Privacy Policy
The short version
- Gleed works without an account. Your tasks, focus sessions, reflections and settings are stored on your device, not on our servers.
- Data leaves your device only when you choose. AI prioritization and anonymous usage stats are both off until you turn them on, and a feedback message is sent only when you send it.
- We don’t sell your data, show ads, or track you across other apps and websites.
Who we are
This policy covers the Gleed app and this website. “Gleed”, “we” and “us” mean the team that makes the app. You can reach us through the support page.
What stays on your device
Everything you put into Gleed — tasks, notes, due dates, your daily one thing, focus sessions, reflections and settings — is kept in a database inside the app on your device. We can’t see it, and none of it is sent to us unless you use one of the optional features below.
- Reminders are scheduled by the app on your device. No push server is involved.
- Widgets show your current Gleed on your home screen. That data stays on your device too.
- Exports create a file with your data. Where that file goes is up to you.
- Device backups: if your phone backs up app data (for example to iCloud or Google), that backup is handled by Apple or Google under your account, not by us.
AI prioritization (optional, off by default)
Gleed can suggest which task to do today. Normally that suggestion is worked out on your device. If you turn on AI prioritization and accept the notice in the app, then each time you ask for a suggestion the app sends:
- the titles of the open tasks being compared (up to 30);
- for each task: whether you marked it urgent or important, its effort, whether it unblocks other work, its due date, and whether you’ve already worked on it;
- today’s date and, if you set one, how much time you have;
- the anonymous subscriber ID from your Gleed Plus purchase, so our server can confirm your subscription with our subscription provider. It isn’t linked to your name or email.
It never sends task notes, reflections, your history or anything else.
The request goes through our server to a third-party AI model provider. The provider acts as our processor: it uses the data only to produce your suggestion. Under its terms for business customers it does not train its models on this data, and it may keep it for a limited time for safety and abuse monitoring. Our server does not store the request or the answer. Our logs record only counts, such as how many tasks were sent and how long the answer took.
If you use this feature, avoid putting sensitive personal details in task titles. You can turn it off at any time in Settings → Data & privacy → Privacy, and the app goes back to on-device suggestions.
Anonymous usage stats (optional, off by default)
If you turn on “Share anonymous usage stats”, the app records product events such as “focus session completed” or “task created”. Each event carries only numbers, yes/no values and fixed labels, plus the app version and a random install ID that isn’t linked to your name, email or device. Events never include task titles, notes, reflections or anything you type.
Events are sent in batches to our analytics provider and are used only to learn which features help and what to improve. We don’t build personal profiles from them. If you turn this off, any events still waiting on your device are deleted.
Purchases
Gleed Plus is sold through the App Store and Google Play. Apple or Google take the payment; we never see your card or billing details. We use a subscription management provider to check what you’ve bought. It receives an anonymous app user ID and your purchase records from the store (such as the product, dates and transaction IDs) so it can unlock Plus and restore your purchases.
Feedback and support messages
When you send feedback from the app or through the support page, we receive the message, its category and, if available, your platform and app version. Our team reads these messages to fix problems and improve the app. Neither form asks for your name or email. If you include an email address so we can reply, we use it only for that. We keep messages only as long as we need them.
Our server and this website
Our server runs on a cloud hosting provider. Like any website, it receives your IP address and basic request details, such as the time and the page requested. We use your IP address briefly, in memory only, to stop abuse such as too many requests in a minute. We don’t store it. The hosting provider may keep standard request logs for a limited time for security and operations.
This website uses no cookies, no analytics and no advertising, and it loads nothing from other websites.
What we never do
- We don’t sell or rent personal data.
- We don’t show ads or share data with advertisers or data brokers.
- We don’t track you across other companies’ apps or websites.
Where data is processed
Our hosting, AI, analytics and subscription providers may process data in other countries, including the United States. Where the law requires it, we use the safeguards it sets for these transfers.
Your choices and rights
- Get a copy of your data: in the app, go to Settings → Data & privacy → Your data → Export your data.
- Delete your data: in the same place, choose Delete all data. It removes your tasks, history, reflections and settings, cancels scheduled reminders, clears the widget and deletes any usage events still waiting to be sent. Uninstalling the app also removes everything stored on the device.
- Turn features off: AI prioritization and anonymous usage stats can be switched off at any time.
- Feedback you sent us: ask through the support page and we’ll tell you what we hold and delete it.
Because there’s no account, we can’t recover data for you if your phone is lost or the app is deleted. Keep an export somewhere safe.
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete or move your personal data, and to object to or limit how it’s used. To use these rights, contact us through the support page. You can also complain to your local data protection authority.
Children
Gleed isn’t directed at children under 13, and we don’t knowingly collect personal data from them.
Changes to this policy
If we change this policy, we’ll update this page and the effective date above. If a change is significant, we’ll also tell you in the app.
