Privacy policy
Effective November 10, 2026
This policy explains what Mist collects, why, and what you can do about it.
What we collect
- Your mobile number, when you sign in, so we can text you a code and recognise you.
- Sign-in records: when you signed in and which apps you opened.
- What you put into apps on Mist, which is stored so the app works for you and the people you share it with.
- Basic technical data such as IP address, browser and request times, used to run Mist and keep it secure.
How we use it
To sign you in, send your codes, decide who can open each app, run the apps, prevent abuse and fix problems. We don't use your information for advertising.
Text messaging and your mobile number
We use your mobile number only to send the sign-in codes you ask for. We do not sell, rent or share your mobile number or your consent to receive texts with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Text messaging opt-in data and consent are never shared with third parties, except the provider that delivers the messages for us. Reply STOP to stop texts at any time.
Who we share with
Only the service providers that run Mist for us: Cloudflare, which hosts Mist and the apps, and Twilio, which delivers our text messages. They may use your information only to provide those services. The owner of an app can see that you opened it. We may also disclose information if the law requires it.
How long we keep it
We keep your number and sign-in records while you use Mist, and delete them when you ask. App content is kept until the app's owner deletes it.
Your choices
You can sign out at any time, reply STOP to stop texts, and email us to see or delete the information we hold about you.
Security
Sign-in sessions are signed and kept in secure cookies, each app can only see its own visitors, and we use encrypted connections everywhere.
Children
Mist isn't meant for children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect their information.
Changes
If we change this policy, we'll update the effective date above before the change applies.
