All personal commitment data (resolutions, progress, personal notes, folders, comments, achievements) is stored locally on the user's device and is not transmitted to external servers unless you choose to share them with the community.
2.2 Information Collected When Sharing Dazims
When you choose to share your dazim with the community, the following information is collected and stored on our servers (Firebase):
