Privacy

The full, binding text is the TidyShop privacy policy. This page is the short version.

The short version

  • Your lists stay on your phone. There's no TidyShop account and no TidyShop cloud.
  • The developer receives nothing. No analytics, no crash reporting, no advertising identifier, no ads.
  • Anything that leaves your phone goes somewhere you chose, and only once you turn it on:
Feature What's sent Where
Family sharing Family lists, your name, your device's public key, your server backups The family server your household runs
Google Drive backup Your backups Your own Google Drive, in the app's private area
Single sign-on Sign-in, handled by your identity provider The identity provider your household runs
Gravatar picture A one-way SHA-256 hash of your email Gravatar
Send a copy The list, inside the link Whoever you send it to

What's stored where

  • On your phone: lists, profile, settings, and your app-lock PIN, stored only as a salted hash. Uninstalling TidyShop deletes all of it.
  • On a family server: family lists, household members, and, only if you save them there, your backups. Personal lists aren't sent unless they're inside a backup you uploaded. A device's private key never leaves the phone's hardware keystore. The server only knows the public half.

Because the developer holds no copy of your data, there's nothing for the developer to delete. You stay in control of every copy.
