1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and share your information when you use the My Tempus mobile application (the "App"), available on the Apple App Store.
We are committed to protecting your privacy and data security. Our App is designed with a privacy-first approach: the vast majority of your data is stored locally on your device, and we do not collect, sell, or share your personal identifiable information with third parties for advertising or marketing purposes.
By downloading or using the App, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with this policy, please do not use the App.
The App works fully without any internet connection. The only situation in which any of your content leaves your device is if you choose to enable the optional AI Assistant with your own third-party API key — see Section 2.4 below.
2. Information We Collect & How We Use It
We only collect the minimal information necessary for the App to function, with a clear distinction between data stored locally on your device and limited data processed through third-party services.
2.1 Information Stored Locally on Your Device
All core user data is stored exclusively on your personal device using Apple's native Core Data framework, and we never transmit or store this data on our servers:
- Companion profiles: name, type, birth date, lifespan, and profile photo you upload
- Moments and media: mood selections, text content, photos, videos, location tags, and custom tags
- Event timers: titles, dates, icons, and linked companions
- Custom wallpaper preferences, template selections, and saved wallpaper designs
- App settings and user preferences
You have full control over this local data: you can view, edit, or delete it at any time within the App. Uninstalling the App will permanently delete all locally stored data from your device.
2.2 In-App Purchase Information
The App uses Apple's official StoreKit framework for in-app purchases, including subscriptions and lifetime purchases.
- We do not collect or store any of your payment information (credit card details, billing address, Apple ID credentials). All payment processing is handled exclusively by Apple, and is subject to Apple's own Privacy Policy: https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/en-us/
- We only receive non-identifiable transaction data from Apple to verify your purchase status, unlock Pro features, and restore your purchases if you reinstall the App or switch devices. This data is not linked to your personal identity.
2.3 Device Permissions We Request
We only request system permissions when you actively use the corresponding feature, with a clear, disclosed purpose:
- Photo Library Access: Requested only when you upload a companion profile photo, attach media to a moment, or save a generated wallpaper to your device. You can deny this permission, though it will limit these features.
- Camera Access: Requested only when you take a photo for a companion profile or a moment.
- Location Access: Requested only when you choose to tag a moment with your current location. We do not track your location in the background.
We never request access to your microphone, contacts, or other unrelated device data.
2.4 Optional AI Assistant (Bring Your Own Key)
The App includes an optional AI Assistant that can turn a sentence you type into a structured moment, event, or companion, and can write an optional recap summary. This feature is turned off by default and is never used unless you deliberately enable it by entering your own API key.
- You bring your own key. To use the AI Assistant, you obtain an API key from a third-party AI provider of your choice and enter it in Settings. Your key is stored securely in the iOS Keychain on your device and is never sent to us.
- No server of ours is involved. When you use an AI action, the specific text you submit for that action (for example, the sentence you type to create a moment) is sent directly from your device to the AI provider you selected, authenticated with your own key. We operate no server, do not proxy these requests, and never receive, store, or have access to the text you submit or the results.
- What is sent. Only the text of the specific action you trigger is transmitted. The AI Assistant does not upload your photos, videos, moment history, location history, or other stored data.
- The provider's terms govern that data. The handling of text you submit is governed by the privacy policy and terms of the AI provider you choose. You should review your provider's policy before enabling the feature. Supported providers include Anthropic (Claude), OpenAI, DeepSeek, Google (Gemini), Moonshot (Kimi), Alibaba (Qwen), and Mistral AI.
- Fully optional and reversible. You can delete your key at any time in Settings to disable the feature; all core features of the App continue to work with no AI and no network connection.
The App may also occasionally fetch a small public list of available AI model names from our support site to keep the model picker current. This request contains no personal data.
3. Third-Party Services
The App only uses the following third-party services, which have their own privacy policies governing their handling of data:
- Apple App Store & StoreKit (for downloads and in-app purchases): https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/en-us/
- AI providers you choose to connect (optional). Only if you enable the AI Assistant with your own API key (see Section 2.4), the text of each AI action is sent directly to the provider you selected. Each provider is governed by its own privacy policy — for example: Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, DeepSeek, Moonshot (Kimi), Alibaba (Qwen), and Mistral AI. We do not receive or store any of this data.
We do not integrate any third-party analytics, tracking, or advertising SDKs in the App. We do not track your activity across other apps or websites.
4. Your Privacy Rights
Depending on your location, you have the following rights under applicable data protection laws (including GDPR for EU users and CCPA for California users):
- Right to Access: You can access all data stored locally on your device directly within the App.
- Right to Deletion: You can delete any or all of your local data at any time by deleting content or uninstalling the App.
- Right to Correct: You can edit your profiles and app settings directly within the App.
- Right to Opt Out: We do not sell your personal information to third parties, ever. You can opt out of all non-essential data processing by disabling permissions in your device settings.
- Right to Withdraw Consent: You can withdraw any consent you have provided to this policy by uninstalling the App.
To exercise any of these rights, or to ask questions about this policy, contact us at the email address listed at the bottom of this document. We will respond to all valid requests within 30 business days.
5. Children's Privacy
The App is not intended for use by children under the age of 13 (16 for EU users). We do not knowingly collect or solicit personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that we have received personal information from a child under 13, we will delete it immediately.
6. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our functionality or legal requirements. We will notify you of material changes by updating the "Effective Date" at the top of this policy, and by posting a notice within the App. Your continued use of the App after the updated policy takes effect constitutes your acceptance of the changes.
