Latch privacy policy

Nothing leaves your iPhone

Latch has no account, no servers, no analytics, no crash reporting and no ads, and it never connects to the internet. Your rules, settings and logs stay on your iPhone. We do not collect, sell or share any personal data.

What Latch keeps on your iPhone

The rules you make, the focus timer and strict mode state, your break glass use, a log of Latch's own decisions for the last days, a count of blocks per day, and a one-way hash of your NFC sticker's ID. All of it is stored only on the device. Deleting Latch deletes all of it.

Screen Time

Latch uses Apple's Screen Time API to apply the limits you set yourself. Apple hands Latch sealed references to the apps you pick; Latch cannot see which apps they are. The weekly report is drawn by an Apple Screen Time extension on your iPhone: the usage numbers are shown to you and are never stored by Latch or sent anywhere.

Purchases

Latch Pro is sold through the App Store. Apple handles payment under its own privacy policy; Latch only learns whether Pro is active.

Diagnostics

"Export diagnostics" creates a text file with rule names and Latch's states. It goes nowhere unless you choose to share it yourself.

Who Latch is for

Latch is a self-control app for adults. It collects no data from anyone who uses it.

Changes

If this policy changes, the new version will be posted here with a new effective date.
