Privacy policyIn effect 14 July 2026
What Writ knows about you.
Nothing. Writ has no account, no server, and no analytics — there is nowhere for your decisions to go, and no one here to read them. This page says exactly that, at greater length, because you should not have to take it on faith.
This policy covers the Writ iPhone app and this website. It is written by the app's sole developer, who operates no back end of any kind.
The record
№ 001-
§1
What we collect
Nothing. There is no list here because there is no list. Writ does not collect, receive, store, or process any personal information about you.
There is no account and no sign-up. You never give us your name, your email, or your identity. We do not know that you have installed the app, we do not know when you open it, and we do not know what you write in it.
-
§2
No analytics, no tracking, no third parties
Writ contains no analytics, no telemetry, no crash reporting, no advertising, and no third-party SDKs. Nothing in the app reports back — it has no address to report to.
The app does not track you, within the app or across any other apps and websites. It shares no data with anyone, and sells no data to anyone. This is recorded formally in the app's privacy manifest, which declares no tracking, no tracking domains, and no collected data types.

§3
Where your entries live
Your decisions are written to storage on your own device.
If you have iCloud switched on, they also sync through Apple's CloudKit into your own private iCloud database — the one attached to your Apple Account, inside a container we can request but cannot read. We hold no keys to it. We cannot see it, cannot access it, and cannot recover it for you. That storage is governed by Apple's iCloud terms and Apple's privacy policy, between you and Apple.
If you leave iCloud switched off, your entries stay on the device and go nowhere at all.
-
§4
What the app stores on the device
Alongside your entries, Writ writes your own settings and preferences to the device's standard preference store, and reads file timestamps in order to manage its own files. Both stay on the device. Neither is sent anywhere.
-
§5
Purchases
Subscriptions and purchases are handled entirely by Apple through the App Store. Payment is a transaction between you and Apple.
We never see your payment details, your card, or your billing address — Apple does not give them to us, and we do not ask. The only thing the app learns from Apple is whether a Pro entitlement is currently active: a yes or a no, attached to no name.
-
§6
Exports
Writ can prepare a PDF report or a CSV file of your decisions. Those files are made on your device, and they leave it only if you send them somewhere — through the iOS share sheet, by your own hand, to a destination you pick. They are never uploaded to us.
-
§7
Deleting your data
Deleting an entry deletes it. Deleting the app removes the data it kept on the device. Anything that was synced to your iCloud stays under your control through your Apple Account settings, where you can remove it.
You do not need to ask us, because there is nothing on our side to delete. If you want your record gone, it is gone the moment you remove it — there is no copy anywhere else.
-
§8
Your rights, and why they are quiet here
Privacy law gives you the right to see the personal data a company holds about you, to correct it, and to have it erased. We hold none, so there is nothing for us to show you, correct, or erase. We make no profile of you, and no automated decisions about you.
This is not a legal fiction dressed up in a clause. It is the plain consequence of an app with no server.
-
§9
This website
This site loads no scripts, sets no cookies, and makes no third-party requests. There is nothing here to consent to.
-
§10
Changes, and how you will know
If this policy changes, the date at the head of the page changes with it. Writ is a journal about not revising the record after the fact, so a material change will be stated plainly rather than slipped in.
-
§11
Asking about any of this
Questions about privacy go to [email protected], and are answered by the person who wrote the app.
