Privacy Policy

Data Not Collected

Last updated: 30 September 2026

The short version: DoseBell does not send medication records to a server operated by us or to analytics or advertising services. Your medication information stays on your device and in your personal iCloud account. We have no servers, no analytics, and no way to see your data.

What data does DoseBell store?

DoseBell stores the following information to provide its functionality:

• Medication names, dosages, and schedules you create
• Dose history (taken, skipped, or missed)
• Refill tracking information
• App preferences and settings

Where is this data stored?

All data is stored in two places:

• On your device: In the app's local database, protected by iOS security.
• In your iCloud: If you have iCloud enabled, your data syncs to your personal iCloud account using Apple's CloudKit private database. Medication fields use CloudKit field-level encryption. iCloud end-to-end protection depends on your Apple settings, including Advanced Data Protection. DoseBell does not operate a medication-data server.

What data do we collect?

None. We do not:

• Require you to create an account
• Collect analytics or usage data
• Use any third-party tracking SDKs
• Store any data on our servers (we have no servers)
• Sell or share any information with third parties

Caregiver Alerts (Pro feature)

If you enable Caregiver Alerts, DoseBell publishes minimal "status beacon" records to a shared CloudKit zone that your designated caregiver can access. These records contain only:

• Whether a dose was taken, skipped, or missed
• The timestamp
• Dose identifiers and times, profile display name, and medication names only if you opt in
• Today’s progress, weekly adherence, and your selected alert rule

You control exactly what is shared, and you can revoke access at any time. These updates are stored in a separate shared CloudKit zone hosted by Apple. They are not stored on a server operated by DoseBell. Your full medication database is never shared.

Pharmacy Label Scanning

If you use the label scanning feature to add medications, all text recognition happens entirely on your device using Apple's Vision framework. No images or text are transmitted anywhere.

App Store Privacy Label

DoseBell has no analytics or advertising SDKs. Medication records are stored on your devices and, when available, in your iCloud. Information you voluntarily email to support is received by our support mailbox and used to respond to your request.

Third-Party Services

DoseBell uses the following Apple services:

• CloudKit: For optional iCloud sync (your private database)
• StoreKit: For in-app purchases (handled entirely by Apple)

We do not integrate any third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking services.

Data Deletion

You can delete all your data at any time by:

• Deleting the app from your device
• Going to Settings → Apple ID → iCloud → Manage Storage → DoseBell and deleting the data

Changes to This Policy

If we ever change this privacy policy, we will update this page and the "last updated" date. Given our fundamental commitment to privacy, we do not anticipate material changes.
