This Privacy Policy applies to:

  • The Chouz mobile app

  • Comply with legal obligations

We do not sell your personal information.

We do not use your personal information for third-party behavioral advertising.

4. How We Share Information

We may share information only as necessary to operate Chouz, including with:

  • Service providers / infrastructure providers (such as hosting, storage, and backend services)
  • Google Play / Google for subscription billing and purchase processing
  • Legal authorities if required by law, regulation, or valid legal process
  • Professional advisors (for legal, security, or compliance purposes) when necessary

We do not share your journal reflections for advertising purposes.

5. Data Retention

We retain personal data only as long as necessary to:

When you delete your account, we delete or anonymize personal app data as described in Section 8 ("Account Deletion").

6. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect your information.

No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. However, we work to protect your data and limit access to what is necessary.

7. Children's Privacy

Chouz is not directed to children and is not intended for use by children under the age required by applicable law in your region (for example, under 13 in some jurisdictions).

If you believe a child has provided personal information to Chouz, contact us at hello@chouz.app and we will take appropriate steps.
