Privacy Policy
Last Updated: March 12, 2026
1. Our Commitment to Privacy
SharedCalm is built on the foundation of trust. We believe that your most intimate communications should remain private and secure. Our "Safe Drop" and "Double-Blind Match" features are designed with your privacy at the forefront.
2. End-to-End Encryption
We use end-to-end encryption for all message content (Safe Drops, Journal entries). This means that only you and your intended partner hold the cryptographic keys to decrypt and read your messages. SharedCalm does not have access to, and cannot be compelled to provide, the content of your private communications.
3. Information We Collect
- Account Information: We collect your email address and profile identifiers used for authentication and connecting with your partner.
- Cryptographic Data: We store your public keys on our servers to facilitate the secure exchange of encrypted data.
- Optional Mood Data: If you use the mood check-in feature, this data is stored to facilitate sharing with your partner.
- Anonymized Usage: We may collect anonymized statistics (e.g., feature usage frequency) to improve the platform experience. We do not track your location or use third-party advertising cookies.
4. Data Deletion and Retention
SharedCalm provides a "Right to be Forgotten." When you initiate an account deletion in the app:
- Your account record and personal profile are permanently purged.
- Your private journal entries are permanently deleted.
- Any shared "Safe Drops" sent to a partner will be removed from your device and the server. Please note that data already delivered to a partner's device remains under their control.
5. Age Restrictions
SharedCalm is intended for use by adults (18+). We do not knowingly collect data from individuals under the age of 18. If we become aware of such data, we will take immediate steps to delete it.
