kept runs on your iPhone. By default, it makes no network calls and stores everything locally. iCloud sync is an optional Pro feature that you control. We don't operate any servers and we never see your documents.
None. kept has no analytics, no crash reporting, no advertising IDs, no usage telemetry, and no account system. There is no kept user database because we don't operate any servers.
None. The only signal that ever leaves your device is the anonymous MetricKit summary Apple aggregates from every iOS app — we never receive it.
All of the above can be wiped at any time by deleting the app or via Settings → kept → Reset.
If you enable iCloud sync (a kept pro feature), kept uses Apple's CloudKit to synchronize your documents across your own Apple devices. This data lives in your private iCloud container, end-to-end encrypted by Apple. We do not have access to it. We do not see it. We do not store it on any kept-operated infrastructure (there is none).
You can disable iCloud sync at any time in Settings → kept → iCloud Sync. Local-only mode is always available.
On iPhone 15 Pro and newer, kept uses Apple's on-device Foundation Models framework to suggest document titles, categories, and stack groupings. All AI processing happens on your device. No document text ever leaves your iPhone for AI processing. On older devices, kept falls back to local keyword heuristics.
kept pro is enabled for Apple Family Sharing — your purchase unlocks kept pro for up to 5 family members in your iCloud Family Group. Family Sharing only shares the app purchase, not your documents. Each family member uses their own iPhone, their own iCloud, their own kept library. We never see family relationships, member names, or who-shared-what.
If you connect kept to Apple Reminders (an optional Pro feature), kept creates reminders for due-date actions. This integration uses Apple's EventKit framework — we never see your reminders, only push entries via Apple's API.
kept does not knowingly collect any data from anyone, including children under 13. Since kept collects no data at all, this is automatic.
If we update this policy, the change date above will be revised. We will not retroactively change the policy to collect data that wasn't collected before.
