The Nice List

Privacy Policy

Effective date: June 3, 2026

The short version: we collect nothing.

The Nice List is designed to be private by default. The app does not collect, transmit, sell, or share any personal information. There are no accounts, no sign-ups, no servers, no analytics, no advertising, and no third-party tracking. Everything you enter stays on your own device.

Information we collect

None. The Nice List does not collect any personal information about you. We do not ask you to create an account, and we do not have a server that receives your data.

Information stored on your device

The lists you create — the people you're shopping for, gift ideas, budgets, statuses, and your personal wishlist — are stored locally on your device only. This information never leaves your device, is never sent to us or anyone else, and is not accessible to us. If you delete an item within the app or uninstall the app, that information is permanently removed.

Gift-idea ("Find it") links

The app includes an optional "Find it" / Gift Ideas feature. When you tap one of these links, your device's web browser opens an Amazon search. As an Amazon Associate, The Nice List may earn a commission from qualifying purchases made through these links, at no extra cost to you. We do not receive any personal information about you, your searches, or your purchases through this feature. Once you leave the app and visit Amazon (or any other site), that site's own privacy policy governs how it handles your information.

Permissions

The Nice List does not request access to your contacts, location, camera, microphone, photos, or other sensitive device data.

Children's privacy

The Nice List is not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone — including children. Because the app collects no data at all, no personal information from any user is gathered.

Data retention and deletion

Because your information is stored only on your device, you are always in control of it. You can remove individual items at any time within the app, or delete everything by uninstalling the app.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, we will post the updated version on this page and revise the effective date above.
