UPLINKPrivacy Policy
The short version
UPLINK collects nothing. There is no account, no sign-up, no analytics, no advertising, no tracking, and no server of ours. Your data lives on your devices and — for sync — in your own private iCloud, which we cannot access.
Where your data lives
Everything you create in UPLINK — categories, decks, cards, review history, and settings — is stored locally on your device. If your device is signed into iCloud, that data also syncs through your private iCloud database (Apple's CloudKit) so your iPhone and iPad stay in step. That database belongs to your Apple Account: only your devices can read it, Apple hosts it under Apple's privacy terms, and UPLINK's developer has no ability to access, read, or share it — we operate no server and hold no keys. Your data is also included in your normal device backups, and is deleted from a device when you delete the app (your iCloud copy remains for your other devices until removed via iOS Settings → iCloud).
Notifications
UPLINK's quiz notifications are local notifications, generated and scheduled entirely on your device. No push server is involved, and notification content never leaves your phone.
CSV export
Exporting your cards creates a file only when you choose to, and it goes only where you send it through the iOS share sheet. UPLINK itself never uploads it.
Purchases
The one-time unlock is processed entirely by Apple through the App Store. UPLINK never sees your payment information.
Third parties
UPLINK contains no third-party SDKs and no analytics frameworks. Its only network communication is with Apple: the App Store, to check and process the unlock purchase, and iCloud, to sync your data between your own devices.
Changes
If a future version of UPLINK ever changes any of the above, this policy will be updated here before that version ships, with the effective date revised.
