MoodKite Privacy Policy

MoodKite keeps everything you write on your own phone. We cannot see it. We have no server, no account system, and no way to identify you.

Nothing. MoodKite has no user accounts, sign-in, analytics, advertising or crash reporting. We don’t collect your personal information, and we never see what you write in the app.

Everything you record in MoodKite stays on your phone. This includes your moods and emotions, what you record about what was happening, your notes, and the time of each entry. Your app settings, such as language, appearance and reminder frequency, are stored there too. Nothing is sent anywhere — not to us and not to anyone else. If you give the app a nickname to call you by, that stays on your phone as well: it is optional, you can skip it, and it is deleted with everything else when you remove your data.

Your entries are left out of your phone’s automatic backups. Your moods and emotions, what was happening, your notes and the time of each entry are never copied to iCloud or Google Drive, and they are not transferred automatically when you set up a new phone.

There is one exception on iPhone. If iCloud Backup or backups to a computer are switched on, the backup can include MoodKite’s settings: language, appearance and reminder frequency, the nickname if you chose one, how entries are locked, and the app’s own PIN, stored as a hash rather than as the digits themselves. None of your entries are part of it. On Android, nothing from MoodKite is backed up.

This is intentional. MoodKite is designed so that your entries stay on your phone and are not kept somewhere else as a backup.

The trade-off is that if you change phones or uninstall MoodKite, your entries are gone. There is no backup to restore them from, so they cannot be recovered later. We want to be clear about this because keeping your data only on your phone also means that there is no hidden copy waiting somewhere else.

Any moment can be locked. Locking hides the details of that entry — the words you picked, what you noted alongside, and any note — until you unlock it. The mood itself stays visible, and the entry still counts on your week.

How unlocking works depends on your phone. If your phone has a screen lock, MoodKite asks the phone to check it — the same fingerprint, face, or PIN that unlocks the phone. That check is performed by the phone’s own operating system: MoodKite is told only whether it succeeded, and never receives, sees, or stores your fingerprint, your face data, or your phone’s PIN.

If your phone has no screen lock, MoodKite offers a PIN of its own instead, chosen in the app and stored only on your phone. If you choose not to set one, the app tells you plainly, at the moment you lock an entry, that it will have no way to ask for a code before showing that entry again.

If reminders are switched on, the phone schedules them locally. No reminder passes through any server, and no notification content leaves the device. Reminders can be turned off in Settings at any time.

MoodKite opens no network connections of its own. Updates come from the store you installed MoodKite from: Google Play on Android, the App Store on iPhone. On Android, the Google Play app also tells MoodKite when a new version is available and handles the download. That traffic runs between your phone and Google or Apple, under their own privacy policies. Nothing you recorded is any part of it.

Your data stays yours. Nobody else has access to it — not advertisers, analytics companies, researchers, schools, parents, or anyone else. MoodKite has no adult dashboard.

Individual entries can be deleted inside the app. Uninstalling MoodKite removes everything the app has stored on your phone, including all entries. Because we never receive your data, there is nothing for us to delete and no copy of it on our side.

MoodKite is intended for people aged 13 and over. The app is designed so that it never collects personal information from anyone, regardless of age. It does not profile users, show advertising, or use anything recorded in it to make judgements about the person who wrote it. MoodKite describes what you noticed. It does not diagnose, score, rank, or interpret, and it is not a medical device, a therapy service, or a substitute for talking to a professional.

If this policy changes, the new version will be posted at this address with an updated date. Material changes will also be noted in the app’s release notes on the store listing.

Everything above applies to the MoodKite app. This section is about moodkite.ee, which is separate from the app. The app does not connect to any server, while a website needs a hosting service to be available online.

If you send us a message from the contact page, we store the name, email address and message you typed, together with the time you ticked the consent box and a one-way hash of your IP address and browser user-agent string. The hashes let us show that consent was given and let us block automated abuse; they cannot be turned back into your IP address. The legal basis is your consent (GDPR Article 6(1)(a)), which you can withdraw at any time by writing to contact@delvaris.com.

We keep a message until your enquiry has been dealt with, and in any case no longer than 12 months, after which it is deleted.

We count how many times each page is opened, and nothing else. No cookie is set, nothing is stored on your device, and no identifier for you or for your browser is kept — so the counts cannot be joined back to a person or to a single visit.

This site sets no cookies at all. That is why it does not ask you about them.

The companies below host the site, hold its database and deliver the email a contact form generates. They act as processors on our instructions; the table shows the status of each one’s data processing agreement. None of them receives anything from the app.

Under the GDPR you can ask us for a copy of the personal data we hold about you, ask us to correct or delete it, object to our processing of it, ask us to restrict that processing, and ask to receive it in a portable form. In practice the only personal data we ever hold is a message you chose to send us. Write to contact@delvaris.com and we will answer within one month. You can also complain to the Estonian Data Protection Inspectorate (Andmekaitse Inspektsioon, aki.ee).
