Privacy Policy — Ripply (ContractionTimer)

Last updated: 2026-05-28

1. Summary

Ripply collects no personal data. All information you enter stays exclusively on your device.

2. Data collected

No data is collected, transmitted or shared.

The Ripply application only records:

  • Start and end timestamps of each contraction (date, time)
  • Computed duration of each contraction
  • Your interface preferences (theme, vibrations, keep-screen-on)

This data is stored locally on your iPhone via SwiftData (SQLite encrypted by iOS). It is never sent to an external server, shared with third parties, or used for analytics or advertising purposes.

3. Health data

Contraction data constitutes sensitive health data under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). As such:

  • It is protected by iOS system encryption (NSFileProtectionComplete) and stays inside the App's sandbox.
  • It never leaves your device unless you explicitly use the export feature (manual sharing by you with your midwife or doctor).
  • Uninstalling the App permanently erases all data.

4. Third-party services

Ripply contains no third-party SDK, no analytics, no advertising tracker, no network integration. Zero outbound connection.

5. Children

The App is not intended for children under 13 and collects no data.

6. Your rights (GDPR)

Since all data is stored locally on your device and no data is transmitted to our infrastructure, we hold no data about you. You exercise your rights of access, rectification and erasure directly from the App (history) or by uninstalling the App.

7. Medical disclaimer

Ripply is not a medical device. The App is a memory aid for tracking contraction rhythm and in no way replaces the advice, follow-up or recommendations of a healthcare professional (midwife, doctor, obstetrician).

In case of doubt, emergency or complication, immediately contact your maternity unit or call your local emergency number (in France: 15 — SAMU).

8. Contact
