Security
We value your trust in providing us your Personal Information, thus we are striving to use commercially acceptable means of protecting it.

This is also the case for anyone that we share your information with and who carries out services on our behalf. When we no longer need to use your personal information and there is no need for us to keep it to comply with our legal or regulatory obligations, we’ll either remove it from our systems or anonymize it. If your data is transferred to a different country, it will still be subject to confidentiality and appropriate security measures.

AI Data Processing
Our app uses AI technology (OpenAI's GPT) to generate responses based on your journal entries. This process involves analyzing the text of your entries to understand and respond to your prompts.

All analysis is performed on our servers and is subject to stringent security measures.
Data Protection
We understand the sensitive nature of the journal entries you entrust to us. As such, we have implemented robust security measures designed to protect your data both when it is transmitted to our servers and when it is stored. Data is encrypted during transmission and at rest on our servers.
