Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Vefena Team (“Vefena,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) handles information when you use the Vefena mobile application (the “App”).

Vefena lets you record personal observations, intensity, daily context, cycle preferences, notes, and optional attachments; review simple journal patterns; export journal entries; and create a Journal Summary PDF.

In the current version, journal information is processed and stored on your device. Vefena does not operate a server that receives your journal entries or attachments.

By using the App, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the App.

Information stored on your device

The App stores information you choose to enter or create, including:

• An optional display name and profile image
• Entry type, intensity, date and time, daily context tags, notes, and cycle preferences
• Optional photos and voice notes attached to journal entries
• Generated Journal Summary PDFs, report history, and export-related files while they remain in the App
• Coin balance, coin transaction history, StoreKit product identifiers, and StoreKit transaction identifiers used to prevent duplicate credit
• App preferences, including completion of the welcome flow and permission-related settings

Information sent to Vefena Team

The App does not automatically send journal data to Vefena Team. If you contact us by email, we receive the email address, message, attachments, and other information you choose to include.

Information not collected by the current App

• No advertising or cross-app tracking data
• No precise or approximate location
• No analytics events, usage profiles, or unique device identifiers sent to Vefena Team
• No cookies or web beacons inside the App

Photos, camera, and voice notes

If you add an attachment:

• The App requests camera access only when you choose to take a photo.
• The App uses the iOS photo picker when you choose an existing image; it does not request unrestricted access to your photo library.
• The App requests microphone access only when you choose to record a voice note.
• Selected or recorded attachments are stored locally with the related journal entry until you remove that entry, delete journal data, or uninstall the App.
• Attachments are not used for facial recognition, biometric profiling, model training, advertising, or marketing.

In-app purchases

Apple processes payments for optional consumable coin packs. Through StoreKit, the App receives product and transaction information needed to complete the purchase, add coins, and avoid crediting the same transaction twice. Vefena Team does not receive your full payment-card details. Apple’s handling of purchase information is governed by Apple’s privacy policy.

Information stored on your device is processed locally to:

• Save and display your journal entries, attachments, profile preferences, and cycle preferences
• Calculate recorded counts, averages, trends, and co-occurrence summaries
• Create local CSV exports and Journal Summary PDFs
• Maintain your coin balance, apply the 20-coin Journal Summary charge, and record completed StoreKit purchases

Information you send by email is used to respond to your request, investigate issues, protect our legal rights, and comply with applicable law.

Journal information is not transmitted to Vefena Team. Information leaves the App only when you initiate an action, including:

• Using the iOS share sheet to send a CSV or PDF to a destination you choose
• Opening an external educational source, Privacy Policy, or Terms of Use link in the system browser
• Sending an email to Vefena Team

After you share a file, the selected destination handles it under its own terms and privacy policy. Vefena Team may also disclose information it actually holds when required by law or necessary to protect legal rights and safety.

Locally stored journal data is not transferred by Vefena Team. Apple services used for App Store distribution and purchases, your email provider, and any destination you select in the iOS share sheet may process information in other countries under their own terms and privacy practices.

Journal data is stored in the App’s local container and benefits from the security protections provided by iOS and your device settings. You are responsible for controlling access to your device and exported files.

• Use a device passcode and current iOS version
• Review the destination before sharing a CSV or PDF
• Remove entries, attachments, or journal data when no longer needed

No method of storage or transmission is completely secure. Files shared outside Vefena are no longer controlled by the App.

Local information remains on your device until you delete it or uninstall the App:

• Deleting an individual entry removes that entry and its locally stored attachments.
• Delete Journal Data removes journal entries, attachments, report history, profile details, and settings.
• Coin balance and purchase transaction records are retained when you use Delete Journal Data so completed consumable purchases are not credited twice.
• Uninstalling the App removes its locally stored data, including locally recorded consumable coin balances. Consumable purchases cannot be restored.

Email correspondence is retained only as reasonably necessary to respond, maintain support records, resolve disputes, protect legal rights, or comply with law. You may ask us to delete correspondence where applicable.

The App provides controls that let you:

• View, edit, or delete journal entries
• Update profile and cycle preferences
• Export journal entries as CSV and create Journal Summary PDFs
• Delete journal data from the Profile tab
• Control camera and microphone permissions in iOS Settings

Vefena Team cannot access journal data that remains only on your device. For questions about information you sent to us directly, or to exercise rights available under applicable law, email tqajggedym9962@outlook.com.

The App is intended solely for users aged 17 and older. We do not knowingly request personal information from anyone under 17. If you believe a person under 17 has sent information to Vefena Team, contact tqajggedym9962@outlook.com so we can take appropriate action.

The App uses Apple StoreKit for in-app purchases, the iOS share sheet for user-directed exports, PHPicker for selecting images, and the system browser for external links. Apple and destinations you choose are governed by their own terms and privacy policies. The current App does not include third-party advertising or analytics SDKs.

We may update this Privacy Policy when the App or applicable requirements change. We will update the Effective Date and, where appropriate, provide notice in the App or on this page. If a future version transmits additional information, this Policy and the App Store privacy disclosures must be updated before that processing begins.

This Privacy Policy is interpreted under applicable law. Nothing in this Policy limits privacy, consumer-protection, or other rights that cannot lawfully be waived in your jurisdiction.
