AnteUp Privacy Policy

Last updated 1 September 2026

AnteUp is made by DELAI. This policy explains what the app collects, why, where it goes, and how to get rid of it. It covers the AnteUp app and the service behind it.

The short version. We store the account you sign in with, the Antes you place and how they turn out, and the health figures that settle them. Your Screen Time app selections never leave your phone. We never sell your data, and health data is never used for advertising or shared with advertisers.

1. What we collect

Account

DataWhy
Email addressTo identify your account and send sign-in and password-reset mail.
PasswordStored only as a salted hash by our authentication provider. We never see it.
Apple account identifierIf you use Sign in with Apple. If you choose Apple's private relay we never receive your real address.

Profile, which you enter yourself

Display name, age range, time zone, the hour your day starts, your daily reminder time, your default Ante length, and whether you have granted health access. Every one of these is optional except the time zone, which the app needs to know when your day ends.

Your Antes

Each Ante you place: the activity, the length, the app you staked, when it started, and whether it was won, folded or missed. From those we derive Last 1000, Ante Won, Minutes Earned and Decision Win %. We keep a record of these events and work the numbers out from it, rather than keeping a running total that could drift.

Health data

If you grant access, AnteUp reads four things from Apple Health, and only to settle an Ante you set for yourself:

The reading relevant to an Ante is stored on our server so the result can be verified and cannot be altered on the phone. AnteUp never writes anything to Apple Health. Your device may list write access among the app’s permissions; we do not use it.

Health data is never used for advertising, never used to build a profile of you, and never shared with advertisers, data brokers or any third party. This is both our policy and a requirement of the app store we distribute through.

Screen Time selections

When you choose which apps to shield, your device does not tell us which apps you picked. That selection stays on your phone and is never sent to us. What we do store is the brand you chose from our own list, so we can name it back to you on screen. If you pick an app that is not on our list, we store only the word “Other”.

Motion

For a Walk Ante the app may read motion data from your device to confirm the walk. This is processed on the device.

Purchases

If you subscribe, our payments provider tells us that your subscription started, renewed, lapsed or was refunded, and which product it was. We never receive your card details. The app store handles the payment; we only learn the outcome.

Advertising

Free accounts see at most one full-screen ad per completed Ante, shown after you tap Collect Reward. Ads are served by our advertising provider, which may use your device’s advertising identifier. If you decline tracking when asked, or never answer, we request non-personalised ads only.

We record that an ad was shown, tied to the Ante it followed. We do not record anything about the ad's content.

What we do not collect

2. Who we share it with

We do not sell your data, and we do not share it for anyone else's advertising. We use these processors:

WhoWhat they getWhy
Our hosting providerEverything listed above that is stored with usTo store your account and run the service
Your device’s platform providerYour platform account identifier, and your purchase and health authorisationsSigning in with your device account, in-app purchases, and health access
Our subscription providerYour account identifier and subscription statusTo know whether your subscription is active
Our advertising providerDevice advertising identifier, subject to your tracking choiceTo serve the single ad on free accounts. Never health data.
Our app-update providerNo personal dataTo deliver app updates

We will also disclose data if the law requires it, or to investigate fraud or abuse of the service.

3. Where it is stored

Our records are held by our hosting provider, on systems shared with other DELAI products. AnteUp’s data is kept separate within it, and access is restricted to the account that owns it, so one account cannot read another’s. Data may be processed in the United States and other countries where our providers operate.

4. How long we keep it

5. Your choices and rights

Depending on where you live you may have additional rights under the GDPR, the UK GDPR or US state privacy laws, including the right to object to processing and to lodge a complaint with your data protection authority. Our lawful bases are performance of a contract (running the app you signed up for), consent (health data and tracking), and legitimate interests (security and fraud prevention).

6. Children

AnteUp is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their data. The age range field is optional and self-reported. If you believe a child has given us data, write to us and we will delete it.

7. Security

Traffic is encrypted in transit. Passwords are stored only as hashes. Access to your data is restricted to the account that owns it, and that restriction is enforced by our systems rather than by the app alone. No system is perfectly secure, and we do not claim otherwise.

8. Changes

If we change this policy we will update the date at the top, and we will tell you in the app if the change is material.
