Overview
Unpile is made by Kalpiko Labs, a one-person indie app studio. This policy explains how Unpile handles your information. It applies only to the Unpile mobile app for iOS and Android — not to any other app or website.
Unpile is a productivity and focus tool. It is not a medical or health app: it does not diagnose, treat, or make clinical claims about any condition.
If you have any questions, email us at support@kalpikolabs.com.
Data we collect
Unpile has no accounts and no login. We collect no personal data for ourselves. Your photos, your missions, your XP, and all of your progress are stored only on your device. There is no analytics, no advertising, and we do not track you across apps or use advertising identifiers. Unpile shows no ads.
Only one thing ever leaves your device: the pile photo you choose to analyze. It is sent once per pile to our AI provider so the app can break the task into missions, and nothing else — no accounts, no profile, no other data — is transmitted. This is described in the next section. Everything else stays on your phone.
The AI mission breakdown
To turn a messy pile into 4–6 small missions, the single pile photo you choose — together with a short text prompt — is sent once per pile to an AI service provided by Anthropic (the Claude API). The service returns a list of missions, which is stored only on your device. Nothing else from the app is sent.
We ask for your consent in the app before the first photo is ever sent. The analysis only runs when you choose to snap and break down a pile; nothing is sent in the background.
Retention: the photo and the returned missions are not retained server-side beyond the provider's short processing window — Anthropic auto-deletes API inputs and outputs within 30 days — and they are never used to train AI.
Data sharing & third parties
Other than sending each pile photo once to our AI provider (Anthropic) to generate the missions you requested, we do not share your data with anyone. Unpile contains no third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking SDKs, and no cross-app tracking or advertising identifiers.
Data retention & deletion
Your data lives on your device only. Uninstalling Unpile removes everything. Inside the app you can also clear it all at any time: Settings → “Clear all data”. Provider-side copies of an analyzed photo auto-expire within the provider's short window (within 30 days).
Permissions used
Unpile requests only the permissions it needs, and only when a feature requires them. The purpose strings below mirror what you see in the app:
- Camera — to photograph the pile you want to tackle.
- Photos / media — handled through the system picker, so you can take a new photo or optionally pick an existing one. Unpile does not request broad access to your photo library.
- Notifications — for gentle, optional reminders; never naggy.
Unpile does not use your location. If you decline a permission, the related feature is simply unavailable; the rest of the app keeps working.
Children
Unpile is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect any information from children. It is a standard productivity utility — not a health, finance, or kids app.
Changes to this policy
If we change how Unpile handles data, we will update this page and revise the “Last updated” date above. Significant changes will also be noted in the app.
