Privacy Policy
Effective date: May 7, 2025
The short version: Unbottled stores everything locally on your device. We do not collect, transmit, or have access to any of your personal data, conversation notes, or usage information. There are no accounts, no servers, and no analytics.
Unbottled does not collect any personal information. Specifically, the app does not:
We cannot see your data because it never leaves your device.
Unbottled stores the following data locally on your iPhone. This data is never transmitted off your device.
| Data | Storage | Shared |
|---|---|---|
| Conversation topics, private notes, shareable drafts | SwiftData (on-device database) | Never |
| People and relationship types | SwiftData (on-device database) | Never |
| Biometric lock preference | iOS Keychain | Never |
| Notification privacy preference | iOS Keychain | Never |
| Onboarding completion state | iOS Keychain | Never |
| Scheduled reminder times | iOS notification system (local only) | Never |
Unbottled can optionally use Face ID or Touch ID to lock access to the app. Biometric data is processed entirely by the iOS operating system. Unbottled never receives, stores, or has access to your biometric information. The app only receives a pass/fail result from the system.
Reminder notifications are scheduled locally using the iOS notification system. No data is sent to Apple's push notification servers or any other remote service. Notification content can be configured to hide topic details for additional privacy.
When you copy a shareable draft to the clipboard, the copied text is marked as device-local only (it will not sync to other devices via Universal Clipboard) and automatically expires after 2 minutes.
If you choose to share a draft through the system share sheet (Messages, Mail, or another app), the text leaves Unbottled and enters the app you selected. At that point, privacy is governed by that app's own policies. Unbottled shows a one-time privacy notice before your first share to make this clear.
You are in full control of your data:
There is no backup or recovery option because your data is never copied off your device.
Unbottled does not knowingly collect any information from anyone, including children under 13. Since no data is collected at all, no special provisions are necessary.
If this privacy policy is updated, the changes will be posted on this page with a revised effective date. Since Unbottled collects no data today, any future changes would be reflected in a new version of the app.
