Privacy Policy

In one glance

• No account and no Tidyday server. Your tasks are not uploaded to us.
• Your dumps, tasks, projects and focus pin are stored on your iPhone.
• AI folding is optional. Only after you tap Allow, and while Use AI is on, does Tidyday send information to DeepSeek.
• No ads, no analytics or attribution SDKs, no cross-app tracking, no App Tracking Transparency prompt, and no in-app purchases.

1. The dump

You can type your thoughts, paste text from the clipboard when you tap paste, or use Voice dump to speak them.

Voice dump uses Apple's speech recognition to turn your voice into text in the dump box. Depending on your iPhone and settings, Apple may process the audio on its servers under Apple's privacy policy. Tidyday does not keep the audio; only the resulting text stays in the box for you to edit.

You can also skip AI entirely and use Save task line to add a task exactly as you typed it.

2. The fold (optional AI)

When you ask Tidyday to split a dump, it shows a consent screen naming DeepSeek. If you tap Allow, and while Use AI stays on in Settings, each request sends DeepSeek:

• the dump text you are splitting;
• the titles, projects and done status of the tasks already saved in Tidyday, so new suggestions do not duplicate them;
• project names you chose earlier, used as preferences;
• today's date and your device's time zone, so phrases like "tomorrow morning" become the right date.

DeepSeek returns proposed tasks with titles, projects and due dates. Nothing is saved to your list until you review it and tap Keep.

Not sent: your contacts, location, photos, audio, or any account, device or advertising identifier.

Requests go over an encrypted connection straight to DeepSeek, which receives your IP address as part of the connection and processes the request under its own privacy policy (available from Provider policy in the app). We do not control how long DeepSeek keeps what it receives, so leave out passwords, health details or other sensitive information.

Stopping AI: choose Not now, or turn Use AI off in Settings. Further requests stop, and typing and saving tasks yourself keep working. Turning AI off cannot recall what DeepSeek already received.

3. Keeping your day

Kept tasks, their projects and dates, done marks, earlier dumps and today's focus pin are stored in Tidyday's private storage on your iPhone. Tidyday does not use iCloud sync and copies none of this to us.

Share this path opens the iOS share sheet with task text; it goes only where you send it. Save day card creates an image showing your focus task and saves it to your Photos library.

Permissions

| Permission | When it may be asked | What Tidyday does with it | | --- | --- | --- | | Microphone | You tap Voice dump | Captures your voice for speech-to-text | | Speech Recognition | You tap Voice dump | Turns your voice into dump text | | Photos | You tap From photos | Checks library access; no photo is uploaded | | Camera | You tap Camera snap | Checks camera access; no photo is uploaded | | Photos (add only) | You tap Save day card | Saves the day card image to your library |

All permissions are optional and can be changed in the iOS Settings app. Typing and pasting always work without them.

Removing your information

• Tasks you do not keep are discarded at review.
• Clear removes today's focus pin.
• Deleting Tidyday removes all of its tasks and settings from your iPhone. With no account or cloud copy, we cannot restore them.
• Day cards in Photos and anything you shared are managed outside Tidyday.

Purchases and Apple

Tidyday has no in-app purchases or subscriptions. Apple handles App Store downloads under its own terms.

Children

Tidyday is a general productivity tool and is not directed to children.

Changes

If Tidyday starts collecting or sharing information in a new way, we will update this policy and its effective date before that release.
