Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 2, 2026
The short version: Little Greenhouse runs entirely on your device. There's no account, no server, and nothing is sent anywhere by default. What you track stays with you.
What the app tracks
Depending on how you use it, the app can store: menstrual cycle data, pregnancy, postpartum, and perimenopause tracking, food, liquids, sleep, and activity logs, notes and diary entries, sexual activity, neurodivergence-related tracking (including sensory, masking, burnout, and condition-specific fields), medication and appointment records, weight and blood pressure, and a short mental wellbeing check-in (PHQ-2, a standard screening questionnaire — this is not a diagnosis and does not replace a conversation with a doctor).
Where that data lives
All of it stays in local storage on your device. The app does not create a user account, does not run analytics, does not serve ads, and does not transmit your tracked data to us or to any third party. We cannot see your data — there is nowhere for us to see it.
Backups
You can optionally create an encrypted backup, protected by a password you set yourself. Where that backup is saved — your device's storage, an SD card, or a cloud-synced folder you choose — is entirely your decision. We do not host, receive, or have access to these backups. See the exact encryption behind it.
Sharing with a partner
The app has an optional feature to share a limited, specific slice of data — your current cycle day, phase, and next predicted period — nothing else — with a partner, via an encrypted file you create yourself and a code you choose. This is a static export, not a live sync: it reflects a single moment, not an ongoing connection, and it never passes through our servers, because we don't have any. Full detail on the For Partners page.
Because there's no live connection, a file you've already shared can't be remotely revoked once it's in someone else's hands — there's simply nothing to switch off. You stay in control of what happens going forward: you decide whether to create another export, and only the specific fields listed above are ever included, never your full data.
Subscription & payment
Subscriptions are handled entirely by Google Play Billing. We never see your card number, billing address, or any other payment detail — that relationship is between you and Google. We only know whether a subscription is currently active, which Google Play tells the app directly.
Your rights
Because everything is stored locally, you are always in direct control of your own data: deleting the app deletes everything it stored. If you're in the EU, you also have rights under GDPR regarding any data you do choose to share (such as with a partner, or in a backup you store elsewhere) — since we never receive or hold that data ourselves, exercising those rights is primarily a matter of managing your own device and backups. For the website itself — not the app — see our GDPR page.
Children
Little Greenhouse is not directed at, or intended for use by, children.
