# Privacy Policy

**Forji** is an open-source iOS client for Forgejo. This policy explains how the app handles your data.

## Data Collection

Forji does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data to the developer or any third party.

## Data Storage

All data stays on your device:

- **Credentials** (passwords and API tokens) are stored in the iOS Keychain, encrypted by the operating system.
- **Server configuration** (instance URLs and usernames) is stored locally on your device using SwiftData.
- **Preferences** (such as appearance settings) are stored locally in UserDefaults.

## Network Communication

Forji communicates exclusively with the Forgejo server(s) you configure. No data is sent anywhere else. The app supports HTTPS and allows connections to self-hosted instances that may use self-signed certificates.

## Analytics and Tracking

Forji does not include any analytics, tracking, or advertising frameworks.

## Third-Party Services

Forji does not integrate with any third-party services. The only network communication is between the app and your Forgejo instance(s).

## Changes to This Policy

Any updates to this privacy policy will be published in this repository.

## Contact

If you have questions about this privacy policy, please open an issue on the [Forji repository on Codeberg](https://codeberg.org/secana/Forji).
