The rebuilt app does not require an account or upload your journal to the developer. You choose when to export or share it.
Who operates Time Journal
Time Journal is developed by George Francis. For support or privacy enquiries, email g.digital.limited@gmail.com.
Which version this policy covers
This policy describes the rebuilt Time Journal for iPhone and iPad, version 1.1 and later. The original version 1.0 included Firebase and Google Mobile Ads. Those SDKs are not included in the rebuild; older releases may have different data-handling practices.
Your journal stays on your device
The rebuilt app stores entries, notes, tags, activities, preferences, running timers and recovered legacy records on your device. It does not require an account or send your journal to a developer-operated server. Cross-device journal synchronization is not currently included.
Device backups
Apple may include application data in device or iCloud backups according to your device and Apple Account settings. These system backups are separate from journal synchronization. You can manage backups through your Apple settings.
Subscriptions and purchases
Apple processes subscriptions, payments and purchase records. Time Journal uses StoreKit to retrieve product information and read verified purchase entitlements, provide Premium access and restore purchases. We do not receive your payment-card details or operate a separate purchase-account server. Apple handles its services under its privacy policy. Cancelling Premium does not delete journal records; purchase restoration does not restore a device-local journal.
Reminders
Reminders use local notifications with your permission. You can change or disable them in Time Journal or in your device notification settings. Journal reminders are not sent through a developer-operated notification server.
Exports and sharing
CSV exports and migration snapshots contain journal information. They leave the app when you choose to export or share them. The destination you choose handles those copies under its own privacy practices. Only share records with destinations you intend to receive them.
Retention and deletion
You can edit and delete entries in the app. Deleting an activity also deletes its entries after confirmation. Migration preserves the original database and a separate backup of imported records; editing or deleting an imported entry in the new journal does not erase those original copies. Removing the app removes its local application data, including local migration backups. Copies in system backups or exported destinations remain subject to those services and your settings. We cannot retrieve, correct or delete your local journal remotely because we do not hold it on our servers.
Analytics and advertising in the rebuild
The rebuilt app does not include third-party advertising or analytics SDKs, does not track you across other companies’ apps or websites, and does not sell journal information. Apple may make sales information and diagnostics available through its developer services, depending on Apple’s services and your settings.
Support enquiries
If you contact us, we receive the information you choose to send, such as your email address, message and attachments. We use it to answer your enquiry and address the reported problem. Please do not send your Apple Account password or payment-card details. Correspondence may be processed by the email service used for your enquiry and is retained only as needed to provide support and meet applicable legal obligations.
This policy website
This page is hosted on GitHub Pages. We do not add advertising, analytics scripts, external fonts or embedded tracking to it. GitHub logs visitors’ IP addresses for security when serving GitHub Pages. GitHub handles that information under its Privacy Statement. Visiting an external link is subject to that destination’s privacy practices.
Your choices and rights
You control local entries, notifications, exports and device backups. Depending on your location, you may also have rights concerning personal information you provide directly to us, such as in a support enquiry. Contact us about access, correction, deletion or other requests. You may contact your local data-protection authority; in the UK, this is the Information Commissioner’s Office. Contact Apple or GitHub about information they handle independently.
Changes and contact
We may update this policy as the app or its privacy practices change. The update date will appear on this page. Contact g.digital.limited@gmail.com with questions about Time Journal or this policy.
