Privacy Policy

Bestie

Last updated

Provider: Wrenford Labs (“we”, “us”). This policy explains how Bestie handles information when you use the app. Support: parasharshubhankar22@gmail.com.

The short version: Bestie stores your logs on your device — they are not sent to us. Your health-related data is never sold, never used for advertising, and never shared with data brokers. There is no advertising in Bestie. Your data leaves your device only when you choose to export or share it — for example, the doctor-ready PDF you generate yourself.

1. What Bestie logs

To run the walking and cycle features, the app records the following on your device:

  • Step counts — your daily steps, from your phone’s motion sensors or steps you enter yourself in walk & watch mode;
  • Period and cycle dates — the cycle information you log or back-fill on the calendar;
  • Symptom and mood check-ins — the quick body and mood check-ins you record, including any notes you add;
  • Walking-plan progress — your goals, streaks, plans, strength sessions, and app preferences (including language).

Bestie does not require access to your location, contacts, or photos for these features. Where the app reads step counts from Apple Health or Health Connect, that access is granted and controlled by you in your device settings, and the data is used only to show your steps and goals in Bestie.

2. Where your data lives

Your logs are stored on your device. They are not uploaded to Wrenford Labs servers, which means we cannot see, read, or sell them. If you enable device backups (iCloud or Google backup), your device maker may include app data in your private backup — that is controlled by Apple / Google and your device settings, not by us.

3. Health data — our commitments

  • Health-related data is never sold.
  • It is never used for advertising, and Bestie contains no advertising.
  • It is never shared with data brokers or advertisers.
  • A doctor-ready PDF, or any other export or share, is created only when you export it, and goes only where you send it.

4. What we do receive

  • Support messages — if you email us, we receive your email address and whatever you include. Please don’t send us screenshots of your logs unless you want us to see them.
  • Nothing else by default — because your logs live on your device, ordinary use of Bestie sends us no personal information.

5. Your choices and rights

Because your data is on your device, you are in direct control: view, edit, or back-fill any day in the app; delete any log or all of your data at any time (see Delete your data); and turn device permissions such as motion or Health access on or off in your device settings. Uninstalling the app removes its locally stored data. If you contact us about data we hold (for example a support email), you may ask us to access or delete it, and we will respond within 30 days. Depending on where you live, additional rights may apply under laws like the GDPR or CCPA.

6. Children

Bestie is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

7. Changes & contact

If Bestie ever adds a feature that changes how data is handled — for example optional cloud sync — we will update this policy first and describe the change in the app. The current version and effective date will always be posted here.
