1. What information do we process?

In brief: Information processed by the App relates directly to your daily journaling and is primarily created on your device.

1.1 Journal and entry content

• Text you write for a given day;
• The calendar date associated with each entry;
• Optional mood tags you select;
• One optional photo per entry, from your library or camera.

1.2 App-related data

• Local preferences such as biometric lock, appearance (light/dark/system), language, color theme, and iCloud sync;
• Statistics derived locally from your entries (total days, streaks, etc.) shown inside the App.

1.3 What we do not actively collect

We do not require an account or ask for your name, phone number, or similar identifiers for developer registration. We do not use your journal for profiling or advertising. Except when you choose to export or email us for support, we do not ask you to send us full journal content.

2. How do we use this information?

In brief: To provide, maintain, and improve core features such as journaling, calendar browsing, lists, stats, settings, and export on your device.

• Save and read entries locally so you can view, edit, or delete them;
• When authorized, access one photo you select from the library or camera for an entry;
• When enabled, use system biometric or passcode verification for app unlock and sensitive actions such as “Reset All Data”;
• When iCloud sync is enabled, use Apple CloudKit capabilities to sync data between your device and iCloud (see next section);
• When you export, generate local files and hand them to you through the system share interface;
• When you initiate “Reset All Data” and pass verification, delete all journal entries in the App.

3. iCloud sync and third parties

Apple iCloud / CloudKit: With iCloud sync off, data stays on your device by default. With sync on, SwiftData-related data syncs to your iCloud account under Apple’s mechanisms. Scope, availability, and security depend on your Apple ID, network, iOS version, and Apple policies.

The App does not include a developer-operated “cloud journal server” for your text and images. We cannot directly read your iCloud content like a private database we control.

System & sharing: When you use in-app feedback links to open Mail, or share exported files through the system share sheet, the information is handled by the app or service you choose. Please review their privacy policies as well.

4. How long is information retained?

• On device: You may edit or delete individual entries, or delete all entries via “Reset All Data.” Uninstalling the App usually removes local data (subject to iOS behavior).
• iCloud: If sync was enabled, some data may remain in iCloud linked to your Apple account until you delete entries on device, reset all data, or manage data through Apple’s account tools. See Apple’s documentation for details.

5. How do we protect your information?

Data is primarily protected by your device’s security (screen lock, sandboxing). Optional in-app unlock adds another layer if others may access your device. Keep your device and Apple account secure, and use iCloud sync on trusted networks.

6. Your rights and controls

You can manage entries and settings in the App at any time, including export for backup, deleting individual entries, and “Reset All Data” after double confirmation and identity verification. Where applicable law grants rights to access, correct, or delete personal information stored on your device or in your iCloud account, you can usually exercise them through in-app deletion, system settings, or Apple account tools. Contact us using Section 8 if you have questions about this policy.

7. Updates to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The revised “Last updated” date will reflect the current version. For material changes, we will provide notice when appropriate. We encourage you to review this page occasionally.
