Nave

Privacy

Last updated 20 August 2026

There are two separate things to describe here: this website, and the Nave app for iPhone. They are built on opposite sides of a line, and the difference matters.

This website

If you join the waitlist, we store two things: the email address you typed, and which language version of the page you typed it on. Nothing else is recorded — not your name, not your device, not where you came from.

That address is used for two messages and no others: a note confirming you are on the list, sent as you join, and a single email telling you that Nave is available. The list exists for that second message. Once it has gone out, the list is deleted.

The site sets no cookies. It runs no analytics, no tracking pixels, and no third-party scripts. The typeface is served from this domain rather than from a font network, so loading the page tells no one but us that you visited.

The site is hosted on Cloudflare Pages and the waitlist is stored in Cloudflare Workers KV, which means Cloudflare handles the network request the way any host does. Your IP address is used to rate-limit the form while that one request is being answered, and is never written to storage.

To have your address removed before the email goes out, write to hello@navememory.com and it will be deleted.

The Nave app

Nave is local-first. Every note you capture is a plain Markdown file in your own iCloud Drive folder. The files are yours: readable, movable, and openable in any text editor, with or without Nave installed. The search index is derived from those files and is disposable — delete it and nothing of yours is lost.

Capture never waits on a network. Your words are written to disk before anything else in the app begins.

The part of Nave that writes the title, the summary, the key points and the actions works by sending the text of that note to a model provider. This happens only after you have agreed to it, and it is configured for each space separately. A space with no intelligence configured sends nothing anywhere.

Voice capture asks for permission to use the microphone before it records anything, separately from the above.

Nave contains no analytics framework, no crash-reporting service, and no advertising identifier. If the app crashes, a report reaches us only when you have chosen to share crash data with developers in your iOS settings, and it arrives through Apple rather than through us.

Children

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

Changes

If this policy changes, the date at the top of this page changes with it.
