ClearKeep Privacy Policy

1. What data we collect

ClearKeep stores the following data that you create inside the app:

• Rooms and chores — names, types, and cleaning frequencies you configure
• Pet profiles — pet type (rabbit, cat, dog), name, and hygiene routine settings
• Garden zones and vehicles — names, types, task templates, and upkeep routines you configure
• Cleaning sessions — start time, end time, tasks completed, and session type
• Task details — titles, notes, durations, allowed days, assignments, and completion history
• Household setup — display name you choose, room assignments, and sharing preferences
• Local diagnostics — recent anonymous operational events, such as app launch or onboarding completion, kept on your device only and never transmitted to SummitNinety or any third party
• Anonymous usage counts — from version 1.3.1, new installs send a few anonymous markers when key steps first happen: setup finished, first task done, the Plus screen opened, a purchase started or completed, and a return after a week. Each marker holds only the step name, the day and the app version, with no household content or names. Markers are stored in ClearKeep's own CloudKit public database, operated by Apple, and readable only by SummitNinety. Like every CloudKit record, each one also carries Apple's system metadata, including opaque, app-specific references to the iCloud account and device that saved it; these can't be turned into your name or email, and SummitNinety does not use or analyse them. You can turn this off in ClearKeep → Settings → Share anonymous usage counts.

What we do not collect

We do not collect:

• Names, email addresses, or any account credentials
• Location data
• Advertising identifiers (IDFA or equivalent)
• Health or medical data
• Contacts or address book
• Camera or photo library access
• Local diagnostics or crash reports sent to SummitNinety or third parties
• Any usage data beyond the anonymous usage counts described above

2. How data is stored

On-device. All rooms, chores, pets, gardens, vehicles, sessions, task notes, and household setup are stored locally on your iPhone or iPad using Apple's Core Data framework. ClearKeep also writes a small widget snapshot to its private App Group container so iOS widgets and Live Activities can show the next chores, pet status, and household progress. iCloud. If you are signed into iCloud and have iCloud Drive enabled, your data syncs to your personal iCloud account using Apple's CloudKit framework. Only you (and Apple, per their iCloud terms: apple.com/legal/internet-services/icloud/) can access this data. SummitNinety has no access to your iCloud account. UK iCloud note. In 2025 Apple removed Advanced Data Protection for UK iCloud accounts. iCloud-stored ClearKeep data may be accessible to Apple under UK law. ClearKeep itself has no access to that data under any circumstances. We operate no custom backend servers of our own. Apart from the anonymous usage counts above, which go to ClearKeep's CloudKit public database operated by Apple, no ClearKeep data is transmitted to SummitNinety.

3. Household sharing

ClearKeep's household sharing feature uses Apple's native CloudKit sharing (CKShare). When you share a household, the data is stored and transported using Apple's iCloud infrastructure. SummitNinety cannot read, access, or process shared household data at any point.

4. Notifications

ClearKeep can send local notifications for cleaning reminders and session prompts. All notifications are scheduled entirely on your device. No notification content is sent to any server. You can enable or disable notifications in ClearKeep → Settings or in iOS Settings → ClearKeep. Notifications are optional and are not required for the app to function.

5. In-app purchases

ClearKeep Plus subscriptions are processed entirely by Apple via the App Store using StoreKit. ClearKeep does not receive or store your payment card details, billing address, or any other payment information. Please see Apple's privacy policy at apple.com/legal/privacy/ for information on how Apple handles payment data. Purchases are tied to your Apple ID — no ClearKeep account is required.

6. Third-party SDKs and analytics

ClearKeep contains no third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking SDKs. There are no integrations with Facebook, Google, or any similar advertising or analytics services. The anonymous usage counts use Apple's CloudKit only.

7. Data export and deletion

You can manage your data at any time:

• Export — export all your ClearKeep data as a JSON backup from Settings → Data → Export Backup
• Restore — restore data from a previously exported backup from Settings → Data → Restore Backup
• Full reset — permanently delete all local ClearKeep records from Settings → Data → Reset All Data

8. App Store privacy nutrition label

ClearKeep's intended App Store privacy label is:

• Data Not Linked to You: Usage Data (Product Interaction), used for analytics, not used for tracking. These are the anonymous usage counts described in section 1.
• Local diagnostics and widget snapshots are processed only on the device and are not transmitted off-device to SummitNinety or third-party partners
• Data stored in iCloud is handled by Apple under the user's Apple ID and Apple's iCloud terms; SummitNinety cannot access it

9. Your rights

Because your data lives on your device and in your personal iCloud account, you control it directly. You can access, export, or delete your data at any time using the tools described in section 7. For any privacy requests or questions, contact us at support@summitninety.com.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy when the app is updated or when legal requirements change. Material changes will be noted in the app release notes. Continued use of the app after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
