Tendi Privacy Policy
Last updated: November 9, 2026
Tendi helps stores run their opening, closing, cleaning and temperature checklists, with live photos that prove each task was done. It was built so your store’s records stay with you and your team.
Tendi is developed by Noramis, the company responsible for the app and for this policy (“we”, “us”).
What Tendi stores
Only what you and your team create in the app:
- your stores, with their name and type of business
- checklists, their items, schedules and accepted ranges
- the answers to each item: checks, numbers such as temperatures or cash amounts, notes, live photos and finger signatures
- reasons for skipping an item and corrective actions
- the name you type for yourself and the names of the people on each store’s team
Every answer gets a signed stamp with the time, the name of who did it and a fingerprint of the photo. If you allow it, the stamp also records where the photo was taken. The stamp is signed with a key created in your device’s Secure Enclave. That key never leaves the device. Only its public part travels with the stamps, so the team can check them.
Where your data is kept
On your iPhone or iPad, in the app’s own storage, which the Tendi widget on the same device also reads.
If you turn on iCloud sync, Tendi keeps each store in your private iCloud database, with every field encrypted, so it shows up on your other devices. Apple keeps this data under your Apple Account. Noramis can’t see or access it.
Your preferences, such as the accent color and the name you use, are kept on the device and in your iCloud key-value storage.
Your team
When an owner invites people to a store, Apple’s iCloud sharing gives them access to that store only. They see its checklists, answers, photos and names, and the answers they add are seen by everyone on that store’s team. The owner can stop sharing at any time, and team members can leave a store.
What Tendi doesn’t do
- No account to create.
- No ads.
- No analytics or tracking.
- No third-party code that collects data.
- No selling or sharing of your data.
- No servers of ours that receive your data.
Permissions
All permissions are optional and you can change them in the iOS Settings app.
- Camera: to take live photos of checklist items. Tendi never opens your photo library.
- Location: only at the moment a photo is taken, to add the place to its stamp. You can turn it off in Tendi in Settings > Data and iCloud > Add place to photos.
- Notifications: checklist reminders and late alerts, scheduled on your device.
The widget, the Live Activity and Siri and Shortcuts read the store’s status on your device only.
Exports
Spreadsheets and inspection reports only leave the app when you share them. The app you share them with handles them under its own policy.
Purchases
Tendi Plus subscriptions are processed by Apple. We never receive your payment details. Tendi only asks the App Store whether your subscription is active and keeps the last answer on this device, to show the right plan offline.
Your control
- Export a store’s records as a spreadsheet at any time, for free.
- Delete everything in Settings > Data and iCloud > Erase everything. This removes your stores from this device and, when they sync, from iCloud and your other devices, and ends every share.
- Leave a store you joined, or delete a store you own, in Settings > Stores.
- Deleting the app removes the data stored on the device.
Because the data stays with you, there is no copy of ours to request or delete.
Children
Tendi is a work tool made for adults who run or work in a store. It is not directed at children.
Changes
If this policy changes, we update this page and the date at the top. Important changes are also shown in the app.
