StudyBuddy is a private, local-first study organiser for students. This policy explains what the app does and does not do with your information. The short version: StudyBuddy does not collect, transmit, or share any personal data. Everything you enter stays on your own device.
None. StudyBuddy has no user accounts, no sign-in, and no servers of its own. We do not collect your name, email address, location, contacts, or any other personal information.
Everything you add to the app — your name, subjects, timetable, homework, reminders, academic year, wake and leave times, and any optional preferences such as a faith for routine times or a country for public holidays — is stored only on your device, using your device's local storage. It is never uploaded to us or to anyone else, and we cannot see it.
StudyBuddy does not use your device's GPS or request location permission. If you choose a country and region during setup (used to calculate things like public holidays or optional faith-routine times), that choice is a setting you pick from a list and is stored on your device only. No actual location data is accessed or transmitted.
The app can show you reminders (for example, daily study or routine reminders). These are scheduled and shown entirely on your device by the operating system. No notification content is sent to us or any third party.
StudyBuddy contains no advertising, no analytics, and no third-party tracking or software development kits. Because the app does not connect to any server, there is nothing to share with third parties.
StudyBuddy is intended for students aged 13 and over. Because the app collects no personal information at all, it does not knowingly collect data from children or anyone else.
Your data lives on your device for as long as the app is installed. You can delete it at any time by clearing the app's data in your device settings, or by uninstalling the app. Because we never receive your data, there is nothing for us to delete on our side.
If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted at this address with a new "last updated" date.
