Privacy Policy
Last updated May 6, 2026
WorryJar is designed for private reflection. Your worries are stored on your device unless you choose to use features that require Apple or RevenueCat services.
Information We Handle
WorryJar may handle the following information:
- Worry text, categories, dates, lock times, reminders, status, intensity, reflection notes, and outcomes.
- App settings such as language, appearance, input mode, notification preferences, and onboarding state.
- Audio input when you choose voice journaling.
- Subscription status and purchase information through RevenueCat and Apple.
How Information Is Used
We use information to provide the app experience: saving worries, showing reflections, locking worries, scheduling reminders, transcribing voice input, translating text, restoring purchases, and improving app reliability.
Local Storage
Your saved worries and app preferences are stored on your device using Apple storage technologies. WorryJar does not run its own server for your journal content.
Voice Input
If you use voice journaling, WorryJar requests microphone and speech recognition access. Audio is used to create text.
Notifications
If you enable notifications, WorryJar schedules local reminders such as lock expiration alerts. You can change notification access in iOS Settings.
Third-Party Services
WorryJar uses:
- Apple services for App Store payments, speech recognition, translation, notifications, and device permissions.
- RevenueCat for subscriptions, purchase status, restores, and related purchase analytics.
These services process information under their own terms and privacy policies.
Payments
Payments are handled by Apple. WorryJar does not receive or store your full payment card details.
Data Retention and Deletion
Worries remain on your device until you delete them or remove the app. You can revoke microphone, speech recognition, and notification permissions in iOS Settings.
Children
WorryJar is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Wellness Notice
WorryJar is a self-reflection tool. It is not medical care, therapy, diagnosis, crisis support, or emergency service. If you may harm yourself or someone else, contact local emergency services immediately.
Changes
We may update this policy as WorryJar changes. The latest version will appear on this page with a new update date.
