Cradle

Privacy

Last updated 30 September 2026

Cradle has no accounts and no sign-up. We never learn your name, your email, or your phone number, because we never ask for them.

Your due date, your symptom notes, your blood pressure readings and your kick counts stay on your phone. They are not uploaded to us. We cannot see them.

What stays on your phone

Cradle saves what you enter in your device's own local storage, the same place a website remembers your settings. That includes:

None of this leaves your device. It is not sent to a server, not backed up by us, and not readable by us. Deleting the app, or clearing your browser data for this site, erases all of it permanently. We keep no copy to restore.

The one thing that leaves your phone

When you use Ask me, the text of that conversation is sent over an encrypted connection to our server, which passes it to Anthropic so Claude can answer. That is the only feature that sends anything anywhere.

Our server does not store your conversation. It forwards it, returns the answer, and keeps nothing. We do not build a history, we do not attach it to you, and we could not look up what you asked even if we wanted to.

Because those messages go to a third party to be answered, please do not type your full name, your address, your ID number, or anything you would not want leaving your phone. Describe how you feel, not who you are.

Anthropic handles that text under its own terms. Your IP address is used briefly, in memory only, to stop one device flooding the service with requests. It is never written to disk and never linked to your messages.

What we never collect

Our host, Netlify, keeps ordinary web server logs when a page or image is requested, the way every website does. Those logs are not linked to anything you entered in the app.

Cradle is not your doctor

Cradle gives general pregnancy guidance from published medical sources. It does not diagnose, it does not prescribe, and it does not replace your doctor or midwife. If something is wrong, contact your doctor or emergency services. The app shows you the emergency signs that mean go now.

Children

Cradle is intended for adults and for pregnant people under the care of a doctor. We do not knowingly collect information from children, and since we collect no personal information from anyone, there is nothing to collect.

Changes

If this policy changes, the date at the top changes with it. Since we hold no contact details, we cannot email you, so the current version always lives at this address.
