Keepsake Privacy Policy

Last updated November 9, 2026

Keepsake is a personal photo journal. It's built so that your memories stay yours. I don't run any servers for Keepsake, and I can't see your photos, notes or anything else you put in it.

What Keepsake stores

Your photos, notes, moods, places, decorations and settings are saved on your iPhone. If iCloud is on, they also sync through your own private iCloud account so they show up on your other devices. Apple handles that storage under its own privacy policy. I have no access to it.

What Keepsake does not do

• No accounts or sign-in

• No ads

• No analytics, tracking or third-party SDKs

• No selling or sharing of your data with anyone

Permissions

• Photos: used only to choose a photo for a day, and to save recap videos when you ask.

• Camera and microphone: used only when you take a photo or Live Photo in Keepsake.

• Location: used only to label a day with where it was taken and to show your map. Places are saved in your journal and never sent to me.

• Apple Music: used only to search for a song you want to attach to a day.

• Notifications: used only for the optional daily reminder.

• Face ID: used only to unlock Keepsake if you turn the lock on. Keepsake never sees your face data.

Weather and song lookups go through Apple's WeatherKit and MusicKit services. Keepsake doesn't attach your identity to these requests.

Tips

Optional tips are handled entirely by Apple through the App Store. I never see your payment details.

Deleting your data

You can delete any day inside the app. Deleting Keepsake removes its data from your iPhone. To remove the iCloud copy, go to Settings → [your name] → iCloud → Manage Account Storage → Keepsake.

Children

Keepsake doesn't knowingly collect any information from anyone, including children.

Changes

If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new date.
