The short version: Steady Heroes doesn't collect your data. Everything you enter — hero names, routines, calm breaks, allowance — stays on that one device. There's no account, no server, and nothing to leak.
Steady Heroes is built to work entirely on your device. The table below covers everything the app stores, and where it goes.
| Data | Where it's stored |
|---|---|
| Hero's name & birthday (optional) | On this device only |
| Steps, routines & streaks | On this device only |
| Calm break usage | On this device only |
| Star rewards & reward menu | On this device only |
| Cash allowance & payout history (optional) | On this device only |
| Face ID / Touch ID | Never leaves iOS |
| Name, email, contacts, location | Not collected |
| Analytics or advertising data | Not collected |
If you turn it on in Settings, Steady Heroes can ask iOS to check Face ID or Touch ID before a parent confirms a completed step. That check happens entirely inside iOS's own Secure Enclave — the app only ever receives a yes or no. We never see, store, or have access to any biometric data.
Steady Heroes can send one gentle daily reminder that today's steps are waiting. It's scheduled locally by iOS on your device, isn't routed through any server we operate, and no notification content is sent anywhere.
Steady Heroes is a routine-and-calm-break support tool that a parent or guardian sets up and manages for their family, including any children who use it. We built it with children's privacy as a first principle, in line with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), the EU's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and the App Store's Kids guidelines:
Because no data ever leaves the device, there is nothing for us to disclose to, or delete on request from, any third party — deleting a hero or the app itself is immediate and complete. If you have questions about how Steady Heroes handles a child's information, contact us using the details in Section 08.
You're always in control. Remove a hero at any time from Settings → Remove Hero to erase their routines, calm-break history, and rewards. Deleting the app removes everything else immediately, since nothing is kept anywhere but your device.
If this policy ever changes — for instance, if a future update adds an optional online feature — we'll update the effective date above and describe the change here before it applies.
