Privacy Policy

Effective date: March 4, 2026  ·  Last updated: March 4, 2026

Short version: Nudge stores your data locally on your device. If you use the AI feature, your task description is sent to Google's Gemini API to generate action steps — no name, email, or account is ever required. We collect nothing else, sell nothing, and track nothing.

01 Who We Are

Nudge is an iOS application developed by Benjamin Belloeil ("we", "us", "our"). It is designed to help users overcome procrastination through AI-generated micro-steps.

02 What Data We Collect

Nudge does not require you to create an account. We collect only the minimum necessary for the app to function.

03 AI Features & Third‑Party Services

When you generate a Nudge using the AI feature, your task description, mood, and energy level are sent to Google's Gemini API to produce personalised action steps. No name, email, device identifier, or location is included in these requests.

Google Gemini API
Your task text is transmitted to Google's servers solely to generate your action plan. Google's use of this data is governed by the Google Privacy Policy and the Gemini API Terms of Service. We do not store or log the content of API requests.

If you are using a device with Apple Intelligence, Nudge may use on-device AI as a fallback. In that case, no data leaves your device.

If AI is unavailable, you can create steps manually — no data is sent anywhere.

04 iCloud Sync

If iCloud is enabled on your device, your Nudge history file may be synced to your personal iCloud account via Apple's CloudKit. This data is governed by Apple's Privacy Policy. We cannot access your iCloud data.

05 Notifications

If you enable notifications, Nudge schedules local reminder notifications on your device. These are generated entirely on-device and do not involve any server. You can disable them at any time in the app Settings or in iOS Settings.

06 Analytics & Advertising

Nudge contains no third-party analytics SDKs, no advertising networks, and no crash reporting services beyond what Apple provides by default through the App Store (opt-in). We do not build profiles, sell data, or share data with any third party for marketing purposes.

07 Children's Privacy

Nudge is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will delete it.

08 Data Retention & Deletion

All your data lives on your device. You can delete all Nudge history at any time via Settings → Clear All Data inside the app. Uninstalling the app removes all locally stored data. iCloud copies can be deleted through your iCloud account settings.

09 Your Rights

Because we do not maintain a server-side database of your personal data, there is nothing for us to provide, correct, or delete on our end. All data is under your direct control on your device. For any questions, contact us at the address in Section 1.

10 Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The updated version will be posted at this URL with a revised effective date. Continued use of the app after changes constitutes acceptance of the new policy.
