SteepAtlas · Version 1.0.0

Your tea journal stays with you

SteepAtlas is an offline tea library, infusion timer and tasting journal. Version 1.0.0 does not require an account and does not send tea names, recipes, notes, ratings or timer activity to us. We do not collect personal data through the app, use advertising or analytics SDKs, or track you.

Local storage and control

Your tea library, recipes, tasting entries and active timer are stored in a JSON file in the app’s private storage on your iPhone. The app restores a timer from its saved deadline; it does not record continuous background activity. You can edit and delete entries, remove sample tastings, export a JSON backup, import a valid backup, or erase all local data in More. Erasing data does not delete copies you previously exported. Removing the app removes its local data; copies may remain in device backups according to your Apple settings.

Choices you initiate

Exporting opens the system file picker. A destination or service you choose may receive the exported content under its own terms. Import only backups you trust. If you email support, your email provider sends your address and the content you include. Do not send sensitive personal information in tasting notes or support requests.

Permissions and network

This version does not request camera, microphone, photos or location access. It has no embedded third-party advertising, tracking, payment or analytics SDKs. Local legal pages work offline. Opening an online policy or support page uses your browser and Cloudflare Pages hosting, which may process standard network information such as IP address and request logs to deliver and secure the page. Those website requests do not include your tea journal.

Retention and children

We operate no remote journal database, so remote journal retention is not applicable. Local data stays until you delete it. The app is a general tea tool intended for users aged 13 and above; this policy does not set the App Store content rating. We do not knowingly solicit children’s personal information.
