Nice, but I think I can do you one better; put this in a header file
common to all of the source files where you use NSLog:
#define DEBUG
#ifdef DEBUG
#define MYLog(x) NSLog(x)
#else
#define MYLog(x) /* */
#endif
Now in your code, replace NSLog with MYLog...
When doing your build, simply undefine DEBUG so that the NSLog messages
become comments, which compile down to nothing ;-)

#define DEBUG
in code somewhere
#ifdef DEBUG
NSLog(@"Some sensitive message");
#endif
Then all you have to do is either put the define in the development
build style or just comment out the #define when doing a deployment
build.

I'm writing a program that outputs some sensitive data via NSLog (for
debugging) that shouldn't be visible to the user. Is it OK to leave
all the places I use NSLog where they are, or should I take them out?
Is there anyways the user can grab or sniff what my program is
outputting?
I just use NSLog for debugging purposes when I'm running the program
in Xcode. It's convenient, so I can see what my program is doing, but
if there's anyway someone can get the data that is being output with
NSLog, I need to take it out.
Thanks.
