Your privacy

Circled is a shared calendar for friends. Here’s what we promise, what’s up to you, exactly what we keep, and who else handles it.

What we promise

Who sees each plan. People you hide it from get "Busy" at most, and the details never reach their phone.
Your boundaries, like work. Friends only see that you’re busy then, never what it is.
Your phone number. It's optional, and we only keep a scrambled version and the last four digits.
Your contacts. They're checked once and never saved, and nobody hears from us.
Your phone's calendars. If you connect them, only the times leave your phone, never an event's name, place or notes, and you choose who sees Busy.
Notifications. Reminders and nudges are set up on your phone, and you can turn them off in Settings.
Your account. Deleting it removes you, your photo, your plans and your messages.

Your plans and messages are stored on our server so your friends can see them. They aren't end-to-end encrypted.
Anyone with your invite link can see your name and photo. Anyone with a plan's link can see that plan, until you turn the link off.
Anyone with your calendar link can see the plans you're going to, until you turn it off.
Notifications about invites, changes and chat pass through Expo and then Apple or Google to reach your phone, including the plan's name and the message.

Your account: your name, username, colour, photo if you add one, and your password, scrambled so nobody can read it.
Your plans, replies, messages and polls, and the days, parts of days and boundaries you share.
Your friends, groups, requests and blocks.
The email address or phone number you sign up with, scrambled so it can only be checked, not read. For a phone number, its last four digits too.
If you add a phone number later, the same: a scrambled version and its last four digits.
If you connect your phone’s calendars, the start and end times of events. Never their names, places or notes.
If you allow notifications, the address your phone gives us for them, until you log out.
If you subscribe to your calendar link, the private code in that link, until you turn it off.
If someone replies to a shared plan without an account, the name they give and their answer.
If you report someone, your report and a copy of what you reported, so it can still be checked if it’s deleted.

Your contacts. They’re checked once to find friends and thrown away.
Your location, advertising identifiers or anything about how you use other apps.
Analytics about what you tap. There’s no analytics or advertising code in the app.

Our hosting provider, currently Railway, which runs the server and stores what’s listed above.
Expo, and then Apple or Google, which deliver notifications to your phone.
A text message or email service, which sends the codes that check your phone number or email address. It gets the number or address and the code, nothing more.
Nobody else. We don’t sell your data or share it for advertising.

Everything stays while you have an account, so your calendar and chats are there when you come back.
Deleting your account in Settings removes you and everything above that belongs to you, straight away.
Turning off calendar sharing or your calendar link removes what it sent.
A device you’re logged in on is logged out after 90 days without use.
Codes that check your email or phone number stop working after 10 minutes.

You can report anyone, or any message, from inside the app. Every report is read by a person, and someone who breaks the rules can be removed from the app.

When this page changes, so does the date at the top. If a change affects what we promise, we’ll tell you in the app.
