This Privacy Policy explains how Nightbook ("we", "us", or "our") handles information when you use the Nightbook iOS app and the nightbook.app website (together, the "Service"). By using the Service, you agree to the collection and use of information as described in this policy.
What data we collect
Journal entries, titles, mood tags, constellation names, reminder settings, and other app content are stored locally on your device. Nightbook does not transmit or store your personal journal content on our servers. We do not collect your name, email address, or other personal identifying information through the app unless you contact us directly.
iCloud sync
If you enable iCloud through your device settings, your Nightbook data may be synchronised using Apple's iCloud services. This synchronisation is managed entirely by Apple, and Apple's privacy policy and terms of service apply to that data. We do not have access to your iCloud account or the data stored within it.
Analytics and diagnostics
Nightbook does not use third-party behavioural analytics or tracking services. We do not collect usage data, browsing history, or device identifiers for advertising purposes. If we introduce minimal, anonymised diagnostics in the future (such as crash reporting), we will update this policy before any new collection begins and, where required by law, seek your consent.
Website analytics
The nightbook.app website may use privacy-respecting, cookieless analytics to understand aggregate visitor trends (such as page views and referral sources). These tools do not use cookies, do not collect personal data, and do not track individual visitors across sites.
Subscriptions and payment data
Subscription purchases are processed by Apple through the App Store. Nightbook does not directly collect, process, or store your payment card information or Apple ID credentials. For information about how Apple handles payment data, please refer to Apple's privacy policy.
No third-party data sharing
Nightbook does not sell, rent, or share your personal data or journal content with third parties for advertising, profiling, or any other commercial purpose.
Data export
You can export your journal data as JSON at any time for backup or portability. Export files are created locally at your request. Because exported files may contain sensitive personal content, please store them securely.
Security and device access
Nightbook supports Face ID and Touch ID protection where available on your device. Your journal data is protected by your device's built-in encryption when a passcode is set. You are responsible for keeping your device passcode, backups, and iCloud credentials secure.
Children's privacy
Nightbook is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.
Your choices
- You can delete all app data from your device at any time by deleting the app.
- You can disable reminders through app settings or device notification settings.
- You can choose whether to enable iCloud sync through your device settings.
- You can export your data at any time using the in-app export feature.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you through the app or by updating the effective date at the top of this page. Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
