Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 2, 2026 (plan renamed from Prepared Parent to Prepared Case)

The short version: today, the free app keeps your case data in your browser on this device — it does not upload custody, income, or settlement numbers to our servers. We count anonymous page views and in-app events so we know if anyone is using this. Pro (coming) will add an optional login and encrypted cloud backup so you can restore your case on another device. Encrypted backup is not live yet; this page describes the free default that ships today and the Pro option we intend to offer.

1. Free / default: device-only

Unless you opt into Pro cloud backup when that feature is enabled:

We don't require an account to use the free app.
Your custody schedules, incomes, support amounts, proposals, assets, debts, and projections live in your browser's localStorage. That data never leaves your device unless you deliberately export it or create a share link.
We don't have a server-side database of your plaintext case data today, and we don't want one for free users.
We don't track you across the web. No Facebook Pixel, no Google Analytics, no third-party ad networks.
We don't sell your case data. Free users: we don't hold it. Pro cloud (when enabled): we would hold encrypted blobs, not readable case contents.

2. What we do collect today

Anonymous usage analytics (Vercel Analytics) Each time you open the app or switch between its main screens, our hosting provider (Vercel) records which screen it was, which site linked you there, your approximate location (country, region and city), device type, operating system and browser. The app also counts anonymous in-app events, such as which screens get opened, when the upgrade screen appears, when a download starts or a share link is copied, and whether a purchase or restore went through, along with counts such as how many proposals a case has — never the names, dates or amounts in your case. Before anything is sent, the app cuts the page's address down to its path and its campaign tags (the utm_… tags, and which version of the home page the link asks for), and the referring page down to its site. So the purchase code Stripe adds when you come back from checkout, the code in a referral link, and a case in a share link never reach analytics. No cookies, no IP address storage, no personal identifiers. We use this to see how many people visit, whether the site is growing, and where people get stuck.

Payment information (Stripe, only if you buy Pro / Prepared Case) If you purchase Pro, our payment processor Stripe collects your name, email, and payment method to process the transaction and send you a receipt. We see: your name, email, and the fact that you paid. We never see your card number or bank info — Stripe handles all of that. Pro purchase still goes through Stripe whether or not you later enable encrypted cloud backup.

Support emails If you email us (e.g., for a refund), we obviously have your email and whatever you wrote. We use it to respond to you and nothing else.

3. Your data on this device today

Everything you enter into the app — custody schedules, income figures, support amounts, proposals, assets, debts, settlement terms, and names of saved proposals — is stored in your browser's localStorage. One exception: when you choose to pay from the import screen, what you pasted there waits in that tab's session storage instead, on this device and never sent to us, until you import it or close the importer. If you don't come back to it, the app deletes it once it is more than an hour old: right then if the app is still open in that tab, otherwise the next time the app opens there. Closing the tab normally ends that tab's session storage too. None of it travels to us unless you deliberately create an export or share link. If you clear your browser data, it's gone from that device.

If you use the "share link" feature, your data gets encoded into the URL itself (as base64 in the hash). We don't see that URL unless you share it with us. Our analytics drop everything after the # before sending, so the case in a share link never reaches them either. The recipient can see everything you encoded.

4. Pro (coming): optional account + encrypted cloud backup

This section describes a planned Pro capability. Encrypted cloud backup, login, and cross-device restore are not shipped yet. When enabled, the core Pro promise is: you can log in, back up an encrypted copy of your case, and restore it on another device so your work is still there.

Optional. Free remains device-only localStorage. Cloud backup is opt-in for Pro, not required to model on one device.
Encryption model. Case data is encrypted on your device before upload (client-side encryption). We intend to store only the encrypted blob plus the account email needed for authentication — not plaintext custody schedules, incomes, support amounts, assets, debts, or settlement terms.
What we would store: account email (for login), purchase/entitlement signals we already get via Stripe, and encrypted backup blob(s) you choose to sync.
What we would not store: readable (plaintext) copies of your custody, finances, or settlement workbook.
Deletion. You can delete cloud backups and request account deletion; we will remove associated encrypted blobs and account records we control, subject to Stripe's financial-record retention for purchase history. Clearing browser data still removes the local copy on that device.
Purchase. Paying for Pro / Prepared Case continues through Stripe. Buying Pro does not by itself upload your case; backup happens only when the feature is live and you choose to use it.

Until that feature ships, claims elsewhere that say "your data stays on this device" remain accurate for the live product. We will update this page again when backup goes live.

5. Cookies

The app uses browser localStorage (technically not a cookie) to persist your settings and Pro status. After a purchase, that includes the checkout's ID or the email you restored it with, which the app re-checks with Stripe when you open it or return to its tab — once a day after a check goes through, more often while checks keep failing — so a refund can switch Pro off. For analytics it also keeps a few anonymous details — the screens you've visited, any campaign tags you arrived with, whether you have Pro, whether you're viewing your own case, the example or a shared one, and how many proposals you have — in this tab's session storage until you close it. The last upgrade prompt you saw is kept with those details in localStorage too, until a purchase is recorded, so the purchase event can say which prompt led to it. We do not use tracking cookies. Vercel Analytics is cookieless. Stripe's checkout page may set its own cookies during payment — we don't control those; see Stripe's privacy policy. Future Pro login may use session cookies or similar auth storage limited to keeping you signed in — not for advertising.

6. Children

The app isn't designed for or directed at children under 13. If you're modeling custody of children under 13, that's different — you're an adult entering data about your kids. Please don't put your kids' full names or personal details into this tool.

7. Your rights

For device-only use, you already control your case data in the browser. If you want us to:

Delete local app data: clear your browser's site data for this site (browser Settings → Privacy → Clear browsing data → choose "Cookies and other site data" for onepagecase.com). Everything the free app knows about your case lives in localStorage and is gone the moment you clear it, apart from a paste waiting while you pay from the import screen, which stays in that tab's session storage until you import it or close the importer, or until the app deletes it once it is more than an hour old (see section 3).
Delete your Stripe record: email us and we'll request deletion from Stripe (subject to their financial record retention requirements).
Get a copy of what we have on you: email us. Today, in most cases it's just your purchase record. When Pro cloud backup exists, we can confirm account email and that encrypted blobs exist; we cannot reconstruct plaintext case contents from those blobs.
Delete a Pro account / cloud backups (when offered): use in-product deletion if available, or email us; we will remove account and backup records we control as described above.

8. Changes

If we ever start collecting something new, this page will be updated and the "last updated" date changed. We won't slip new data collection in quietly.

The July 27–28, 2026 update was the rename from Our Family Lizard to One Page Case: the product name, the domain in the deletion instructions above, and a line naming Golden Data LLC as the company behind it. Nothing about what we collect changed then.

The September 7, 2026 update documents the planned Pro core promise — optional login and client-side-encrypted cloud backup for restore on another device — while stating clearly that sync is not live yet and free remains device-only.

The September 25, 2026 update describes the anonymous in-app events the app has sent since April 2026, which this page should have described then, what it keeps on your device for analytics and to re-check a purchase, and how the page's address is trimmed before anything is sent.

The October 2, 2026 update says where an import paste waits while you pay from the import screen: in that tab's session storage, on your device and never sent to us, until you import it, close the importer, or the app deletes it once it is more than an hour old. Nothing about what we collect changed.

A second October 2, 2026 update renamed the paid plan from Prepared Parent to Prepared Case. Nothing else changed.
