--- title: Privacy Policy - Tended source: https://tended.mintbyte.app/privacy description: Tended’s privacy policy: what the app collects, why, and what never leaves your iPhone. No account, no cloud sync, anonymous analytics only. --- # Privacy Policy Last Updated: August 2026 At **Tended**, we value your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our mobile application and related services. ## 1. Information We Collect To provide and improve Tended, we collect limited usage data and device information through third-party analytics services (such as Amplitude): - **Identifiers:** Randomly generated Device IDs or Instance IDs used to distinguish app sessions. We do not collect your real name, email address, or phone number within the app. - **Usage Data:** Information about how you interact with the app, such as features accessed, task completion events, onboarding choices, and general navigation patterns. - **Coarse Location:** Non-precise location data (country or city level) automatically derived from your IP address. - **Search & Support Interactions:** Keywords typed in the task catalog search bar and feedback or customer support communications you submit to us. ## 2. How We Use Your Information We use the collected data solely for the following internal purposes: - To analyze app performance, fix bugs, and optimize user experience. - To understand which tasks, categories, and features are most valuable to our users. - To respond to your support requests or feedback. ## 3. In-App Purchases and Subscription Data All financial transactions and subscription management (including payments, renewals, and free trials) are processed entirely by Apple via the App Store. We do not process, store, or have access to your payment card details, billing address, or Apple ID account credentials. ## 4. Data Sharing and Advertising **We do not sell your personal data.** We do not use third-party advertising networks, nor do we track you across other companies' apps or websites. Your analytics data is shared only with service providers acting on our behalf (e.g., Amplitude) strictly for app operational and diagnostic purposes. ## 5. This Website This policy also covers **tended.mintbyte.app**. The website's analytics are kept separate from the app's — a different Amplitude project, no shared identifier, and no way to connect a visit here to an install. **What the website records:** which page you opened, the site that linked you to it, the country your request came from, and clicks on the App Store buttons, the interactive demo, and the source links inside our guides. Referring sites arrive as a domain rather than a specific page — that is all a browser passes along. **What it does not:** your IP address is not stored, no profile of you is built, and nothing is shared with advertising networks or used to follow you around other websites. **Cookies and storage.** The website sets no advertising or tracking cookies. For visitors in the EU, EEA, United Kingdom and Switzerland nothing is stored on the device at all: the random identifier exists only in the page's memory and is gone the moment you close the tab, so a second visit is simply a new anonymous count. Elsewhere that identifier is kept in your browser's local storage instead, so returning to read a second guide is not counted as a second person. Either way it holds no personal information and is never shared. **Legal basis, and how to opt out.** We rely on legitimate interest — knowing which guides are worth writing more of. You can withdraw at any time: [turn website analytics off for this browser](https://tended.mintbyte.app/#). The Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control browser signals are honoured automatically, with no action needed from you. ## 6. Data Security Your local task schedules, custom intervals, and progress history remain stored securely on your device. Analytics transmission is encrypted in transit using industry-standard protocols (HTTPS/TLS). ## 7. Children’s Privacy Tended is rated 4+ and is suitable for general audiences. We do not knowingly solicit or collect personal information from children under the age of 13. If you believe that a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us so we can promptly delete such information. ## 8. Changes to This Policy We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date. ## 9. Contact Us If you have any questions or suggestions regarding this Privacy Policy, please contact us at: Email: [subbotin@mintbyte.app](mailto:subbotin@mintbyte.app) --- ## About Tended Tended is an iOS app that ships with a researched catalog of 241 recurring maintenance items across six areas of life: home, health, digital, car, supplies and finances. Every item carries a recommended interval and the reason it matters, and most cite a named source. The intervals quoted on this page come from that catalog. Setup is a short conversation: you pick the part of life to start with and answer up to seven questions about it, and the app spreads the items that apply across the next twelve months. $39.99 a year with the first month free, or $6.99 a month. iPhone, iOS 26 or later. https://tended.mintbyte.app
