Privacy Policy
The short version
- Your moods, notes and everything else you log are stored on your phone. You don't need an account to use Pixel Days.
- We don't show ads, we don't use analytics or tracking tools, and we never sell or share your data for advertising.
- Your journal only leaves your phone if you turn on Cloud Sync (Pro) or share or export something yourself.
- Purchases go through Google Play or the App Store, with RevenueCat checking whether you have Pro. We never see your payment card.
Who we are
Pixel Days (“the app”, “we”, “us”) is a mood tracker made by an independent developer, Devloop. If you have any questions about this policy, contact us at info.devloop@gmail.com.
What stays on your phone
Everything you enter is saved in a database on your device:
- Your daily mood ratings and any notes or tags you add
- Any extra trackers you create (for example sleep, energy or habits) and their entries
- Trophies and streaks you earn
- Your settings, such as your color palette, theme and reminder time
We can't see this data. It stays on your device unless you choose to sync, export or share it. Your phone's own backup service (such as Google or iCloud device backup) may include app data, depending on your phone settings. That is handled by Google or Apple under their own privacy policies.
Mood entries and notes can be personal and may relate to your health or wellbeing. We treat them as sensitive. We never use them for advertising, profiling or any purpose other than showing them to you.
What leaves your phone, and why
Purchases (RevenueCat, Google Play, App Store)
When you buy Pixel Days Pro, the payment is handled by Google Play or the Apple App Store. We use RevenueCat to check whether you have an active Pro subscription. To do this, RevenueCat receives:
- A random, anonymous app user ID created for your install
- Your purchase and subscription history for Pixel Days (product, price, dates, renewal status)
- Basic device information, such as your operating system and app version, plus your IP address, which is used to work out your country and currency
RevenueCat never receives your moods, notes or other journal data. We never receive your payment card details. Google and Apple process payments under their own privacy policies.
Cloud Sync (Pro, optional)
Cloud Sync is off unless you sign in to turn it on. It backs up your data and keeps it the same across your devices. It uses Supabase, a cloud database provider, to store your data. When you turn it on:
- Your account: you sign in with Google, Apple or an email link. We receive your email address and an account ID from that provider. We don't receive your password.
- Your journal: your trackers, entries (including notes and tags) and trophies are copied to your account so they can be synced. Your settings stay on your device.
Your synced data is sent over encrypted connections. Access rules on the database mean only your signed-in account can read or change your rows. We only access it when needed to keep the service running or to answer a support request you send us.
If your Pro subscription ends, sync pauses. Your data stays on your phone and in your account and is not deleted.
Things you share or export
You can export your data as CSV or JSON, or share a monthly poster image. These are only created when you ask for them, and they go wherever you send them through your phone's share menu. Once shared, they are handled by the app or person you shared them with.
Notifications
Daily reminders are scheduled on your phone. They don't go through a server, and we don't use push notifications.
What we don't do
- No ads and no advertising IDs
- No analytics, tracking or third-party SDKs that profile you
- No selling, renting or trading of your data
- No access to your contacts, location, photos, camera or microphone
Permissions
| Permission | Why |
|---|---|
| Notifications | To send your daily reminder at the time you choose. You can turn it off in the app or in your phone settings. |
| Internet | To check your Pro status, complete purchases and, if you turn it on, sync your data. |
How long we keep data
- On your phone: until you delete it in the app or uninstall the app.
- Cloud Sync: until you delete your account. When you do, your synced data and account are permanently deleted from our servers.
- Purchase records: kept by RevenueCat, Google and Apple as long as needed to manage your subscription and meet tax and accounting laws.
Your choices and rights
- Export: download all your data at any time from Settings → Your data.
- Delete: uninstalling the app removes all local data. If you use Cloud Sync, you can delete your account and all synced data from Settings in the app, or by emailing us.
- Subscriptions: manage or cancel Pro in Google Play or App Store subscription settings.
Depending on where you live (for example in the EU, UK or California), you may have the right to access, correct, delete or move your personal data, or to object to how it is used. Because most of your data never reaches us, you can do most of this yourself in the app. For anything else, email us and we will reply within 30 days. If you are in the EU or UK, you can also complain to your local data protection authority.
Where these laws apply, we process your data to provide the app and the Pro features you buy, and, for Cloud Sync, because you chose to turn it on. You can stop sync at any time by signing out.
Security
Data sent between the app and our service providers is encrypted in transit. Synced data is protected by access controls that tie each row to your account. No system is perfectly secure, but we keep the amount of data we handle as small as possible.
International transfers
Our service providers (RevenueCat, Supabase, Google and Apple) may process data in countries other than yours, including the United States. They protect it using legal safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses.
Children
Pixel Days is not directed at children under 13 (or the minimum age in your country), and we do not knowingly collect personal data from them. If you think a child has given us personal data through Cloud Sync, contact us and we will delete it.
Changes to this policy
If we change how we handle data, we will update this page and the date at the top. If a change is significant, such as a new kind of data leaving your phone, we will tell you in the app before it takes effect.
