Privacy Policy — ActiveMind

Last updated: April 15, 2026

Hi. This is the privacy policy for ActiveMind, an iOS app built by Chuy Dominguez. I wrote this in plain language because you deserve to know what's happening with your data, and the short version is: almost nothing.

The short version

• Your data stays on your iPhone. The app is local-first. I don't have a server, there's no analytics, no tracking pixels, no ad network, no third-party SDK that phones home.
• Apple Health data never leaves your device. ActiveMind reads your steps, sleep, and heart-rate data from HealthKit to show you things. It never uploads any of it.
• iCloud sync is optional. A few items (streak, mood check-ins, journal, profile, weekly review) can sync across your own Apple-ID devices via Apple's iCloud Key-Value Store. That's Apple's encrypted iCloud — I can't see it. You can turn this off in the Profile tab.
• Two external services are queried — Google Maps (nearby places + photos) and Open-Meteo (weather). Only coarse location is sent. Neither service receives your name or any identifying data.
• No ads. No tracking. No analytics. No accounts.

What's collected and where it lives

On your device only (never sent anywhere)

• Name, step goal, and interests you choose during onboarding
• Mood check-ins and journal entries
• Activity history and streak
• Home location for the "Exit Confetti" animation (stored in iOS Keychain, encrypted)
• Rot Clock timestamps
• Sleep analytics history

Synced to your own iCloud (encrypted by Apple, not readable by me)

• Streak counters
• Mood check-in history
