Privacy Policy

Hrdlicka Apps LLC ("we," "us," "our") built WhisperKeep, and this policy explains what happens to your information when you use it.

What stays on your device, always

• Your voice — never recorded to disk, never uploaded, and discarded the instant it's transcribed to text.
• Your journal entries — encrypted with a key generated in your device's Secure Enclave, unlocked only with Face ID, Touch ID, or your device passcode.
• Everything else the app remembers about you — language preference, reminder times, streak stats, and Apple Watch sync data — stored only in this app's private, on-device storage, or synced device-to-device via Apple's iCloud/Watch connectivity, which we never see.

What leaves your device

Only what you explicitly choose to share:

• Exporting your entries (Markdown, JSON, plain text, or PDF) through the share sheet — where that export goes next is entirely up to you.
• Emailing us a bug report from the in-app Debug Console.

Nothing leaves your device automatically, and we have no server to send it to even if it did.

Third-party services

None, with one narrow exception: if your device or language isn't supported by Apple's on-device speech recognition, WhisperKeep may use WhisperKit, an open-source, on-device transcription library. It also runs entirely on your device and makes no network calls during transcription itself — only, on first use, to download its model files.

In-app purchases

WhisperKeep offers a one-time Premium unlock and optional tip jar purchases, processed entirely by Apple through StoreKit. We never see your payment details — Apple's own privacy policy governs that transaction. We only receive confirmation of what you purchased, which we use to unlock the corresponding features on your device.

Crisis and safety features

WhisperKeep includes an optional, off-by-default feature that scans your entry text on-device for language associated with crisis or self-harm, in order to surface a crisis resource screen. This scan happens entirely on your device — no content, and no fact of whether it was triggered, is ever transmitted anywhere, including to us.

Children's privacy

WhisperKeep is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect information from anyone, of any age — there is no collection to speak of, from any user.

Your rights

Because we never receive, store, or have access to your personal data, there is nothing for us to provide, correct, or delete on your behalf. Your journal data lives only on your device (and, if you enable iCloud Backup, wherever your Apple ID keeps your device backups) — deleting the app deletes it.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the "Last updated" date above will change with it. Continued use of the app after a change means you accept the update.
