Privacy Policy
Last updated: 2026-09-05
This policy explains how gollog handles personal information for life logging, on-device AI and optional connected features.
1. Information used by the app
gollog stores the activity logs, tasks, notes and conversations you create. With your permission, it can read Apple Health data, calendar events and location, and use the microphone and speech recognition. Device context such as charging status or a configured Wi-Fi network can support automations. Optional integrations work only after you enable them. You do not need a gollog account for core logging.
2. On-device AI and voice
AI generation uses Apple Intelligence on compatible devices when the required system features are available. Your messages and the app context used for AI are processed on the device. The app does not send them to external AI providers, use a cloud AI fallback, or accept a user-supplied AI API key. Voice input uses Apple Speech with on-device recognition; if on-device recognition is unavailable, voice input is unavailable. Spoken responses use Apple speech synthesis. AI output can be inaccurate and is not medical advice.
3. Apple Health
HealthKit access is optional. With separate permission, the app can also save selected mood entries to Apple Health. Health data is used for activity, sleep and wellbeing features and local AI context. It is not used for advertising, tracking or data brokerage and is not sold. Raw HealthKit records are not uploaded by the app to an AI service. Activity entries derived from health data may form part of your records; consider this when enabling synchronization or exporting records.
4. Location and weather
Location can add place context to your records and support automations. Background location requires the corresponding system permission. Weather requests send latitude and longitude or a searched city name to Open-Meteo; the service also receives network information such as your IP address. You can disable location access in system settings. Location is not used for advertising or cross-app tracking. Optional public-holiday requests send the selected country and year to Google Calendar; Google also receives network information. Personal calendar events are not sent for this lookup.
5. Optional synchronization and connected services
When you enable iCloud synchronization, supported app records are stored in your private Apple iCloud account and synchronized across your devices. This is separate from on-device AI. Apple processes purchases and subscription transactions through StoreKit. If you connect Google Home, Google sign-in and your granted permissions let the app access selected homes, rooms, device states and device commands through Google services. Google may process account and device information under its own privacy policy. Disconnect the integration or revoke access in your Google account to stop it. User-initiated sharing or exports send the content you choose to the destination you select.
6. Storage and deletion
App records are stored locally and, if enabled, synchronized with iCloud. Deleting the app removes its local app data but may not remove iCloud copies, backups, exports or Keychain items. Use the app’s deletion controls and your Apple account storage settings to manage those copies. Temporary voice files are removed after processing. Credentials for optional integrations may be stored securely in the Keychain; credentials left by older versions are not used to enable external AI. Records are retained until you delete them or remove the relevant storage copies.
7. Purposes and sharing
Data is used to provide logging, personal insights, reminders, automations and the optional services described above. We do not sell personal data or use app content for third-party advertising or cross-app tracking. The app does not upload your logs to a developer-operated AI analysis server. Contacting support voluntarily shares the message and attachments you send with us; avoid including sensitive records unless needed.
8. Your choices and contact
You can view and delete records in the app and revoke Health, Location, Calendar, Microphone, Speech Recognition and Notification permissions in system settings. You can manage iCloud synchronization and disconnect connected services separately. For privacy questions or requests, contact [email protected].
9. Website, children and policy changes
This policy describes the current app. The gollog.app website may use Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity after consent; these website tools do not operate inside the app. See the Cookie Policy. The app is not intended for children under 14. We publish policy changes here with the updated date.
