SOVA is built to be quiet and private. Everything you write — your entries, intentions, reflections, mood notes — stays on your device. We don't transmit your personal content to a server, we don't sell it, and we don't share it. Your name and notes are yours.
When you use SOVA, the following information is saved to your device only:
• Your first name (if you choose to enter it)
• Journal entries and Pages content
• Daily intentions, energy logs, and reflections
• Self-care check-ins and rotation history
• Mood and feeling selections
• Settings and preferences (theme, reminders, etc.)
This data lives on your phone in secure on-device storage. It does not leave your device.
• We don't transmit your personal content to any server
• We don't sell, rent, or trade your information to third parties
• We don't track your location
• We don't read your entries
• We don't profile you for advertising
If you subscribe to SOVA+, your subscription is processed through Apple App Store or Google Play. Apple's and Google's privacy policies apply to subscription transactions. We receive a confirmation that you've subscribed, but we don't see your payment details.
We may use anonymous analytics (no personal content) to understand how the app is used and where it can be improved.
Since everything is stored on your device:
• You can review your data anytime within the app
• You can delete individual entries from Pages
• Deleting the app removes all your data
There is no cloud backup. If you want to keep a copy of important entries, use the share or print option to export them before uninstalling.
SOVA is intended for users aged 13 and older. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13.
We may update this policy as the app evolves. The date above shows when this version was published. Continued use of SOVA means you accept the current policy.
