Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 2026

The Short Version

Digestible History collects no personal data, requires no account, uses no advertising, and does no tracking of any kind. Your use of the app is entirely private.

Data Collection

Digestible History does not collect, store, transmit, or share any personal information from users. This includes:

• No name, email address, or contact information
• No device identifiers or advertising IDs
• No location data
• No usage analytics or behavioral tracking
• No crash reporting that includes personal data

On-Demand Resources

The app uses Apple's On-Demand Resources (ODR) system to download image content as needed. This content is downloaded from Apple's servers — no personal data is transmitted in this process beyond what Apple's standard CDN infrastructure requires. Digestible History does not operate its own servers for this purpose.

The Front Page Feature

The Front Page section retrieves publicly available newspaper data from the Library of Congress's Chronicling America API. This is a read-only, anonymous request — no user data is sent to the Library of Congress.

Further Education Links

Tapping a Further Education link opens the destination in an in-app browser (SFSafariViewController). The destination website's own privacy policy applies once you navigate there. Digestible History does not track which links you tap.

Third-Party Services

Digestible History does not integrate any third-party analytics, advertising networks, or data brokers. There are no SDKs from Facebook, Google, or similar providers.

Children's Privacy

Digestible History does not knowingly collect any information from children or anyone else. There is simply nothing to collect.

Changes to This Policy

If this privacy policy changes, the updated version will be posted at this URL. Given the nature of the app, significant changes are unlikely.
