Privacy, without the small-print fog.

What The Vault stores

The Vault can store the cards, notes, zone names, completion notes, reminders and attachments that you choose to add. Attachments can include photographs, documents, audio recordings and links.

Where your Vault is kept

Your content is stored on your Apple device. If iCloud is available for The Vault, Apple CloudKit stores a copy in your private iCloud database so it can sync between devices signed in to the same Apple Account.

The Vault's developer does not operate a server for this content and cannot browse, retrieve or read your private iCloud Vault.

Photos, camera, microphone and files

The Vault asks for access only when you choose a related action, such as taking a photograph or recording a voice note. A photo or file you select becomes part of the card you chose to create. The app does not scan your photo library, microphone or files in the background.

Sharing into The Vault

When you share something from another app, Apple's share extension passes the item into The Vault using a private area shared only by the app and its extension. Temporary imported files are removed after the import is completed.

Reminders

Reminder notifications are scheduled by each Apple device. You control notification permission in the device's Settings. The developer does not receive your reminder text or notification history.

Accounts, analytics and advertising

The Vault has no separate sign-in, no advertising, no third-party tracking and no developer-operated analytics service. Apple may process information needed to provide iCloud and distribute the app under Apple's own terms and privacy policy.

Deleting your information

You can archive and permanently delete cards from within The Vault. Changes are passed to iCloud and your other devices. You can also manage app data and iCloud through your Apple device settings. Because we cannot access your private iCloud database, we cannot delete that content on your behalf.
