Katalogos is a taverna-menu reader and recall deck for travellers in Crete and the Peloponnese. It runs entirely on your device. This page explains, plainly, what the app collects and what it does not.
The short version
What is stored, and where
The app keeps one local file (JSON format) in the app's Application Support folder, containing:
- Your diet and allergen profile (vegetarian, vegan, and any of the 14 EU-declared allergens you've marked)
- Dishes you've added to your order card, and the order card itself
- Dishes you've saved for the Recall deck, and your spaced-repetition progress on each
- App settings: text size, voice speed, appearance, haptics and sound toggles, and your reminder time
This file is readable only by Katalogos, is never transmitted anywhere, and is deleted automatically when you delete the app.
Data this app does not collect
| Category | Collected? |
|---|---|
| Contact information (name, email, phone) | No |
| Location | No |
| Photos, camera or microphone access | No — the app has no camera or photo features |
| Browsing or search history sent off-device | No — menu lookups happen entirely on-device |
| Identifiers, analytics or advertising data | No |
| Usage data shared with third parties | No — there is no network connection to share it over |
Our App Store "Privacy Nutrition Label" and in-app privacy manifest reflect this: no data types are collected, and no tracking domains are declared.
Notifications
If you turn on the daily recall reminder, Katalogos asks iOS for permission to schedule a local notification. This notification is created and delivered entirely on your device by iOS itself — no message passes through our servers, because we don't have any.
Text-to-speech
The speaker button in the order card uses your device's built-in Greek (el-GR) voice to read phrases aloud. This speech is generated on-device by iOS and is not recorded, stored or sent anywhere.
Children's privacy
Katalogos is a general reference tool and is not directed at children. Since the app collects no personal data from anyone, it does not knowingly collect personal data from children either.
Changes to this policy
If this policy ever changes — for example, if a future version of the app adds a feature that uses data differently — we will update this page and the in-app privacy disclosure before that version reaches you.
