What we collect

Nothing.

There is no sign-up, no login, no newsletter box, and no contact form. There is nowhere on this site to type your name or your email, so there is nothing for us to have. We could not send you an email if we wanted to.

What your device holds

16 things, in your browser's own local storage. They sit on your device, they are readable only by this site in this browser, and none of them is ever transmitted.

Your check-in aiw-journal-v1
The daily levels: sleep, mood, stress, energy, food, and hours slept. Written on this device as you go and sent nowhere.
Your journal aiw-journal-entries-v1
Everything you write on the journal pages, with any notes you add to old entries. Same arrangement: on the device, ours to never see.
Your plan pc_plan
What the planner has you doing, and any recipe you added from the Kitchen. Same arrangement: on the device, ours to never see.
Light or dark aiw-theme
Which of the two you picked, so the next page does not arrive in the wrong one.
Your paper colour aiw-tint
The tint you picked for the journal paper, if you picked one.
Your palette aiw-palette
Which of the nine palettes the quiz read you as, kept only if you pressed the button asking the journal to write on it. The quiz stores nothing else, and your answers are never kept at all.
What you did with today aiw-day-v1
For each thing your plan asked of you, whether you did it, changed it, skipped it, or set it aside, and what it was at the time. Also the one thing you said each day was about, where you set one, and which week this device last acknowledged, so a new week is announced once. Kept for eight weeks so a week can be reviewed, then dropped.
What you ate that the plan did not ask for aiw-food-log-v1
The name of anything you scanned, typed, or took off your shelf, when you had it, and its nutrition where any is known. A restaurant meal is stored with no nutrition, because none was measured. Kept eight weeks, the same as the day record.
What you scanned and what you decided aiw-scans-v1
For each scan, the product, the reading, and the decision you took after it. No photograph is ever kept. The fifty most recent are held, plus anything you marked to keep, and all of it travels with the journal export.
Your skincare routine and shelf aiw-routine-v1
Which products you told the scanner are in your morning and evening routine, and anything you kept on the shelf without adding to it. Used to tell you when a new product would double up on something you already use.
When you last read a week back aiw-reviewed
One date, so the weekly review is offered once rather than every morning.
Whether this device holds a membership aiw-plus-v1
A copy of what the App Store last told the app: whether a membership is active, when it ends, and when we last asked. Kept so the answer is instant and correct with no signal. Apple holds the purchase; we never see who you are.
How many free readings you have used this month aiw-scanmeter-v1
A month and a count, reset by the month changing. Counted on the device, and by nobody else.
Where each shopping line got to aiw-shop-state-v1
Whether something is still needed, bought, already in the cupboard, swapped for something else, or no longer wanted.
A journal entry you have not saved aiw-journal-draft
Whatever is in the box on the new-entry page, so closing the app mid-sentence does not lose it. Replaced by the next draft and cleared when you save.
Your evening reminder aiw-reminder
The time you asked for the evening nudge, if you turned it on. The notification is scheduled by your own phone; nothing about it leaves the device.

Clearing your browsing data erases every one of them, and so does a new device, a new browser, or a private window closing. That is the cost of our holding nothing.

Back your journal up yourself

Because we keep no copy, there is no copy. If your phone goes in a lake, the journal goes with it, and we cannot restore it for you. So please export it, and keep the export somewhere that backs itself up.

  1. Open the journal and press Export.
  2. In the app, iOS offers you Files. Choose iCloud Drive and it is backed up from that moment on. In a browser it downloads, and you can move it into iCloud Drive, Dropbox, or wherever you keep things that matter.
  3. To bring it back, on this device or a new one, press Import and pick the file. Importing merges rather than replaces, so a partial export cannot wipe a fuller journal.

Doing that once a month is enough for most people. The file is plain and readable, which also means it is yours in a way an account on somebody's server never quite is.

Where the edges are

Two places where something leaves your device, and one that no longer does. We would rather name them than let the paragraphs above imply more than they should.

Our host
The pages are served by Cloudflare. Like any web server, it records the usual request information, including your IP address, in its own logs. We do not build anything on top of that, do not join it to anything, and do not look at it to profile anyone.
No third parties on the page
Every page is served whole from our own origin, typefaces included. Loading a page here contacts nobody else: no font service, no CDN script, no embedded anything. The site's Content-Security-Policy enforces this rather than promising it.
Links you choose to follow
Product links go to Amazon and carry our Associates tag, so Amazon knows the visit came from here and we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. What you then do on Amazon is between you and Amazon; we are told nothing about it beyond what any Associate sees, which is a commission figure with no names attached. Research citations go to PubMed, the FDA, and similar. Nothing is sent to any of them until you click.

The site's Content-Security-Policy is set so the page cannot talk to anywhere else even if something tried. Search runs entirely in your browser against a file it downloads, so what you search for is never a request to anybody.

In the app

The iOS app carries the whole site inside it and loads from the bundle rather than the network, so most pages involve no request at all, and the ones that do are covered below. A few things there are worth stating plainly.

Content updates
So a corrected paragraph or a new post reaches you without an App Store update, the app checks our own server for published content and downloads it when it has changed. It only ever pulls content we published, checks a signature on every file before showing it, and keeps it on your device. The check sends nothing about you: no account, no identifier, no record of what you read. It is a download, not a report.
Apple Health
The journal can read how long you slept, and only that, and only after you grant permission in the iOS dialog. The figure goes straight into the journal's local storage on your device. It is not sent anywhere, and the app never writes anything back to Health. You can withdraw permission at any time in Settings, under Privacy and Security, then Health.
The evening reminder
If you turn it on, one notification a day asks how today was, at a time you chose. It is scheduled on your phone by your phone, using the standard iOS notification system. Nothing about it touches a server, and turning it off removes it entirely.
Sharing
The share button opens the standard iOS share sheet with a public link to the page you were reading. Where it goes from there is your choice, and we are not part of it.

Children

This is a general-audience site written for adults. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone, of any age, which makes the usual promise here an easy one to keep.

Your rights

Rules like the GDPR and the CCPA give you the right to see, correct, export, and delete what a company holds about you. We hold nothing about you, so there is nothing to request and nobody to ask. Your journal is already in your hands: the export button is the access right and the erase button is the deletion right, and neither needs our permission or our help.

If this changes

Any change that affects what leaves your device gets written here at the same time it ships, with the date at the top moved on. If we ever add something that genuinely collects data, it will be described here in plain words before it is switched on.
