Privacy Policy

last updated: 2026-09-28

Dot is a local-first app. Your habits never leave your device.

What we collect

Your habits and completion records are stored only in a local SQLite database on your device and are never sent to a server. There is no account, so we never ask for your name or email.

Dot Pro status checks

Dot Pro (subscriptions and the Lifetime purchase) is bought and restored through the Apple App Store, and RevenueCat checks your purchase status. When the app launches, it contacts RevenueCat to check whether you have Pro and which products are for sale, even if you have never made a purchase. For this, RevenueCat receives a random anonymous user ID created by the app, your purchase history (product, purchase date, and expiration date, if you made a purchase), the app version, your device and OS type, your store country, and the time of the request. Your name, email, and payment method are handled by Apple; neither we nor RevenueCat receive them. Your habits are never included, and none of this is used for ads or tracking. Your IP address may reach RevenueCat's servers as part of these requests.

Third parties

Dot uses no advertising networks, analytics tools, crash reporters, or any service that can see your habits. The purchase information above is handled by RevenueCat, Inc. under the RevenueCat Privacy Policy (revenuecat.com/privacy).

Notifications

If you turn on the daily reminder, iOS schedules it on your device. No remote push servers are involved.

Data export

Export your data as JSON or CSV anytime from Settings → Export data. You send the file wherever you choose through the iOS share sheet.

Data deletion

Uninstalling the app erases all habit records on your device, and no copy of your habits is kept on any server. The anonymous user ID and purchase history sent to RevenueCat are kept under the RevenueCat Privacy Policy to verify purchases, handle refunds, and keep accounting records. To ask for deletion, email dev@indieway.xyz with the order ID from your App Store receipt so the purchase can be found, and we will ask RevenueCat to delete it.

Children

Dot is suitable for all ages and collects no personal information such as names or contact details from anyone, including children under 13.

Changes

If this policy changes, the update will appear here with a new date.
