AI Affirmations & CBT Wellness

Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 14, 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how Anchor – AI Affirmations, developed by Agile Catalyst Labs, collects, uses, and shares information when you use our mobile application (the "App"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your data with transparency.

1. Information We Collect

1.1 Voice Recordings Ephemeral

When you use the voice personalization feature, you may record a short audio sample. This recording is:

1.2 Mood and Affirmation Text Ephemeral

Text you enter to describe your mood or intentions is sent to OpenAI to generate personalized CBT-based affirmations. This text is processed in real time and is not stored by us. Please review OpenAI's Privacy Policy for how they handle API data.

1.3 Voice Analysis Parameters Ephemeral

If you use the voice architect feature, your audio sample is analyzed by Google Gemini to derive resonance, presence, and cadence parameters. Audio is processed transiently and not retained by us.

1.4 Push Notification Token

If you opt in to push notifications, your device's push token is registered with Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM). We use this token only to deliver affirmation reminders you have explicitly requested.

1.5 Purchase Information

Subscription purchases are processed entirely by the Apple App Store (on iOS) or Google Play (on Android). We receive only a non-personal purchase token to verify your subscription status. We do not receive or store your payment details.

1.6 On-Device Data Local only

The following data is stored only on your device and is never transmitted to our servers:

1.7 Advertising & Attribution Data Shared with Meta

To measure the effectiveness of our paid advertising campaigns and improve the ads you see, the App integrates the Meta (Facebook) SDK. When you open the App, the SDK may collect and share the following with Meta Platforms, Inc.:

iOS App Tracking Transparency (ATT): On first launch, iOS will ask whether you allow Anchor to track your activity across other companies' apps and websites. If you choose "Ask App Not to Track," your IDFA is not shared with Meta, and attribution is performed using Apple's privacy-preserving SKAdNetwork framework instead. The App functions identically regardless of your choice.

Android: Attribution is performed via Google Play's Install Referrer API and your Advertising ID. You can reset or limit this ID in your device's Google settings.

Meta's use of this data is governed by their Privacy Policy and their Business Tools Terms.

1.8 Analytics & Diagnostics

The App uses Firebase Analytics and Firebase Crashlytics (operated by Google) to understand aggregate usage patterns and diagnose crashes. This includes anonymous device-level events, crash stack traces, and performance metrics. This data is not used for advertising and is not linked to your real identity.
