ShareMy Privacy
ShareMy uses local profiles and Apple's Screen Time technologies to provide shared-device controls on your iPhone or iPad.
This Privacy Policy explains what information ShareMy uses, where that information is handled, and how purchases and support requests are processed.
Effective date: September 9, 2026
Overview
ShareMy is designed to manage access to apps on a shared iPhone or iPad using local user profiles and Apple's Screen Time frameworks.
ShareMy does not require users to create a ShareMy account in order to use the app.
User profiles, PIN-related settings, allowances, allowed hours, app selections, session state, and related ShareMy preferences are designed to be stored on the device.
These settings are used so ShareMy can apply the correct access rules for each person sharing the device.
Information Used
ShareMy uses information entered or selected by the device administrator to manage profiles and app access.
ShareMy may store profile names, profile icons, profile colors, time allowances, allowed-hours settings, and app-access preferences on the device.
ShareMy uses local PINs to distinguish users and protect administrative controls.
These PINs are separate from the device unlock passcode and Apple Account credentials.
ShareMy maintains information needed to calculate remaining daily allowance, bonus time, and active session state.
ShareMy stores the Screen Time app, category, and web-domain selections needed to apply restrictions for global or individual user profiles.
Apple Screen Time
ShareMy uses Apple's Family Controls, Managed Settings, and Device Activity technologies to manage access to selected apps and websites on the device.
Apple provides privacy-preserving application, category, and web-domain tokens to apps that use these frameworks.
Screen Time authorization allows ShareMy to apply restrictions, monitor allowance thresholds, and re-lock managed apps when a user's time or allowed-hours window ends.
If Screen Time authorization is removed, ShareMy cannot continue enforcing those restrictions until authorization is restored.
Usage Information
ShareMy uses Apple's Device Activity technology to determine when configured usage thresholds have been reached for managed apps.
This allows ShareMy to provide features such as remaining allowance, the two-minute warning, time-expired locking, and allowed-hours enforcement.
ShareMy is designed to use this information only to provide the device-management features configured by the administrator.
Purchases
ShareMy offers a free trial followed by a one-time permanent unlock.
Purchases are processed through Apple's App Store and StoreKit. ShareMy does not directly process your payment card information.
ShareMy may check App Store purchase entitlement information so the app can determine whether the permanent unlock has been purchased.
Advertising
ShareMy does not use advertising as part of its product model.
ShareMy is offered through a free trial followed by a one-time permanent purchase rather than advertising-supported access.
Support
If you contact ShareMy Support, you may choose to provide information such as your email address, device model, operating system version, screenshots, or a description of an issue.
Information you send directly to us is used to respond to your request, troubleshoot problems, and improve support.
Please avoid sending passwords, PINs, Apple Account credentials, or other sensitive information in support messages.
Shared Devices
ShareMy may be used by a parent, guardian, or other device owner to create local profiles for people who share the device.
ShareMy profiles are local device profiles and are not separate ShareMy online accounts.
The device administrator controls profile creation, app access, allowances, and administrative settings.
Your Choices
The administrator can edit or delete ShareMy user profiles from within the app.
The administrator can change the apps ShareMy manages through the app's Setup & Protection or user-profile settings.
The administrator can disable ShareMy restrictions from within the app.
Screen Time authorization can also be managed through Apple's device settings.
Third Parties
ShareMy relies on Apple technologies including Screen Time, Family Controls, Managed Settings, Device Activity, StoreKit, and the App Store.
Information processed directly by Apple is subject to Apple's own privacy policies and terms.
Security
ShareMy uses local administrative controls and Apple platform technologies to help protect access to app settings and user profiles.
No method of electronic storage or software security can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Policy Updates
We may update this Privacy Policy when ShareMy features, technology, legal requirements, or business practices change.
When this policy is updated, the effective date shown at the top of this page will also be updated.
