PRIVACY POLICY

THE SHORT VERSION

TRENCH is a notes app with a board, folders, drawings and a lock, made by Lohm Lab.

TRENCH does not collect anything about you. There is no account, no ads, no analytics and no tracking. What you put into the app stays on your device.

WHAT THE APP KEEPS ON YOUR DEVICE

• Your notes, checklists, drawings, counters and images
• Your folders, tags, colors and where things sit on the board
• Your settings and the name you give yourself
• Your PIN, kept only as a scrambled check value (a hash), never as the PIN itself

All of it is saved in the app's own private storage on your device. Lohm Lab cannot see it and never receives it.

WHAT LEAVES YOUR DEVICE

Nothing, unless you send it yourself. The app does not send or receive data over the internet.

• Backup files. Settings → Backup → Export saves a file wherever you choose. It holds everything in TRENCH, including locked items, and it is not encrypted. Keep it somewhere private.
• Links. If you tap a web link inside a note, it opens in your browser, which has its own privacy rules.
• Android device backup. If you have turned on your phone's backup to your Google account, Android may include this app's data in that backup. That copy is handled by Google under your Google account, and you can turn it off in your phone's settings.

PERMISSIONS

• Camera, only when you choose to take a photo for an image note.
• Screen lock or fingerprint, only when you tap "Forgot PIN?" and confirm it's you. Your phone does the check; TRENCH never sees your fingerprint or passcode.
• Images from your gallery are picked through your phone's own picker, so the app only sees what you choose.

DELETING YOUR DATA

You can delete things inside the app at any time. Clearing the app's storage in Android settings, or uninstalling the app, removes everything it saved.

Because nothing is sent to Lohm Lab, there is nothing for us to delete on our side.

CHILDREN

TRENCH is made for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13. It collects no personal information from anyone, of any age.

CHANGES

If a later version of TRENCH changes how any of this works, this policy will be updated first and the date on it will change.
