BloomPrint — Privacy Policy

Effective date: June 26, 2026

The short version

BloomPrint has no servers, no accounts, and no tracking. We never receive, store, or have any way to read your information. Everything the app creates — your events, RSVPs, polls, and shared photos — lives in your own iCloud and your fellow participants' iCloud, under Apple's privacy protections. Adding an event to your calendar happens entirely on your device. There is no analytics SDK, no advertising, no IDFA, and nothing is ever sold or shared with anyone.

If a privacy policy could be one sentence, it would be: we built BloomPrint so that we, the developer, can't see your data — and neither can anyone you didn't invite.

Who this covers

This policy applies to the BloomPrint iMessage app and its companion iOS app ("the app", "BloomPrint", "we", "us"). It explains what happens to information when you use the app, and — just as importantly — what doesn't happen.

What we don't do

• We don't run a backend. There is no BloomPrint server or database that holds your information.
• We don't have accounts or sign-in. You never create a username or password with us, and we never see your Apple ID.
• We don't use analytics or tracking. No analytics SDK, no App Tracking Transparency prompt, no IDFA, no SKAdNetwork, no advertising, no third-party trackers.
• We don't sell or share your data. We have nothing to sell, because we never collect it in the first place.
• We don't access your real name or your Contacts. (More on this below.)

Where your data lives, and who can see it

BloomPrint stores everything in Apple's infrastructure, tied to your Apple ID and those of the people you plan with — never on anything we operate.

• Events, RSVPs, and polls are stored using Apple CloudKit, in the private and shared databases of the people in your plan. When you create an event, it lives in your iCloud; when you invite a group, Apple's secure sharing (CKShare) gives those participants access to that same event. We configured the data structure, but the records themselves sit in your and your participants' personal iCloud accounts, which we cannot read — the same way we can't read anyone else's iCloud.
• The event "bubble" in your conversation travels inside your iMessage thread. Apple end-to-end encrypts iMessage between you and the people you're messaging; we don't operate that service and never see your messages.
• Shared photos and videos ("memories") are ones you choose with the system photo picker. The app makes a smaller copy and stores it, again through CloudKit, as part of the shared event in the event host's iCloud storage. We cannot read these either.

Because all of this lives in your iCloud and your participants' iCloud, it is governed by Apple's Privacy Policy and your iCloud terms.

How BloomPrint handles your identity

iMessage apps never get your real name. Inside a conversation, each participant is just an opaque, per-conversation identifier — a random token that is different in every chat and can't be matched back to a real person or a contact.

• We never display real contact names. People appear as initials or decorative letter-and-color badges only.
• Those badges are generated from the opaque token with a simple hash, purely so the same person looks consistent within a conversation. They never reveal or encode your real identity.
• We never use these identifiers to track you across different chats, across the app, or anywhere else.

Calendar and Maps

• Calendar: BloomPrint only touches your calendar when you tap "Add to Calendar." It asks for calendar access at that moment (never on launch), and the event is written on your device. We request full calendar access so that if an event's details change, re-adding it updates the same calendar entry instead of creating a duplicate — not so we can read your calendar. Nothing about your calendar is transmitted to us.
• Maps: When you search for a venue while creating an event, the text you type is sent to Apple Maps to return matching places, governed by Apple's privacy policy. We don't receive your search.

Keeping and deleting your data

BloomPrint is designed to keep a plan's history — your events, who came, and the memories you shared stay around as the group's record, rather than disappearing after the day passes.

Because none of it is stored on our servers, there is no BloomPrint account for us to delete and no copy for us to hand over. You stay in control through Apple:

• Delete the app to remove its data stored on your device.
• Manage the underlying iCloud data through your Apple ID (Settings → [your name] → iCloud / Manage Account Storage), the same place you manage all of your iCloud content.
• For a shared event, the participant who created it controls the shared copy in their iCloud, consistent with how Apple's CloudKit sharing works.

We're continuing to add more direct, in-app controls for managing and removing your events; this policy will be updated as those ship.

Third parties

The only third party involved is Apple, as the platform provider — through iMessage, iCloud/CloudKit, Maps, and the calendar. There are no other third parties, advertisers, or data brokers. Apple's handling of your data is covered by Apple's Privacy Policy.

Where your data is stored

Your information resides in Apple's iCloud infrastructure, associated with your Apple ID and its region. We don't control or choose its physical location — Apple does, per your Apple ID settings.

Children's privacy

BloomPrint is not directed to children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect personal information from children — indeed, we don't collect personal information from anyone.

Your rights

Privacy laws such as the GDPR and CCPA give you rights to access, correct, or delete personal data a company holds about you. We hold none — there is no server-side data for us to provide, correct, or erase. The information created in BloomPrint lives in your own iCloud, where your rights are exercised directly with Apple and through your device's iCloud controls.

Changes to this policy

If we update this policy, we'll post the new version here and change the effective date at the top. Significant changes will be reflected before they take effect.
