Privacy

Pouch is built so that we never receive the information you put into it.

What you enter stays on your device

• Kids’ names or nicknames, chores, balances, goals and history are saved in your browser’s local storage on the device you use.
• That data is not sent to us or anyone else. Pouch has no accounts, no server database and no sync.
• A backup file you download is saved on your device. Where it goes after that is up to you.
• You can delete everything at any time in Settings, under Start over, or by clearing this site’s data in your browser.

No tracking

• Pouch doesn’t use cookies, ads, analytics scripts, social media pixels or other third-party code. The pages load no fonts, images or scripts from other companies.
• The local storage Pouch uses only holds the data you asked it to keep, which is why there’s no cookie banner.

What our hosting provider sees

Like any website, the company that serves these pages processes basic technical data, such as your IP address and browser type, to deliver them and protect against abuse. If we turn on visitor counts, we’ll use a cookieless service that doesn’t follow you across sites, and we’ll name it here first.

Children

Pouch is made for parents and guardians. Kids may look at the screen or tick a chore on a parent’s device, but Pouch doesn’t ask children for information and doesn’t send anything they enter anywhere.

If this changes

If we ever add something that stores data off your device, such as syncing between two parents’ phones, it will be optional, explained before you turn it on, and this page will be updated first.
