Privacy policy
Folded keeps your Lists and Trips on your iPhone and, if you use iCloud, in your own private iCloud. It does not collect, store or send any personal data to its developer.
Effective date: 31 October 2026
What Folded stores, and where
Your packing Lists, the items in them, your Trips (destination, dates, which items are packed) and the notes from your trip reviews are stored on your device, in the app's own storage. If you are signed in to iCloud and iCloud is on for Folded, they are also kept in your private iCloud database, so they stay the same on every iPhone you use with your Apple Account and come back after a reinstall. That database belongs to your Apple Account: Apple stores it under Apple's terms, and the developer cannot see or read it. There is no Folded server. With iCloud off for Folded, your data stays on this device only.
If you back up your iPhone with iCloud Backup or to a computer, this data is included in that backup the same way as every other app's data, under Apple's terms.
No account, no analytics, no tracking
There is no sign-in. Folded contains no analytics, no advertising and no third-party code that collects data. It does not track you across apps or websites.
Purchase
Folded is bought once from the App Store. Apple processes the purchase. The developer receives no information about you from it.
Permissions
Folded asks for one permission, notifications, the first time you create a Trip. It is used for one reminder at 09:00 the morning after your trip ends, asking you to review it. The reminder is scheduled on your device and nothing is sent anywhere. If you say no, everything else works the same. Folded does not use your camera, photos, contacts or location.
Pasting from Notes
When you use Paste, Folded reads the text you paste, on your device, to sort it into items and categories. The text is not sent anywhere.
Children
Folded collects no data from anyone, including children.
Deleting your data
Delete items, Lists and Trips in the app. With iCloud on, deleting something also removes it from your iCloud and your other iPhones. Deleting the app removes the data from your device but leaves your iCloud copy in place, so it comes back if you reinstall. To remove the iCloud copy, go to Settings › your name › iCloud › Manage Account Storage › Folded and delete its data there.
