Compliant by Design
Most apps promise to protect your data. Nexus was built so we never have it.
Compliant by Avoidance
Nexus has no servers, no databases, no analytics endpoints. Your contacts, notes, and interactions stay on your device and in your private iCloud account. Most privacy regulations exist to control what companies do with your data — we eliminated that question entirely.
- ✓ No data breach risk — there's nothing to breach
- ✓ No right-to-delete requests — we don't have your data to delete
- ✓ No cross-border transfer concerns — your data stays in your iCloud region
- ✓ No tracking or profiling — we have no analytics infrastructure
Compliant by Proxy
The infrastructure Nexus does rely on — Apple's iCloud and Cloudflare's CDN — carries world-class security certifications. Your data is protected by the same standards that serve governments and Fortune 500 companies.
