FoMind
Privacy Policy
In short: the FoMind app does not collect, upload or sell any personal data. Everything you write stays on your device and, if you turn it on, in your own private iCloud database. We have no servers and cannot see your data.
Data we don't collect
The app requires no account and contains no analytics, crash reporting, advertising or third-party SDKs. It sends nothing to us or to anyone else. Its App Store privacy label is “Data Not Collected”.
Where your data is stored
- Your device: predictions, reasoning, outcomes, reviews, lesson progress and settings are stored on your iPhone.
- Your iCloud (optional): if you're signed in to iCloud, data is stored in the private database of your own account through Apple's CloudKit, so it can sync between your devices. Apple holds this data under its privacy policy; only your Apple ID can access it, and we cannot read it.
- Home Screen widget: the widget reads data on the same device through an App Group, without using the network.
What permissions are used for
- Notifications: only to remind you when a prediction is due. Reminders are scheduled locally on your device, never through a server. You can turn them off anytime in Settings.
- Photos: when resolving a prediction you can attach screenshots as evidence. The app uses the system photo picker, so it only receives the images you choose and never accesses your whole library. Chosen images are compressed and saved with that prediction.
Your control
- Export: in Me → Export data you can export all predictions as JSON and CSV.
- Delete: you can delete individual predictions in the app. Deleting the app deletes the data on your device; data in iCloud can be deleted in iPhone Settings → [your name] → iCloud → Manage Storage.
Children
The app does not collect personal data from anyone, including children.
This website
Everything above is about the app. The fomind.net website additionally uses Google Analytics 4 to understand visits (such as which pages are viewed, which country visitors come from and what device they use) so we can improve the site:
- Consent first: on your first visit, a banner at the bottom of the page asks for your choice. Until you accept, the site sets no analytics cookies and Google only receives cookieless, anonymous counts (Google Consent Mode). The same applies if you decline.
- Change anytime: use “Cookie settings” at the bottom of any page. Your choice is saved in your browser's local storage.
- No advertising: advertising features are off, and the data is never used for ads or shared with others. Google processes it under its privacy policy; IP addresses are not stored.
- Hosting: the site is hosted on Cloudflare. To deliver and protect the service, Cloudflare may process access logs (such as IP addresses) under its privacy policy.
Changes
If this policy changes, we'll update this page and the effective date above. If a future version ever needs to collect data, the app will tell you clearly and ask for your consent first.
