Privacy Policy — Habits & Goals

This Privacy Policy explains how Habits & Goals ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and protects your information when you use the Habits & Goals mobile application and related services (collectively, the "App"). By using the App, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

Health & wellness disclaimer. Habits & Goals is a habit and goal tracking app for general wellness. It is not a medical device and does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional with any questions about your health. See Section 7 for the full disclaimer.

1. Information We Collect

1.1 Information you provide

Account information — such as your name, email address, and password when you create an account.
Content you create — habits, goals, check-ins, notes, milestones, communities, and challenges you add to the App.
Communications — messages you send us for support or feedback.

1.2 Information collected automatically

Usage data — features used, actions taken, and general interaction patterns that help us improve the App.
Device information — device model, operating system version, language, and app version.
Diagnostics — crash logs and performance data.

1.3 Subscription & purchase information

Purchases and subscriptions are processed by the Apple App Store and Google Play Store, and managed through RevenueCat, Inc., our subscription infrastructure provider. We do not receive or store your full payment card details. We (via RevenueCat) may receive purchase status, product identifiers, transaction identifiers, and entitlement information needed to unlock and maintain your subscription.

1.4 Health & fitness data

If you choose to connect it, the App reads health and fitness data from Apple HealthKit (iOS) or Health Connect (Android):

Steps — your daily step totals.
Sleep — your sleep sessions and their duration.
Sleep you enter yourself — hours you type into the in-app sleep log when no device or tracker is recording sleep for you.

How we access it. Access is read-only — we never write data back to HealthKit or Health Connect, and we never modify or delete what is stored there. We read this data only after you grant explicit permission on the Health Integration screen. You can withdraw that permission at any time in the Health Connect app (Android) or in Settings → Privacy & Security → Health (iOS). The App is fully functional without it; connecting is entirely optional.

How we use it. To show your steps and sleep alongside your habits; to draw your trends and history; to inform your daily capacity forecast; and to show you correlations between these figures and your habit completion — for example, that you complete more habits on days following longer sleep.

How we store and share it. Your daily step total and sleep hours are transmitted to our servers and stored as one record per calendar day, so that the same history is available when you sign in on another device or on the web dashboard. Beyond that:

We do not sell your health data.
We do not use it for advertising or marketing.
We do not share it with other users, or show it in communities, challenges, or leaderboards.
We do not send it to our AI coach, or to any third-party AI or large language model provider.
We do not use it to train any machine learning model.
We do not share it with any third party other than the hosting provider that stores it on our behalf, or where we are compelled to by law.

How to delete it. Disconnecting on the Health Integration screen stops all further reading. Deleting your account (Settings → Privacy & Data) permanently deletes the health records stored on our servers.

1.5 AI coach data

When you use the AI coach, your messages and the relevant habit and goal information — habit names, streaks, and completion history — are sent to OpenAI, L.L.C., our AI provider, in order to generate a response. Your conversations are not used to train AI models. You can limit what the coach sees by turning off analytics sharing in Settings → Privacy. As stated in Section 1.4, your health and fitness data is never sent to the AI coach.

2. How We Use Your Information

To provide, maintain, and improve the App and its features.
To create and manage your account.
To process and validate subscriptions and restore purchases across your devices.
To sync your data so it is available when you sign in.
To respond to support requests and communicate with you.
To detect, prevent, and address technical issues or abuse.
To display your health and fitness data alongside your habits, and to show trends and correlations, where you have chosen to connect it.
To generate AI coaching responses about your habits and goals.
To comply with legal obligations.

3. Legal Bases for Processing

Where applicable law (such as the GDPR) requires it, we process your data on the basis of: performance of a contract (providing the App you requested), our legitimate interests (improving and securing the App), your consent (where requested), and compliance with legal obligations.

4. Sharing of Information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share data with:

Service providers that operate the App on our behalf, including hosting, analytics, crash reporting, subscription management (RevenueCat, Apple, and Google), and AI coaching (OpenAI).
Health and fitness data is treated separately. It is not shared with any of the parties above except the hosting provider that stores it for us. It is never shared with other users, never sent to our AI provider, and never sold.
Other users, only to the extent you choose to participate in shared communities, groups, or challenges.
Authorities when required by law or to protect rights, safety, and security.
Successors in the event of a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, subject to this policy.

5. Data Retention

We retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the App. You may request deletion of your account and associated data at any time (see Section 9). We may retain limited information as required by law or for legitimate business purposes such as fraud prevention and record-keeping.

Health and fitness records are deleted when you delete your account. You may also disconnect health access at any time, which stops any further collection.

6. Data Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Health, Wellness & Medical Disclaimer

Habits & Goals is a general wellness and productivity app. It is not a medical device, and it is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or health condition.

Nothing in the App — including step and sleep figures, trends, correlations, capacity forecasts, notifications, or any content generated by the AI coach — constitutes medical advice, and none of it is a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Health figures shown in the App are supplied by your device or entered by you, and are not clinically validated.

Always seek the advice of a qualified healthcare professional with any question you have about a medical condition, and before you begin or change any exercise, sleep, diet, or wellness routine. Never disregard professional medical advice, or delay seeking it, because of something you have read or seen in the App. If you believe you may have a medical emergency, contact your doctor or your local emergency number immediately.

8. Children's Privacy

The App is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will take appropriate steps to delete it.

9. Your Rights & Choices

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

Access, correct, or delete your personal information.
Object to or restrict certain processing.
Request a portable copy of your data.
Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.

To exercise these rights, contact us at support@habitsngoals.app. You can also manage or cancel subscriptions directly in your Apple App Store or Google Play account settings.

10. International Data Transfers

Your information may be processed in countries other than your own. Where required, we take steps to ensure appropriate safeguards are in place for such transfers.

11. Third-Party Services

The App relies on third-party services with their own privacy policies, including RevenueCat, Apple, and Google, and OpenAI. We encourage you to review their policies.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will revise the "Last updated" date above and, where appropriate, provide additional notice within the App.
