Homeschool Days is an app for parents who teach their children at home. This policy explains what happens to the information you put into it.
The short version
- Your children's names, your log, your photos and your settings are stored only on your phone.
- Homeschool Days has no accounts, no analytics and no advertising.
- We, the makers of Homeschool Days, cannot see anything you enter.
What the app stores
Everything you enter stays in the app's storage on your phone: your children's names and grades, what you log each day (subject, notes, minutes and book titles), the photos of work you add, your state and your own name. None of it is sent to us or to any server we run.
Photos you take or choose are copied into the app's storage. The app does not read the rest of your photo library.
Deleting the app deletes this data. So does "Erase all data" in Settings.
When information leaves your phone
Information leaves your phone only when you ask for it, or as part of your own phone backup:
- Portfolio and text export. The PDF or text file you create is handed to the app you pick in the share sheet, such as Mail, Files or AirDrop.
- Dictation. When you tap the microphone, speech is turned into text by Apple's speech recognition. Depending on your phone and language, the audio may be sent to Apple for processing under Apple's privacy policy. Homeschool Days does not keep the audio.
- Phone backups. If you back up your phone to iCloud or to a computer, that backup includes the app's data, as it does for your other apps. It is kept under your own Apple Account.
Subscriptions
The Homeschool Days subscription is sold by the App Store. Apple handles payment; we never see your card details. To check whether a subscription is active we use RevenueCat, which receives a random identifier for your app installation and your purchase history for Homeschool Days. It does not receive your children's names, your log or your photos.
Children
Homeschool Days is made for parents, not for children. Information about a child is entered by the parent and stays on the parent's phone as described above.
Your choices
Because your data is on your phone, you are in control of it: you can delete any child or entry, erase everything in Settings, or delete the app. You can turn off camera, microphone and speech recognition access in your phone's settings; the rest of the app keeps working.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be included in an app update and published at the address shown on the Homeschool Days page in the App Store.
