Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 12, 2026

The short version

Patch Tarot works without an account. We don’t ask for your name, email, or location. Your readings, notes, and settings live on your device. If you join The Grove, the posts and reflections you choose to share are stored on our servers under an anonymous handle.

What stays on your device

Saved readings, journal notes, app settings, your streak, and your display name are stored locally on your device. We cannot see them, and they are removed if you delete the app.

What we store when you use The Grove

The Grove is our community space. When you post, reflect, star, or follow, that content is stored on our servers (hosted by Supabase) together with a random anonymous identifier for your device and the display name you chose. No account, email, or password is involved, and we cannot link your Grove activity to your real identity.

You can delete your own posts at any time from within the app. To request removal of all content associated with your device, contact us at the address below.

Notifications

If you enable reminders or community notifications, your device may register a push token so notifications can be delivered. You can turn all notifications off at any time in Options → Notifications or in iOS Settings.

Advertising

The free version of Patch Tarot shows banner ads served by Google AdMob. Google may collect device identifiers and ad-interaction data to serve and measure ads, as described in Google’s own privacy policy. If your device asks permission to track, you can decline and ads will simply be less personalized. Patch Plus removes ads entirely.

Purchases

Subscriptions are processed by Apple through your Apple ID. We never see your payment details.

Children

Patch Tarot is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.

What we don’t do

We don’t sell your data. We don’t collect your contacts, photos, or precise location. We don’t profile you across other apps or websites.

Changes

If this policy changes in a meaningful way, we’ll update the date at the top and note the change in the app.

Terms of Use

Last updated: June 12, 2026

Welcome

These terms are an agreement between you and Spirit Studios, the maker of Patch Tarot. By using the app you agree to them.

For reflection, not advice

Tarot and oracle readings in Patch Tarot are offered for insight, reflection, and entertainment. They are not medical, psychological, legal, or financial advice, and should never replace guidance from a qualified professional. Decisions you make remain your own.

Patch Plus subscription

Patch Plus is an auto-renewing subscription that unlocks all decks, spreads, the Book of Patch, The Grove community, and removes ads.

Your content in The Grove

You own what you write. By posting to The Grove you give us a worldwide, royalty-free licence to display that content within the app so the community can see it. You are responsible for what you post, and you confirm it doesn’t violate anyone’s rights or our Community Guidelines.

Acceptable use

Don’t use Patch Tarot to harass, threaten, or harm others; to post unlawful, hateful, or sexually explicit content; to spam or advertise; or to interfere with the app or its servers. We may remove content and restrict access for violations, with or without notice.

Our content

The decks, artwork, card writings, the Book of Patch, and the app itself belong to Spirit Studios and are protected by copyright. You may not copy, redistribute, or resell them outside the app.

No warranty

Patch Tarot is provided “as is”. We work hard to keep it reliable, but we can’t promise it will always be available or error-free.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Spirit Studios is not liable for indirect or consequential damages arising from your use of the app.

Changes

We may update these terms as the app evolves. Continued use after an update means you accept the new terms.

Community Guidelines

Last updated: June 12, 2026

The spirit of The Grove

The Grove is a quiet circle for sharing readings and reflections. People arrive here in vulnerable moments. Treat every post as if its writer were sitting across the table from you.

Be kind

Encourage, witness, and reflect. Disagreement is fine; cruelty is not.

Never allowed

Stay anonymous, keep others anonymous

The Grove runs on anonymous handles by design. Don’t post your own personal details, and never reveal someone else’s.

How moderation works

Posts pass through an automatic content filter before they’re shared. Every post has a ⋯ menu where you can report it to our team or block its author — blocked authors disappear from your feed immediately. Reported content is reviewed and removed when it breaks these guidelines, and repeat violations can lose access to The Grove.

Readings are personal

When someone shares a reading, respond to their reflection, not with predictions or alarming interpretations of their cards. Never tell someone a card means something bad is going to happen to them.
