Quit Smoking Privacy Policy
Last updated: December 2025
Privacy by Design
Quit Smoking is built with privacy as a core principle. The app works 100% offline, requires no account, and stores all your data locally on your device. Your quit journey is personal, and it should stay that way.
Information We Collect
We Don't Collect Your Data
Quit Smoking is designed to work completely offline. Your health and smoking data never leaves your device.
- All quit progress, cravings, and achievements are stored locally on your device
- No cloud sync or backup to external servers
- No account creation required
- No personal information collected
- No analytics or tracking SDKs
- No internet connection required for any feature
Data Stored on Your Device
Quit Smoking stores the following information locally on your device:
- Smoking profile (type: cigarettes, vape, IQOS, etc.)
- Quit date and progress tracking
- Daily consumption and cost information
- Craving records and outcomes
- Health milestone achievements
- Relapse history (if any)
- App preferences and settings
Important: This data is stored using iOS native storage (Core Data) and is protected by your device's security features, including encryption and passcode/biometric protection.
Limited External Communication
The only external communication occurs for:
- Subscription purchases: Processed securely through Apple App Store
- Subscription verification: Periodic checks with Apple's servers to verify premium status
We receive only subscription status from Apple - no payment details or personal information.
How We Use Your Information
Since we don't collect your information, there's nothing to use. Your data exists only on your device for the purpose of:
- Tracking your smoke-free progress and streaks
- Calculating health recovery milestones
- Computing money saved and cigarettes avoided
- Recording and analyzing craving patterns
- Displaying achievements and statistics
- Enabling premium features based on subscription status
Data Storage and Security
Local Only
All data stored locally using iOS Core Data framework with native encryption.
Device Protected
Data protected by your device passcode, Face ID, or Touch ID.
No Transmission
Your quit journey and health data are never transmitted to any server.
You Control
Delete the app to permanently remove all data from your device.
Health Data Sensitivity
Your Health Data is Yours
We understand that smoking cessation data is sensitive health information. That's why we designed Quit Smoking to work entirely offline. Your smoking history, quit attempts, and health progress are never shared with anyone - not even us.
Notifications
Quit Smoking uses local notifications to support your quit journey. These notifications are:
- Scheduled entirely on your device
- Not transmitted to any external server
- Fully customizable in the app settings
- Can be disabled at any time through iOS Settings
Third-Party Services
Apple App Store
We use Apple's StoreKit for in-app purchases. Apple handles all payment processing according to their Privacy Policy. We only receive subscription status information from Apple.
Quit Smoking does not use any other third-party services, analytics, advertising networks, or tracking SDKs.
Your Rights and Choices
- Full Control: All your data is on your device under your control
- Data Deletion: Delete the app to remove all data permanently
- Notifications: Enable or disable reminders in app settings or iOS Settings
- Subscription: Manage subscriptions through your Apple ID settings
Children's Privacy
Quit Smoking is intended for users who are trying to quit smoking and is not designed for children. Since we don't collect any personal information, there is no data collected from users of any age.
Data Backup
Quit Smoking data may be included in your device's iCloud or local backups if you have iOS backup enabled. This is controlled by your device settings and Apple's backup encryption. We do not have access to your backups.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy occasionally. Since Quit Smoking works offline, any changes will be communicated through app updates. The "Last updated" date above reflects the most recent version.
