Public beta privacy notice. Effective July 3, 2026.
Privacy
Last drafted: July 2, 2026
The whole policy in one sentence: your binder never leaves your device. KitKept has no accounts, no cloud storage, no sync, and no analytics on your binder contents. Plausible only gives us aggregate, cookie-free page and event counts. We do not have a copy of your data. We could not read it, sell it, lose it, or hand it over — because it never reaches us. The only thing we ever receive is what you deliberately hand us: an email address, if you choose to sign up for the optional newsletter (a separate thing, covered below).
Where your binder lives
Everything you write in KitKept is stored in your browser's local storage on your device. Clearing your browser data for this site deletes the binder; deleting is always in your control, never ours.
What KitKept is designed never to hold
KitKept stores pointers, not secrets. The app's guidance and validation actively discourage entering passwords, PINs, Social Security numbers, or full account numbers, and it warns you when an entry looks like one. Please follow those warnings — the design keeps a lost or stolen device from becoming a disaster.
Exports are yours, and only yours, to make
- Every export is user-initiated. KitKept never creates a copy of your binder on its own.
- The encrypted export (.kitkept file) is encrypted in your browser with AES-256-GCM using a passphrase you choose. The passphrase is never stored or transmitted. There is no recovery for a lost passphrase — by design, no one (including us) can open your file without it.
- The plain backup file and the printed emergency pack are unencrypted by nature: treat them like the physical binder they are.
What does leave your device
- Serving the site: like any website, our hosting provider (Vercel, a future processor at launch) receives standard request logs (IP address, user agent) to deliver pages. Your binder contents are not in these requests.
- Fonts: pages load type from Google Fonts, which receives a standard font request from your browser.
- Payments (at launch): purchases would be processed by Stripe (a future processor). Stripe receives your payment details; we never see card numbers. We would receive only an entitlement confirmation.
- The paid live Coach (at launch): if you subscribe, your typed question and your section fill-levels (for example, "Insurance: 60%") are sent to our server and on to Anthropic (a future processor) to generate a reply. Binder contents — names, numbers, locations you've written — are never included, and digit sequences are scrubbed from questions before they are sent. Coach conversations are not used to train models by us and are not sold.
- The free on-device guide sends nothing anywhere. It answers from a knowledge base already on your device.
The optional newsletter is separate from your binder
Your binder never leaves this device — that is the whole point of KitKept, and nothing below changes it. Entirely separately, you may choose to give us your email to receive the free Household Readiness Guide and occasional tips. That is a plain email newsletter, unrelated to your binder:
- We never see what's in your binder. Signing up sends us your email address, the fact that you use KitKept, and a non-sensitive interest tag (for example, household-prepared). It never sends any names, numbers, locations, or anything you wrote in the binder.
- Both consent boxes are optional and off by default. One is for KitKept emails; the second, separate box is for occasional news about other Apps 4 That apps. We record which boxes you checked and when.
- One-click unsubscribe, always. Every email has an unsubscribe link, and unsubscribing stops the emails.
Sharing across Apps 4 That apps (only with your consent)
Apps 4 That LLC makes several apps. If — and only if — you check the second, optional box, we may use your email and interest tags to tell you about other Apps 4 That apps, and to recognize you as the same person across those apps so we don't send you duplicate or irrelevant messages. This uses a random, device-local identifier and your consent; it is never based on the contents of your binder, which we do not have. If you do not check that box, no cross-app sharing happens. You can withdraw consent at any time by unsubscribing.
This cross-app practice is governed suite-wide by the Apps 4 That Privacy & Audience Policy (DRAFT — pending counsel sign-off), which describes the consented shared-audience layer across every Apps 4 That app.
Service providers
To run KitKept we rely on a small number of providers. None of them ever receive your binder contents:
- Vercel — hosts and serves the site. Like any web host, it receives standard request logs (IP address, user agent) needed to deliver pages.
- GitHub — if you sign up for the newsletter, your email, interest tag, and consent choices may be stored in a private Apps 4 That store hosted on GitHub until our email provider is finalized. (This store may move to a dedicated email service provider at launch; this page will name it when it does.)
- Stripe (at launch) — processes any purchases. Stripe receives your payment details; we never see card numbers, only an entitlement confirmation.
- Anthropic (at launch, only if you subscribe to the paid live Coach) — generates the coach's replies from your typed question and your section fill-levels. Binder contents are never sent, and digit sequences are scrubbed from questions first.
No ad tracking
No advertising trackers, no tracking cookies, no fingerprinting, and no selling of personal information. Plausible Analytics gives us aggregate, cookie-free page and event counts only. The only "sharing" that can occur is the cross-product marketing described above, and only if you opt into it.
Children
KitKept is for adults organizing a household and is not directed at children under 13. The kids' logistics section is written by and for parents.
Changes
If this policy changes, the date above changes with it, and material changes will be called out plainly on this page before they apply.
