RenewList Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 26, 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how RenewList (“the app”, “we”, “us”) handles information when you use our iOS app. RenewList is developed by Leo, an individual developer based in China.

RenewList is a subscription reminder and cancel-guide tool. We do not operate user accounts and we do not receive your subscription data on our servers. Information you enter is stored locally on your device unless you choose to export it.

1. Information processed on your device

When you use RenewList, the app may process the following information on your device only:

• Subscription entries you create — service name, amount, billing cycle, dates, notes, payment source, reminder settings, and related fields.
• Activity history — local logs tied to your subscriptions (for example, when you add or update an entry).
• App preferences — such as default currency, language, and reminder time settings stored on your device.
• Catalog reference data — read-only service names and cancel-guide text shipped inside the app bundle (not personal data).

We do not upload this information to our servers.

2. Optional features and permissions

You can use RenewList without granting optional permissions. If you enable optional features, the app may request:

• Photo Library — if you choose a screenshot to fill in subscription fields. Text recognition runs on your device. RenewList does not save or upload the original image.
• Microphone and Speech Recognition — if you use voice input to add a subscription. RenewList prefers on-device speech recognition when your device and language support it. In some cases, audio may be processed by Apple’s system speech services; RenewList does not receive or store raw audio.
• Notifications — if you allow local reminders for renewals or trial end dates. Reminders are scheduled on your device. We do not send push notifications from our servers.

You can change or revoke permissions anytime in iOS Settings.

3. Exchange rates (third-party API)

When your subscriptions use different currencies than your default currency, RenewList may request public exchange rates over HTTPS from Frankfurter (api.frankfurter.dev) so home-screen and summary totals can be shown in your default currency.

• The request includes only currency codes (for example, your default currency and the source currencies needed). It does not include subscription names, amounts, notes, or any user identifier.
• We do not operate the exchange-rate service and we do not receive these requests on our servers.
• Rates may be cached on your device. If a refresh fails, the app uses the cache when available or shows unavailable totals (for example, --).

If all subscription currencies match your default currency, no exchange-rate request is made.

4. What we do not do

• We do not connect to your bank, credit card, or payment accounts.
• We do not cancel subscriptions on your behalf.
• We do not sell your personal information.
• We do not use third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking SDKs in this version.
• We do not operate cloud sync or backup servers for your subscription data.

5. Export, retention, and deletion

• Export and import — you can export your data as JSON or CSV from Settings → Data, and import JSON or CSV backups on the same device or a new one. Import stays on your device; we do not receive imported files.
• Retention — data remains on your device until you edit or delete entries or remove the app.
• Deletion — deleting the app removes locally stored subscription data from that device. Because we do not host your data, we cannot delete it for you remotely.

You are responsible for keeping backups of exports you create. Use Settings → Data → Import data to restore on a new device.

6. Links to other services

Cancel guides may include links to third-party websites (for example, Netflix or Apple subscription settings). Those sites have their own privacy practices. We do not control and are not responsible for third-party sites.

7. Apple system services

RenewList uses Apple frameworks such as SwiftData, Vision (on-device text recognition), Speech, and UserNotifications. Processing by these frameworks is governed by Apple’s policies and your device settings.

8. Children

RenewList contains no objectionable content and is suitable for general audiences, including younger users with a parent or guardian’s permission. We do not knowingly collect personal information on our servers because we do not operate account or cloud storage services. All information you enter remains on your device under your control.

9. International users

RenewList is offered globally. Because your data stays on your device and is not transmitted to us, privacy rights requests that require us to access stored data (for example, access or erasure on our systems) generally do not apply— you can export or delete data directly on your device as described above.

If you contact us, we will use your email address only to respond to your message.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. Material changes will be posted here. Continued use of RenewList after an update means you accept the revised policy. We do not send policy update emails because RenewList does not require an account.
