1. Information We Collect
We collect and process the following information when you interact with Project Evelyn:
- Email address: Used to authenticate your account, provide waitlist or feature updates, and communicate about app usage and release updates.
- User ID: A unique identifier we assign to your account.
- User content: Including search query logs, voice inputs, messages, and project metadata created in the app.
- Approximate location: When location permissions are granted, we collect approximate location data (city, state, country, and approximate coordinates rounded to roughly 100-meter accuracy) solely while the app is in use to fulfill location-relevant queries such as local weather, recommendations, or nearby information. We do not track your location continuously or in the background.
- Product interaction data: Such as taps, screen views, and session events, to understand how you use the app.
- Diagnostic data: Technical information from feedback forms, including bug descriptions and screenshots.
We do not collect sensitive categories such as continuous background location tracking, contacts, health data, or payment-card numbers.
2. Third-Party Sharing and AI Processing
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. To process your search queries and generate conversational responses, the text of your query, transcribed voice inputs, and approximate location context (when location permission is granted, e.g., city, state, country, or approximate coordinates to answer local or weather-related questions) are shared with our authorized upstream AI partners, specifically Google (Gemini APIs), OpenAI (ChatGPT APIs), and Anthropic (Claude APIs).
Only the text prompts, query transcripts, and relevant query context (such as approximate location to resolve local inquiries) are sent to these services to generate answers. No personal identity information (such as your name, email, or Apple ID) is shared with these third-party AI service providers. We confirm that all third-party AI partners we share data with are contractually bound to provide the same or equal level of protection for your query data as described in this policy.
Additionally, no advertising code or tracking libraries are present in either the iOS or watchOS client apps.
3. Data Retention, Account Deletion, and History Purging
Users can permanently delete their query history directly from the Settings menu in the companion iOS app. When requested, all history logs are purged immediately and irrevocably from our backend databases.
In accordance with App Store Review Guidelines, users can also initiate permanent account deletion directly from the Settings menu. Requesting account deletion permanently purges the user account, all historical queries and session logs, active subscription claims, and revokes all active session tokens on our backend databases and connected authorization providers.
4. Children's Privacy
Project Evelyn does not knowingly collect information from children under the age of 13. If you believe we have inadvertently collected such data, please contact us for immediate removal.
5. Changes to This Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post any changes on this page and update the "last updated" date at the top of the policy.
