Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 20, 2026
Tidy Brain is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains how we handle your information in the iOS app, the Android app and on this website. You can use Tidy Brain without creating an account.
1. Information we collect
- Account information (optional, iOS only): if you choose to create an account in the iOS app, we collect your email address and display name through Firebase Authentication. Tidy Brain works fully without an account.
- Chore & household data: the chores you create, rooms, completion history, streaks, repair-token balance, household name, and local profile display names. The app database is stored locally on your device (Apple's SwiftData framework on iOS, the app's private storage on Android). On iOS, rendered app screens can be sent to PostHog as session replay as described below.
- Usage, diagnostics & session replay: to understand how the app is used and to fix confusing or broken flows, the iOS app uses Firebase Analytics, Firebase Crashlytics and PostHog. The Android app uses only PostHog product events, with session replay, person profiles and IP-based location lookup turned off; it does not use Firebase or the device advertising identifier. PostHog session replay can include text and images rendered on screen, including chore names and household profile names. Replays use an app-generated identifier, are not used for advertising, and do not capture network traffic.
- Website analytics: pages on trytidybrain.com use Google Analytics 4 to measure aggregate website usage, such as pages viewed, referrer, device type, and approximate location. We do not enable Google Analytics advertising features or Google signals. See policies.google.com/privacy for how Google handles this data.
- Purchases: subscriptions are sold through the Apple App Store on iOS and Google Play on Android, and managed through RevenueCat, which receives a random app user ID, the products you buy and your subscription status. Apple or Google handles payment; we do not receive your payment card details.
We do not collect health data, location, contacts, photos, or any data beyond what is described here.
2. How we use your information
- Provide and maintain the Tidy Brain service
- Generate your daily task list, streaks, and insights
- Let you organize and assign chores to local household profiles on this device
- Authenticate your account and manage your subscription (if you have one)
- Improve the app and fix crashes
We never use your data for advertising or marketing profiling, and we never sell it.
3. Data retention & deletion
Your chore data lives on your device. Deleting the app removes it. You can also clear all data anytime from Profile → Delete All Data. If you created an account in the iOS app, use Profile → Delete Account to remove the Firebase authentication record and local app data.
4. Children
Tidy Brain is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect their data.
5. Changes
We may update this policy as the app evolves. Material changes will be reflected here with a new date.
