Collected Data

We only process personal data if this is necessary to provide the app:

  • Account data (email, first name, password – hashed)
  • Journal entries, goals, notes, and other data collected by the app
  • Daily self-ratings of energy, stress, motivation, and confidence (check-in feature)
  • Email communication (e.g. reminders, verification)

Processing of Personal Data by AI Features

As part of certain features of this application (e.g. for reflection, analysis, or generation of individual content), personal content – especially journal entries or goals – is analyzed by artificial intelligence (AI).

This processing is carried out on the basis of contract performance pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, as the AI-powered analysis is a core component of the features you have chosen to use. An isolated revocation of this processing while continuing to use the service is therefore not possible. If you do not wish to consent to this processing, you can delete your user account at any time (see section "Deletion of Data upon Account Termination").

Since AI-based features require analysis in plain text, the processing of these contents does not take place in encrypted form. Encryption would make the technical functionality of the AI application impossible, i.e. activating encryption may result in functional limitations.

Processing takes place:

  • exclusively to provide the selected AI services
  • using technically and organizationally appropriate security measures
  • exclusively on servers within the EU or with providers with recognized guarantees (e.g. standard contractual clauses under Art. 46 GDPR)
  • without disclosure to unauthorized third parties
