Privacy

Effective October 24, 2026

forv is built to keep what you write on your iPhone. There are no accounts, no ads and no tracking.

What stays on your iPhone

Your affirmations, sessions, recordings, images, reminders and progress are stored on your device. When you recite, forv listens with Apple's on-device speech recognition; your voice is not sent anywhere. On iPhones with Apple Intelligence, the on-device AI features run entirely on your device.

What is sent, and only when you ask

forv Plus features use outside AI services. Before the first one runs, forv asks for your permission. After that, content is sent only for the feature you use:

• OpenAI receives the topic or affirmation text you ask it to write from, the scene you describe for an image, and any reference photos you choose to include.
• ElevenLabs receives the text to be spoken in a voice.

These requests pass through forv's server, which adds our service keys and forwards them. The server does not store your text, photos or audio. OpenAI and ElevenLabs process the content under their own API terms and privacy policies (OpenAI, ElevenLabs), and may keep it for a limited time, for example for abuse monitoring.

What our server keeps

To enforce the monthly limits of forv Plus, the server counts how many images, voice characters and writing requests you've used this month. The count is tied to an anonymous transaction number from Apple, not to your name, Apple ID or email, and is deleted within 40 days. Server logs record only the time, the kind of request and whether it succeeded.

Your choices, retention and deletion

• Turn off AI sharing at any time in forv's Settings (forv Plus → Share with AI services). Nothing more is sent to OpenAI or ElevenLabs until you turn it back on.
• Everything on your iPhone is deleted when you delete the app. You can export your sessions and audio first from Settings.
• Usage counts on our server are deleted automatically within 40 days. To have them deleted sooner, email us with the date of your purchase and we'll remove them.
• Content sent to OpenAI or ElevenLabs is kept by them only as their policies describe; we don't store it.

Purchases

Subscriptions are handled by Apple. We never see your payment details. Apple's privacy policy covers that information.

Children

forv is not directed to children under 13.

Changes and contact

If this policy changes, we'll update the date above. Questions: support@forv.app.
