Privacy

Tend is a companion for the first year with a baby, and for the parent. This page says what it stores, where that lives, and who can see it. The short version: everything stays on your device, and today nothing is sent anywhere.

What Tend stores

About your baby: name, birth date, due date, how your baby is fed, feed, sleep and nappy logs, milestone dates, which activities you have tried, and your list of questions for the pediatrician.

About you: your daily check-ins, recovery notes, your sleep, and the small good things you mark for yourself. The postpartum screening does not store your answers at all. It keeps only the date you last took it, so it does not ask again too soon.

Where it lives

On your device. On a phone, in a database inside the app. In a browser, in that browser's own storage on that device. If you clear the browser's site data, it is gone.

What leaves your device

Today, nothing. Tend has no account and no sign-in, and it does not ask for your email. It uploads nothing.

A future version will let you share your baby's data with a partner. That code exists but is not turned on. When that feature is turned on, your baby's data will sync to a server run by Neon in the United States (the us-east-2 region). Your own check-ins, notes, sleep and good things will not. There is no place for them on the server, on purpose, and the app refuses to send them.

Tracking

None. No analytics, no advertising kit, no crash reporting and no cookies, in the app or on this website. Nothing is sold, and nothing is shared with anyone. The website is hosted by Netlify and loads nothing from any other company.

Deleting

Settings has Delete everything. It removes the database on your device. There is nothing on a server to delete today. When sharing is turned on, this page will say how what was shared gets deleted too.

Who Tend is for

Adults: parents, and the people who care for a baby with them. Tend holds information about a baby because a parent typed it in. It is not made for children to use, and it is not a service directed at children under COPPA.

Tend is not a doctor's office, a hospital or an insurer, and it is not a covered entity under HIPAA.

Changes

If this page changes, the date at the top changes. Nothing starts leaving your device without this page saying so first.
