Privacy Policy
Effective Date: June 29, 2026
At Shortly, we believe your thoughts and tasks belong to you, and only you. This Privacy Policy outlines how your information is handled within our application.
Data Summary: We do not collect, store, or transmit your personal app data to any external servers. Everything happens locally on your device.
1. Data Storage & Privacy
- 100% Local Storage: All tasks, thoughts, priority markers, and timers created within Shortly are stored directly on your physical device using secure local storage interfaces.
- No Cloud Syncing: We do not operate external cloud servers or databases to back up or sync your personal app content.
- Auto-Deletion: True to the app's core design, your personal app data automatically vanishes from your device's local memory after 24 hours.
2. Analytics & Performance Tracking
To help us understand how the app performs and improve your user experience, we utilize PostHog Analytics.
- This tool tracks completely anonymous interaction patterns (such as tapping an interface button or swiping to complete a task).
- It never collects, views, or transmits the actual text, titles, or contents of your tasks and thoughts.
3. Device Permissions
- Local Notifications: Shortly requests permission to send notifications to your device to alert you when a task has 6 hours remaining. These notifications are scheduled and triggered entirely locally by your device's operating system, not by a remote cloud server.
4. Changes to This Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected directly on this page with an updated effective date.
