Privacy Policy for Waymaker

1. Information We Collect

We collect different types of information depending on how you use Waymaker.

Account Information

• Name
• Email address

• Firebase user ID
• Authentication information needed to manage your account
• Subscription status and premium access status

Waymaker allows users to sign in through Firebase Authentication, including Sign in with Apple, Google login, email/password, and guest/anonymous account options.

Journal and Faith-Reflection Content

Waymaker allows users to create journal entries and faith-based reflections. Journal entries are stored in Firebase so they can be associated with your account.

Your journal content may include personal, spiritual, emotional, family, wellness, or faith-related information that you choose to enter. Please do not enter information that you do not want stored by the app.

Daily Activity and Streak Data

• Daily activity completion
• Streaks
• Progress toward daily faith habits

This information helps provide the core Waymaker experience.

Local-Only App Data

Some information is stored locally on your device and is not stored in Firebase by Waymaker, including:

• Daily gratitude prayer content
• Daily blessings
• Music favorites
• Reminder times
• Custom widget text
• Widget preferences
• Certain app preferences and personalization settings

Because this information is stored locally, it may be deleted if you delete the app, clear app data, change devices, or reset your device.

We may receive and store subscription-related information, including:

We may store or process:

• Whether you have premium access
• Minutes listened
• Access requests for premium songs
• Technical information needed to stream music securely

We do not currently track detailed listening history or personalize songs based on your activity.

This may include:

• Device type
• Operating system version
• App version
• Crash logs
• Performance data
• General feature usage
• Diagnostic information

We may use Google Analytics in the future. If we add additional analytics tools, we will update this Privacy Policy as needed.

2. Sensitive Spiritual and Personal Content

Waymaker is a faith-based app. Some features allow you to write or save personal reflections, prayers, journal entries, gratitude notes, blessings, or other spiritual content. This content may reveal sensitive information about your religious or spiritual beliefs, personal life, family, emotions, challenges, goals, wellness, and faith journey.

We use this information only to provide the app features you choose to use. We do not sell your journal entries, spiritual reflections, gratitude prayers, blessings, or faith-based content.

You are responsible for the information you choose to enter into the app. Please avoid submitting sensitive information that you do not want stored or processed.

3. How We Use Information

We use information to provide and operate Waymaker, create and manage user accounts, save journal entries, track daily activity and progress, provide premium features, verify subscriptions, stream premium music securely, support widgets and reminders, improve functionality, analyze usage and performance, detect and fix technical issues, respond to support requests, protect against fraud and unauthorized access, and comply with legal obligations. We do not use private journal entries or spiritual reflections for third-party advertising.

4. How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share limited information with service providers helping us operate Waymaker, including Firebase, RevenueCat, Apple, Cloudflare R2, and Google Analytics (if added). We may also disclose information to comply with law, respond to lawful requests, protect rights/users/public, prevent fraud/security issues, and enforce Terms of Use.

5. Third-Party Services

Waymaker currently uses or may use Firebase, RevenueCat, Apple App Store / StoreKit, Cloudflare R2, and Google Analytics (future use). If we add new services like ElevenLabs, Meta Pixel, TikTok Pixel, Google advertising tools, or other providers, we will update this Privacy Policy as appropriate.

6. Subscriptions and Premium Features

Premium access is managed through Apple In-App Purchase and RevenueCat. We may store subscription status in Firebase to unlock premium features, including premium music and other paid content. Deleting your account does not cancel Apple subscriptions; cancellation must be handled via Apple ID settings.

7. Local Notifications, Reminders, and Widgets

Reminder times, custom widget text, widget preferences, and certain personalization settings are stored locally on your device. We do not currently send push notifications.

8. Data Retention

We keep personal information only as long as reasonably necessary to provide Waymaker and meet legal, security, and operational obligations. Account deletion through the Settings page is designed to delete associated account data immediately through the app process. Some technical records may remain briefly in backups/logs/provider systems unless earlier deletion is legally required.

9. Account Deletion and Data Requests

You can delete your account from the app Settings page. We intend to delete account information, Firebase user data, journal entries, streak/activity data, and connected subscription status records where technically and legally possible. Local device data may be removed by deleting the app or clearing app data. Contact: support@waymaker-app.com.

10. Children and Teens

Waymaker is intended for users at least 13 years old. Users under 18 should use Waymaker with parent or legal guardian permission. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13; if discovered, we will take steps to delete it. Contact: support@waymaker-app.com.

11. California Privacy Rights

California residents may have rights to know, access, delete, correct, limit certain uses of sensitive data where applicable, opt out of sale/sharing where applicable, and non-discrimination. We do not sell personal information and do not use private spiritual/journal content for third-party advertising. Requests: support@waymaker-app.com.

12. International Users

Waymaker is operated from the United States. If you use Waymaker from outside the U.S., information may be processed and stored in the U.S. or other places where providers operate. Depending on your location, you may have additional privacy rights. To exercise rights, contact support@waymaker-app.com.

13. Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal information. Waymaker uses Firebase and Apple-supported systems for authentication, storage, and platform security, with Firestore access rules designed to restrict data by user ID. No method is completely secure; keep your credentials secure.

14. No Sale of Personal Information

We do not sell your personal information, including journal entries, spiritual reflections, gratitude prayers, blessings, music activity, or account information. If this changes, we will update this Privacy Policy and provide legally required notices or choices.

15. Advertising and Marketing

Waymaker does not currently use advertising SDKs, personalized in-app ads, Meta Pixel, TikTok Pixel, or ad retargeting tools, and does not currently send marketing emails or newsletters. If we add marketing/advertising tools in the future, we will update this policy and provide required disclosures or choices.

16. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When changes are made, we will update the “Last Updated” date. If changes are material, we may provide additional notice through the app, website, or other means. Continued use after changes are posted means acceptance of the updated policy.
