How long Loom274 keeps data

Loom274 keeps your family's data only to run your family's hub. A parent can download all of it, or delete all of it, from Settings → Your family's data on their phone.

What Loom274 keeps

  • Your family's name, time zone, and each person's name and colour. Kids have no email or birthday in Loom274; a kid's PIN is stored only as a one-way hash.
  • What you add: events, rides, chores, points, rewards, menus, notes, groceries and the memory verse.
  • An activity log of who changed what (including when the family's data was downloaded), so a parent can see what happened.
  • Parents' sign-in emails, and each screen's sign-in.
  • The waitlist: an email address and how you heard of Loom274, if you joined it on loom274.app/start. It is deleted after 12 months, or when you ask.
  • Problem reports sent from "Report a problem": a number (like P-0007), what you wrote (with emails, phone numbers and keys removed), the screen, and technical details such as the app version and screen size. A report from a wall never names the kid. Screenshots are emailed to the family's admin and never stored in Loom274.

How long

  • While your family uses Loom274: what you add, for as long as your family has a Loom274 household. The activity log keeps one year; offline-sync receipts keep 30 days; skipped or cancelled chores that never earned points keep 90 days; screen sign-in codes expire within a day. A problem report keeps its number and status; what you wrote is cleared 180 days after the report is closed.
  • When a parent deletes the household: the deletion happens 3 days later, so a mistake can be undone; every parent sees it on Today and either can cancel it. Then every row is deleted, together with every parent's (including an invited parent's) and every screen's sign-in.
  • Backups: encrypted nightly backups age out within 30 days, so deleted data is gone from backups within 30 days of deleting it.
  • Error reports: crash reports carry no names or message text and are kept for up to 30 days by our error service.

Who else handles your family's data

  • Supabase (database and sign-in) and Cloudflare (the app, and the encrypted backups) store it for Loom274; their own logs of requests are kept for a short time.
  • Google (the Gemini API) receives the words you type into quick add, only to read them into an event; Loom274 saves nothing until you tap Save. Google may keep API requests for a limited time to detect abuse, under its own terms.
  • Resend sends the sign-in emails and problem reports (with any screenshots) and keeps a log of the email address and delivery.
  • Google receives your events if you share a Family Hub calendar with Loom274; that calendar is in your account.
  • Sentry receives crash reports with no names, messages or emails.
  • Railway runs the nightly backup and keep-alive jobs; it stores nothing itself.

What stays with you

  • The Family Hub calendar is in your own Google account. Deleting Loom274 stops updates to it; delete the calendar in Google, or stop sharing it with Loom274's service account, if you no longer want it.
  • A downloaded export is a file on your device; keep it or delete it as you like.
