Winnowed

Privacy

Effective April 24, 2026

Winnowed is designed around a simple principle: your subscription data belongs to you. Here's what that means in practice.

What we collect

Nothing.

Winnowed does not collect, store, transmit, or share any personal information. Everything you enter — subscription names, costs, review decisions, notes, receipts you scan — stays on your device. It never leaves.

What we don't do

  • No accounts. No sign-in. No email address required to use the app.
  • No analytics. No tracking. No telemetry.
  • No cloud sync. No remote backups. No servers of any kind.
  • No third-party SDKs for advertising, analytics, or tracking.
  • No data shared with anyone. Ever.

Receipt scanning

When you scan a statement or receipt, Winnowed uses Apple's on-device Vision framework to extract text. Images and text are processed entirely on your device. Nothing is sent to a server — not a Winnowed server, not an Apple server, not any server.

iCloud backup

Your device's standard iCloud backup — if you have it enabled in your iOS Settings — may include Winnowed's data, the same as any other app. This backup is controlled by Apple, encrypted in transit and at rest, and subject to Apple's privacy policy. Winnowed has no access to it.

This website

winnowed.app uses Plausible, a privacy-preserving analytics service that does not use cookies and does not collect any personal data or cross-site identifiers. All data is aggregate and anonymous. No personal information is ever recorded.

Changes

If this policy ever changes, the new version will be posted here and the effective date above will change. No silent updates.
