Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 2025

Introduction

Motivation Daily is designed to meet the Apple App Store Review Guidelines and applicable privacy regulations. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, how it is used, and the safeguards we maintain so you can make informed choices about the app.

Using the app is optional and you may stay anonymous. When you do share information with us, we limit collection to what is needed to deliver motivation features, keep the service secure, and support your experience.

Summary of Our Data Practices

  • Purpose: Data is used to deliver app functionality, personalize motivation content, maintain subscriptions, and monitor performance.
  • Tracking: We do not track you across apps or websites and do not use third-party advertising SDKs.
  • Sharing: Information is shared only with vetted service providers (Supabase, RevenueCat, OpenAI, Apple) under strict contractual safeguards.
  • Controls: You can review, export, or delete data at any time from Settings > Privacy Controls within the app.
  • Security: We apply encryption, access controls, and regular monitoring to protect your information.

Information We Collect

Optional Account Data

  • Account Profile: If you create an account, we store your email address and profile preferences to sync data across devices.
  • Motivation and Goal Data: Daily check-ins, mood entries, goals, habits, and reflections you actively record in the app.
  • User-Generated Content: Notes, journal entries, or custom prompts you save to personalize your experience.

Support and Feedback

  • Device Information: Device model, operating system version, app version, and language settings to optimize performance.
  • Diagnostics: Crash logs and error reports to detect bugs and reliability issues.

We do not collect your contacts, photos, precise location, or other information that is unrelated to the motivation experience.

You can use Motivation Daily without signing in. When you stay anonymous, data remains on your device and is not linked to any identifier stored on our servers.

How We Use Your Information

  • App Functionality: Deliver core features such as goal tracking, reminders, and personalized motivation content.
  • Personalization: Tailor insights and recommendations to the habits and goals you record.
  • Subscription Management: Validate purchases and manage access to premium content through RevenueCat and the App Store.

  • Legal Compliance: Fulfill obligations such as responding to lawful requests and maintaining records required by regulation.

Data Storage and Security

Data Storage

We use Supabase, a secure and privacy-focused backend service, to store your data. Your data is encrypted in transit and at rest. For anonymous users, data is stored locally on your device.

AI Processing

Our AI-powered features use your motivation data to provide personalized insights. This processing happens securely and your personal data is never used to train general AI models.

Security Measures

  • End-to-end encryption for sensitive data
  • Regular security audits and monitoring
  • Secure authentication and access controls
  • Data minimization practices

Each provider is bound by privacy and security obligations that match or exceed Apple's requirements. They may only process your information on our behalf and may not sell or use it for advertising.
