Privacy Policy
Last Updated: December 23, 2025
At LocalToDo, we take your privacy extremely seriously. Unlike most productivity applications, our philosophy is "Local-First," meaning your data stays where it belongs—on your device.
1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how LocalToDo ("we", "us", "our") treats your personal data. By using our website, you agree to the practices described in this policy. Our primary goal is to provide a service that requires zero personal data from you.
2. The "Local-First" Data Paradigm
Traditional apps store your data in "The Cloud." LocalToDo flips this model. When you use our tools (Task Manager, Pomodoro Timer, Habit Tracker, Quick Notes, Expense Tracker, and Daily Journal), all inputs are processed and stored using Web Storage API (LocalStorage) within your own web browser.
This means:
- Your data is never transmitted to our servers.
- We cannot see, read, or sell your tasks, journals, or expenses.
- Hackers cannot steal your data from us because we don't have it.
- Your privacy is protected by the physical and digital security of your own device.
3. Information We Do NOT Collect
We do not collect any of the following:
- Personal identifiers (Name, Email, Phone Number).
- Financial information (even in the Expense Tracker).
- Location data.
- Usage analytics or behavioral tracking.
4. Technical Logs and Hosting
While we don't collect data, our hosting provider and third-party Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) may automatically record standard technical logs when you access the site. This typically includes:
- Internet Protocol (IP) address.
- Browser type and version.
- Time and date of access.
These logs are standard across the internet and are used for maintaining server security and performance. We do not use this information for user profiling.
5. Third-Party Libraries
To provide a high-quality experience, we load the following libraries via reputable CDNs:
- Tailwind CSS: For modern, responsive styling.
- jQuery: For seamless user interface interactions.
- Font Awesome: For high-quality iconography.
These providers may have their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review them.
6. Data Retention and Deletion
Since your data is stored locally, it remains in your browser until:
- You manually delete specific entries within our tools.
- You clear your browser's "Site Data" or "Cookies and other site data".
- You uninstall your browser.
We have no way to "recover" or "restore" your data if it is deleted from your browser.
7. Children's Privacy
Because we do not collect any personal data, LocalToDo is safe for users of all ages. We do not knowingly target children under 13, nor do we store any information that would allow us to identify them.
8. Your Rights
While laws like GDPR and CCPA usually apply to data controllers, LocalToDo is unique because you are your own data controller. You have the ultimate right to access, rectify, and delete your data at any time through your browser's interface.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy to reflect changes in web technology. We will post any changes on this page. Your continued use of the site after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the new policy.
