1. What We Collect (Spoiler: Not Much)
We believe in keeping secrets, not stealing data. We only collect what’s strictly necessary to run the app:
Device ID: to manage your usage and free/paid plan access.
App Usage Data: to track message usage and improve the app.
Payment Data: if you subscribe, Apple/Google processes the payment and may share anonymized info like transaction ID.
✅ No account required.
✅ No name, email, phone number, or contacts.
✅ No location tracking.
2. How We Use Your Data
We use the minimal data we collect to:
Operate and improve the App.
Manage your plan (free/paid).
Prevent abuse or spam.
We don’t use your data for ads, tracking, or third-party sharing.
3. Messages Are Temporary, But...
Messages are encrypted and self-destruct after viewing. But we can't stop someone from taking a screenshot or recording. Be smart about what you share.
We do not permanently store your messages after they are viewed or expired.
4. Third-Party Services
Payments are handled by Apple (App Store) and Google (Play Store).
Analytics may be run using privacy-friendly tools (e.g., Plausible, Amplitude) with no personal identifiers.
We never sell or share your data with advertisers or shady third parties. Ever.
5. Your Rights
You can delete the app any time — we don’t keep anything personally tied to you.
If you’re in the EU or California, you have rights to data access and deletion. Since we don’t collect personal data, there’s usually nothing to delete — but contact us if you have concerns.
6. Kids’ Privacy
The app is for users aged 13+. If you’re under 13, please don’t use Shhhh. We don’t knowingly collect data from anyone under 13.
7. Security
We use standard encryption and security measures to protect your data, including HTTPS and secure back-end storage. But remember, no app is 100% secure.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy. If it’s a big change, we’ll notify you in the app. The current version will always be available at shhhh.app/privacy.
