How Streaks Garden handles your data.
The short version
Your habits stay on your device. Streaks Garden works local-first. There are no advertising SDKs and no remote behavioural tracking of individuals. There is no account to create for the core app, and your habit data is not sent to JPott Studios.
Network processing happens only when a feature that needs it is used, verifying a purchase with the app store, optional encrypted sync if you turn it on, or the anonymous usage counts described below.
What Streaks Garden stores on your device
The app keeps the following in private app storage on your phone:
- Habits and their schedules
- Check-ins, planned skips, and any notes you add
- Garden progress
- Reminder choices and theme
- Onboarding state and widget data
- Local activity counters used to power your own progress display
These counters stay on the device unless the anonymous usage feature below is both configured and left on.
Anonymous usage counts
When optional sync is configured for the build, Streaks Garden can send anonymous usage counts so we can see how the app is used overall and improve it. For example, how many times a habit was created or completed, plus the app version, coarse platform (iOS, Android, or web), and how many days the app has been used.
These numbers are tied to a random per-install tag (a value generated on your device) that is not linked to any account, email, phone number, or device identifier. It identifies an install so the same device is not counted twice; it does not identify you.
This never includes your habit names, notes, schedules, reminders, garden data, photos, or anything you typed. Only whole-number counts and the coarse signals above are ever sent.
It is on by default and you can turn it off at any time under Privacy & data in the app. If sync is not configured for the build, nothing is collected or sent.
Optional encrypted sync
Sync is optional and off unless you turn it on. The core app never requires it.
If you enable sync, an account email address and authentication records are processed by the sync provider so the service knows the records are yours. Your habit records are encrypted on your device before they are uploaded. You can delete the service copy from the app's sync settings. See the data deletion guide.
Purchases
Streaks Garden Premium is a one-time purchase. Apple or Google processes the payment and provides purchase information. The app uses RevenueCat to fetch available products, validate receipts, restore access, and check whether Premium is active.
JPott Studios does not receive your payment-card details. RevenueCat and the app store may process a store receipt, product identifier, purchase status, country or storefront information, and an app-user identifier. See RevenueCat's privacy policy, Apple's privacy policy, and Google's privacy policy.
Permissions
| Permission | Why |
|---|---|
| Notifications | Optional habit reminders that you schedule. You can decline this, or turn it off later in device settings, and the app still works. |
Exports and backups
You can export a backup at any time. Your device then offers destinations such as Files, email, messaging, or cloud storage. JPott Studios does not receive that file.
Streaks Garden backup files are ordinary JSON and are not encrypted by the app. They may contain readable personal content, including your notes. Store and send them carefully. Once you save a file somewhere, that destination's own terms and privacy practices apply.
Keeping and deleting data
Local data stays until you delete items, use an in-app clear-data control, replace data during a restore, or remove the app's data from your device. Operating-system backups and any copies you export are controlled by you and the platform you chose.
If you enabled sync, the app provides a control to delete the service copy. See the data and account deletion guide.
Children
Streaks Garden is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. JPott Studios does not knowingly use the app to solicit personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided account information through sync, contact us so we can investigate.
Changes and contact
This policy may be updated as features, service providers, or legal requirements change. The published date above changes whenever it is revised.
