MoodGarden - Stress Watch - Privacy Policy

Last Updated: 17/05/2025

This Privacy Policy describes how MoodGarden - Stress Watch ("we", "our", or "us") collects, uses, and protects your information when you use our mobile application.

Data Collection and Storage

MoodGarden stores your mood entries, stress indicators, and wellness metrics locally on your device. We use your device's local storage to save and retrieve this sensitive information, ensuring your mental health data remains private and secure.

Local-Only Storage

MoodGarden operates with local-only storage by default. All your mood entries, stress patterns, and wellness data remain on your device and are not accessible by us or any third parties unless you explicitly choose to share them.

Optional Cloud Backup (If Enabled)

In future versions, you may have the option to enable cloud backup via iCloud or Google Drive. This feature will be explicitly opt-in, and no backup will occur until you authorize it in Settings. All backup data will be encrypted before upload.

Analytics and Performance

We may use anonymous, aggregated analytics to improve app performance and user experience. This data does not include your personal mood entries or health information. Analytics are used solely to enhance app functionality and identify areas for improvement.

Security

We recommend securing your device with a passcode, biometric lock, or device encryption to prevent unauthorized access to your mental health data. We do not have access to your device or the ability to recover your data if device security is compromised.

Your Rights

You have complete control over your mental health data. You can delete any mood entry, stress record, or wellness metric at any time. Under data protection regulations, you have rights to access, modify, or erase any data stored within the app.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy occasionally. When changes occur, the "Last updated" date will be revised, and a summary of key updates may be provided within the app. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.

Data Storage and Security

Your sensitive health and mood data is stored with the highest level of security using industry-standard encryption. We implement appropriate security measures to protect your information against unauthorized access, alteration, or destruction.

These services have their own privacy policies and data handling practices.
