A Year Ago - Privacy Policy
Last updated: 11 November 2026
A Year Ago is an iPhone, iPad and iPhone Duo app published by LetsGetStashd™ Ltd. It shows what happened on this day a year ago.
No account, no advertising, no analytics and no tracking. The app is free.
On your phone only
Your photos, calendar events and Apple Health data are read on your device to build the page. They are never uploaded or shared, and Health data is never used for advertising. You can switch any of them off in Settings, or in iOS Settings.
Location
Your home place is stored on the device. To fetch the weather the app sends that place's coordinates, rounded to about 11 km, to NASA POWER, and nothing else about you. If you allow it, the phone's location can be used to set the home place; it is not stored anywhere except on your phone.
Public data services the app contacts
Like any website, these see your IP address and the date requested: NASA POWER, Wikipedia and Wikimedia, Coinbase, the European Central Bank via Frankfurter, Yahoo Finance, FRED (US Energy Information Administration and Federal Reserve), the US Geological Survey, The Space Devs (Launch Library 2) and Apple's App Store lookup for the "More from us" list. Credits are in the app under Settings.
Apple Intelligence
When your device supports it, the day summary is written on the device. Nothing is sent to us.
Children
The app is not directed at children and collects no information from anybody.
Changes
If a future version collects anything, this page and the App Store privacy label will say so before it ships.
