Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 2, 2026

The short version: MindQuay does not collect, store, transmit, sell, or share any personal data. There is no account, no sign-up, and no server. Every thought you write, every session you complete, and every setting you choose lives only on your device. We could not read your data even if we wanted to — it never leaves your iPhone.

Data in the app

MindQuay stores the following on your device, and only on your device:

• Your thoughts: everything you write during a docking ritual, along with how you triaged each thought ("Let it go," "Tomorrow," or "Needs action").
• Your sessions: records of completed rituals, which power your streak and the weekly harbor review.
• Your settings: preferences such as your chosen soundscape and your optional evening reminder time.

All of this is saved locally using Apple's SwiftData framework. It is never uploaded anywhere. There is no MindQuay account and no MindQuay server, so there is nothing to sync, back up to us, or breach on our end.

You are always in control of your data. Deleting the app removes everything it stored. You can also use Settings > Delete all my data inside the app to erase everything instantly without deleting the app itself.

What we don't do

• No analytics: the app contains no analytics SDK and sends no usage data.
• No ads and no ad networks.
• No tracking of any kind, across apps or websites.
• No third-party SDKs that collect data.
• No selling, renting, or sharing of data; we have no data to sell.

The app makes no network calls at all, with one exception: Apple's StoreKit, used solely to process your subscription (see below).

Purchases

MindQuay subscriptions are processed entirely by Apple through the App Store using StoreKit. We never receive your name, payment details, billing address, or any other account information from a purchase. The transaction is between you and Apple and is governed by Apple's privacy policy.

Notifications & dictation

If you enable the evening reminder, it is a local notification scheduled directly on your device by iOS. No reminder data is sent to any server, ours or anyone else's.

If you use the microphone button on the iOS keyboard to dictate a thought, that dictation is a feature of Apple's iOS keyboard, not of MindQuay. It is handled by Apple according to Apple's policies; the app simply receives the resulting text, which stays on your device like everything else.

This website

This website (mindquay.com) is a static site. It sets no cookies, runs no analytics, and loads no third-party scripts.

The site is hosted on GitHub Pages. As with any web host, GitHub may log standard web-server request data, such as your IP address and browser user agent, when you visit. That logging is performed by GitHub, not by us, and is described in the GitHub General Privacy Statement. We never see or receive that data.

Children

MindQuay is not directed at children under 13. Because the app collects no data from anyone, child or adult, we do not knowingly (or unknowingly) collect personal information from children.

Changes

If this policy ever changes, we will post the updated version on this page with a new "Last updated" date. Because the app collects no data, we expect changes to be rare.
