How we protect your privacy and handle your data.
Rhyme Hub is developed by Chris Nagy, trading as Butterfly Bombarby. This policy covers the iOS and Android apps. Last updated: 14 September 2026. No Rhyme Hub account is required.
Your saved Soapbox writing, favourites, recent searches and settings are stored in the app on your device. Rhyme Hub does not operate a server that stores your writing library or syncs it between devices. The app contains no advertising or analytics SDK.
Your device may include app data in iCloud Backup, Android backup or device transfers according to your system settings. Those services are managed by Apple or Google and your device provider.
Looking up a word sends that word over HTTPS to external rhyme and dictionary services. While writing suggestions are enabled, the target word in your text is also sent to find suggestions. The app does not upload your complete document.
The providers receive the search word and the network information needed to respond, including your IP address. They may keep request logs under their own privacy policies. Datamuse states that temporary query logs are discarded at the end of the day after the request. We do not describe these requests as entirely on-device or guarantee that providers retain no data.
The upcoming Android release and updated iOS build use Datamuse, RhymeBrain, FreeDictionaryAPI.com and Free Dictionary API at dictionaryapi.dev. Earlier iOS versions may also contact API Ninjas and Merriam-Webster. Available sources depend on the installed version, app settings and service availability.
The App Store and Apple StoreKit handle iOS distribution and purchases. Google Play and Google Play Billing handle Android distribution and purchases. The app uses purchase status to unlock Pro. Rhyme Hub does not receive your payment-card details.
If you export or share writing, the selected content is sent to the app or destination you choose. That destination then handles it under its own policies.
If you contact support, we receive the information you choose to send and use it to respond. Please avoid including private writing or other sensitive information unless it is needed for your enquiry.
App network requests use HTTPS. Local data uses the storage protections provided by your operating system. We do not sell your data.
Saved app data remains until you delete it or clear app storage. Cached results may be replaced automatically. System backups and provider-held records have separate retention controls and policies.
Use the app controls to delete Soapbox pieces or clear history and favourites. On Android, clearing app storage removes local app data; on iOS, deleting the app removes its local data. Manage device backups separately to prevent previously backed-up data from being restored.
For privacy questions or deletion requests, contact Butterfly Bombarby at butterflybombarby@gmail.com. We can address information you have sent directly to us; requests about records held by external providers are subject to their policies. No account deletion is required because Rhyme Hub has no account system.
The current policy is published on this page. The revision date above changes when this policy is updated.
