Privacy Policy
Everyday ("the app") is a daily selfie journal that runs entirely on your device. We designed it so that you stay in full control of your photos and personal data — nothing about you is collected, transmitted, or sold. This policy explains exactly what data the app uses, why it needs each permission, and where that data is stored.
1. Data the App Uses
Everyday only stores data that you create yourself by using the app:
- The selfies you take or import (stored in your iOS Photo Library).
- References to those photos and the dates they were taken (stored in the app's local database).
- Your reminder preferences (time of day, on/off).
- The app's onboarding state (whether you have completed setup).
We do not collect your name, email address, device identifier, IP address, advertising ID, or any other personal information.
2. Permissions and Why They Are Needed
Camera
Required to take a new selfie inside the app. The camera is only active while you have the capture screen open. The app does not record video or stream the camera feed anywhere.
Photo Library
Required to save new selfies to your Photo Library (in an album named "Everyday") and to read photos you choose to import during onboarding or from Settings. The app only reads photos that you select.
Location (When In Use)
Optional. If you grant access, the approximate location at the moment you capture a selfie is embedded in the photo's EXIF metadata — exactly like the system Camera app does. Location data is never transmitted off your device by the app. You can deny or disable this permission at any time in iOS Settings without affecting any other functionality.
Notifications
Optional. Used only to send you a local daily reminder to take your selfie. Notifications are scheduled and delivered entirely on your device through Apple's local notifications system. No notification content is sent through a remote server.
3. Where Your Data Is Stored
- On your device: the app's database of photo references and your preferences.
- In your iOS Photo Library: the selfie images themselves.
- In your private iCloud account (optional): if you are signed in to iCloud and iCloud is enabled for this app, the photo references sync between your own Apple devices through Apple's CloudKit service. This data is stored in your private iCloud database and is not accessible to the developer.
4. Data Sharing
We do not share, sell, rent, or disclose any of your data to third parties. We do not use any analytics, advertising, or tracking SDKs. There is no developer-operated backend service that receives data from the app.
5. Children's Privacy
Everyday is not directed at children under the age of 13 and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone, including children. Because the app does not collect personal data at all, there is no child-specific data to manage.
6. Your Choices
You can, at any time:
- Revoke camera, photo, location, or notification permissions in iOS Settings.
- Delete individual selfies from your Photo Library, which removes them from the app's timeline.
- Uninstall the app, which deletes the local database and all related preferences from your device.
7. Changes to This Policy
If this policy is updated, the new version will be published at this same URL with a revised "Last updated" date. Material changes will be reflected in the next app update's release notes.
