Welcome to Reflectary, an innovative journal app designed to enhance your journaling experience using the power of Artificial Intelligence. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, process, and protect your personal information. By using the Reflectary app, you consent to the practices described in this policy.

1. Information Collection

We collect information in the following ways:

User-Provided Information:

This includes the data you input directly, such as your chosen writing style, text entries, and voice recordings.

Automatically Collected Information:

Our app, built on Expo with React-Native and Firebase, automatically collects certain information, such as usage data and device-specific information.

Third-Party Services:

We use Sentry for real-time error tracking and monitoring, which helps us maintain the reliability and performance of our app. Sentry may collect data related to app performance and errors. We also use the OpenAI API to power our AI-driven content generation. This may involve processing your text inputs and voice recordings to generate journal entries.

Your information is used to:

  • Create personalized AI-powered journal entries.
  • Provide app functionality, including voice-to-text transcription.
  • Improve app features and user experience.

We do not sell your data. Data may be shared in the following scenarios:

  • With service providers for app functionality (e.g., Firebase services).
  • If required by law or to protect the rights and safety of our users and the public.
  • With your consent or at your direction.

4. Data Security

We prioritize your privacy and data security. We use industry-standard measures, including Firebase's security protocols, to protect your information. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure.
