Polityka prywatności

This policy explains how Seweryn Michalak handles information when you use Eden.

1. Summary

Eden does not sell personal information, show third-party advertising, or use data for cross-app advertising. The app uses privacy-focused product analytics and uses Apple and RevenueCat to provide and manage a subscription required for access to the main app features after onboarding, including any eligible free trial.

2. Information handled by the app

Quiz activity, progress, and profile

Eden stores quiz answers, progress, streaks, saved reflections, preferences, and profile customisation needed to provide the learning experience. Most app activity is stored locally. If you choose an online feature such as ranking or Sign in with Apple, Apple provides an app-scoped account identifier and any name or relay email you choose to share. Ranking data and account state may be stored by the connected Apple service.

Telemetry events may include anonymous quiz-session completion, answer outcomes in aggregate, streak interactions, feature use, and subscription events. We do not send the text of personal reflections or quiz free-text entries to TelemetryDeck.

iCloud synchronization

When iCloud is available on your device, Eden can synchronize supported progress, Bible reading history, saved reflections, and settings through Apple’s iCloud and private CloudKit storage associated with your Apple Account. We do not receive your iCloud password or store this content on our own servers. Apple processes and stores synchronized data under its own privacy policy.

External Bible links

Eden opens Bible passages and daily texts in JW Library or on JW.ORG/WOL outside the app. These services are operated by their respective providers and apply their own privacy policies. Opening a link does not send your saved reflections to them.

App preferences and local data

Preferences and the content needed to operate the app are stored on your device. They remain there until replaced, cleared, or the app is deleted, subject to normal iOS backup and restore behaviour.

Privacy-focused analytics

Eden uses TelemetryDeck to understand whether the app works correctly, which features are useful, and how users return to the app over time. Events may include app launches, onboarding progress, feature interactions, app version, build, operating-system and device category, locale, performance, and sanitised error categories.

We do not intentionally send names, email addresses, message contents, precise coordinates, place names, advertising identifiers, or raw error messages to TelemetryDeck. TelemetryDeck receives an app-scoped pseudonymous identifier and limited technical event data. According to TelemetryDeck, IP addresses are not stored. See the TelemetryDeck Privacy Policy.

Purchases and subscriptions

Payments are processed by Apple through the App Store. We do not receive payment-card details. Eden uses RevenueCat to present offerings, validate purchases, restore purchases, determine entitlement status, and manage subscription access. RevenueCat may process an app user identifier, product and transaction identifiers, purchase history, subscription status, storefront, and related app/device metadata. See the RevenueCat Privacy Policy.

RevenueCat forwards purchase lifecycle events to TelemetryDeck so we can measure paywall performance, trials, purchases, renewals, cancellations, and retention. The app supplies RevenueCat with the TelemetryDeck app identifier and the same pseudonymous, hashed analytics user identifier. This lets the services correlate product events without us sending your name, email address, payment-card details, precise location, or advertising identifier.

Support and feedback

If you contact us, we receive the information you choose to provide, such as your email address and message. We use it to respond, investigate problems, and improve the app. Support correspondence is normally retained for no longer than 24 months after the last interaction unless a longer period is required by law or for legal claims.

Diagnostics

Apple may provide crash reports and diagnostic information depending on your device analytics settings. These reports can include technical information about the device, system, app version, and failure. We use them to improve reliability.

3. Purposes and legal bases

Where the GDPR applies, we process information to provide requested app features and purchases (performance of a contract), respond to support requests, maintain security and reliability, understand pseudonymous product usage (our legitimate interests), and comply with accounting, consumer-protection, and other legal obligations.

4. Service providers and international transfers

Relevant providers are Apple Inc. for App Store distribution and platform services, TelemetryDeck GmbH for privacy-focused analytics, RevenueCat, Inc. for purchase infrastructure, and the providers involved when you choose to contact support. Apple and RevenueCat may process information outside your country, including in the United States, using applicable contractual and legal safeguards. TelemetryDeck states that its app analytics infrastructure is hosted in the European Union.

5. Retention and deletion

Local app data remains until replaced, cleared, or the app is deleted. Apple and RevenueCat retain transaction records according to their policies and legal obligations. If iCloud sync is enabled, deleting Eden on one device does not necessarily delete its data from iCloud or other devices. You can manage Eden’s iCloud data in your Apple Account settings. TelemetryDeck analytics uses a pseudonymous app identifier. We may not be able to identify an event from a name or email address alone, but purchase events can be associated with an app installation. To request access to or deletion of data that can be identified, use our contact form and provide any relevant app or transaction details you are comfortable sharing. We will assess what we can identify and handle the request where applicable, subject to legal retention requirements.

6. Your rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to processing of identifiable information, and to receive portable data. EEA users may complain to their local supervisory authority; in Poland this is the President of the Personal Data Protection Office.

7. Children

Eden is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Contact us if you believe a child has provided personal information.

8. Security

We use reasonable technical and organisational safeguards, including platform-standard encrypted connections. No storage or transmission method is completely secure.

9. Changes

We may update this policy when the app, providers, or legal requirements change. The current version and its update date will remain available at this URL.
