This policy explains what Shelf-ish collects, what it does not collect, and how privacy-related questions or requests are handled.
Shelf-ish stores the clips you save in the app, which may include text, links, files, screenshots, images, locations, email addresses, phone numbers, audio notes, code snippets, tags, and related metadata such as timestamps.
Your saved content is used to provide the app’s core features, such as capture, search, previews, tagging, sync, and optional intelligence features like summaries, transcripts, or code assistance.
Shelf-ish does not use third-party analytics, does not build advertising profiles, does not sell personal information, and does not require a separate Shelf-ish account to use the app.
If iCloud sync is enabled and available, Shelf-ish may store or sync user content using Apple’s CloudKit services. Apple may process data as required to provide those services under Apple’s own terms and privacy policies.
When you preview a link, the app may request metadata or preview images from the linked site or related services. Optional model downloads may also occur when needed for features such as image analysis or transcription support.
Shelf-ish is designed to use on-device intelligence where the required system capabilities are available. If that changes in a future version, this policy will be updated to reflect it clearly.
Clips may expire automatically based on the user’s settings unless they are pinned or otherwise kept. Users can also delete clips manually at any time. If CloudKit sync is enabled, deletion may take time to propagate across devices.
Because clips may contain sensitive information, Shelf-ish includes features intended to conceal certain content until the user chooses to reveal it. Users should still take care when deciding what to save.
Shelf-ish is not directed to children, and the app is not designed to knowingly collect personal information from children. If that ever changes, this policy will be updated.
If you have questions about privacy or want to make a privacy-related request, contact shelfishapp@gmail.com.
