Rapid List — Privacy
Rapid List collects nothing about you. There is no account, no sign-in, no analytics, no advertising, and no tracking of any kind. We never see your lists.
Where your lists live
Your lists are stored on your device. If iCloud sync is switched on — it is on by default, and you can switch it off for any device in Settings — they are also stored in your own iCloud account, using Apple’s CloudKit.
That is your iCloud, not ours. Talk and Type has no servers, and we have no way to read, copy or recover your lists. If you turn sync off, your lists stay on that device.
Sharing a list
When you share a list, Apple sends the invitation, and the person you invite sees the list through their own iCloud. The list stays in your iCloud; nothing passes through us.
You choose what each person may do — view only, or add and tick things off — and you can change or remove their access at any time.
Circles
A circle is a group of people you share with often. The names and email addresses or mobile numbers you put in a circle are stored only on that device. They are used to address invitations through Apple, and they are never sent to us.
Choosing someone from Contacts
When you add someone to a circle you can pick them from your contacts. This uses Apple’s own contact picker, which runs outside the app: Rapid List never has access to your contacts. Only the single name and address you choose is passed back, and it is stored on your device with the rest of that circle.
Files you import and export
Rapid List can turn a markdown file into a list, and save a list back out as markdown. It reads and writes only the files you choose, when you choose them.
Deleting your information
Deleting the app removes everything Rapid List has stored on that device. Lists kept in your iCloud are yours: delete them in the app, or manage them in iCloud settings on your Apple device. We hold nothing to delete.
Children
Rapid List has no account, no sign-in, and no way to contact anyone through the app. It collects nothing from anybody, whatever their age.
This website
Everything above describes the app. This website is a separate thing, and the difference is worth stating plainly.
This site counts page views using Vercel Web Analytics. That is cookieless: it sets no cookies, it does not follow you to other sites, and it does not identify you. There is no advertising here and nothing on this site asks for your email address, or for anything else about you.
The app itself still collects nothing.
Changes
If this policy changes we will update this page and the date below.
