Privacy Policy

Short version

Pink Lark does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. Each morning, Pink Lark shows one tiny weird whim on a card, written by Apple's on-device language model when Apple Intelligence is available and picked from a built-in list otherwise. You do the whim in the world, tap Done, and the streak counter goes up by one. The whim text, the streak count — all stay on your device. There are no accounts, no analytics, and no third-party SDKs that contact a server. The only network calls the app makes are to Apple's StoreKit when you choose to subscribe or unlock the Lifetime tier.

Who we are

Pink Lark is published by Danielius Studio LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company at 30 N Gould St, Suite #5280, Sheridan, WY 82801, USA (“we”, “us”).

Data we do NOT collect

• No account, no email, no password — the app has no signup.
• No analytics, no telemetry, no event tracking.
• No advertising identifiers (no IDFA, no fingerprinting).
• No usage data sent off the device.
• No location, no contacts, no calendar, no photos. The app does not request these permissions.
• No microphone, no HealthKit.

System permissions

Pink Lark asks only for permission to send notifications, for the daily nudge at seven. The whim generator runs entirely in-process on your device. No camera, no microphone, no location, no contacts.

What stays on your device

• Today's whim text and the date it was generated. Stored as a single TodayWhim record in on-device SwiftData. Yesterday's whim is overwritten when today's generates.
• Your streak (current and longest run, whims done and the last day you tapped Done), stored in on-device SwiftData. The date the app was first launched and how many whims you have had, stored in UserDefaults.
• Whether the onboarding intro has been acknowledged.
• If you allow reminders, the time of day you usually open the app, so a few tips and reminders arrive at a good moment in your first week. They are scheduled on your device and nothing is sent to us.

All of the above lives on your device and never leaves it. Uninstalling the app deletes it.

On-device intelligence (Apple Intelligence)

With Apple Intelligence, the whim generation uses Apple's on-device language model, accessed through the public Foundation Models framework on iOS 26. The model executes on your iPhone's Neural Engine. The prompt is constructed in-process and never leaves the device. The app does not use Apple's Private Cloud Compute fallback for this feature.

The on-device language model is available only on Apple Intelligence-capable devices (iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 16, or newer) running iOS 26 or later, with Apple Intelligence turned on. On other devices, Pink Lark picks each whim from a built-in list inside the app.

In-app purchases

Everything is unlocked for your first 3 days. After that, free use includes up to 7 whims in total, and Pink Lark Pro removes the limit. If you choose to subscribe (Monthly, Annual) or buy the Lifetime unlock, that transaction is handled by Apple's StoreKit. Apple processes the payment and shares only the receipt with the app so we can verify your entitlement. We never see your card number, billing address, or any personal information beyond Apple's opaque transaction identifier.

Subscription receipts are stored on-device by iOS and used to validate your entitlement when you re-open the app. They are not sent to any server we operate.

Family Sharing

Pink Lark Pro purchases (Monthly, Annual, Lifetime) are Family-Shareable through Apple's standard Family Sharing mechanism. Apple handles eligibility checks; we do not see who is in your family group.

Children

Pink Lark is rated 4+ in the App Store. Because the app collects no data at all, it complies with COPPA and similar children's-privacy regulations by design.

Your rights

Because Pink Lark does not collect data, there is nothing for us to export, correct, or delete on your behalf. To revoke all access and remove all on-device state, simply delete the app.

Changes

If we ever introduce a feature that involves any data leaving the device (for example, a shared whim feed), this page will be updated and the “Last updated” date at the top will change. For v1.0, no such feature exists.
