PRIVACY POLICY

OVERVIEW

QuestLog is a personal journaling app. Your data stays on your device and in your personal iCloud account. We do not operate analytics or advertising systems, sell your personal information, or receive copies of your journal entries. Limited data is sent to third-party services only when needed for features you choose to use, as described below.

DATA WE ACCESS

LOCATION

QuestLog uses your location to attach weather and place context to your journal entries. Location data is stored locally on your device and in your personal iCloud account. It is never transmitted to our servers.

CAMERA & PHOTO LIBRARY

QuestLog lets you attach photos to your journal entries. Photos are stored locally on your device and in your personal iCloud account. They are never uploaded to or accessed by our servers.

FACE ID / BIOMETRICS

QuestLog offers an optional biometric lock to keep your journal private. Face ID authentication is handled entirely by iOS. We never access or store your biometric data.

NOTIFICATIONS

QuestLog can send optional daily reminders to help you maintain your journaling habit. You can enable or disable these at any time in Settings.

ICLOUD SYNC

If you have iCloud enabled, your entries, attachments, app settings, and custom themes sync to your personal iCloud account via Apple's infrastructure. This data is governed by Apple's Privacy Policy.

THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

QuestLog uses Open-Meteo (open-meteo.com) to fetch weather data based on your current location. Open-Meteo receives only a latitude and longitude - no personal identifying information is sent.

Apple's MapKit and geocoding services process location and place-search requests used to show nearby places and readable location names. Apple's use of that data is governed by Apple's Privacy Policy.

GIF search is powered by Klipy. When you search for a GIF, your search term is sent to Klipy's API. Klipy's use of that data is governed by Klipy's Privacy Policy.

SYSTEM INTEGRATIONS

When QuestLog's authentication lock is off, journal text may be indexed by iOS Spotlight so you can find entries in system search. Turning the authentication lock on removes QuestLog entries from Spotlight.

Optional "On This Day" notifications may show a short journal excerpt. When the authentication lock is on, these notifications use a generic message instead.

DATA RETENTION

All journal data is stored on your device and in your personal iCloud account. Deleting the app removes all local data. iCloud data can be managed through your device's iCloud settings.
