# Privacy Policy – OptiMe
**Last updated: 24 September 2026**
OptiMe is a personal development app. It helps you understand your personality through the Big Five (IPIP-300) model and have private self-coaching conversations with an AI coach named Susan.
We designed OptiMe to be as private as possible. This policy explains what limited information we handle.
This policy covers the OptiMe app published by CoachMind on Google Play. It does not turn OptiMe into medical care, therapy, or crisis support.
---
## 1. What information we handle
We do **not** require you to create an account or give us your name, email, phone number, or any real-world identity to use the core app.
Depending on what you use, we may process:
- A random **device identifier** (used to save reports, preferences, and optional cloud features)
- Your **personality assessment answers, scores, and generated reports**
- **Chat conversations and notes** you create in the app (including Coaching Lounge / Ask Susan)
- **Profiles you add** (for example a comparison person for Partner Insights or Quick Check), including any label or photo you attach
- **Files you choose to upload** for a feature (for example a resume or job description for Interview practice)
- **API keys you enter yourself** for optional third-party AI providers
- **Subscription and entitlement status** from Google Play (so the app can unlock paid features). We do not receive your full card number
- Basic technical information needed to run the app (device type, app version, language, crash logs)
Personality reports and chats do not include your legal name or contact details unless you type them in yourself.
---
## 2. How we use this information
We use it only to:
- Generate and store your Big Five scores and reports
- Let you continue coaching conversations and use tools (Encyclopedia, Insights, Partner Insights, Quick Check, Career exploration, Interview practice)
- Remember settings and which features you have unlocked
- Operate optional cloud or hosted promo features when you use them
- Keep the app stable and fix bugs
We do **not** use your data for advertising, marketing profiles, or sale to third parties.
---
## 3. AI services
OptiMe may use AI in two ways:
1. **Features we host** (for example cloud report generation or limited hosted promo chat). Text needed for that feature is sent to our servers and to AI providers we use (for example Anthropic). Those providers process it under their own privacy policies.
2. **API keys you enter.** Requests go to the provider you chose (for example xAI, Anthropic, or DeepSeek). We do not control how that provider handles the text. You can remove the key in the app.
Do not put information in chats or uploads that you would not want an AI provider to process.
---
## 4. Payments
Paid features (full report generation and listed extras) are sold as a **Google Play subscription** or, when offered, a limited promo. Google processes the payment. We receive enough information to know that your device is entitled to those features. Billing, cancellation, and refunds follow Google Play’s terms.
---
## 5. Where data is stored
- **On your device by default** (local-first).
- **On our servers**, only if you use cloud or hosted features, linked to the device identifier — not to a name or email account.
- You can delete reports, chats, and other in-app data from the app’s data management controls.
- Stopping cloud features keeps new work on the device only. It does not automatically erase what already sits on our servers until you delete it in the app or contact us.
---
## 6. Sharing
We do not sell or rent your information.
We share data only:
- With AI providers involved in a feature you use (section 3)
- With Google, for Play billing and app distribution
- With service providers who help us run the app, under confidentiality obligations
- When required by law
Partner Insights and Quick Check stay on the device unless you use a cloud feature that syncs them. Other people’s profiles exist only because you added them.
---
## 7. Your choices
You can:
- Delete individual reports or all in-app data
- Stop using cloud features
- Remove API keys you entered
- Cancel a subscription in Google Play
- Contact us to ask what we hold against a device identifier, where we can identify it
---
## 8. Age
Big Five–style assessments are generally most appropriate for **older adolescents and adults**. OptiMe is intended for users **16 and older**.
Where local law allows younger teens to use apps, the **minimum age** is **13**. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
If you are under the age of legal majority where you live, use OptiMe only with a parent’s or guardian’s permission and supervision. Parents and guardians who allow that use are responsible for it.
---
## 9. Changes
We may update this policy. The latest version will always be at this URL. Continued use after a change means you accept the updated policy.
