DoorCodes Privacy Policy

Privacy Policy

DoorCodes is designed to help you store place-based access details and surface them privately when you need them. This policy draft covers the current iPhone and iPad launch scope.

Back to Home Support

Information DoorCodes stores

DoorCodes stores the information you choose to add, including:

place names and addresses
saved access codes and optional notes
favorites, settings, and privacy preferences
recent arrival, reveal, and copy activity used to power in-app history and quick access

How DoorCodes uses permissions

Location: to sort nearby places and, if you allow Always access, monitor background arrivals.
Notifications: to deliver privacy-safe arrival reminders.
Face ID / Touch ID / passcode authentication: to protect hidden codes when Secure Reveal is enabled.

Storage And Privacy

How DoorCodes handles your data

DoorCodes is designed as a personal utility, not a social or ad-supported network. The app is built to minimize public exposure of saved access details.

Cloud Sync

Cloud Sync is optional. If you enable it, your DoorCodes data is stored in your private iCloud account using Apple’s CloudKit services. If you do not enable it, your data stays on the device unless you manually export or share it.

Notification privacy

DoorCodes includes notification privacy modes so lock-screen alerts can avoid showing sensitive details. Raw access codes are not intended to appear on the lock screen by default.

Biometric protection

If Secure Reveal is enabled, DoorCodes can require Face ID, Touch ID, or device passcode authentication before protected codes are revealed or copied.

Additional Terms

Sharing, retention, and contact

This section is the final publication check before you host the page publicly.

Data sharing

DoorCodes is not designed as an ad-supported or social-sharing product. Based on the current launch scope, the app does not intentionally publish your saved place data or access codes to other users.

If you enable Cloud Sync, your data is transmitted to Apple’s CloudKit infrastructure as part of your private iCloud database. Apple’s handling of iCloud data is governed by Apple’s own terms and privacy materials.

Data retention and deletion

You can edit or delete saved places and codes inside the app.
If Cloud Sync is disabled, deleting the app may remove local on-device data that is not backed up elsewhere.
If Cloud Sync is enabled, synced records may remain in your private iCloud storage until removed through the app or your iCloud data lifecycle.

Children’s privacy

DoorCodes is not directed to children under 13.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the effective date on this page should be updated before the revised version is published.
