This Privacy Policy explains how WithoutMe, operated by Michael Cardin, sole proprietor ("we," "us," or "our"), collects, uses, and protects your information when you use our Service at withoutme.app. We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your data responsibly.
Free Plan (No Account): When you use WithoutMe without an account, all data — including SOPs, steps, and checklist progress — is stored locally on your device using your browser's localStorage. We do not collect, transmit, or store any of this data on our servers.

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes. We share data only with:

When you share SOPs with your team via invite links, team members can view and run checklists for your Active SOPs. Team members do not need accounts — their checklist progress is stored locally on their own devices. Team members cannot access your drafts, archived SOPs, or account information.
We retain your account data and synced SOPs for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we will delete your data from our servers within 30 days. Local data stored on your device is not affected by account deletion — you control that through your browser settings.

The Service is not intended for individuals under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the updated policy on this page with a revised "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the Service after any changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
