Yore Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 18, 2026

Yore is built as a local-first personal media tracker. The main library data, logs, diary entries, categories, collections, franchises, and most app state live on your device by default.

What data the app stores

The app stores media items, progress logs, ratings, diary notes, category preferences, and related structured metadata in a local SQLite database and local preference storage on your device.

When external services are contacted

External requests happen when you choose to search for or import metadata. Those lookups currently rely on public services such as TVmaze, Jikan, Open Library, iTunes, and Wikidata. Imported metadata is then stored as part of your local item data.

Optional iCloud sync

If you enable iCloud sync in Settings, Yore can save your library data and diary images to your private iCloud/CloudKit database so your data can sync between your devices. iCloud sync is optional and the app remains usable when it is off.

Diagnostics and purchases

Yore uses Sentry only to investigate crashes and errors. When one occurs, Sentry receives technical diagnostic information such as the error and stack trace, app version, device model, and operating system version. It is configured not to collect your IP address. Yore does not send feature-usage or product-interaction events to Sentry. If you purchase or restore Full Access, Apple and RevenueCat process purchase and entitlement information so the app can provide the upgrade. These services are not used for advertising or behavioral profiling.

What Yore does not require

The core app does not depend on a mandatory account just to maintain your personal media history. It is not built around public posting or a social activity feed.

Website analytics

The Yore website loads an analytics script from analytics.montalesi.dev to measure website usage. This website analytics is separate from the app and does not receive your media library, logs, or diary entries.

Contact and updates

Questions about this policy can be sent to contact@montalesi.dev. This policy will be updated when Yore's data handling changes.
