Privacy Policy

At Jourlo, your privacy is our priority. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding your data.

1. What We Collect

Personal Information:

• Email address (for login and communication)
• Name (optional, for personalization)
• Apple ID or Google ID (if using third-party sign-in)

Journal & Habit Data:

Stored locally on your device. We never access or store this data on our servers.

Usage Data:

Anonymous analytics (e.g., app crashes, feature usage) to improve the app.

2. How We Use Your Information

• Authentication: Verify your identity and keep your account secure
• Payment Processing: Manage subscriptions via Apple In-App Purchase
• App Improvement: Analyze anonymized usage data to enhance features
• Communication: Send important updates (e.g., policy changes, feature announcements)

3. Data Storage & Security

Local Storage:

Your journal entries and personal data are stored only on your device. This ensures complete privacy—your thoughts stay yours.

Server Storage:

We store only your email and name on secure servers for authentication and payment purposes, protected with industry-standard encryption.

4. Third-Party Services

We use trusted third-party services for authentication (like Apple/Google Sign-In and email login), payment processing (Apple In-App Purchase), and anonymous app analytics.

We share only the minimum information needed, and these services protect your data with the same high standards as described in this policy.

Their own privacy policies apply — we don't control them.

5. Data Sharing

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information. We may disclose information only when:

• Required by law or legal process
• You give explicit consent
• Necessary to protect our rights or safety

6. Your Rights

• Export: Download all your journal and habit data from the app
• Delete: Remove your account and all associated data from our servers
• Update: Change your email or name in app settings
• Opt-Out: Contact us to opt out of analytics

To exercise these rights, contact us at contact@jourlo.space. We'll respond within 30 days.

7. Children's Privacy

Jourlo is for users 13 years and older. We don't knowingly collect information from children under 13. If we discover we have, we'll delete it immediately.

8. Data Retention

We keep your email and name while your account is active. If you delete your account, we'll remove your data from our servers within 30 days (except where required by law). Journal data on your device remains until you delete the app.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy occasionally. When we do, we'll update the effective date and notify you via the app or email. Continued use means you accept the changes.
