Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Moodie App Inc. ("Moodie," "we," "us," or "our") provides a mindful daily mood, hydration, and cycle logging companion via our mobile application and cloud synchronization API. This Privacy Policy outlines the types of information we collect, how it is stored and protected, and the controls you have over your data.

By creating an account or using Moodie, you consent to the data practices described in this policy.

2. Information We Collect

We only collect information necessary to deliver and sync your personal journaling rituals.

A. Account Information

When you register an account, we collect:

• Email Address: Used for account identity, password resets, and essential security notifications.
• Account Credentials: Passwords are cryptographically hashed using industry-standard hashing algorithms (Bcrypt/Argon2) before storage; plaintext passwords are never stored or accessible by us.
• Profile Preferences: Optional nickname, timezone, and notification preferences.

B. Journaling & Wellness Data

When you use the app's tracking features, the following data is logged to your private account:

• Mood Logs: Primary emotion states, self-reported mood intensity scores, and custom situational tags (e.g., "Workout", "Family", "Work deadline").
• Personal Notes: Optional reflection entries and free-form journal text accompanying your mood check-ins.
• Hydration Entries: Daily water intake values (ml/oz), customized target goals, and quick-add log timestamps.
• Cycle & Symptom Data: Optional menstrual cycle dates, symptom tags (e.g., fatigue, cramps), and energy levels.
• Streak & Badge Achievements: Calculated milestone markers (e.g., "Hydration Hero", "Mindful Week") reflecting your consistent usage.

C. Technical & Device Diagnostics

To ensure high service reliability and detect bugs, we may collect minimal technical metadata including app version, operating system version, and anonymous crash telemetry. This technical data is strictly decoupled from your journal entries.

3. How We Use Your Information

We process your data solely for the following purposes:

• Providing Core Services: Syncing your check-ins, hydration milestones, and cycle logs seamlessly across your authenticated devices.
• Personal Insights: Generating personal patterns and correlation trends (e.g., showing how hydration levels align with morning energy) computed directly for your private view.
• Account Security: Verifying logins, preventing unauthorized access, and managing password recovery sessions.
• Product Support: Responding to user-initiated support requests or technical troubleshooting.

4. Data Storage & Security Measures

We treat your emotional and physiological logs as sensitive health and wellness records:

• Encryption in Transit: All communications between the Moodie mobile client and our API servers are encrypted using modern Transport Layer Security (TLS 1.3).
• Encryption at Rest: Database records, encrypted tokens, and backups are stored in secure cloud environments protected by AES-256 encryption.
• Token-Based Authentication: Session management uses signed, revocable authentication tokens.
• Strict Access Controls: Access to production databases is restricted to authorized operations personnel under multi-factor authentication and strict least-privilege protocols.

5. Sharing & Third-Party Services

We will never sell, lease, or monetize your journal notes, mood records, or cycle history to data brokers or advertisers.

We only share data with trusted infrastructure service providers necessary to operate our platform (such as cloud hosting and transactional email dispatchers for password resets). All such providers are bound by strict Data Processing Agreements guaranteeing confidentiality and security.

We will only disclose data to law enforcement if compelled by a lawful court order or valid legal subpoena, and will notify you where legally permitted.

6. Your Rights & Data Ownership

Regardless of your geographic location, we respect your full ownership over your wellness records:

• Data Portability: You may request an export of your complete historical entries, logs, and streaks in standard JSON format at any time.
• Correction & Editing: You can edit or delete individual mood entries, hydration logs, and tags directly within the app.
• Permanent Account Deletion: You can delete your account and all associated mood, hydration, and cycle records permanently via the app settings or by contacting our team. Deletion removes all records from our active databases immediately.

7. Children's Privacy

Moodie is not directed toward children under 13 years of age (or under 16 in certain jurisdictions). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If we discover that a child has provided us with personal information, we will take immediate steps to delete such records.

8. Changes to This Policy

If we make material changes to how we collect or handle your personal information, we will notify you through an in-app notice or via email prior to the changes taking effect.
