Your feelings are yours. Period.

Our Privacy Philosophy

Emoodjee is built on a simple belief: emotional data is the most sensitive personal data that exists. We treat it that way. Privacy is not a feature we added — it is the foundation everything else is built on.

We will never sell your emotional data to advertisers, researchers, or any third party. Not today. Not ever.

What We Collect

When you use Emoodjee, we store the following data to provide and improve the service:

• Mood entries — your selected emoji, sentence (max 140 characters), timestamp, and AI-generated mood intensity score
• Auto-tags — emotion cluster, time of day, day of week, and contextual tags generated by the AI
• Weekly syntheses — AI-generated weekly narratives including headlines, patterns, recurring themes, and suggested actions
• Account data — email address or third-party sign-in identifier (Google or Apple) required to create your account
• Subscription status — managed through RevenueCat to process your premium subscription
• Analytics and crash reports — via Firebase Analytics and Crashlytics. We track screen views, feature usage events (e.g. check-in completed, paywall shown), and crash data to improve the app. These events never include your emotional content, sentences, or emoji selections
• Device information in feedback — when you submit feedback, we collect your app version, platform, OS version, device model, and locale to help us diagnose issues

What We Never Collect

• Precise location data — we do not use GPS or request location permissions. Firebase Analytics may derive your approximate location (country or city) from your IP address for aggregate analytics only
• Contact lists or phone data
• Health data from other apps or services
• Browsing activity or data from other apps on your device

How Your Data Is Stored

Your entries are stored securely in your private account, encrypted at rest and in transit using TLS 1.3 or higher. Your emotional data is never accessible to other users or exposed publicly.

AI Processing

Our AI generates personalized insights based on your entries. To produce micro-responses and weekly syntheses, your entry data (emoji, sentence, intensity, and recent context) is sent to Google’s Gemini AI service. Google processes your data under their API terms and does not use API inputs to train their models. Before any data is sent to the AI service, you are asked for explicit consent during onboarding. You can disable AI insights at any time in Settings.

AI-generated responses are stored alongside your entries in our database. We log AI usage (model used, timestamps) for rate limiting and service reliability — these logs do not contain your emotional content.

We do not use your emotional data to train general-purpose AI models. Your entries improve your personal experience only.

Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services:

• Supabase — authentication and cloud database (encrypted at rest and in transit)
• Google Gemini — AI service that processes your entries to generate micro-responses and weekly syntheses. Entry data (emoji, sentence, and recent check-in history) is sent via their API; Google does not use API inputs for model training
• RevenueCat — subscription management only; does not receive emotional content
• Firebase Analytics & Crashlytics — anonymous usage analytics and crash reporting. These services receive your user ID and feature usage events but never your emotional content, sentences, or emoji selections
• Google Sign-In & Apple Sign-In — optional OAuth authentication. We receive only your name and email address from these providers

We do not integrate any advertising SDKs. None of the services above receive your raw emotional content except Google Gemini, which processes it solely to generate your personal insights. All third-party services listed above provide data protection standards equal to or exceeding our own.

Data Sharing

We do not share your emotional data with any third party — advertisers, data brokers, researchers, or otherwise — without your explicit, per-action consent. The only exception is where required by law (e.g., a valid court order), and we will notify you unless legally prohibited from doing so.

Your Rights

You have the right to:

• Delete — permanently delete your account and all associated data directly from Settings. Deletion is immediate and irreversible
• Delete entries — remove individual mood check-ins at any time from within the app
• Access — view all your mood entries, insights, and weekly syntheses within the app. For a machine-readable copy of your data, contact us
• Correct — request correction of your personal information by contacting us. Individual mood entries cannot be edited but can be deleted and re-entered

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at our support page.

Push Notifications

With your permission, Emoodjee can send gentle check-in reminders and weekly insight notifications. You can enable or disable these individually in Settings. We do not send promotional or advertising notifications. All scheduled notifications are cancelled when you delete your account.

Biometric Data

Premium users can enable Face ID or fingerprint protection. This biometric data is handled entirely by your device’s operating system — Emoodjee never receives, stores, or transmits biometric data.

Children’s Privacy

Emoodjee is not intended for users under 18 years of age. We do not knowingly collect data from children. If you believe a child has created an account, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

Changes to This Policy

We will notify you of material changes to this privacy policy via in-app notification and email at least 14 days before they take effect. Continued use of Emoodjee after the effective date constitutes acceptance.
