Privacy Policy

Effective date: November 6, 2026

Thoughts Garden (“the app”) is published by Daniel Diaz, Colombia (“we”, “us”). This policy explains what data the app handles, where it goes and what you can do about it.

The short version

Your thoughts live on your device and in your own private iCloud. We never see them.
When you transform a thought, only that thought’s text is sent to an AI model to write the reframes. It is not used to train models.
There are no accounts, no ads and no tracking. The Firebase services the app relies on may collect limited diagnostic data, which is not linked to your identity.
You can delete everything from Profile at any time.

1. Data stored on your device and in your iCloud

The app stores the thoughts you write, the reframes you keep, your garden (leaves, trees, reviews, achievements), the name and answers you give during onboarding, and your reminder settings.

This data is saved on your device and synced through Apple’s iCloud to your own private iCloud database. Apple operates iCloud under its own privacy policy. We have no server that receives this data and no way to read it.

2. Data sent to process a transformation

When you choose to transform a thought, after you accept the one-time notice, the app sends:

the text of that one thought,
the language the reframes should be written in,
the app’s own instructions for the model.

Your name, onboarding answers, other thoughts and garden are not sent.

The request is processed by Google’s Gemini models through Firebase AI Logic (Google Cloud), in the United States. Under Google Cloud’s terms, this content is not used to train Google’s models. We do not store the request or the response on any server of ours; the reframes are returned to your device. See Google’s privacy policy and the Firebase privacy information.

Please do not include information in a thought that you do not want processed by an AI service.

3. Service data

To work, the app relies on these providers. None of them receives your thoughts or garden.

Provider	Purpose	Data involved
Apple (App Store, StoreKit)	Subscription purchases and billing	Handled by Apple; we never see your payment details
RevenueCat	Checking your subscription status	A random anonymous app ID, purchase and subscription history, basic device data (such as OS version and app version)
Firebase App Check (Google)	Confirming requests come from the genuine app	An Apple App Attest token and a Firebase installation identifier
Firebase Remote Config (Google)	Delivering the app’s AI instructions	A Firebase installation identifier and basic device data

This data is used only to run the app. It is not used for advertising, it is not sold and it is not linked to your identity by us. See RevenueCat’s privacy policy.

4. What we do not do

No account, login, email or phone number is required.
We do not add analytics, advertising or tracking SDKs, and we do not track you across apps or websites. Firebase App Check and Remote Config may send Google limited diagnostic data about how those services perform. It is not linked to your identity and it is not used for advertising.
We do not sell or share personal data.

5. Notifications

Reminders are local notifications scheduled on your device. No notification data leaves your device.

6. Retention and deletion

Your data stays on your device and in your iCloud until you delete it.

Profile → Delete all my data erases every thought, leaf, tree and review from this device at once, and from your iCloud the next time the device syncs (it needs a network connection and to be signed in to iCloud).
Deleting the app removes the local copy; iCloud data can also be removed in your device’s iCloud settings.
If your subscription ends, your garden is not deleted.

Deleting your data does not cancel your subscription. Manage it in the App Store.

7. Your rights

Depending on where you live (for example under Colombia’s Law 1581 of 2012, the GDPR or the CCPA), you may have the right to access, correct or delete your personal data. Because your content lives on your device and in your iCloud, you control it directly in the app. For anything else, contact us at the address below.

8. Children

The app is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their data.

9. Changes

If this policy changes, we will update this page and its effective date. Significant changes will be noted in the app’s release notes.
