Data we do not collect

No cloud account, ads, or analytics.

Little Spud does not operate a Little Spud cloud account service, advertising system, analytics service, or third-party tracking system.

On-device storage

Settings stay on your device.

Little Spud stores app settings on your device, including preferences such as notification and TTS settings. Pairing tokens for your Tater instance are stored in the iOS Keychain. Recent chat messages may be stored locally so the app can show conversation history.

Your Tater

Messages go to the Tater URLs you configure.

When you pair Little Spud with Tater, the app sends messages directly to the Tater URLs you configure. Depending on what you choose to do in the app, this may include chat text, voice input audio, voice transcripts, selected media, device name, user name, and app status information needed for pairing, notifications, and sync.

This data is sent to your configured Tater instance, not to a Little Spud cloud service.
