Overview
See the Field is designed with your privacy in mind. The app stores your data locally on your device and does not collect, transmit, or sell personal information. No account is required to use the app.
What Data Is Stored
See the Field stores the following data locally on your device using Apple's SwiftData framework:
- User profile — your chosen display name, experience level, daily goal preference, and onboarding selections
- Progress data — quiz scores, Yards earned, Field Vision (IQ) rating, streak history, badge progress, and quest completion
- Study cards — spaced repetition review dates for concept cards you've studied
- App preferences — notification settings, sound/haptic preferences, field style, and daily goal tier
All of this data stays on your device. It is not sent to any server.
iCloud Sync
If you have iCloud enabled on your device, your profile and progress data may sync to your iCloud account via Apple's CloudKit. This is managed entirely by Apple's infrastructure. See the Field does not operate its own servers or databases.
You can disable iCloud sync for the app in your device's Settings > Apple Account > iCloud.
Analytics and Tracking
See the Field does not include any analytics SDKs, tracking pixels, ad networks, or third-party data collection tools. The app does not track your behavior, location, or usage patterns.
Advertising
See the Field does not display advertisements and does not use advertising identifiers.
Third-Party Services
See the Field does not integrate with any third-party services beyond Apple's native frameworks (SwiftData, CloudKit, local notifications). No data is shared with third parties.
Notifications
See the Field may request permission to send local notifications for daily practice reminders, streak alerts, achievement notifications, and weekly summaries. These notifications are scheduled locally on your device — they are not push notifications from a server. You can manage or disable notifications at any time in the app's settings or in your device's notification settings.
Children's Privacy
See the Field does not collect personal information from anyone, including children. The app is suitable for all ages and does not require age verification or an account.
Data Retention
Since all data is stored locally on your device, it persists until you either delete the app or use the "Reset All Progress" option in Settings. If you delete the app, all local data is removed. iCloud-synced data follows Apple's standard iCloud retention policies.
Your Rights
Since See the Field does not collect or transmit personal data to any server, there is no personal data held by us to access, correct, or delete. Your data is entirely under your control on your device.
Changes to This Policy
If this privacy policy changes, the updated version will be posted here with a new "Last updated" date. Significant changes will be noted in the app's release notes.
