Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 2026 Coming soon · Draft v0.1

Weve is where you and the people you were with tell the story of something that happened, together. A memory is personal, and it often has other people in it. This policy explains who can see what you make here, what happens when you share it, and the control you keep over it.

1. Who we are

Weve is operated by WEVE TECHNOLOGY LTD (“Weve”, “we”, “us”), located at 1 Example Street, London, United Kingdom Coming soon. We are the controller of the personal data described here. For privacy questions you can reach us at privacy@weve.dev.

2. Your memories, and who sees them

A memory is a story Weve writes with you, from what you tell it and what the sources you connected show. While it is a draft, it is visible to you alone, including to anyone you have named in it.

When you save a memory you choose its audience:

• Only us: the people in the memory, and nobody else. If you are the only one in it, only you.
• Friends: your friends on Weve, plus the people in it.
• People you pick: the accounts you choose, plus the people in it.
• Everyone: anyone signed in to Weve. It can appear in Explore.

The people who were there always see the memory they are in, whichever audience you choose. Your account has a standing choice of audience that starts at Only us, and stays there until you change it.

Someone who finds a memory in Explore reads the story without its sources, and sees reactions as counts, not names.

3. Friends and sharing

On Weve, a friend is somebody you have shared a memory with. There are no friend requests and no follower lists. Taking an invitation to a memory is what makes two people friends.

When you share a memory with a friend, they can read it and are told that you did. Sharing only ever widens who can read a memory; it never quietly narrows it. Saving a memory for someone lets them read it without making them a friend.

Your address book. If you let Weve look for people you know, your phone turns each number into a one-way hash before anything leaves it. We compare those hashes with the verified numbers of people on Weve, keep the list of accounts that matched, and discard the rest. We never store your contacts’ numbers or the names of people who are not on Weve.

4. When other people are in your memory

When you name someone in a memory, they are asked for their side of it once you save it. Their side is theirs to tell, in their own conversation with Weve; nobody else reads that conversation.

Their side reaches you as the story retold with it in. You approve it all or none of it, and if you decline, they are not told why. The same applies the other way round: what you add to somebody else’s memory becomes part of their story only if they accept it.

If you are named in a memory and would rather not be, you can decline to tell your side, and you can ask the author or us to remove you. In-app removal coming soon

Weve does not guess things about people that a story did not say. In particular, it does not infer anyone’s pronouns from their name.

5. Invitations and links

An invitation to a memory is a web link. Anyone who has the link can open it and tell their side, so share it the way you would share a key: with the people who were there. You can turn a memory’s link off at any time, and it stops working for everyone.

Someone without the app who opens a link gets a temporary account that can open that one memory and nothing else. At the end they can keep the account by confirming an email address. Retention for unclaimed accounts coming soon

6. Reactions and notifications

Anyone who can read a memory can react to a line of it. Readers you chose can see who reacted; readers from Explore see only how many. When somebody reacts, adds their side, or shares a memory with you, we tell you by push notification and, if you have verified a phone number, sometimes by text message. You can turn notifications off in your phone’s settings.

7. The sources behind a story

You can connect sources such as your calendar, email, music, fitness apps, bank, Apple Health and your location, each with its own permission. Weve uses them to remember what happened: to place a memory in time, to suggest what might be worth telling, and to quote a message or a photo where it helps the story.

• Only what is placed in a story is shown to its readers, and only to the audience you chose. Everything else your sources hold stays private to you.
• When someone checks whether they were at the same place as you, only whether they were there is shared, never where either of you was.
• You can see what is connected at any time and disconnect a source in one tap. Disconnecting stops all future reading of it.

If you connect an outside assistant (for example Claude or ChatGPT) to your Weve account, it can read the conclusions Weve has drawn, never your raw sources, and every read it makes is logged.

8. How we use information

• To write, keep and show your memories to the people you chose.
• To deliver invitations, the sides your friends add, reactions and notifications.
• To secure, monitor, debug and improve the service.
• To communicate with you about your account, security and changes to Weve.
• To meet legal and compliance obligations.

Stories are written with the help of AI models run by our providers. They process what is needed to write the story and are not permitted to train on it.

9. What we never do

• We never sell personal data, and never share it for advertising.
• We never use your memories or your connected data to train machine-learning models.
• We never make a memory more public than the audience you chose.
• We never tell anyone that you declined their side of a story.

10. Who else handles your information

Beyond the people you share memories with, we share personal data only with:

• Service providers (hosting, AI models, email, text messages and push notifications) bound by contract to protect it. Full list coming soon
• Authorities, where required by valid legal process.

11. Keeping and deleting

Your memories are kept for as long as your account exists, because keeping them is the point. You can delete a memory at any time, and it is gone for everyone who could read it. You can export your account, and you can delete it: that deletes the memories you wrote and your place in other people’s.

A side you added to someone else’s memory, once they accepted it, became part of their story. If you want it taken out after deleting your account, contact us. Exact windows coming soon

12. Security

We protect data with encryption in transit and at rest, and access to each memory is checked against a single rule for who may see it. Photos and videos are private and only reachable through signed links.

13. Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, port or restrict the processing of your personal data, and to withdraw consent. Much of this you can do yourself in the app; for anything else, contact privacy@weve.dev. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data-protection authority.

14. International transfers

Where data is processed outside your region, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses. Hosting regions coming soon

15. Cookies

We use a small number of cookies to keep you signed in, remember preferences, and secure the service.

Essential · Analytics · Preferences: each cookie’s name, purpose and duration will be listed here. Cookie table coming soon

16. Children’s privacy

Weve is not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect their personal data.

17. Changes to this policy

We’ll update this page when our practices change and revise the “last updated” date above. Material changes will be communicated directly where appropriate.

18. Contact
