We (“us”, “our”, “I”) are committed to protecting the privacy rights of our users (“users”, “your”, “you”). This Privacy Policy (the “Policy”) explains how we handle your data when you use the Anxiety Relief app (the “Service”).

Information Collection and Use

The Anxiety Relief app is built with privacy in mind. We collect only anonymous data needed to improve performance and ensure smooth app operation. We never collect or store personally identifiable information.

Here’s how the app works:

  1. On-Device Processing: Anxiety tracking, breathing guidance, and exercise rendering are primarily performed directly on your device whenever possible to protect your privacy.
  2. Text and Input Access: The app uses the information you provide (such as mood ratings, journal entries, or answers to in-app questions) solely to deliver anxiety relief exercises, guidance, and insights. This information stays tied to your use of the app and is not used to personally identify you.
  3. Cloud-Based Support (When Needed): In some cases, your text inputs may be temporarily uploaded to secure third-party AI services for processing, such as generating personalized coping prompts or breathing routines. These are transmitted securely and deleted shortly after processing. We do not store your entries or AI responses permanently on our servers.
  4. Local Storage: You may choose to save exercises, mood logs, or journal entries locally on your device. We do not access or upload them.
  5. Anonymous Usage Data: We collect non-personal, anonymized usage statistics (e.g., feature usage frequency, crash reports) to help us improve the app’s performance and user experience. This does not include the content of your notes, entries, or any personal reflections.
  6. No Personalized Tracking: We do not use cookies, advertising IDs, or any tracking that can identify or profile you personally.
  7. No Ads or Ad Tracking: The Anxiety Relief app does not include third-party advertising or analytics that track individual behavior across apps.

Data Security

We use industry-standard security measures to protect the limited, anonymous data we collect. Any temporary data (like entries sent to an AI model for processing) is encrypted during transmission and deleted promptly after processing.

Children’s Privacy

The Anxiety Relief app is not intended for children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone, including minors.

Changes to This Policy

We may occasionally update this Policy. If material changes are made, we will notify users through the app or by updating the policy accessible within app settings.

AI Disclaimer

The Anxiety Relief app uses artificial intelligence to interpret your inputs and provide anxiety relief guidance, such as breathing exercises, grounding techniques, and cognitive reframing prompts. Processing may involve automated text analysis and content generation, but we do not review, analyze, or store your content beyond the brief processing required to provide the result. All AI operations are used strictly for fulfilling your request.

We do not store, review, or moderate the feelings, thoughts, or other content you enter into the app.
