# Privacy Policy
**Effective Date:** May 14, 2026
This privacy policy applies to the Burnt Thoughts mobile application (hereby referred to as "Application") for mobile devices that was created to provide a stress-relief experience.
## What information does the Application obtain and how is it used?
### 100% Local Processing - No Data Collection
**We do not collect, store, transmit, or save any data, text, or personal information.**
The core feature of this Application allows you to type out thoughts, feelings, or stressors. All text you enter is processed **strictly locally on your device**. It is completely temporary and is permanently deleted from your device's memory the moment the "burn" animation is triggered. Your private thoughts never leave your phone.
We do not have servers, databases, or any capability to view, store, or access your data.
## Third-Party Services and Advertising
While we do not collect any data ourselves, the Application is supported by advertisements and uses Google AdMob as a third-party advertising provider.
These third parties may use cookies, web beacons, and other tracking technologies to collect information about your use of the Application and other websites across different devices. This information may be used to analyze and track data, determine the popularity of certain content, and deliver advertising targeted to your interests.
Google's advertising requirements can be summed up by Google's Advertising Principles. They are put in place to provide a positive experience for users.
For more information on how Google collects and uses your data, please visit the Google Privacy Policy:

## Do third parties see and/or have access to information obtained by the Application?
We do not share any information with third parties because **we do not collect any information**. The only data processed externally is the standard analytics and ad-serving data collected directly by Google AdMob, as mentioned above. **Your typed thoughts are never saved, transmitted, or shared with anyone.**
## Children
We do not use the Application to knowingly solicit data from or market to children under the age of 13. Since we do not collect or store any user data, there is no risk of us holding information belonging to minors.
## Security
Because everything you do in the Application remains strictly on your local device and is immediately deleted after use, there is no risk of your inputs being breached from external servers. We do not maintain any files or records of your activity.
## Changes
This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time for any reason. We will notify you of any changes to our Privacy Policy by posting the new Privacy Policy here. You are advised to consult this Privacy Policy regularly for any changes, as continued use is deemed approval of all changes.
