PrompTugal for iOS

Privacy · PrompTugal app

The app collects no data

PrompTugal: Lisbon Summit 0.4.106 has no account, no analytics, no advertising, no tracking and no third-party SDKs. Nothing you pick, type or set leaves your phone. On the App Store its privacy label reads Data Not Collected. This page explains what the app keeps on your device and the one thing it does on the network.

What stays on your device

  • Your picks, your program and your settings, in the app’s private storage.
  • A saved copy of the agenda and the news, so the app works with no signal. A copy of the agenda is also built into the app for the first launch.
  • Reminders. They are local notifications, scheduled on the device. Nothing is sent to a push server. The app asks for notification permission the first time you pick a talk, or when you turn reminders on in Settings → Reminders, never before.
  • The Home Screen widget and the Siri and Shortcuts answers. The app keeps a small copy of what is on now and next (session titles, rooms, times, and whether you picked the session) in storage shared only with its own widget and Siri extension on this device. They read that copy and do not use the network.

Deleting the app removes all of it from the device.

What the app does on the network

Public agenda and news
The app downloads the public agenda, news and graph from promptugal.news, and refreshes them now and then in the background. These are plain reads of public files, without cookies and without any identifier: nothing about you is sent. This is the only server the app talks to.
Pages from promptugal.news
Some talks and stories open as pages from promptugal.news inside the app. Links to any other website open in Safari, under that site’s own privacy policy.
Calendar
“Add to Calendar” writes a session to your calendar, only when you ask, with write-only access. The app cannot read your calendar.

What the app never does

  • No account, no tracking, no analytics, no advertising, and no third-party SDKs: the app uses Apple’s frameworks only.
  • It does not send your picks, notes or settings anywhere, and it has no server of its own that collects data about you.
  • It does not use the camera, microphone, Face ID, location, contacts or photos, and it does not read your calendar.
  • It does not sell or share data, and it does not follow you across other apps or websites.

The team’s own app

The PrompTugal team also has an app of its own, for its people, its agents and its messages, with features such as an AI assistant and an encrypted vault. It is a different app with a different bundle identifier, and it is not in the App Store. Its privacy page is in the developer area. None of those features are in this app.

The beta

The beta is installed through TestFlight. Apple then shares your email address, device model, OS version and any feedback or crash reports you choose to send with the team. Apple’s TestFlight privacy notice has the details. Older beta builds may still include features that the App Store version does not have.

Checking this, and questions

The whole app is open source on GitHub. In the app, this page and the support page are linked from Settings → About. Questions about privacy: see Contact.
