Your privacy,
taken seriously.

Overview

JoinIf is a soft plans app — you share what you're doing with people you actually want to hang out with. No algorithms, no ads, no noise.

What we collect

• Account info — your email address when you sign up, and the display name you choose
• Plans — plans you create and share with your circles
• Contacts — only contacts you explicitly pick one at a time. We never import your full address book
• Calendar — only if you grant permission, to check conflicts and let you add plans to your calendar
• Push tokens — a device identifier used to send you notifications about plans and friend requests
• Usage data — basic app usage to help us fix bugs and improve the experience

How we use it

• To run the JoinIf service and show you plans from your circles
• To connect you with friends you choose to add
• To send notifications when friends share plans or send friend requests
• To improve the app and fix issues

Contacts

JoinIf uses a native contact picker — you choose one person at a time. We never request access to your full address book, and we never bulk-import or scan your contacts in the background.

When you pick a contact, we check whether their email is registered on JoinIf so we can send them a friend request. We don't store phone numbers on our servers unless you explicitly add someone as a friend.

Calendar

Calendar access is fully optional. If you grant it, JoinIf can:

• Check whether you have conflicts during a plan's time
• Import existing calendar events as plan drafts
• Add plans you join to your calendar

We only read the calendars you select. We never store your calendar events on our servers.

Notifications

Push notifications are optional. We send them when:

• A friend shares a plan with one of your circles
• Someone sends you a friend request
• A friend accepts your friend request

You can disable notifications anytime in your iPhone or Android settings.

Data storage & security

Your data is stored securely using Supabase, with row-level security policies ensuring you can only access your own data. All connections use TLS encryption in transit.

We store data in US-based servers. We do not transfer your data internationally.

Your rights

• You can delete your account at any time by contacting us
• Deleting your account removes all your plans, circles, and personal data
• You can request a copy of your data at any time
• You can opt out of notifications in your device settings

Children's privacy

JoinIf is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.

Changes to this policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. When we do, we'll update the date at the top of this page. Continued use of JoinIf after changes means you accept the updated policy.
