Zero-Data OSS Environment: OSBARD, INC. operates Osbard’s Storybook Studio and all related OSS properties under one “Zero-Data” structural framework. That includes the Lobby at osbard.com and the desks at studio.osbard.com (Studio), color.osbard.com (Color Time!), scrippy.osbard.com (Scrippy), builder.osbard.com (Builder), reader.osbard.com (Reader), scoopy.osbard.com (Scoopy), pixer.osbard.com (Pixer), and other *.osbard.com surfaces (including planned desks such as Player and Fonty).
Architectural guarantee: The OSS codebase programmatically bars third-party marketing tags and identity trackers from executing inside Storybook Studio and aligned OSS web builds.
Osbard’s Storybook Studio and all OSS properties under OSBARD, INC. are organized around a strict “Zero-Data” creative philosophy. Younger creators must retain absolute freedom to learn, sketch, and develop skills without digital tracking, targeted profiling, behavioral tracking, or operational capitalization.
osbard.com (Lobby), Studio, Color Time! (Color Time Machine!), Scrippy, Scoopy, Builder, Reader, Pixer, and planned desks such as Player and Fonty are static, Zero-Data experiences. We do not operate newsletter signup flows, behavioral ad campaigns, Google Analytics (GA4), or child-directed marketing registration on OSS-hosted properties.
We do not knowingly collect, profile, or register children under the age of 13. OSBARD, INC. can receive identifiable information about a child only if a parent or legal guardian initiates direct contact (for example, by email).
Pursuant to the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), parents retain absolute authority to inspect, enforce removal of, or shut down further processing pipelines concerning any specific details transmitted via personal emails.

Limited Sub-Processor Matrix: OSS operates as a Zero-Data environment. We partner only with processors required to deliver static web hosting and anonymous, non-profiling telemetry:
Processing Minimization Constraints: Creative work stays on client devices. We retain personal data only when you voluntarily email us. Processing rests on Legitimate Interest or Consent and may be challenged via GDPR@osbard.com.
Architecture Rules: Storybook Studio and the other OSS desks run via client browser local memory storage. User canvas layouts, strokes, and layers are never transmitted to our servers for storage or inspection. OSS web surfaces do not deploy Google Analytics (GA4), marketing analytics, ad networks, or cross-site trackers.
Data Points Collected: Optional emails you send us directly; anonymous aggregated visit counts via Tally where enabled (app, country, and arrival host only; no cookies; no individual tracking; daily mail then wipe). Data in transit is protected with SSL/TLS. Contact privacy@osbard.com for access or deletion requests.
Ownership of Work: Users maintain full copyright, ownership, and reproduction authority over all original illustrations created inside the application workspace. OSBARD, INC. retains all legal protections for code, assets, and character brands.
Data & Storage Responsibility: We maintain no central user backups. Workspace layouts live solely inside the client’s local storage. System cache clearing or device issues will cause permanent data loss. Regular manual exporting is required. Tools are delivered completely “As-Is” with no operational liabilities.
