Privacy policy
The short version: Kipi keeps your saves on your iPhone. We don’t run servers that store your content, we don’t have accounts, and we don’t use analytics or advertising. We can’t see what you save.
What stays on your phone
Everything you save to Kipi stays in the app’s storage on your iPhone: links, captions, screenshots, notes, collections, reminders and the text Kipi reads from your screenshots. Text in images is read on the device using Apple’s Vision framework. None of this is sent to us.
When your phone connects to other services
Kipi has no servers of its own. Your iPhone talks directly to these services, only for the reasons listed:
| Service | Why | What it receives |
|---|---|---|
| The site you saved from (for example TikTok, Instagram, X, YouTube, Pinterest or any web page) | To fetch the title, picture and caption for a preview card | The link you saved and your phone’s IP address, as with any normal web request. Some previews load in a private, hidden web view that doesn’t keep cookies. |
| Apple Books search | To find a cover and author when you save a post about a book | The book title Kipi detected |
| Your iCloud Drive (Kipi Pro, only if you turn on backup) | To keep an encrypted backup of your saves | Your saves, encrypted on your phone with AES-256 before upload. The key stays in your iCloud Keychain and in the recovery code you keep. Apple and Kipi can’t read the backup. |
| Apple App Store and RevenueCat | To process Kipi Pro purchases and check whether Pro is active | A random app user ID, your purchase history for Kipi, and basic device information such as country and app version. RevenueCat is our purchase processor and doesn’t receive your saves. See RevenueCat’s privacy policy. |
What we don’t do
- No accounts, email addresses or phone numbers.
- No analytics, tracking or advertising SDKs.
- No selling or sharing of data with data brokers or advertisers.
- No tracking across other companies’ apps or websites.
Notifications
Reminders, such as a voucher about to expire or the end of a free trial, are scheduled on your phone as local notifications. They don’t go through any server.
Deleting your data
Delete any save in the app, or delete everything in Settings → Delete everything. Deleting the app removes all its data from your phone. To remove a backup, turn off backup in Kipi, or delete the Kipi folder in iCloud Drive from the Files app.
Children
Kipi isn’t directed at children under 13 and doesn’t knowingly collect information from them.
Changes
If this policy changes, we’ll update this page and the date at the top. If a change affects what leaves your phone, we’ll also tell you in the app.
