Privacy

What we keep, and what we don't.

Last updated June 16, 2026

almost ready is built and operated by Claudia Ondecker, an individual developer based in New Jersey, United States ("we" / "us"). This policy explains what data the almost ready iOS app collects, why, where it lives, and how to remove it.

What we collect

Only what you give us:

Your email address, used to sign you in and let you recover your account. If you sign in with Apple and choose "Hide My Email," we receive Apple's private relay address instead.
Your first name, if you provide one during sign-up, so the app can greet you by name. This is optional — leave it blank if you prefer.
Your schedule data — the tasks you add, when you start and finish them, the templates and saved tasks you build, the Ready-by times and moments you set, and any notes you write inside the app.

We don't collect your contacts, location, photos, calendar, microphone, camera, or anything outside the app.

Where it lives

Your data is stored on Supabase, a managed Postgres host. It's scoped to your account — no one else can read your tasks. We don't copy it to other services, we don't share it with advertisers, and we don't sell it. Ever.

Internally, your account is identified by a unique ID generated by Supabase. It links your tasks to your account but isn't personally identifying on its own.

Subscription billing is handled by Apple and a payment processor called RevenueCat, which tells us only whether your subscription is active — not your card details, name, or billing address.

Tracking and analytics

We don't track you across apps or websites. We don't use the iOS advertising identifier (IDFA), Facebook SDK, Google Analytics, or any third-party analytics that follow you elsewhere.

We do use two services that help us keep the app running:

Sentry for crash reports, error logging, and performance traces — for example, how long a screen took to render. Each report is tied to your user ID so we can fix issues you specifically hit. Task names, notes, and personal content are not sent.
PostHog for product analytics — which screens you visit, which buttons you tap, how often you complete a task. Each event is tied to your user ID and a PostHog-assigned device ID so we can tell repeat sessions apart. Task names, notes, and personal content are not sent.

Neither service uses this data for advertising. We use it only to fix bugs and understand which features matter.

The only other network calls the app makes are to Supabase (to sync your own data) and to Apple (for push notifications you've opted into).

Notifications

If you turn on notifications, the app schedules reminders locally on your device. Apple sees the timing, but the message contents stay on your phone. You can turn this off in iOS Settings or in the Profile tab.

For Live Activities (the persistent card on your Lock Screen during a getting-ready session), we send minimal state to Apple's Push Notification service so the card stays in sync. This payload contains your current task name and timing — no email, no personal identifiers beyond a per-session token Apple controls.

When you share

almost ready has two share features. Both are opt-in — nothing leaves your phone unless you tap a share button.

Share status creates a public web link that shows your first name and your getting-ready pace in real time. Anyone with the link can see it. Task names are hidden by default; you can flip a toggle to include them. The link expires automatically within 24 hours, or instantly when you tap "Stop sharing."
Share images (the cream-and-copper cards you can post from the departure moment, habit tracker, or streak) include your task names so the recap reads like a real summary. Review the image before you share it.

Deleting your account

You can delete your account from Profile → "Delete my account." That removes your tasks, completions, templates, saved steps, preferences, and your sign-in record. It is permanent and immediate.

Backups held by Supabase for disaster recovery are rotated within 30 days, after which no copy of your data remains.

Your rights

If you're in the EU, UK, California, or another jurisdiction with data-protection laws, you have rights to access, correct, export, or delete your data. The in-app "Delete my account" flow covers most of these. For anything else, email us and we'll do it by hand.

Children

almost ready is not directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect data from them. If you believe a child has created an account, email us and we'll remove it.

Changes to this policy

If we change anything material here, we'll update the "Last updated" date above and notify active users in-app. For minor wording fixes, we just update the date.
