2. Data you create and iCloud synchronization

Moments lets you create and manage countdowns, count-ups, reminders, and important dates. The data you enter may include titles, start and target dates, repeat and reminder settings, appearance settings, and photos you add to your moments.

This data is stored locally on your device and in the app's shared local storage used by the app and its widgets.

When an iCloud account is available on your device, Moments automatically uses Apple CloudKit to store and synchronize your moments in your private iCloud database. This allows your moments to remain up to date across devices signed in to the same Apple Account. Existing local moments may be transferred to your private iCloud database when synchronization first becomes available.

If iCloud is unavailable, Moments continues to work with locally stored data, but synchronization is not available.

3. No separate account, no analytics, no advertising

Moments does not require you to create a separate account. iCloud synchronization uses the Apple Account configured on your device. Moments does not receive your Apple Account password or credentials.

Moments does not use third-party analytics, advertising SDKs, tracking, or profiling.

4. Notifications

If you enable reminders, Moments requests permission to send local notifications. Notification schedules are created and managed locally on each device based on the moments and reminder options you choose.

Reminder settings may be synchronized through iCloud. Notification permission itself is device-specific and must be enabled separately on each device. Enabling notifications on one device does not automatically enable them on another device. Notification permission is optional and can be changed at any time in your device settings.

5. Calendar access

Moments can import events from your calendar and export moments to your calendar if you choose to use those features.

Calendar access is only used after you grant permission. Imported event titles and dates are used to create moments in the app. Once imported, this data may be synchronized through iCloud like any other moment. Moments does not otherwise upload or synchronize the contents of your calendar. Exported data is written only to the calendar you select.

6. Apple services and data sharing

Moments does not send your moments to servers operated by the developer.

When iCloud synchronization is available, your moments are transmitted to and stored by Apple using CloudKit in your private iCloud database. Private CloudKit data is associated with your Apple Account, is accessible only to you by default, and is not visible to the developer through the Apple Developer Portal.

Apple processes this data under its own terms and privacy policy. Moments does not sell your data, share it for advertising, or use it for tracking or profiling.

7. Storage and deletion

Local data remains stored on your device until it is deleted in the app, the app's data is removed, or the app is uninstalled. Data synchronized through iCloud may remain in your private iCloud database even if you uninstall Moments from one device.

When you delete an individual moment, it is removed from the app and synchronized devices. To prevent an offline device from restoring it, a synchronization record containing the moment's title, dates, and settings remains in iCloud. Attached image data is removed.

You can permanently delete all moments and images from iCloud and all synchronized devices by opening Moments and selecting Settings > iCloud Data > Permanently Delete All Moments. Unsynchronized changes on other devices will also be discarded when those devices reconnect. This action cannot be undone.

Apple may retain system backups or other technical copies in accordance with its own retention policies.

8. Your rights

Under applicable data protection law, you may have rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, and objection, as well as the right to lodge a complaint with a competent supervisory authority.

If you are located in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, these rights may apply to you under applicable data protection law, including the GDPR or equivalent local rules.

Because the developer cannot access your private CloudKit database, you can view and manage synchronized moments directly in the app and use the deletion option described above. For questions about data processed by Apple as part of iCloud, please refer to Apple's privacy information.

For California residents, the app does not sell or share personal information and does not use personal data for cross-context behavioral advertising.

9. Changes to this privacy policy

This privacy policy may be updated when the app's features or data-handling practices change. The date of the latest revision is shown at the top of this page.

10. Complaints

If you believe that your privacy rights have been violated, you may contact us using the contact details above and, where applicable, lodge a complaint with a competent data protection supervisory authority.
