In short: Aparté collects no personal data. There is no account, no server, and your entries never leave your device. The only thing that can ever leave, if you explicitly allow it, is an anonymous crash report.
For any question about this policy: contact@zenith-ai.dev.
Nothing. Aparté asks for no account, no email, no phone number. We operate no server that receives your data. We use no analytics and no advertising, and we embed no third-party trackers.
Everything you write — text, moods, emotions, tags — is stored in an encrypted database (SQLCipher, AES-256) on your device. The encryption key is random and never stored in plain form: it is sealed by your master password (derived with Argon2id), by your device's secure hardware if you enable biometrics, and by your recovery phrase if you generate one.
We have no technical means of reading your entries. If you lose both your password and your recovery phrase, nobody — including us — can recover your journal.
The analysis that suggests a mood from your words runs entirely on your device. No text is ever sent over the internet to be analysed. The suggestion is only a proposal: the mood that counts is the one you pick.
When you create a backup, Aparté produces an encrypted file that you save wherever you want (iCloud, Google Drive, your computer…). We don't host that file and have no access to it. If you choose the plain-text export, the app warns you explicitly before producing a readable file.
If the app crashes, it can send a technical report through Firebase Crashlytics (Google). This is off by default. It is only enabled if you answer "yes" during setup or in Settings, and you can turn it off at any time.
A report contains: the error and its stack trace, your device model, OS version and app version, plus an installation identifier generated by Firebase. A report never contains the content of your entries, your moods, your tags, or your password. We attach no personal identifier to these reports.
This data is processed by Google as a processor. Legal basis: your consent (GDPR Article 6(1)(a)), withdrawable at any time. See the Firebase privacy policy.
Aparté is a paid app. The transaction is handled entirely by Apple's App Store or the Google Play Store depending on your platform: we never see or store your payment details. The app contains no in-app purchases and exchanges no data with any payment service.
We do not sell, rent or share any personal data, for the simple reason that we hold none. The only third parties involved are those mentioned above (Google for optional crash reports, Apple or Google for purchases).
The GDPR grants you rights of access, rectification, erasure, portability and objection. With Aparté, you exercise these directly from the app, since you are the sole holder of your data:
You may also lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority (in France, the CNIL).
Aparté is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect any data about them.
Aparté is not a medical device. It provides no diagnosis and does not replace care from a health professional.
If this policy changes, the date at the top will be updated. Any change that would widen data collection would be asked of you explicitly inside the app, never imposed silently.
