**Effective Date:** March 10, 2026
**Last Updated:** March 10, 2026
RenewNest (“RenewNest,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) provides an iOS app and widget to help users track subscriptions and recurring bills. This Privacy Policy explains what information is processed, how it is used, and your choices.
## 1. Scope
This Privacy Policy applies to:
- RenewNest iOS app
- RenewNest widget extension
- Related support/privacy pages you provide
It does not apply to third-party services that may be linked from the app (for example, merchant cancellation pages).
## 2. Information We Process
### A. Information You Enter in the App
You may enter and store:
- Subscription details (name, amount, billing cycle, category, dates, status)
- Notes, tags, icons, and cancellation URLs
- Budget and reminder preferences
- Optional imported transaction/subscription data from files you choose (such as CSV or PDF)
### B. Information Processed on Your Device
RenewNest may process on-device data to provide features, such as:
- Renewal reminders
- Trial-end alerts
- Budget alerts and spending summaries
- Recurring charge detection from content you import or provide in-app
### C. Notification Data
If you allow notifications, RenewNest stores notification schedules and sends local reminders on your device.
### D. Widget Shared Data
If you use widgets, RenewNest stores limited subscription summary data in app-group storage so widgets can display upcoming renewals and spending information.
### E. Advertising-Related Data (Google AdMob)
RenewNest uses Google AdMob to display ads. Google and its partners may collect or receive data such as:
- Device identifiers
- App interaction data
- Approximate location and diagnostic/performance data (depending on SDK behavior, device settings, and consent requirements)
We do not intentionally share your subscription content (such as notes or detailed subscription records) with advertisers.
### F. iCloud Sync (If Enabled and Available)
Some versions/builds may offer optional iCloud sync through Apple CloudKit. If enabled, your subscription data may sync via your Apple ID and iCloud account, subject to Apple’s terms and privacy practices.
## 3. How We Use Information
We use information to:
- Operate core app features
- Store and display your subscriptions and billing timeline
- Send local renewal/trial/budget reminders
- Generate insights and summaries
- Import/export/backup your data
- Support widgets
- Improve reliability, security, and performance
- Display ads via third-party ad services
## 4. Legal Bases (EEA/UK Users)
Where applicable, we rely on:
- **Performance of a contract** (providing app features you request)
- **Consent** (for notifications, and where required for ads/tracking permissions)
- **Legitimate interests** (security, bug fixing, and service improvement)
## 5. Data Sharing and Disclosure
We may share data only in these situations:
- **Service providers** (for example, Google AdMob for ads)
- **Apple services** (for example, CloudKit/iCloud if you enable sync)
- **Legal compliance** (if required by law, subpoena, or legal process)
- **Business transfer** (if ownership of the app changes)
We do **not** sell your personal information.
## 6. Data Retention
- Data you add in RenewNest is stored until you delete it.
- If you uninstall the app, local app data is removed from your device (subject to iOS behavior/backups).
- Exported files/backups remain wherever you save/share them until you delete them.
- If iCloud sync is enabled, data may remain in your iCloud account until removed.

- Edit or delete subscription records in the app
- Disable notifications in iOS Settings
- Disable Background App Refresh in iOS Settings
- Control ad personalization and privacy controls as provided by Apple/Google
- Remove app data by deleting content in-app or uninstalling the app

## 9. International Data Transfers
Third-party services (such as ad providers) may process data in countries outside your own. Those providers are responsible for applicable transfer safeguards under their policies and legal obligations.
## 10. Children’s Privacy
RenewNest is not directed to children under 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
