1. About this policy
This Privacy Policy explains how the iOS app MyRoutine – Habit Tracker (shown as “Rutinim” on devices set to Turkish; App Store ID 6753360969), including its widgets, Siri and Shortcuts actions and notifications (together, the “App”), handles information. It also covers this website.
The App is developed and published by Habibe Atik (“we”, “us”, “our”). This policy applies to version 2.0 of the App and later.
Earlier versions. Versions of the App before 2.0 (1.x) displayed ads provided by Google AdMob. If you still use one of those versions, Google may collect and process information such as device identifiers (including the advertising identifier, where you allowed tracking), IP address, general device information and ad interactions in order to show and measure ads, as described in Google’s Privacy Policy. We never received your habit data. Version 2.0 and later contain no advertising and no third-party services; updating removes them.
2. The short version
We do not collect, receive, store, sell or share any personal data through the App. The App has no account or sign-in, and we do not operate any servers for it. It contains no advertising, no analytics, no tracking and no third-party software development kits (SDKs). It does not sync your data to the cloud.
Everything you enter stays on your device and is processed there. This matches the “Data Not Collected” label on the App’s App Store page.
3. Information we do not collect
The App does not collect, and we never receive:
- your name, email address, phone number or any account details;
- your habits, check-ins, counts, notes, streaks, badges or any other content you enter;
- your location, contacts, photos, camera, microphone or calendar data;
- health or fitness data (the App does not use Apple Health);
- device identifiers or the advertising identifier, and the App does not ask to track you;
- usage analytics, behavioural profiles or browsing history.
Because we do not collect personal data, we do not sell it, rent it, share it for advertising, or use it for profiling or automated decision-making.
4. Information stored on your device
To work, the App stores what you create locally on your device, using Apple’s on-device storage in the App’s private storage area. This includes your habits (names, icons, colours, goals and schedules), check-ins and counts, notes, streak protections, badges, reminder times, your Motivacat settings (such as its name, rooms, bowls and treats) and your preferences.
So that your Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets and Siri can show your progress, the App also keeps a small summary (for example, today’s habits, their progress and recent completion history) in a shared container on the same device. This summary also never leaves your device.
Motivacat’s mood, fullness and messages are calculated on your device from your check-ins. Nothing about this is sent to us.
The App itself does not use iCloud or any other cloud sync. If you back up your iPhone with iCloud Backup or to a computer, iOS may include the App’s data in that device backup. Those backups are made and controlled by Apple and by you under your Apple Account; we have no access to them.
5. Notifications
If you allow notifications, the App schedules local notifications on your device: your habit reminders and, depending on your settings, streak alerts, a weekly recap and Motivacat’s evening check-in. They are scheduled and delivered by iOS on your device. No push server is involved and nothing is sent to us.
Actions you take from a notification, such as “Done”, “+1” or “Remind Me in 1 Hour”, are processed on your device. Notifications are optional. You can allow or turn them off at any time in iOS Settings › Notifications › MyRoutine.
6. Widgets, Siri and Shortcuts
Widgets read the on-device summary described above. When you use Siri or the Shortcuts app with MyRoutine, your request is handled by Apple under Apple’s own privacy policy, and the App answers or updates a habit using the data on your device. We do not receive your requests or the answers.
8. Purchases
Premium subscriptions and the Lifetime purchase are processed entirely by Apple through the App Store. We never receive your name, email address, Apple Account details or payment card information. To unlock Premium, the App receives from Apple the signed transaction information needed to confirm what you bought and whether it is active. This check happens on your device.
Apple provides developers with sales and financial reports, which are aggregated and do not identify you to us. The App may also display Apple’s standard rating prompt, which is handled by Apple. Apple’s privacy policy applies to purchases, ratings and your Apple Account.
9. Crash reports and statistics from Apple
The App does not collect crash or diagnostic data itself. If you have chosen to share analytics with app developers (iOS Settings › Privacy & Security › Analytics & Improvements), Apple may share crash reports and similar diagnostic information with us. Apple may also show us aggregated statistics such as the number of downloads. This information is controlled by Apple and by your settings, and it does not identify you to us. We use it only to find and fix problems.
10. When you contact us
If you email us at appsroutine@gmail.com, we receive your email address, your name if it is part of your email, your message and anything you choose to attach (for example, a screenshot or a backup file). We use this information only to reply to you and help with your request. We do not use it for marketing and we do not share it, except where required by law.
Our email is provided by Google (Gmail), which may process messages on servers in other countries under its own terms. We keep messages only as long as reasonably necessary to help you and for our records. Please do not send sensitive information, such as health details, by email.
11. This website
This website is hosted on GitHub Pages, a service of GitHub, Inc. When you visit, GitHub may process technical information such as your IP address in its server logs to operate and secure the service, under GitHub’s own privacy statement. We do not receive this information.
The website uses no cookies, no analytics, no advertising and no third-party fonts or scripts. If you choose a language, your browser may remember that choice locally on your device; it is never sent to us.
12. Your choices and control
You stay in control of your data at all times:
- Export: Settings › Your Data › Export Backup (JSON) or Export Spreadsheet (CSV).
- Delete everything: Settings › Your Data › Delete All Data permanently deletes all habits, history and badges from the App.
- Delete a habit: in Habits, swipe a habit and choose Delete.
- Delete the App: removes the App and the data it stores on your device. Device backups you made are not affected.
- Notifications and Siri: change permissions anytime in iOS Settings.
- Motivacat: turn it off anytime in Settings › Motivacat.
Because no copy of your data exists anywhere else, deleted data cannot be recovered by us. Export a backup first if you might want it later.
13. Your privacy rights
Depending on where you live (for example, in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, Türkiye, Switzerland, Brazil, Japan or certain US states), you may have rights over your personal data, such as the right to access, correct, delete or receive a copy of it, to object to or restrict its processing, to withdraw consent, and to complain to a data protection authority.
Because we do not collect personal data through the App, there is generally nothing for us to access, correct or delete. Your data stays on your device, under your control, and you can export or delete it at any time as described above. If you have emailed us, you can ask us what we hold and ask us to delete your messages by writing to appsroutine@gmail.com. We will respond within the time required by applicable law.
We do not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising, and we do not engage in profiling.
14. Children
The App is intended for a general audience. It is not designed for children under the age required by local law to use such services without parental consent (for example, under 13 in the United States). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children; in fact, the App does not collect personal information from anyone. If you believe a child has sent us personal information by email, please contact us and we will delete it.
15. International users
The App works the same way in every country: your data stays on your device and is not transferred to us. The only exception is email you choose to send us, which our email provider may process in other countries, including the United States, under its own safeguards.
16. Security
Your data is protected by the security of your device, including the iOS app sandbox and data protection, which encrypts data when your device is locked with a passcode. We recommend using a passcode, keeping iOS up to date and storing exported backup files somewhere safe, because exported files are not password-protected by the App. No method of storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
17. Data retention
Data in the App stays on your device until you delete it or delete the App. Emails you send us are kept only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described above.
18. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time, for example if the App changes or the law requires it. The “Last updated” date at the top shows the latest version. If we ever add a feature that would collect personal data (such as cloud sync), we will update this policy before the feature becomes available and, where required, ask for your consent.
