1. Introduction

Rise & Affirm (“we”, “us”, “our”, “the App”, “the Service”) is committed to protecting the privacy of our users. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website (https://www.riseandaffirm.org/) or use our mobile application (the “App”).

By using the Service, you consent to the practices described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with this policy, please do not use the App or provide us your information.

2. What Information We Collect

We may collect information in two broad categories: (1) information you voluntarily provide, and (2) information collected automatically or via third parties.

2.1 Information You Provide

You might provide us with:

Name, email address, and other contact information (for example, when you contact support or submit the contact form).
Profile information or preferences (e.g. affirmation settings, chosen voices or messages).
Any messages, feedback, or content you type or store in the App (if applicable).
Optional information, if you choose to fill it in (e.g. demographic data, gender, etc.).

2.2 Automatically Collected Information / Usage Data

When you use the App or visit the website, we may automatically collect:

Device identifiers (e.g. device model, operating system version, unique device ID)
IP address
Date/time stamps (when you open/close the app, when affirmations fire, etc.)
Usage patterns, analytics, crash reports, performance data
Cookies or similar tracking technologies
Mobile analytics and diagnostics

2.3 Third-Party / External Data Sources

We may collect or receive information from third-party services (e.g. analytics providers, crash reporting services, advertising networks, or marketing tools). If so, we’ll describe these data flows in a “Third-Party Services” section below.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for purposes including, but not limited to:

Operating, maintaining, and improving the App and website
Personalizing user experience (e.g. sending affirmations, customizing messages)
Analytics: understanding how users interact with the Service
Sending you updates, promotional materials, or transactional messages (if you consent)
Customer support and responding to your inquiries
Detecting, preventing, and responding to security issues, fraud, or abuse
Complying with legal obligations

4. Sharing and Disclosure of Information

We may share your information in the following ways:

With service providers / contractors - for example, analytics providers, hosting services, email delivery, crash reporting tools. These parties act as processors, on our behalf, and are contractually obligated to protect your data.
With your consent - if you choose to share or post content, or permit sharing with social networks or other services.
For legal reasons / to protect rights - we may disclose information to comply with law, respond to lawful requests, defend against legal claims, or protect rights, property, or safety of users or others.
Business transfers - in the event of merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, user data may be transferred as part of that transaction (with notice where required).

We do not sell your personal information to third parties, unless explicitly disclosed and permitted under applicable law.

5. Cookies, Tracking & Similar Technologies

We (and third parties we engage) may use cookies, web beacons, local storage, SDKs, or other tracking technologies to collect information about your browsing or usage patterns. This helps with analytics, performance monitoring, and personalization.

You may choose to disable or block cookies via your browser or device settings, but that may impact functionality of the Service.

6. Data Retention

We will retain your data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes in this policy, support user accounts, for our legitimate business interests (including improving and maintaining the App), comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements.

After the retention period, we will either delete or anonymize your data.

Rise & Affirm does not create or maintain user accounts. Users manage their subscriptions directly through Google Play or the Apple App Store. If a user cancels a subscription, no account data remains stored in our systems

Users may optionally upload a profile picture, which is stored securely in our database. This image is used only within the app and is not shared with third parties.

7. Your Rights and Choices

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights regarding your personal data, such as:

Right to access or receive a copy of your data
Right to correct / update your information
Right to delete or request erasure
Right to restrict or object to processing
Right to withdraw consent (if processing is based on consent)
Right to data portability (in some regions)
Right to opt out of marketing or promotional messages

If you are a California resident, you may also have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) / California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA).

To exercise these rights, please contact us at info@riseandaffirm.com (or via the contact methods below). We will respond as required by applicable law.

8. Children’s Privacy

Our Service is not directed to children under 13 (or other applicable age). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we become aware that we have collected data from a child without parental consent, we will take steps to delete that data.

9. Security

We take reasonable administrative, technical, and physical measures to protect your data against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or storage method is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

10. International Transfers

If you are outside the United States, your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in the U.S. or other jurisdictions. By using our Service, you consent to such transfers, where legal safeguards (such as standard contractual clauses) may apply.

11. Third-Party Services / Integrations

We may use third-party services (analytics, crash reporting, email, advertising, etc.) in connection with the App. These services may collect or process data as described in their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of those third parties.

Examples may include (but are not limited to) Firebase Crashlytics, email delivery services, etc.

12. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may modify this Privacy Policy from time to time (for example, as we add features, change technologies, or comply with new legal requirements). If we make material changes, we will notify users via the App or email, and update the “Last Updated” date. Your continued use of the Service after changes means you accept the revised policy.
