At Linden, your privacy is not a feature; it is our core foundation. This policy outlines how we handle your data with absolute transparency.

1. Data Ownership & Encryption

• Your Data is Yours: We do not own, view, or have access to your journal entries, photos, or voice recordings.
• iCloud Storage: All your data is stored in your personal Apple iCloud Private Database. It is encrypted end-to-end by Apple, and only you can access it via your Apple ID.
• No Third-Party Servers: We do not use external servers to store your personal memories.

2. Biometric Security

• Local Authentication: When you enable FaceID or TouchID, the authentication process happens entirely on your device’s Secure Enclave.
• Zero Access: Linden never sees or stores your biometric data.

3. Information Collection

• Personal Information: We do not require an account, email address, or phone number to use the app.
• Usage Data: We may collect anonymous, non-identifiable telemetry (such as crash reports) to improve app performance. This never includes the content of your entries.

4. Subscriptions & Payments

• Apple Media Services: All premium subscriptions are processed securely through Apple App Store In-App Purchases. We do not collect or store your credit card or billing information.

5. Your Rights

• You have full control over your data. You can export or delete your entire forest directly through the app or your iCloud settings at any time.
