Your recovery stays yours
Privacy Policy
Effective July 29, 2026
At a glance
NailPause works without an account. Your plan, check-ins, notes, recovery photos, reminder choices, and detailed progress stay on your device. We do not sell personal information, show ads, or track you across apps and websites.
Photos are stored locally on your device and are never uploaded to NailPause, RevenueCat, or an advertising service.
Information stored on your device
NailPause stores the information you enter locally so the app can provide its core experience. This may include:
- Your quit plan, goals, streak, check-ins, and reflections.
- Urge, trigger, and recovery activity recorded in the app.
- Photos you choose to capture or add to your recovery journey.
- Reminder, appearance, and privacy preferences.
A limited progress snapshot may be shared between the NailPause app and its widgets using Apple App Group storage on your device. This information is not sent to us.
Purchases and subscriptions
Purchases are processed by Apple. We use RevenueCat to validate purchases, restore Pro access, and understand subscription performance. RevenueCat may receive an anonymous app user identifier, product and purchase status, and limited technical information required to operate and secure the purchase service.
NailPause does not provide RevenueCat with your recovery photos, plan, notes, check-ins, or reflections. We do not use RevenueCat data for advertising or cross-app tracking.
You can learn more in the Apple Privacy Policy and RevenueCat Privacy Policy.
Notifications and camera access
NailPause asks for notification permission only when you choose to enable reminders. Notifications are scheduled on your device. The camera is requested only when you choose to capture a recovery photo.
Support messages
If you contact us, we receive the email address, message, and any information you voluntarily include. We use it only to respond, troubleshoot, protect the service, and keep an appropriate support record. Please do not send sensitive health information or private photos in a support email.
Retention and deletion
On-device data remains until you delete an item, use “Erase all NailPause data” in Settings, or delete the app. Because NailPause does not use an account or cloud backup, we cannot recover data erased from your device.
Purchase records are retained by Apple and RevenueCat as needed to provide purchases, restore access, prevent fraud, meet legal obligations, and maintain financial records under their respective policies.
Children
NailPause is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, contact us so we can address it.
Your choices and rights
You control local data through the app and iOS settings. Depending on where you live, you may also have rights to request access, correction, deletion, or information about personal data handled by us. Contact us and we will respond as required by applicable law.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy when the app or legal requirements change. The effective date above will be updated when changes are published.
