Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2026-03-0

This policy explains how the "Hormia" app (the "App") handles user data.

1) Quick summary

- The App stores your health and personal logs locally on your device.

- We do not sell your data.

- Ads may be displayed using third-party advertising networks (if ads are enabled in the App).

- “Enable analytics” is optional and OFF by default. It is only enabled after your consent.

- Feedback sharing is optional and may upload ticket details to our secure support database if you explicitly choose to send a report.

- We do not send the content of your health logs (period dates, symptoms, pregnancy information, notes) to analytics/crash reporting services.

2) Data we process

2.1 Data you enter in the App (stored locally)

The App may include:

- Period dates and cycle settings.

- Daily logs (symptoms, mood, pain, notes).

- Pregnancy settings (if pregnancy mode is enabled).

- App settings (language, notifications, optional name).

This health-related data is stored locally on your device and is not sent to our servers.

2.2 Device capabilities

The App may access certain device features only to provide specific functions, such as:

- Local notifications.

- File access to save/restore a backup when you use export/import.

2.3 Analytics, crash reporting and ads

The App may use trusted third-party services for:

- Advertising (to display ads)

- Analytics (for usage statistics) — when analytics is enabled

- Crash reporting (for app stability) — when analytics is enabled

These services may automatically collect technical and usage information, such as:

- Device type and model

- Operating system version

- App version

- Language and country (approximate location)

- IP address

- Advertising identifiers (where available)

- Crash logs and performance diagnostics

- Ad interaction data (impressions, clicks)

2.4 Feedback & Support (Optional)

If you choose to use the "Send Feedback" feature to report an issue or suggestion:

- You may choose to upload a ticket copy to our secure support database before sending an email.

- This upload is optional and initiated only by your action.

- Data uploaded includes: Ticket description, reproduction steps, app version, device info (OS/model), and basic context (locale/screen size).

- Purpose: To help us track and resolve technical issues or implement suggestions.

- Retention: Feedback tickets are retained for support purposes and then deleted.

Important:

- Analytics/Crash reporting is only active if you consent inside the App.

- We do NOT send the content of your health logs (period data, symptoms, pregnancy information, or personal notes) to these services.

3) How we use data

We use data locally to:

- Compute predictions and show your calendar.

- Generate reports and statistics.

- Export PDF reports when requested.

- Create and restore backups.

- Schedule local reminders if you enable them.

We use third-party analytics and crash reporting tools to:

- Improve app performance and stability.

- Understand general app usage trends.

- Fix bugs and technical issues.

Data is processed based on this policy and your device/app settings when you use the App.

4) Local storage and backups

4.1 Local storage

Your data is stored in a local database on your device.

4.2 Backup & restore

The App can:

- Save a backup file to your device.

- Share a backup file via other apps, if you choose to.

Encryption note:

Backup files are NOT encrypted. If you share a backup using external apps/services, that file becomes subject to their policies, so please share only with trusted parties and keep it in a safe location.

5) Ads — if enabled

If we enable ads, we may use third-party advertising networks.

These networks (and their partners) may collect certain data for ad delivery, measurement, and fraud prevention, such as:

- Advertising identifiers (where available).

- Device/app technical information (device type, OS version, language, approximate location/country, IP address).

- Ad interaction data (impressions, clicks).

We do not send your health log content (symptoms/mood/notes) to ad networks.

For more details, please refer to the privacy policies of our advertising partners (e.g., Google).

6) Paid services and subscriptions — if enabled

The current version does not include subscriptions or in-app purchases.

If enabled in the future, payments will be handled by the app stores (Google Play / Apple App Store) and this policy may be updated accordingly.

7) Sharing with third parties

In general, we do not share your data with third parties.

Possible exceptions:

- If ads are enabled: ad/technical data may be shared with AdMob as described.

- If you share a backup file: sharing is performed via the app/service you choose.

- Legal obligations.

8) Permissions

The App may request permissions (notifications, file access) only when needed for specific features. You can manage permissions in your device settings.

9) Data deletion

You can delete all data from within the App. This removes local data on this device.

If you created backups on your device or shared them elsewhere, you must delete those files separately.

10) Children’s privacy

The App is not intended for children under the legal age under 16 (EU) . If you believe a child has used the App and provided data, contact us.

11) Changes to this policy

We may update this policy when features change (e.g., ads, subscriptions, integrations). The "Last updated" date will be revised.

You should review this policy periodically.
