This Privacy Policy describes how Shyne ("we", "our", or "us") handles information in connection with your use of the Shyne iOS application (the "App"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about our practices.
1. Information We Collect
1.1 Information Stored Locally On Your Device
The following information is entered by you during onboarding and used solely to generate and personalise your in-app routine. This data is stored exclusively on your device using Apple's SwiftData framework and is never transmitted to our servers or any third party:
- Age range
- Gender
- Health and wellness goals and priorities
- Skin type and concerns
- Hair concerns
- Sleep habits and concerns
- Activity level and experience level
- Habit completion history and streaks
- Routine preferences
We do not have access to any of this information. It exists solely on your device and is deleted if you uninstall the App.
1.2 Purchase and Subscription Data
We use RevenueCat to manage in-app subscriptions. When you make a purchase or restore a subscription, RevenueCat processes the transaction on our behalf. RevenueCat assigns an anonymous, randomly generated identifier to your installation — this identifier is not linked to your name, email address, Apple ID, or any other personal information.
RevenueCat receives:
- An anonymous device/install identifier (randomly generated UUID)
- Subscription status and transaction history (via Apple)
- App version and platform information
RevenueCat's privacy policy is available at https://www.revenuecat.com/privacy.
All payment processing is handled by Apple. We do not collect or store your credit card number, billing address, or any financial information.
2. Information We Do Not Collect
We do not collect:
- Your name, email address, or Apple ID
- Precise or approximate location data
- Contacts, photos, or camera access
- Health data from Apple Health / HealthKit
- Advertising identifiers (IDFA)
- Crash reports or analytics (no third-party analytics SDK is integrated)
- Any information from children under 13
3. How We Use Information
The only data processing that occurs is:
- On-device personalisation: Your profile preferences are used locally to generate your habit routine. This processing never leaves your device.
- Subscription management: Anonymous purchase data is used solely to verify your subscription status and provide access to premium features.
4. Data Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We do not share your data with advertisers, data brokers, or analytics providers.
The only third-party service we use is RevenueCat for subscription management, as described in Section 1.2. No other third-party SDKs are integrated in the App.
We may disclose information if required by law or to protect our legal rights, but given that we hold no personal data, this is not applicable in practice.
5. Data Retention and Deletion
All on-device data is retained until you delete the App, at which point it is permanently removed from your device. We have no ability to retrieve or restore this data.
Anonymous purchase identifiers held by RevenueCat are subject to RevenueCat's own retention policy.
To delete all your data, simply uninstall Shyne from your iPhone.
6. Children's Privacy
Shyne is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has used the App, please contact us at the address below and we will take appropriate steps. Any age information entered into the App is stored locally on the user's device and is not transmitted to us.
7. Security
Your personal data never leaves your device, which means it is protected by your device's own security measures including passcode, Face ID, and Touch ID. We strongly encourage you to keep your device software up to date and to use a device passcode.
8. International Users
The App is operated from the United States. If you are accessing the App from outside the United States, please be aware that any purchase data processed by RevenueCat may be transferred to and processed in the United States in accordance with RevenueCat's privacy policy.
9. Your Rights
Because we do not collect or hold personal information about you on our servers, most data rights requests (access, correction, deletion, portability) are fulfilled simply by managing your data on your own device or uninstalling the App.
If you have questions about the anonymous purchase data held by RevenueCat, you may contact RevenueCat directly per their privacy policy.
Residents of California (CCPA) and the European Economic Area (GDPR) have specific rights regarding personal data. Given our minimal data collection practices, we believe we are fully compliant. If you have specific concerns, please contact us.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The updated policy will be posted at this URL with a revised effective date. Continued use of the App after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
