Privacy Policy – Guided Writer
Effective Date: October 18, 2025 Developer: Basilios P. (“we,” “us,” or “our”) App: Guided Writer for iOS
Your privacy matters. Guided Writer was built on the belief that creativity should be personal — your words stay yours. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the rights you have as a user.
1. Information We Do Not Collect
Guided Writer does not collect, store, sell, or share any personally identifiable information.
Specifically
- We do not require account sign-up or login.
- We do not collect names, email addresses, device identifiers, or location data.
- We do not track your writing activity or usage analytics.
- We do not access contacts, photos, microphone, or camera.
2. On-Device Processing
All AI suggestions, text completions, and editing enhancements are powered by Apple’s on-device Foundation Model. Your text is processed locally on your device using Apple Intelligence APIs — nothing is transmitted to external servers.
3. Optional Features and Data Storage
If you choose to save your writing, your drafts are stored securely in Apple’s local storage or iCloud Drive under your Apple ID. We never see, collect, or control this content; it is governed by Apple’s iCloud terms and your personal iCloud settings.
4. Crash Reports and Diagnostics
If you opt in to share app analytics or crash reports through Apple’s system settings (Settings › Privacy & Security › Analytics & Improvements), Apple may provide us with anonymous, aggregated diagnostic data. This data contains no personal information and is used solely to identify performance issues and improve app reliability.
5. Children’s Privacy
Guided Writer is safe for general audiences but not directed toward children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from children. If you believe a child has provided data, contact us immediately.
6. Third-Party Services
Guided Writer does not integrate any third-party analytics, advertising SDKs, or external APIs that process personal data. All functionality runs natively within Apple’s secure ecosystem.
7. Security Practices
Your writings and preferences remain on your device or iCloud account protected by Apple’s encryption. We follow Apple’s Developer Program License and App Store Review Guidelines to maintain user safety and integrity.
8. Your Rights and Control
You may delete all data at any time by removing the app or deleting its files from iCloud Drive. Because we do not maintain external servers, deletion is immediate and irreversible.
9. Policy Updates
We may occasionally update this Privacy Policy to reflect feature improvements or legal requirements. The most recent version will always be available in-app and at [your-website-URL.com/privacy]. Continued use after updates indicates acceptance of the revised terms.
