ANCHORED VINES
Privacy Policy
Effective Date: February 28, 2026
Last Updated: February 28, 2026
Plain English Summary: Anchored Vines does not collect, store, or sell your personal data. The app works entirely on your device. We don't know who you are, and we like it that way.
1. Introduction
Welcome to Anchored Vines ("the App"), developed and operated by Anchored Vines Consulting ("we", "us", or "our"), based in Duvall, Washington, USA.
This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information in connection with your use of the Anchored Vines iOS application. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being fully transparent about our practices.
By downloading or using the App, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the App.
2. Information We Collect
2a. Information We Do NOT Collect
Anchored Vines is designed to function entirely on your device without collecting personal information. We do not collect:
▸ Your name, email address, or contact information
▸ Your location or GPS data
▸ Device identifiers or advertising IDs
▸ Usage analytics or behavioral tracking data
▸ Financial or payment information
▸ Health or biometric data
▸ Contacts, photos, camera, or microphone data
▸ Any personally identifiable information of any kind
2b. Information Stored Locally on Your Device
The App may store the following data locally on your device only, which we cannot access:
▸ Your in-app preferences and settings
▸ Any content you create within the App (such as saved favorites or notes, if applicable)
This data never leaves your device and is deleted if you uninstall the App.
2c. Apple App Store Data
When you download the App through the Apple App Store, Apple may collect certain data pursuant to their own Privacy Policy. We do not control and are not responsible for Apple's data practices. Please review Apple's Privacy Policy at apple.com/privacy for details.
3. How We Use Information
Because we do not collect personal information, we have no personal data to use, share, sell, or disclose.
We may review aggregated, anonymous App Store analytics provided by Apple (such as total download counts or crash reports) solely for the purpose of improving the App. This data does not identify individual users.
4. Third-Party Services
4a. No Third-Party Advertising
Anchored Vines does not display advertisements. We do not integrate any advertising SDKs or ad networks into the App.
4b. No Third-Party Analytics
We do not use third-party analytics services such as Google Analytics, Firebase, Mixpanel, or similar tools within the App.
4c. Apple Services
The App is distributed via Apple's App Store and operates on Apple's iOS platform. Apple's standard system services (such as crash reporting if you have enabled this in your iPhone settings) may apply. These are governed by Apple's Privacy Policy and are outside our control.
5. Data Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell, trade, rent, or otherwise share any personal information because we do not collect any. We will never sell your data to third parties.
In the unlikely event we are required by law to disclose information, we would comply with applicable legal obligations — however, since we hold no personal data, there is nothing to disclose.
6. Children's Privacy
The App is suitable for all ages and does not collect personal information from anyone, including children under the age of 13. We comply with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and Apple's guidelines for apps used by children.
Parents and guardians can use this App with confidence that no personal information about their children is being collected.
7. Data Security
Because we do not collect or store personal data on our servers, the risk of a data breach involving your personal information is eliminated at the source.
Data stored locally on your device (preferences, settings) is protected by your device's built-in security features, including passcode protection and encryption. We encourage you to use a strong passcode and keep your iOS software up to date.
8. Your Privacy Rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights under applicable privacy laws including:
▸ The right to know what personal data is collected about you
▸ The right to delete your personal data
▸ The right to opt out of the sale of personal data
▸ The right to non-discrimination for exercising your privacy rights
Since we collect no personal data, exercising these rights is straightforward: there is nothing to access, correct, or delete on our end. To remove all locally stored App data, simply uninstall the App from your device.
California Residents (CCPA)
If you are a California resident, you have rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). We do not sell personal information. We do not collect personal information as defined under CCPA. No opt-out is necessary.
European Residents (GDPR)
If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), you have rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). We do not process personal data as defined under GDPR. Our legal basis for operating the App does not require processing personal information. We do not transfer data outside your device.
9. Data Retention
We retain no personal data because we collect none. Data stored locally on your device persists until you uninstall the App or clear the App's data through your device settings.
10. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the App, applicable law, or our practices. When we do, we will:
▸ Update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this document
▸ Post the updated policy at anchoredvines.com/privacy
▸ Where required by law, notify you through the App or App Store
We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Continued use of the App after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
