Privacy policy

The short version

iChecks has no account, no sign-in and no server. It collects nothing about you and sends nothing anywhere. Your checklists and your completed runs are stored on your device, and they leave it only when you choose to share them yourself.

That is not a policy position that might be revised quietly — in this version the app contains no networking code of its own at all.

What iChecks collects about you

Nothing. Specifically, this version of the app:

• has no account and no sign-in, so it never asks who you are;
• contains no analytics, no crash-reporting SDK, no advertising and no third-party code of any kind that reports on your use of it;
• performs no tracking as the App Store defines it, and never will;
• makes no network requests of its own — there is nowhere for anything to go.

This is declared to Apple in the app's privacy manifest, where the list of collected data types is empty.

What is stored on your device

Everything the app is for:

• the checklists you write, edit or import, kept as the original files;
• your runs — which items you ticked, when, and any comments you added;
• the timestamps a completion record needs, including the time zone you were in;
• your settings, such as the chosen theme and which categories are collapsed.

This lives in the app's own storage on the device. Nobody else can read it, and it is deleted when you delete the app.

One thing worth knowing: if you have iPhone or iPad backups switched on, your app data is included in those backups, in the same way as any other app's. That backup is yours, held under your Apple Account, and is governed by Apple's terms rather than by this policy.

What leaves your device, and only when you do it

Two things, both of which need a deliberate action from you:

1. Sharing or exporting a checklist. The app hands the file to the standard iOS share sheet, and you choose the destination — Mail, Files, AirDrop, another app. Where it goes from there is between you and that destination.
2. Sending feedback. The Send feedback row on the About screen opens your email app with a message already addressed to christophe@argocy.com and pre-filled with the app version, the build number and your iOS version. The app does not send it — you do, and you can edit or delete anything in it first. If you do send it, that email is held in an ordinary mailbox for as long as it is useful to answer you, and is used for nothing but answering you.

While iChecks is in TestFlight

The beta is distributed through Apple's TestFlight. Two things follow from that, neither of which the app itself does:

• Apple gives testers' email addresses to the developer, because that is how a TestFlight invitation works. That address is used to send you builds and to reply to your feedback. Nothing else.
• Apple collects crash reports and basic usage data from TestFlight builds and shows them to the developer in aggregate. That is Apple's mechanism, described in Apple's own privacy policy, and it is the only reporting of any kind attached to this app. You can leave the beta at any time by removing the app from TestFlight.

Children

iChecks is a tool for working professionals. It is not directed at children and collects nothing from anyone, of any age.

Your rights

Under the GDPR you have the right to access, correct, export and erase personal data held about you. In this version there is almost nothing to exercise them against: no personal data is collected by the app, and the only records that exist anywhere are the emails you have chosen to send. Ask, and they will be shown to you or deleted.

To delete everything the app holds, delete the app. There is no copy elsewhere.

Changes to this policy

Two planned releases will make the statements above untrue, and this document will be updated in the same release that changes them — not afterwards:

• v0.2 adds an optional location stamp and a signature on completion records. Both are data about a person, and both will be declared.
• v1.0 adds optional sync through your own iCloud account. At that point your data does leave the device — to Apple, under your Apple Account, not to a server run by the developer.

The version this policy applies to is stated at the top. If the app version on your device is newer than that, ask.
