Privacy Policy

Bring Buy Get is an errand app for iPhone and iPad. It is a Zobot application — by Zobot LLC (“we”, “us”). This page explains where your data lives, what the app touches and why, and how long anything is kept. The short version: your data stays on your devices and in your own iCloud. We operate no servers for the app, so we cannot access, read, or recover anything you put in it.

Where your data lives

Everything you create in the app — places, pins, errands, photos, notes — is stored on your device and synced through Apple’s CloudKit into the private database of your own iCloud account. If you share your household with someone, that shared data lives in the household’s iCloud, visible only to the people you invited, and moves member to member through Apple’s sharing infrastructure.

Zobot operates no servers for the app. There is no Zobot account to create, and no copy of your data ever reaches us — we could not read your lists if we wanted to. Apple’s handling of iCloud data is governed by Apple’s own privacy policy and iCloud terms.

Encryption

Everything the app stores is encrypted in transit and encrypted at rest by Apple’s iCloud security, and it is openable only by you and the people you invite to your household. Zobot cannot open any of it: there is no server of ours and no key of ours anywhere in the path.

One honest nuance. Under Apple’s standard iCloud protection, Apple holds the server-side keys that make things like account recovery possible. If you turn on Advanced Data Protection for your Apple Account (Settings → your name → iCloud), the photos attached to your errands — and this app’s data inside your device backups — become end-to-end encrypted: readable on your devices and your household’s, and by no one else, not even Apple. The rest of your list data stays under Apple’s standard iCloud encryption either way.

What the app never does

• No accounts, sign-ups, or passwords — the app uses the iCloud account already on your phone.
• No analytics or tracking SDKs in the app. Nothing phones home.
• No advertising, and no data sold, rented, or shared with data brokers — we hold no data to sell.

What the app touches, and why

Each of these is gated behind its own iOS permission. Decline any of them and the rest of the app keeps working.

• Location — powers the arrival and departure reminders. The app registers small geofences around the pins you create, and iOS wakes it when you cross one. Your location is processed on your device; at most, an arrival note (“at Costco since 2:14 PM”) is kept with your own data. No location ever reaches Zobot — there is nowhere for it to go.
• Notifications — local only. Every reminder is composed and scheduled on your device. There is no push server.
• Camera and photos — the photos you choose to attach to an errand are stored with the rest of your data: on your devices and in your iCloud.
• Face ID / Touch ID — if you turn on the optional app lock, iOS itself performs the check and tells the app only whether it passed. Biometric data is handled entirely by the operating system: the app never sees it, and it never leaves your device.

Shared and pasted product links

When you share a product into the app from another app, or paste a link, your device fetches that page’s public title and image directly from the store’s own site and stores them with your data, next to the link. Nothing about that fetch goes through Zobot.

When you open a product link from inside the app, the link may carry referral tags (UTM parameters today; standard retailer affiliate tags may be added later), which tell the store the visit came from Bring Buy Get and may earn us a commission. The tags identify the app, not you. Links routed through our redirect at go.bringbuyget.com produce only the standard, unidentifiable request counts every web server keeps — the redirect stores nothing else and sets no cookies.

The household share

Sharing your household makes every place, pin, and errand in it visible to the people you invite — including each device’s arrival notes — and edits flow both ways. Invitations, acceptance, and removal are handled by Apple’s iCloud sharing. You can stop sharing, or leave a household, at any time from inside the app or from iCloud settings.

Retention and deletion

We have nothing to retain. Because your data lives only on your devices and in your iCloud account, retention is entirely in your hands:

• Delete anything in the app — a place, an errand, a photo — and it is removed from your devices and from iCloud (and, in a shared household, from every member’s view).
• Delete everything by removing the app’s iCloud data: on your iPhone or iPad, Settings → your name → iCloud → Manage Account Storage → Bring Buy Get → Delete Data. Deleting the app from your devices removes the on-device copies.
• Leave a shared household and its shared data leaves your account.

Zobot holds no copy of your data, so there is nothing on our side to retain — and therefore nothing we could delete, hand over, or lose on your behalf. Apple’s timelines for purging deleted iCloud data and expiring device backups are governed by Apple’s iCloud terms.

The newsletter

If you subscribe at bringbuyget.com/newsletter, we store your email address and nothing else — no name, no location, no behaviour — in our own database, purely to send you that newsletter. It is never sold, rented, or shared, and it is never joined up with anything from the app, which has no account and sends us nothing.

Subscribing is double opt-in: we email you once to confirm it is really you, and nothing else is sent until you click that link. Every newsletter carries a one-click unsubscribe that keeps working indefinitely. Unsubscribing stops the mail; writing to [email protected] deletes your row outright. The mail itself is sent through Amazon SES, our email processor, from news.bringbuyget.com.

This website

bringbuyget.com is a static site. It sets no cookies of any kind, runs no analytics, and embeds no trackers. Because there are no non-essential cookies (indeed, none at all), EU ePrivacy rules require no cookie-consent banner here — which is why you didn’t see one. The site is served by Cloudflare, which as our hosting processor may see the standard access logs (IP address, request, time) that serving any website entails.

Changes

If our data practices ever change materially — say, the app gains an optional online feature — this page will change with them, and the effective date above will move.
