Privacy Policy

App: Chronos Celebrations · Last updated: October 27, 2026

In short: Chronos Celebrations has no accounts, no servers of its own, collects no usage analytics and shows no ads. The names and birthdays of your contacts are read only on your device and never leave it.

1. Who is responsible

Controller: Christos Dimakis, Peristeri, Attica, Greece.
Contact: giortes@dimakis.app

2. What the app uses

Contacts (if you allow it): names, birthdays and thumbnails. They are read on the device to show which contacts have a name day or a birthday, and for notifications. They are never sent anywhere or stored outside the device. We do not modify your contacts.
Notifications (if you allow it): local notifications scheduled on the device. No push servers are used.
Settings: your choices (notification times, language, holiday country, theme, icon) are stored only on the device.
Device region: the region set on your iPhone decides the default country for public holidays (Greece or Cyprus). We do not use GPS location.
Chronos promotion: from time to time the app suggests our app Chronos. It checks on the device whether Chronos is already installed, so as not to suggest it to someone who has it; nothing is sent for this. If you tap the suggestion, the App Store page (or our website) opens. Apple may give us aggregated statistics about how many people opened that link (App Store Connect); the app itself measures nothing.

3. Internet connection

For the “On this day” section and the saints’ calendar, the app asks Wikipedia (wikipedia.org and api.wikimedia.org, Wikimedia Foundation) for the page or the events of the day. With the app in Greek the request goes to the Greek Wikipedia; with the app in English it goes to the Wikimedia “On this day” service and to the English Wikipedia (for the saints’ calendar). The request contains the date you are viewing and an app identifier (name, version and the contact address stated here). No contacts or other personal data are sent. As the server, the Wikimedia Foundation sees your IP address and applies its own privacy policy. Name days, public holidays, Easter, the moon phase and zodiac signs are calculated on the device without a network.

For the “Our apps” screen, the app downloads from our website (dimakis.app, hosted on GitHub Pages) the list of our apps with their names, icons and links. It is a plain request that contains nothing about you; as the server, GitHub sees your IP address. The Privacy Policy and the Terms of Use also open from dimakis.app, in a Safari window inside the app.

4. What we do not do

There is no account or sign-up.
There are no ads and no third-party analytics or crash-reporting tools.
We do not track you across apps or websites and we do not use the IDFA.
We do not sell or share data, because we do not collect it.

5. Your rights

Because we do not keep personal data about you, there is nothing for us to correct or delete. You can revoke any permission (Contacts, Notifications) in iPhone Settings, or delete the app. You have the right to lodge a complaint with the Hellenic Data Protection Authority (dpa.gr).

6. Children

The app is not aimed at children in particular and does not collect data from anyone.

7. Changes

If this policy changes, this page and the date at the top will be updated.
