Privacy Policy

Last updated: 16 September 2026

App: Vesper: Night Journal

The short version

We never see what you write. There is no account, and no server of ours holds your journal. We collect anonymous usage stats and crash reports to improve the app. They never include your entries or photos.

What stays on your device

What we collect

We use Mixpanel, Inc. for anonymous usage analytics, to see how the app is used and what to improve. This includes:

We do not collect your name, email, contacts, precise location or advertising identifier. We do not sell your data, and we do not use it for advertising.

Mixpanel processes this data for us. See Mixpanel's privacy policy at mixpanel.com/legal/privacy-policy.

We also collect crash reports through Firebase Crashlytics (Google LLC). A crash report describes the app at the moment it stopped: device model, iOS version, app version and a technical trace, with a random installation identifier. It never includes anything you wrote or photographed. See Google's privacy policy and Firebase's privacy information.

Purchases

Vesper Plus is sold through Apple's In-App Purchase. Apple handles the payment and tells the app whether you have bought it. We never see your payment details.

Keeping and deleting data

We don't keep your journal at all. Deleting the app removes the entries on your device. If sync was on, you can delete the synced copy in your iCloud storage settings.

Usage stats and crash reports are kept for as long as they help us make decisions about the app. They are stored under random identifiers and are not linked to you, so we cannot find one person's records on request. Deleting the app stops any further collection.

Children

Vesper is rated 4+ on the App Store, because there is nothing in it a child should not see. That is a content rating, not an invitation: Vesper is not made for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect data from them.

Changes

If this policy changes, the new version will be on this page, with the date at the top updated.
