PlainHealth Privacy Policy
PlainHealth is designed around user-approved HealthKit access, local processing, and clear controls for app-created data.
PlainHealth Privacy Policy
PlainHealth is a privacy-first wellness app that helps you understand patterns from Apple Health and your own check-ins in plain English.
PlainHealth is not a medical device, does not provide diagnosis or treatment advice, and is not an emergency service.
Data PlainHealth Uses
- Apple Health and HealthKit data you approve, including the current MVP categories used for summaries: sleep, steps, active energy, workouts, resting heart rate, and recovery signal.
- Derived daily snapshots and plain-English summaries created from approved Apple Health data.
- Journal check-ins you create, such as mood, energy, stress, tags, and optional notes.
- Local app preferences, including privacy and subscription-related UI state.
- Optional local notification preferences if you choose to enable reminders.
- Generic widget status content, such as whether a daily brief is ready or whether more data is needed.
How PlainHealth Uses Data
- Show daily and weekly wellness summaries.
- Explain missing data and confidence in simple language.
- Support future reports and exports when those features are implemented.
- Let you view privacy, permission, and local storage status.
- Manage optional local reminder preferences.
- Show generic widget status and open PlainHealth for details.
Local Processing and Storage
Health summaries are generated locally on your device. Current app code does not upload HealthKit data, journal notes, derived health summaries, or local snapshots to a backend, remote AI service, analytics service, or ad network.
HealthKit remains the source of truth for raw Apple Health samples. PlainHealth does not store raw HealthKit samples and does not store personal health information in iCloud or CloudKit.
Notifications, Widgets, and Subscriptions
Local reminder permission is optional and user-triggered. Free daily and weekly reminder text is generic and does not include health values, journal notes, or sensitive details.
Widgets use generic text by default and do not show sleep duration, heart rate, recovery values, step counts, active energy, workouts, journal notes, mood, stress, symptoms, or report details by default.
Premium subscriptions are handled by Apple StoreKit. Subscription checks are separate from health insight logic, and PlainHealth does not send HealthKit data, journal notes, or health summaries to StoreKit.
Deleting Local App Data
You can delete app-created local data from the Privacy dashboard. This removes derived daily snapshots and journal check-ins stored by PlainHealth.
Deleting app-created data does not delete Apple Health source data. To review or change Apple Health permissions, use iOS Settings or the Health app. Subscription records are managed by Apple.
Your Controls
- Choose whether to connect Apple Health.
- Review Apple Health permissions in iOS Settings.
- Use privacy and permission controls without Premium.
- Delete app-created local data.
- Avoid entering journal notes or remove them by deleting local app data.
- Enable, disable, or skip optional local reminders.
- Use generic widgets without showing sensitive health values on glanceable surfaces.
- Choose whether to export or share reports when export features exist.
Support, TestFlight Feedback, and Diagnostics
PlainHealth does not include an in-app support form, feedback SDK, analytics SDK, or third-party crash-reporting SDK in the current app code.
If you contact support outside the app or send TestFlight feedback, your message, screenshots, logs, or diagnostic details may be handled through Apple or the support channel you use. Do not include sensitive health details in support messages unless you choose to share them.
Children and Age Policy
PlainHealth is designed for everyday wellness use. The final launch audience and age rating are determined through the App Store review and product-owner approval process.
Changes to This Policy
This policy will be updated whenever PlainHealth data practices change, including new HealthKit data types, journal behavior, notifications, exports, support channels, crash reporting, analytics, remote AI, backend processing, iCloud or CloudKit sync, third-party SDKs, or subscription behavior.
