email address, display name and profile picture URL, used to label your scorecards. | Stored on your phone. See "Signing in with Google" below. |
| App settings | Discipline, detection sensitivity, sound and vibration preferences. | Stored on your phone. |
This is the whole point of the app: it reads your target card through the camera to find where each pellet struck. The camera is used only while a scoring screen is open. You can revoke this permission at any time in Android Settings, though automatic scoring will not work without it.
Used to buzz when a shot registers, so you know it was counted without breaking position. It can be turned off in the app's Setup screen.
The "Calculate a card" feature can read a card you have already shot from an existing photograph. When you use it, Android shows you a picker and the app receives only the single image you choose. It never browses your gallery.
Signing in is entirely optional and the app is fully usable without it. If you do sign in:
Your data stays on your device until you remove it. You are in full control:
Because nothing is stored on our servers, there is nothing for us to delete on your behalf and no request you need to send us. If Android Backup is enabled on your device, your scores may be included in your own Google backup, which is governed by Google's policies and controlled from your device settings.
Target shooting is a youth sport and junior shooters commonly use scoring apps. ShootAndRule does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone, of any age — it stores scores on the shooter's own device. We do not build profiles, serve adverts, or transmit any information about a user. Where a junior shooter uses the app, we recommend it be used signed out, in which case no account information is involved at all.
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, export or erase personal data held about you. Because ShootAndRule holds your data only on your own device and we hold none of it, you can exercise all of these directly and immediately through the app and your Android settings, as described above. If you would like help doing so, write to us at rjk00004@gmail.com.
Your matches and photographs are kept in the app's private storage area, which Android isolates from other apps on the device. Since nothing is transmitted, there is no server-side store of your shooting data to be breached. Please note that the security of the device itself — its lock screen, its backups — is outside our control.
If the app ever gains a feature that changes what it handles — cloud sync, for example — this page will be updated before that feature ships, and the date at the top will change. Material changes will also be announced in the app.
