Privacy Policy

Introduction

Thank you for using Ripple, our minimalist note-taking app (hereinafter referred to as "the App"). We highly value your privacy and data security. This privacy policy explains how we handle your data and our commitment to protecting user privacy.

Data Processing Principles

Local Data Storage

  • All app data is stored locally on your device by default, and your notes will only be uploaded to your private iCloud account with your explicit authorization
  • Your notes, settings, and other information are entirely under your control and can only be accessed by you or authorized devices

iCloud Data Upload

  • The app supports syncing notes to your iCloud account when you enable this feature
  • iCloud is Apple's private cloud service, and we only use it for data synchronization without accessing or collecting other information from iCloud

No Personal Information Collection

  • Data uploaded to iCloud is protected by Apple's encryption technology
  • Please protect your device and unlock codes to prevent unauthorized access

Third-Party Services
