Soulmate ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use the Soulmate mobile application and related services (collectively, the "Service"). Please read this policy carefully. If you do not agree with the terms of this Privacy Policy, please do not access the Service.
1. Information We Collect
Information you provide directly:
- Account data: Email address and password (or Apple ID credentials) when you create an account.
- Profile information: Name or display name you optionally provide.
- Conversation content: Messages, voice recordings, and images you send within the app.
- My Day data: Mood check-ins, habits, goals, and daily intentions you enter.
- Journal entries: AI-generated journal entries based on your conversations.
Information collected automatically:
- Usage data: Interactions with the app, features used, session duration, and timestamps.
- Device data: Device type, operating system version, app version, and unique device identifiers.
- Crash reports: Error logs and diagnostic information to improve app stability.
- Push notification tokens: Device token to deliver personalized notifications (with your permission).
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Provide, operate, and maintain the Service, including AI responses personalized to your context.
- Process and respond to your messages using AI models (Anthropic Claude).
- Maintain your memory profile (mood history, habits, goals) to personalize AI interactions.
- Generate journal entries from your conversation history.
- Send push notifications for follow-ups, reminders, and check-ins (only with your consent).
- Process subscription payments and manage your account tier.
- Diagnose technical issues and improve app performance.
- Comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms of Service.
3. AI Processing & Third-Party Services
The core AI functionality of Soulmate relies on third-party services. When you send a message, your conversation content (including relevant memory context) is transmitted to:
- Anthropic (Claude API): For generating AI responses. Your data is processed under Anthropic's API terms and privacy policy. Anthropic does not use API data to train their models.
- Groq (Whisper API): For transcribing voice messages. Audio is processed and transcribed; Groq does not retain audio after transcription.
- Supabase: Our backend infrastructure for database, authentication, file storage, and serverless functions. Data is stored in encrypted databases.
- OneSignal: For delivering push notifications. OneSignal receives your device push token.
- RevenueCat: For managing in-app subscriptions and purchase validation.
We do not sell your personal data to third parties. We do not use your conversation content for advertising.
4. Data Storage & Security
Your data is stored securely on Supabase infrastructure with encryption at rest and in transit (TLS 1.2+). Conversation history, memory layers, mood data, and journal entries are stored in a PostgreSQL database with row-level security — only you can access your own data.
Voice recordings are temporarily processed and the transcribed text is stored, not the original audio file. Images you send are stored in Supabase Storage with private access controls.
While we implement industry-standard security measures, no method of electronic storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security of your data.
5. Data Retention
We retain your data for as long as your account is active. Specifically:
- Conversation history: Retained indefinitely while your account is active to enable memory features.
- Mood and habit data: Retained indefinitely to power statistics and trends.
- Journal entries: Retained indefinitely while your account is active.
- Account data: Retained for 30 days after account deletion, then permanently removed.
You may delete your account at any time through the app settings. Upon deletion, all your personal data, conversations, and generated content will be permanently removed from our systems within 30 days.
6. Your Rights & Choices
Depending on your location, you may have the following rights:
- Access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
- Correction: Request correction of inaccurate personal data.
- Deletion: Request deletion of your personal data (right to be forgotten).
- Portability: Request an export of your data in a machine-readable format.

7. Children's Privacy
The Service is not directed to individuals under the age of 17. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 17. If we become aware that a child under 17 has provided us with personal information, we will take steps to delete such information from our servers promptly.
8. California Privacy Rights (CCPA)
If you are a California resident, you have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). We do not sell personal information. You have the right to know what personal information we collect, the right to delete it, and the right to non-discrimination for exercising your rights. To submit a CCPA request, contact us at soul.test.mate@gmail.com.
9. European Privacy Rights (GDPR)
If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA) or UK, we process your data under the following legal bases:
- Contract performance: Processing necessary to provide the Service you requested.
- Legitimate interests: App improvement, security, and fraud prevention.
- Consent: Push notifications and optional data processing.
You have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority. Our data processing is based in the United States (Supabase infrastructure).
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any material changes by updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, by sending a push notification or in-app notice. Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
