Any iCloud-synced data is protected by Apple's encryption standards both in transit and at rest.The App does not use any proprietary or non-standard encryption algorithms. All encryption is provided by Apple's operating system and is considered exempt under Apple's guidelines.

‍7. On-Device AI Feedback (Where Available)
