Privacy Policy
Quill & Cradle helps caregivers track a baby's feeds, sleep, diapers, medications, milestones, and growth. This policy explains what we collect and how it's handled.
What we collect
- Account information: your email address (or Apple ID credential) and a random account identifier, used solely to sign you in.
- Care records you enter: feeding, sleep, and diaper logs; medication names, schedules, and dose history (for your baby and, if you choose, for yourself); milestones and growth measurements; your child's name and date of birth; household and caregiver membership.
- Device push token: if you enable notifications, an anonymous Apple push token so the service can deliver reminders and caregiver updates.
We do not collect advertising identifiers, location, contacts, photos, or analytics profiles. We do not use third-party advertising or tracking SDKs.
About your child's information
You, the adult account holder, enter and control all information about your child. Children do not use Quill & Cradle themselves and no information is collected from a child. Records about your child are visible only to the caregivers you explicitly invite to your household.
Where data lives
Care records are stored with our hosting provider (Supabase, Postgres, hosted in the region selected at account creation) encrypted in transit and at rest, and cached on your devices so the app works offline. Access is enforced server-side per household membership: only caregivers in your household can read your family's records.
Sharing
We do not sell data and we have no advertising partners or cross-app tracking. Data leaves the service only when you export it yourself, for example a pediatrician report you generate and share.
Notifications
Medication reminders are scheduled on your device. If push notifications are enabled, our server sends caregiver-activity and reminder notifications through Apple's push service using your anonymous device token.
Deletion and your rights
- Delete account (Settings → Delete account) permanently removes your account and every household only you belong to, including all its care records. Shared households remain with the other caregivers.
- You can export your data at any time (Settings → Export).
- Questions or requests: elson@thebytequill.com.
Medical disclaimer
Quill & Cradle is a record keeping tool and is not a medical device. Schedule suggestions are generic defaults and are not medical advice. Always verify dosage and timing with your healthcare professional.
Changes
We'll update this document and the effective date if our practices change.
