What we can and cannot read
Your raw thoughts stay completely private. But we do see the patterns and summaries your entries create. Here is exactly how that works.
The three tiers of your data
Think of it like a doctor who sees your vital signs but not your diary.
Here is the honest truth: We cannot read your journal entries, conversations, or photos. But we can see that you had a rough week, or that gratitude shows up often in your reflections. The raw thoughts are yours alone. The patterns help us make the experience better for you.
Fully Private (We Cannot Read This)
Your raw thoughts stay completely private. This data is encrypted on your device before it ever reaches our servers. We store it, but we literally cannot decrypt it. Only you hold the keys.
- Journal entries and daily reflections
- Chat conversations with the AI
- Photos you upload
- Habit names
- Habit completion notes
- Daily check-in summaries
- Voice transcripts
Summarized Insights (We See Patterns)
We can see these patterns to improve the AI experience and to notice if someone might need support resources. These summaries are abstracted. They show patterns, not your private thoughts.
- Weekly and monthly recap narratives
- Mood, energy, and stress trends
- Detected themes (gratitude, wins, challenges)
- Habit descriptions
- Pattern insights
- Journey milestones
Account Data (Required for the App)
Basic information we need to run the service. This is standard stuff that lets you log in, sync your devices, and manage your subscription.
- Email address
- Profile information
- App usage and preferences
- Subscription status
What actually exists in our database
A simplified look at our data tables and which tier they belong to.
entries
Your journal entries
Content is encrypted. We see only scrambled data.
conversations
Your AI chat messages
Fully encrypted. We cannot read any messages.
photos
Your uploaded photos

insights
Pattern summaries and trends
Aggregated patterns we use to improve your experience.
users
Your account
Basic account info for login and billing.
Note: This is a simplified view. Additional system tables exist for authentication and sync, but they follow the same privacy principles.
Why do we see the pattern data?
Good question. We could encrypt everything. But then we could not improve your experience or notice when something matters.
When the AI notices you have mentioned feeling anxious three weeks in a row, that pattern helps us surface better prompts and resources. When we see gratitude appearing more often in your reflections, we know what is working.
We never see the specific words you wrote. We see: "user showed signs of stress this week" or "gratitude theme detected." Patterns, not private thoughts.
If this model does not work for you, we understand. But we believe this balance gives you both privacy and a better experience.
