Privacy Policy.

How we handle the small amount of information we touch, and why most of your data never reaches us.

Effective: [DATE TO BE SET BEFORE GO‑LIVE]

Routine Genius LLC ("Routine Genius," "we," "us," or "our") operates the website routine-genius.com and develops the products listed on this site, including Cipher, RIG, and the Routine Genius Shop (collectively, the "Services").

This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and share information in connection with our Services. Our products are built to be private by architecture — most of the data generated when you use our apps stays on your device and is never transmitted to us.

1. What we don't collect from our apps

The Routine Genius apps (including Cipher and RIG) are designed to run locally on your device. We do not collect, see, or store:

Apple App Privacy disclosures. For the purposes of Apple's App Store privacy disclosures, our apps fall under "Data Not Collected" for all data types unless specifically noted in an app's own listing. We do not link any in‑app data to your identity, and we do not use data for tracking across other companies' apps or websites.

2. What we do collect

When you contact us

If you submit our contact form or email us, we receive:

This information is used only to respond to your inquiry. It is not sold, rented, or shared with third parties for marketing.

App Store distribution data

When you download or purchase our apps from the Apple App Store, Apple provides us with aggregated, anonymized download and sales statistics. We do not receive your Apple ID, name, email address, or any other personally identifying information about you from Apple.

Website analytics

We may use privacy‑respecting analytics tools on this website to understand aggregate visitor patterns. These tools are configured to anonymize IP addresses, do not use tracking cookies, and do not identify you personally.

4. Sharing with third parties

5. Data retention

We retain contact form submissions for as long as needed to respond to your inquiry, and for a reasonable period afterward in case of follow‑up. You may request deletion at any time by emailing info@routine-genius.com.

6. Your rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or export your personal information. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at info@routine-genius.com.

For residents of the European Economic Area and United Kingdom

Our lawful bases for processing personal data are: (a) your consent (which you can withdraw at any time), and (b) our legitimate interest in operating and improving our Services. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

For California residents

Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), you have the right to know what personal information we collect, the right to delete it, and the right to opt out of sale. We do not sell personal information.

7. Children's privacy

Our products are not directed to children under 13 (or under 16 in some jurisdictions), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.

8. Security

We take reasonable measures to protect personal information from loss, theft, misuse, and unauthorized access. No method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure, however, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. International users

If you access our Services from outside the United States, your information may be transferred to and processed in the United States, where our hosting infrastructure is located. By using our Services you consent to this transfer.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will post the updated policy on this page with a revised effective date. Material changes will be communicated to active users where reasonably possible.
