Privacy Policy for Techno Habit

Last Updated: September 10, 2025

Welcome to Techno Habit ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our application.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect information about you in a variety of ways. The information we may collect via the Application includes:

Personal Data You Provide to Us

  • Account Information: When you register using Google Sign-In, we receive your name, email address, and profile picture as provided by Google.
  • Habit Data: We collect the names, icons, schedules, and completion history of the habits you choose to track.
  • Journal Entries: We store the content of your journal entries. This data is encrypted on the client-side before being sent to our servers to ensure your privacy.
  • Mood Information: We collect the mood you log each day.

2. How We Use Your Information

Having accurate information about you permits us to provide you with a smooth, efficient, and customized experience. Specifically, we may use information collected about you via the Application to:

  • Create and manage your account.
  • Synchronize your data across your devices (for logged-in users).
  • Provide you with AI-powered features, such as personalized motivational quotes, habit suggestions, and journal summaries.
  • Display your progress and statistics, like your weekly progress chart.
  • Improve the functionality and user experience of our application.
  • Monitor and analyze usage and trends to improve your experience with the Application.

3. Data Storage and Security

We use Firebase, a Google platform, for backend services, including authentication and database storage (Firestore).

We take the security of your data very seriously. Sensitive information, particularly your journal entries, is encrypted on your device using a key derived from your user identity before it is transmitted and stored in our database. This means that we, the application developers, cannot read your encrypted journal content.

While we have taken reasonable steps to secure the personal information you provide to us, please be aware that despite our efforts, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable, and no method of data transmission can be guaranteed against any interception or other type of misuse.

4. Use of AI and Third-Party Services

Our application utilizes Google's Gemini models via Genkit to provide generative AI features. When you request an AI-powered feature (e.g., a motivational quote, journal summary, or habit suggestion), we send relevant, non-personally identifiable data (such as your selected mood, completed habits, or recent journal entries) to these models to generate a response. Your private journal entries are only used for generating summaries when you explicitly request it.

5. Disclosure of Your Information

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personally identifiable information to outside parties. This does not include trusted third parties who assist us in operating our application, such as Google (for Firebase and Genkit), so long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential.

6. Your Data Rights

You have the right to access, update, or delete your information. As a logged-in user, your data is associated with your account. If you delete your account, your associated data will be removed. For guest users, all data is stored locally on your device and can be cleared by clearing your browser's local storage.

7. Policy for Children

We do not knowingly solicit information from or market to children under the age of 13. If you become aware of any data we have collected from children under age 13, please contact us using the contact information provided below.

8. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
