Rid

Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 3, 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how Rid ("we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and shares information about you when you use our mobile application Rid: Habits & Goals (the "App"). The App is operated by Sean Hull, a sole proprietor based in California, USA.

By using the App, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. If you do not agree with this policy, please do not use the App.

1. Information We Collect

Information you provide directly

• Account information. When you sign up, we collect your email address, password (stored as a salted hash, never in plaintext), and optional profile photo and display name.
• Onboarding inputs. During onboarding you may provide information about habits you want to eliminate, habits you want to build, your goals, and your motivations. This content is stored in your account.
• App usage data. We store the habits you track, your daily check-ins, streak counts, milestone badges earned, commitments you set, and progress notes.
• AI Coach interactions. When you use the AI Coach feature, your messages and the AI's responses are stored to provide continuity in coaching sessions. Messages are sent to Anthropic's API to generate responses.
• Subscription information. When you subscribe, Apple processes your payment. We do not see or store your payment card details. We receive a receipt token and subscription status from Apple via RevenueCat.

Information collected automatically

• Device information. We collect device type, operating system version, app version, and time zone for technical functionality.
• Crash and performance data. If the App crashes or encounters errors, we may collect diagnostic information to fix issues.
• Authentication tokens. Supabase, our authentication provider, stores session tokens on your device to keep you signed in.

Information we do NOT collect

• We do not collect your real-world location.
• We do not collect your contacts.
• We do not access your camera or photo library except when you explicitly choose to upload a profile photo.
• We do not track you across other apps or websites.
• We do not sell your personal information to anyone.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Provide, operate, and maintain the App
• Sync your habits and progress across your devices
• Generate AI Coach responses tailored to your goals
• Send you optional motivational push notifications (which you can disable in your device settings)
• Process subscription payments through Apple
• Detect and prevent fraud, abuse, and security incidents
• Comply with legal obligations

3. How We Share Your Information

We share information only with the following service providers, who are bound by confidentiality obligations:

• Supabase — Authentication and database hosting. Your account data is stored on Supabase servers in the United States.
• Anthropic — AI Coach responses are generated using Anthropic's Claude API. Your messages to the AI Coach are sent to Anthropic for processing. Anthropic does not retain your messages for model training under their commercial API terms.
• Apple / RevenueCat — Subscription management and payment processing. Apple handles all payments; RevenueCat handles subscription state synchronization.
• Cloudflare — Domain hosting and content delivery for our website (ridhabits.app).

We may also disclose information if required by law, valid legal process, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Rid, our users, or others.

We do NOT sell your personal information to advertisers or data brokers.

4. Your Choices and Rights

• Access. You can view all your account data at any time within the App.
• Update. You can update your profile, name, photo, and habit data within the App.
• Delete your account. Tap "Delete Account" in your Profile to permanently delete your account, all associated habit data, AI Coach history, and personal information from our servers. This action is irreversible. Note that subscriptions managed by Apple are not cancelled by deleting your account; you must cancel them separately in your iOS Settings.
• Opt out of notifications. Disable push notifications in your iOS Settings → Rid → Notifications.
• Data portability. Contact us at appteamrid@gmail.com to request an export of your data.

Residents of California (CCPA/CPRA)

You have the right to know what personal information we collect, request deletion, opt out of any sale of personal information (we do not sell), and not be discriminated against for exercising your rights. Contact appteamrid@gmail.com to make a request.

Residents of the European Economic Area (GDPR)

You have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict, port, or object to the processing of your personal data. The legal basis for processing is your consent (which you can withdraw at any time by deleting your account) and the performance of a contract (providing the App). Contact appteamrid@gmail.com to exercise these rights. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

5. Data Retention

We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active. When you delete your account, your personal information is removed from our active databases within 30 days. Backups are purged within 90 days. Anonymized aggregate data (e.g., total user count) may be retained indefinitely.

6. Security

We use industry-standard security measures to protect your information, including encryption in transit (HTTPS/TLS), encrypted database storage, salted password hashing, and access controls on our backend systems. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure. You are responsible for keeping your account password confidential.

Rid is intended for users 13 years of age and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have collected information from a child under 13, contact us at appteamrid@gmail.com and we will delete it promptly.

8. International Users

Rid is operated from the United States. If you are using the App from outside the United States, your information will be transferred to and processed in the United States, where data protection laws may differ from those in your country. By using the App, you consent to this transfer.
