Privacy Policy

Last Updated: September 18, 2025

Thank you for using MyJourney - Guided Journaling. We are committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what information our app collects, how it is used, and how it is protected.

1. Data Collection and Storage

  • No Cloud Storage:

    We want to be absolutely clear: MyJourney is a private, local-first application. We do not collect, transmit, or store any of your personal data on our servers. All of your journal entries, including your location data, photos, videos, voice recordings, notes, and waypoints, are stored locally on your device only.
  • Developer Access:

    The developer of MyJourney has no access to your personal information or the content of your journeys. We cannot view, access, or retrieve any data you create with the app.
  • Location Data:

    The app requires access to your device's location services to record your position on a map for your journeys. This location data is used exclusively to generate the GPX-routed map and is stored locally on your device as part of your journey file. It is never transmitted to us.
  • Media and Files:

    The app requests access to your device's camera, microphone, and photo library to allow you to add pictures, videos, and voice notes to your journeys. This media is also stored locally on your device and is not collected or accessed by the developer.

2. Data Sharing

  • User-Initiated Sharing:

    The app includes a feature to share your journeys with friends and family. This sharing is 100% user-initiated. You control what you share and with whom. When you share a journey, the app exports a GPX or JSON file from your device. This file is then sent directly to your chosen recipient via standard sharing methods (e.g., email, messaging apps). We are not involved in this process and do not see the data you are sharing.
  • Third-Party Services:

    MyJourney does not use any third-party analytics, advertising, or data collection services.

3. Data Security

Since all of your data is stored on your device, its security is as robust as your device's security measures. We encourage you to use device passwords, biometrics (Face ID/Touch ID), and other security features to protect your data.

4. Changes to this Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new policy on this page and through an in-app notice. Your continued use of the app after any changes signifies your acceptance of the updated policy.
