ForwardLog™ Privacy Policy

Effective November 12, 2026

In short: what you write in ForwardLog stays on your devices and in your own iCloud account, and we have no access to it. The app has no accounts, ads, analytics or tracking. We only receive personal information if you email us, and we use it only to reply to you.

Who we are

ForwardLog is made by an independent developer in Canada ("we" or "us"). Our Privacy Officer is responsible for how we handle personal information and answers questions about this policy: support@forwardlog.app (subject "Privacy").

What you write in the app

Your to-dos, notes, due dates, links and settings are stored on your device. If iCloud is on, they're also stored in your own iCloud account so they sync to your other devices. That storage is provided to you by Apple under Apple's privacy policy; it is private to your Apple Account, and we have no access to it. We don't collect this information.

To decide when to ask for an App Store rating, the app counts completed to-dos and notes when you first used it. This stays on your device.

What we don't do

The app has no accounts, advertising, analytics, crash reporting or other third-party code. It doesn't track you, and we don't sell or rent personal information.

When you email us

If you write to us, including through the app's Report a Problem or Suggest a Feature, we receive your email address, your message and anything you attach. Emails from the app also include the app version, the type of device (for example "iPhone") and the system version; you see this before sending. By sending the email, you agree to us using it to reply to you and to fix problems or improve ForwardLog. We don't use it for anything else and don't share it, except where the law requires.

We keep emails only as long as needed for these purposes, and no longer than two years after our last exchange, then delete them. You can ask us to delete them sooner.

Our email is hosted by Apple (iCloud Mail), so your messages may be stored and processed outside Canada, including in the United States, where they may be accessible to authorities under local law. We protect them with a password-protected account that uses two-factor authentication.

Apple services

Downloads, purchases, App Store ratings and reviews are handled by Apple. We receive only what Apple shares with developers, such as anonymous sales figures and reviews you choose to publish.

Your choices and rights

You can delete anything you've written in the app at any time. You can ask to see, correct or delete any personal information we hold about you, or withdraw your agreement to our use of it, by emailing us; we'll reply within 30 days.

If you have a concern, please contact us first. You can also complain to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada, or, in Quebec, the Commission d'accès à l'information.

Children

ForwardLog doesn't collect personal information from anyone, including children, unless they email us.

Changes

If this policy changes, we'll post the new version here with a new effective date.
