Privacy Policy

Who we are

Nervous System Apps is a studio operated by Devgenie Studios(“Nervous System Apps,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). This Privacy Policy applies to the website at nervoussystemapps.com and to our iOS applications and related services (together, the “Services”).

By using the Services, you agree to the collection and use of information as described in this policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Services.

The short version

• We design for restraint. We collect the minimum we need to run the Services and improve the app.
• Health and wellness inputs are treated as sensitive. We are built to keep them on your device, we never sell them, and we never use them for advertising.
• We do not sell your personal information, and we do not run third-party advertising in our app.
• You can ask us to access or delete your information at any time by emailing sofia@devgeniestudios.com.

Information we collect

Information you give us

When you join our mailing list or contact us, we collect your email address and the contents of any message you send. If the app offers an account, we collect the information needed to create and maintain it.

Health and wellness inputs

Our apps are designed to help with nervous system regulation, so you may enter or generate health- and wellness-related information, such as how you are feeling, breathing or grounding sessions, mood, and similar inputs. We treat this as sensitive information. Wherever possible it is processed on your device and stays there. It leaves your device only if you explicitly choose a feature that requires it (for example, syncing or contacting support), and even then it is never sold and never used for advertising or data mining.

Usage and diagnostic data

To keep the app stable and understand what to improve, we collect limited analytics and crash diagnostics, such as which features are used, app performance, error and crash logs, and general device information (device model, operating system version, and app version). Where this data is provided to us, we use it in aggregated or de-identified form wherever practical, and we configure these tools to avoid collecting your name or contact details.

Technical information collected automatically

When you visit our website or use the app, our infrastructure and tools may automatically record technical information such as IP address, browser or device type, and timestamps. This is used to operate, secure, and troubleshoot the Services.

How we use information

• To provide, operate, and maintain the Services.
• To send you occasional product updates if you asked us to, and to respond when you contact us.
• To diagnose problems, fix bugs, improve stability, and develop new features.
• To keep the Services secure and prevent abuse or fraud.
• To comply with legal obligations.

We do not use your information for third-party advertising, and we do not make automated decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects about you.

How we share information

We do not sell your personal information. We share information only in the limited circumstances below, and only with parties that are required by contract to protect it to a standard at least equal to this policy.

• Service providers. Vendors that host our infrastructure, deliver email, and provide analytics or crash reporting, acting on our instructions.
• Apple.When you download or pay for an app, Apple processes that transaction and may share limited data with us under Apple’s own privacy policy.
• Legal and safety. When required by law, legal process, or to protect the rights, safety, and security of our users or the public.
• Business transfers. In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, where the recipient agrees to honor this policy.

Data retention

We keep personal information only for as long as needed for the purposes described here, or as required by law. We keep mailing-list emails until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete them. Diagnostic data is retained for a limited period and then deleted or aggregated. When information is no longer needed, we delete or de-identify it.

Your choices and rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or export your personal information, to object to or restrict certain processing, and to withdraw consent. These include rights under the EU/UK GDPR and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA). We do not sell or “share” personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising, and we will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights.

• Access or delete. Email sofia@devgeniestudios.com and we will respond within the time required by applicable law.
• Mailing list. Use the unsubscribe link in any email, or ask us to remove you.
• On-device data. You can delete information stored on your device by deleting it within the app or removing the app.
• Device permissions. You can change or revoke permissions (such as notifications) in your device settings at any time.

Children's privacy

The Services are not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your jurisdiction), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided us information, please contact us and we will delete it.

Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal information, including encryption in transit. No method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

International users

We operate from the United States. If you use the Services from outside the United States, your information may be processed in the United States and other countries that may have data protection laws different from those in your country. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for such transfers.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date above and, for material changes, provide a more prominent notice. Your continued use of the Services after an update means you accept the revised policy.
