Privacy Policy for The Garden

Effective date: May 16, 2026

The Garden is a private plant journal app. This Privacy Policy explains what information the app handles and how that information is used.

Summary

The Garden does not collect personal data from you on our servers. Your plant journal content is stored locally on your device.

Information the App Handles

The app can store the following information on your device:

• plant names
• plant types and locations
• journal notes and milestones
• photos you choose to add to your journal
• an onboarding completion flag

How Information Is Used

This information is used only to provide the app’s core functionality, including:

• showing your plant list and timeline
• saving journal entries and photos
• remembering whether onboarding has been completed

Data Collection

The Garden does not collect, transmit, or store your journal data on a remote server operated by the developer.

Analytics and Tracking

The Garden does not use third-party advertising SDKs, does not track users across apps or websites, and does not use third-party analytics services.

Photos and Camera Access

If you choose to add a photo, the app may request permission to access your photo library or camera. These permissions are used only to let you pick or capture images for your plant journal.

Granting these permissions is optional. If you do not grant them, you can still use the app without photo features.

Storage

Journal content is stored locally on your device. If you delete the app or clear its data, your stored journal content may be removed.

Children's Privacy

The Garden is not designed to knowingly collect personal information from children.

Third-Party Services

The app relies on Apple and platform-level services required to install and run the app. The developer does not use those services to create advertising profiles or to independently track users.

Your Choices

• You can choose whether to add notes or photos.
• You can deny photo library or camera access in your device settings.
• You can delete plants and entries inside the app.
• You can remove the app from your device at any time.

Changes to This Policy
