HabitFlow Privacy Policy
Last updated: November 2025
Privacy by Design
HabitFlow is built with privacy as a core principle. The app works 100% offline, requires no account, and stores all your data locally on your device. We believe your habits are personal, and they should stay that way.
Information We Collect
We Don't Collect Your Data
HabitFlow is designed to work completely offline. Your habit data never leaves your device.
- All habits, completions, and streaks are stored locally on your device
- No cloud sync or backup to external servers
- No account creation required
- No personal information collected
- No analytics or tracking SDKs
- No internet connection required for any feature
Data Stored on Your Device
HabitFlow stores the following information locally on your device:
- Habits you create (names, icons, colors, descriptions, categories)
- Habit schedules and frequency settings
- Completion records and status (done, skipped, failed)
- Streak information and statistics
- Reminder settings and notification preferences
- Vacation periods and streak freezes
- App preferences and customizations
Important: This data is stored using iOS native storage (Core Data) and is protected by your device's security features, including encryption and passcode/biometric protection.
Limited External Communication
The only external communication occurs for:
- Subscription purchases: Processed securely through Apple App Store
- Subscription verification: Periodic checks with Apple's servers to verify premium status
We receive only subscription status from Apple - no payment details or personal information.
How We Use Your Information
Since we don't collect your information, there's nothing to use. Your data exists only on your device for the purpose of:
- Displaying your habits and tracking progress
- Calculating streaks and statistics
- Showing visualizations (heatmaps, calendars, charts)
- Sending local notifications as reminders
- Enabling premium features based on subscription status
Data Storage and Security
Local Only
All data stored locally using iOS Core Data framework with native encryption.
Device Protected
Data protected by your device passcode, Face ID, or Touch ID.
No Transmission
Your habits and progress are never transmitted to any server.
You Control
Delete the app to permanently remove all data from your device.
Notifications
HabitFlow uses local notifications to remind you about your habits. These notifications are:
- Scheduled entirely on your device
- Not transmitted to any external server
- Fully customizable in the app settings
- Can be disabled at any time through iOS Settings
Third-Party Services
Apple App Store
We use Apple's StoreKit for in-app purchases. Apple handles all payment processing according to their Privacy Policy. We only receive subscription status information from Apple.
HabitFlow does not use any other third-party services, analytics, advertising networks, or tracking SDKs.
Your Rights and Choices
- Full Control: All your data is on your device under your control
- Data Deletion: Delete the app to remove all data permanently
- Notifications: Enable or disable reminders in app settings or iOS Settings
- Subscription: Manage subscriptions through your Apple ID settings
Children's Privacy
HabitFlow is safe for users of all ages because we don't collect any personal information. The app can be used by children under parental guidance. No account creation or personal data is required.
Data Backup
HabitFlow data may be included in your device's iCloud or local backups if you have iOS backup enabled. This is controlled by your device settings and Apple's backup encryption. We do not have access to your backups.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy occasionally. Since HabitFlow works offline, any changes will be communicated through app updates. The "Last updated" date above reflects the most recent version.
