AlterEgo Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 14, 2026

This page is the AlterEgo-specific privacy policy for App Store Review and in-app Privacy Policy buttons. It matches the studio policy at https://smorgiapps.com/privacy/. If a detail here and the studio page ever disagree, email us and we will fix the pages. Do not treat a shorter sentence as a wider permission.

Controller: Pinewood Creations LLC (“Smorgi Apps”). Contact: hello@smorgiapps.com.

No account

AlterEgo does not create an account. You do not sign in.

No keystroke logging

The keyboard does not log or upload keystrokes as you type. Everyday typing stays on the device.

Data that leaves the device

These are the only AlterEgo data flows that leave the iPhone:

  1. Text you submit for Rewrite, Reply, or Pro grammar. That selected text is sent over HTTPS to AWS API Gateway, then our keyboard-ai-proxy, then a model provider, so we can return a rewrite. We do not send the rest of what you typed in the host app.
  2. A random device identifier used for free-tier rate limits and abuse prevention.
  3. Apple purchase and subscription status via StoreKit, so the app can unlock Pro and restore purchases. Apple bills you. We do not receive your card number.

Full Access is an iOS permission. iOS shows it because the keyboard replaces text in the host app and makes that network call. It is not a license to upload your typing stream.

Data that stays on the device

Rewrite history, favorites, custom voices, skin choice, intensity, and mix partner live in an App Group on your iPhone. They are not uploaded as a backup.

What we do not do

  • We do not sell this data.
  • We do not use it for ads.
  • We do not use rewrite text to train public models.

Retention

Proxy traffic is not kept as a user message archive. On-device data is deleted when you delete the app.

Your rights

Email hello@smorgiapps.com to ask what we hold or to request deletion of anything that is not already on-device only. We aim to respond within 30 days. Because there is no account, deleting the app is how you clear history, favorites, custom voices, skin, and intensity.

Children

AlterEgo is not directed at children under 13.

Purchases

Subscriptions are Apple In-App Purchases only. Refunds go through Apple. Apple’s Licensed Application End User License Agreement also applies: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/.
