Privacy

Your log stays on your phone.

Duluk has no account, no server of its own, and no way to read what you prayed. This page says what does and does not leave the device.

What Duluk stores

Everything you log, every prayer, every fix to the history, every setting, is written to a database on your iPhone. It is not uploaded. There is no sign-in, no email address, no password, and nothing about you sits on a server I run. The website’s waitlist is the one exception, covered below.

The Duluk widget reads the same on-device database through an app group, so the home screen can show today without any network call.

If you delete the app, the log goes with it. The only copy that survives is a backup file you export yourself.

Your location

To pick prayer times and a timezone, Duluk asks once for your rough location. It takes one coarse fix, matches it against a list of cities that ships inside the app, and keeps the nearest city and its timezone. The coordinate is used on the phone and never sent anywhere.

You can say no. Duluk then shows a city picker and works exactly the same.

Reminders

Prayer reminders are local notifications, scheduled by the app on your phone. No push service is involved and no reminder passes through a server.

Cards and photos

When you save a card, Duluk asks for permission to add to your Photos. That permission is add-only. The app cannot read or browse your photo library.

Sharing a card to Instagram hands the image to the Instagram app. From there Instagram’s own privacy policy applies.

Backups

You can export your whole log as a file and import it again later. The file is yours. Where you keep it, iCloud Drive, a message to yourself, anywhere, is your choice, and Duluk never sees it after export.

The waitlist on this website

The one thing this site collects is the email address you type into the form on the front page. It goes to beehiiv, the service that sends the emails, and nowhere else. beehiiv’s servers are in the United States, and it sees the address along with the IP address the request came from.

I use it to send a few emails before Duluk is out and one on the day it launches. Every one of them has an unsubscribe link at the bottom, and it takes you off the list for good.

Joining does not create an account, and the app never knows you are on the list. beehiiv’s own policy is at beehiiv.com/privacy.

What Duluk does send

Duluk sends a short list of product events to PostHog, an analytics service, so I can see whether onboarding makes sense and which features get used. The full list of events is:

• that the app was opened
• which onboarding screen was shown, and which answer you chose
• that you logged a prayer for the first time — not which prayer, not when, not how many
• that the paywall was shown and which way you left it, which feature you tapped, and which plan was bought
• that reminder permission was requested
• that a backup was exported or imported
• the answer you gave the “how’s Duluk going” check-in, and any note you typed and chose to send

That is the whole list. Events never carry which prayers you prayed, when you prayed them, how many you have logged, whether you Paused, your Pause dates, a coordinate, or your name. The share cards are a worked example: Duluk records that a card was saved and which design it was, never the number printed on it, because a number is prayer data. Screen recording, session replay, automatic screen tracking and crash capture are switched off in the analytics library.

You can turn all of it off. Settings, Anonymous usage. Off means nothing is sent at all.

Like any analytics tool, PostHog receives an anonymous install identifier with each event, plus the device model, iOS version and app version. Its servers, hosted in the United States, see your IP address when the request arrives. PostHog’s own policy is at posthog.com/privacy.

Purchases

Duluk Plus is sold through the App Store. Apple handles payment, so Duluk never sees your name, card or billing address. The app only learns whether a subscription or founding purchase is active on your Apple ID.

iCloud, later

Duluk does not sync today. If iCloud sync is added, it will use your own iCloud account, the data will still be yours, and this page will be updated before it ships.

Children

Duluk collects almost nothing from anyone and asks for nothing personal, so there is nothing extra to say about children beyond the above.

Your choices

• Location, notifications and Photos can each be revoked in iOS Settings at any time.
• Deleting the app deletes the log and everything else on the device.
• Settings, Anonymous usage, switches off the list above completely.
• If you want the analytics events tied to your install removed from PostHog, message me and I will do it.

Contact

If you email me, I get your address and whatever you write, and I use them only to reply.
