Privacy Policy
In short
Quietdays has no ads and no third-party analytics, tracking or advertising SDKs. You do not need an account. Your events stay on your device and in backups you control: your own iCloud if you turn on iCloud sync (iPhone), or your own Google account through Android’s system backup (Android).
What stays on your device
Your events, tags, settings and the photos you choose for cards are stored in the app on your device, together with a daily backup kept for 30 days. Backup files you export, and automatic backups to a folder you pick, are saved only where you choose; we do not receive them.
On both iPhone and Android, photos are picked with the system photo picker, so Quietdays cannot see your photo library. A copy of the photo you pick is kept inside the app. On iPhone, Quietdays only asks to add photos when you save a wallpaper, card or video. On Android 10 and later, saving needs no permission; Android 9 asks for storage access the first time you save.
Reminders are scheduled on your device as local notifications. On iPhone, data shown on your Apple Watch is sent directly from your iPhone.
iCloud sync (iPhone only)
If iCloud sync is on, your events, settings and photos are stored in your private iCloud database, run by Apple. Event data is stored in encrypted fields. We cannot access your iCloud data. You can turn off iCloud Sync in Settings → Sync & Backup.
Android system backup (Android only)
On Android, the system may back up Quietdays’ events and settings to your own Google account, as it does for other apps. This backup is run and stored by Google; we cannot access it. Photos and the install ID used for anonymous statistics are not included. You can turn it off in your phone’s system settings (usually under Google → Backup).
If you move to a new phone with Android’s direct device-to-device transfer, the photos in the app may be copied as well.
Cloud backup (optional, iPhone only)
Cloud backup is optional and requires Sign in with Apple. We receive a stable account identifier from Apple and an email address, which may be a private relay address if you choose to hide yours. We use the email only to contact you about your account.
Each backup contains your events, settings and photos. We keep up to your 10 most recent backups, along with the device name and app version shown in the backup list. We do not read or analyze your backups.
To delete your account and all cloud backups, open Settings → Cloud Backup → Delete Account. Deletion is immediate and permanent. Data on your phone is not affected.
Anonymous usage statistics
At most once a day, the app sends a small anonymous report: a random install ID created on your device (not linked to your Apple ID, Google account or any account), the app version, the system version (iOS or Android), language, store region (your App Store region on iPhone, or your Google Play country on Android, falling back to your phone’s region setting; never your location), whether Pro is unlocked, a range for how many events you have (such as 4–9), which kinds of widgets you added, and, on iPhone, whether the Apple Watch app is installed.
If you installed Quietdays from an ad on the App Store, the report also says which ad campaign and search keyword it came from (as numeric IDs). We get this from Apple’s privacy-preserving ad attribution: it contains no device identifier, does not track you across apps and needs no tracking permission. We use it only to see whether our ads are worth it.
On Android, the report includes the install source provided by Google Play: whether you found Quietdays in the store yourself, came from one of our ad campaigns, or from a tagged link (such as the download button on our website). It contains no device identifier and needs no permission; we use it only to see whether our promotion is worth it.
The report also counts how many times each feature was used since the previous report (for example, sharing an image and which app it was shared to, opening the calendar, or which Pro templates you previewed before buying) and how many times something went wrong (for example, a backup that could not be saved or a download that did not finish). On iPhone this includes how many crash, freeze or similar diagnostic reports the system collected for the app. These are only numbers: no event content, photos, file names or error details, and the diagnostic reports themselves are never sent.
The report also gives an overview of how things look at that moment: how many events use each template and color palette, how many use your own photo, how card sizes, image positions and counting units are spread, and which app font, theme and home layout you use. It contains only our own template and palette IDs and counts: no event titles, photos or anything you wrote. We use it to decide which styles to make more of.
It never includes the names, dates or contents of your events. We use it only to count how Quietdays is used and what to improve. You can turn it off with Share Anonymous Usage Stats in Settings.
Feedback
When you send feedback from the app, we receive what you enter: the type of issue, your description, and the screenshot and email address if you choose to add them. The app also attaches the app version, system version, device model, language, store region, whether Pro is unlocked and the random install ID (never your event content). We use this only to handle your feedback: your email only to reply to you, and the screenshot only to understand the issue. Feedback is stored on the same regional servers described under “Where data is stored” and kept for at most 2 years after it is handled; to have it deleted, send another feedback message or email us.
Our replies and any details or screenshots you add later are stored together with that feedback; the app uses the random install ID to fetch your own feedback and our replies so you can see them under “Feedback” — no account needed.
Feedback and follow-ups can include up to 5 images and 1 video (up to 60 seconds) that you choose from your photo library; they are likewise used only to understand the issue, and are stored and deleted together with that feedback.
Content downloads
The app may download new styles, illustrations and fonts from our content server. Like most servers, it keeps short-lived access logs that include IP addresses, used only for security and troubleshooting.
Our website
This website (quietdays.app and quietdays.zhilc.com) counts visits with Umami, an open-source analytics tool we run on our own server (not a third-party service). It sets no cookies and does not store your IP address; it records only the page, the referring site, your country and device type, so we know whether the site is useful.
It also counts a few actions on the page, such as making a card, saving an image or opening the daily gift — only how many times, never what you typed or the photo you chose (a photo you add to a card stays in your browser and is not uploaded). The site remembers a few things in your browser’s local storage, such as today’s gift and whether music is on; these stay on your device.
Purchases
Quietdays Pro is optional. Payment is handled entirely by Apple on iPhone and by Google Play on Android, and verified on your device. We never see your payment details.
Where data is stored
If you got Quietdays from the App Store in mainland China, your account, cloud backups and anonymous statistics are stored on servers we operate on Alibaba Cloud in mainland China. For everyone else (including all Android users on Google Play), they are stored on servers we operate on Alibaba Cloud in the United Kingdom (London). Your account and cloud backups stay in the region where you signed in.
Outside mainland China, downloadable content such as new styles and fonts is delivered through Cloudflare; in mainland China it comes directly from our servers. All connections are encrypted.
Sharing
We do not sell your data, share it with advertisers, or use it for advertising.
Children
Quietdays is suitable for all ages and does not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes
If we change what we collect, we will update this page and the date above.
