Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 14, 2026

Roono is built by raastey. This policy describes what happens to your data when you use Roono on Mac, iPhone, or iPad.

The short version

Roono does not require an account. Your projects are stored on your device and, if you enable it, synced privately through your own iCloud account. Roono does not operate servers that store your manuscripts, sources, or Vault contents, and does not sell or share your data with third parties.

What Roono stores, and where

• Projects, drafts, and revision history are stored locally on your device in Roono's project format.
• iCloud sync, when enabled, uses your personal iCloud account to sync projects between your own devices. This data is transmitted and stored under Apple's iCloud terms and privacy policy, not raastey's infrastructure.
• The Vault is end-to-end encrypted, with its key held in your device's Secure Enclave and unlocked by Touch ID or your device passcode. Vault contents are excluded from exports, Spotlight indexing, and any agent workspace at the filesystem level. raastey cannot read Vault contents, with or without your consent, because raastey does not hold the key.
• Roono does not require or create a Roono account, and does not collect a name, email address, or payment detail on Roono's own behalf. App Store purchases are handled entirely by Apple under Apple's own privacy policy.

Agents you connect

Roono lets you connect a supported third-party agent (for example, an AI coding or writing assistant) using your own account or API key. If you choose to do this:

• Only the project context you explicitly approve is sent to that agent provider.
• The Vault is never included in agent context, by design.
• Data sent to a connected agent is handled under that provider's own privacy policy and terms, not raastey's. Roono logs that a run occurred and what context it received, on your device, so you can review it.
• Agent-suggested edits arrive as a reviewable proposal branch. Nothing is written to your active draft without your acceptance.

Analytics and tracking

Roono does not include analytics, tracking, or telemetry by default. If measurement is introduced in a future version, the events collected and their privacy impact will be documented here before that change ships, and it will not apply retroactively without disclosure.

Children's privacy

Roono is a professional writing tool and is not directed at children. Roono does not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Your control over your data

Because your projects live on your own device and your own iCloud account, you control export, deletion, and retention directly. Deleting a project from your device (and from iCloud, if synced) removes it. There is no raastey-held copy to separately request deletion of, outside of standard Apple App Store transaction records that Apple retains under its own policy.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the "last updated" date above will change and, for material changes, the update will be noted in the app's release notes.
