Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 17, 2026

1. Who We Are

Livnly is a calendar app for iOS and Mac, operated by JB CAPITAL BV, a company registered in Belgium (VAT: BE 1005.101.429). This page says what happens to your data, in the order that matters: what never leaves your device, the two places your event titles do travel, what we store, and who else touches any of it.

2. Your Calendar Stays On Your Device

Livnly is not a calendar service. It reads the calendars your device already has, through the permission you grant in iOS or macOS. Your events, and everything Livnly adds to them (colors, categories, what a block is for), live in your device's own calendar and in a database on the device itself. We do not sync your calendar to our servers and we keep no copy of your week.

Livnly never connects to Google, Microsoft or iCloud on your behalf. There is no calendar integration to authorize, because there is none. Events from those accounts show up because you linked the account in your device's own settings and the operating system synced them; Livnly only ever reads what is already there.

The other permissions work the same way. Workouts and sleep times from Apple Health, the contact photos matched to the people on an event, and your location when you tap "use current location" are all read on the device, used on the device, and never uploaded. Livnly never writes to Apple Health.

There are two exceptions, and both are things you do deliberately. Section 4: when you type a plan in words or ask Livnly to change something, that sentence and the titles of the events it needs to reason about leave your device. Section 5: when you send someone a link to a plan, that one plan is stored, so that the page you sent them has something to show.

3. What We Store

Signing in is optional in the app. When you do sign in, this is everything we hold:

  • Your account: your email address, plus your name and profile picture if you set one. Profile pictures are stored in a private file bucket, readable only by you and by us.
  • Your labels: the categories and quick-create templates you make, meaning their names, emoji and note templates, so they follow you to a new device. The labels only, never the events you put them on.
  • Plans you shared by link: when you tap Send invite, we store that one event, meaning its title, time, location and your name, plus the name you have for the person you sent it to and the answer they give. That is what the page they open is made of. Only the plans you deliberately shared, never your calendar, and we delete all of it 30 days after the event.
  • What you asked Livnly to do: if you type a plan in words or ask for a change, we store that sentence, the plan it produced, and the snapshot of events it was shown, on your account. That is what lets the answer come back to you and lets you undo it.
  • Your application: the answers you send when you apply to join, including your name, email and free-text answers.
  • Newsletter: your email address, if you subscribed. One click unsubscribes and removes it.
  • Sign-in and abuse records: that a sign-in code was sent to your email, and your IP address for a short window against the public forms so they cannot be flooded.

4. When You Type A Plan In Words

"Dinner with Sam on Thursday at 8" is read on your device first, by a parser that ships inside the app. That parser works signed out, offline, and when everything of ours is down.

When you are signed in, Livnly also asks a language model to check the reading, because a model is better at "half seven" than a rule is. Here is exactly what that request contains:

  • the sentence you typed
  • the titles and times of the events in the day or window the request is about, so it can place "right after the standup"
  • the names of your calendars and categories, your usual waking hours, and the current time
  • nothing else. Not your notes, not your guests, not your event locations, not your health data, not your contacts, not one thing about any other week.

Our provider for that call is OpenAI, through their API, which does not use it to train models. If the call fails, times out, or you are signed out, your device's own reading is used and the event is written anyway. The feature degrades; it never blocks.

5. When You Share A Plan

When you send someone a plan, they see that plan: what it is, when it is, where it is, and who invited them. They see nothing else about your week, and they need no Livnly account, no app and no sign-in to open it. Nothing is shared by default, and there is no way for anyone to see the shape of your week unless you deliberately send it to them.

Sending a link is the one moment a plan leaves your phone. We store that single event so the web page can show it, and the name you have for the person you sent it to, so the page can greet them and so their answer comes back to the right face in your app. Anyone holding the link can see the plan, so treat it like any other message: if you send it to the wrong thread, you can turn the link off from the event, which stops every copy of it working, including forwarded ones. We delete the plan and the name 30 days after the event, whether or not you turn the link off.

6. Who Else Touches Your Data

We do not sell your personal information. This is the whole list of companies involved:

  • Supabase: the database, the private file bucket, and sign-in.
  • DigitalOcean: hosting for livnly.com and our API.
  • OpenAI: reading a sentence you typed, exactly as described in section 4.
  • PostHog (EU): product analytics. Which screens get opened and which steps get finished, never your event titles.
  • Sentry: crash and error reports, so a bug on your device becomes something we can fix.
  • Resend: our email, meaning sign-in codes, replies to your application, and the newsletter.
  • Apple: Sign in with Apple. When membership billing opens, the payment itself is collected by the payment provider of the platform you subscribe on, the way the Terms describe. We never see or store your card details.
  • People you invite: the plan you chose to send them, and nothing else.

7. What We Never Do

  • We never sell your data, and we never hand it to advertisers or data brokers.
  • We run no ads, and we never read your calendar to target anything at you.
  • We never show anyone the shape of your week: not another member, not a company, not us in our own marketing.
  • Livnly is paid for by the people who use it, never by advertisers, so you are the customer. There is no second business model hiding behind the first.

8. Data Retention

What we store lives as long as your account does, and you can delete your account from inside the app, which deletes it. Your calendar is not ours to delete: it stays on your device, untouched, whether the app is there or not. A plan you shared by link is the one thing on a clock of its own: it and the invited person's name are deleted 30 days after the event, whether or not you turn the link off and whether or not you keep your account. Application answers are kept until you ask us to remove them or you become a member. Newsletter addresses go on unsubscribe. Abuse-prevention records expire on their own within a day.

9. Your Rights

Under GDPR you have the right to access, correct, export or delete your personal data, and to object to how we handle it. Email [email protected] and a person answers. You also have the right to complain to the Belgian Data Protection Authority.

This applies whether or not you use Livnly. If someone sent you a plan link, we hold your name and your answer because they invited you, and you can have both removed by writing to the same address. You do not need an account to ask, and you will not be asked to make one.

10. Security

Everything travels over encrypted connections. Each member's rows are isolated at the database level, so one account cannot read another's even through a bug in our code. Sign-in is a one-time code or Sign in with Apple; we store no passwords.

11. Changes To This Policy

If a data flow changes, this page changes with it, in the same release. We will update the "Last updated" date above, and tell members directly when the change is material.
