Privacy Policy
No data collected
Motes does not collect any data. Nothing is collected by Orlien Studio or by anyone else. There are no accounts, no ads, no analytics, no tracking, and no third-party SDKs. The app makes no network connections.
Stored only on your device
Your streak (the days in a row you opened the app) and whether you found today’s secret are stored only on your device, in iOS UserDefaults. Deleting the app deletes them.
Sharing a video clip
Motes makes a short video clip only when you tap the share button. The clip is made on your device. It contains the last few seconds, or a secret you just found, with its sound and the date. It is shared only where you choose in the iOS share sheet, and Motes deletes its copy when the share sheet closes. The sound in a clip is the app’s own generated sound: Motes never uses the microphone or the camera.
Photo library
The photo library permission is add-only. iOS asks for it only if you pick “Save Video” to save a clip. Add-only means it lets a clip be added to your photo library. It does not let Motes see your photos.
Motion data
On some days, Motes reads your iPhone’s motion sensors as part of the toy. Motion data is used only on your device, and it is never stored or sent.
Children
Motes collects nothing from anyone, including children.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
