Privacy Policy

Last updated: 8 July 2026

Mitra ("the app") is a private, iPhone-first life command center published by Prajwal Naik ("we", "us", "the developer"), based in Kumta, Karnataka, India. This policy explains what happens to your information when you use Mitra. The short version: we never receive it.

1. Information we do not collect

Mitra has no user accounts, no backend infrastructure operated by the developer, and integrates no third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking libraries. As a result, the developer does not collect, receive, store, or have access to your personal data, including your tasks, habits, journal entries, focus sessions, reflections, or any health information.

2. Where your data lives

Your content (tasks, habits, focus sessions, reflections, cycle entries, and settings) is stored locally on your device using Apple's on-device storage (SwiftData). If you are signed in to iCloud, this content is synced through your private CloudKit database under your Apple Account, so it is available across your devices. This data is accessible only to you. Apple's iCloud terms and privacy policy govern that storage; the developer cannot access it.

3. Apple Health

With your explicit permission, Mitra reads selected Apple Health data — such as sleep, heart-rate variability, resting heart rate, activity/exercise, workouts, and (optionally) cycle information — to provide private, on-device planning context. This data is processed entirely on your device and is never sent to the developer or any third party. Mitra is read-only by default; it writes only cycle flow and mood entries back to Apple Health, and only if you explicitly enable "Health writes" in Settings. You can revoke Health access at any time in the iOS Settings app or the Health app.

4. Calendar and Reminders

If you grant access, Mitra reads your calendar events and reminders (via Apple's EventKit) to help you place them into your daily plan. This information stays on your device and is not transmitted to the developer.

5. Face ID / biometrics

You can optionally lock the journal, or the entire app, behind Face ID or your device passcode. Authentication is handled entirely by Apple's local biometric system (LocalAuthentication). Mitra never receives, stores, or transmits your biometric data.

6. Purchases and the free trial

Mitra offers a 30-day free trial followed by an optional one-time purchase, processed by Apple through the App Store using StoreKit. We do not receive your name, payment card, or billing details. To prevent trial abuse (for example, deleting and reinstalling to obtain a new trial), the app anchors your trial start date to signals provided by Apple — your Apple Account's original app-acquisition date and a device-level Keychain marker. This processing happens on-device and via Apple; the developer does not receive personally identifying information from it.

7. Required-reason APIs & privacy manifest

In line with Apple's requirements, Mitra includes a privacy manifest declaring its use of "required reason" APIs (specifically, UserDefaults, used only to store your in-app preferences on your device). Mitra declares no tracking and no data collection in its App Store privacy information.

8. Children

Mitra is not directed to children under 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your jurisdiction) and does not knowingly collect data from them. Because the developer collects no data at all, no personal information about any user — child or adult — is transmitted to us.

9. Data retention & deletion

Because your data lives only on your device and your iCloud, you are in full control of retention. Deleting an item, using "Delete all data" in Settings, or uninstalling the app removes local data; iCloud content can be managed from your device or Apple ID settings. The developer holds no copy to retain or delete.

10. International users

Since no data is transmitted to the developer, there are no international data transfers to or from us. Your data resides wherever Apple stores your iCloud data under your Apple Account. For EU/EEA and UK users, see our GDPR & Data Rights page.

11. Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted here with a new "Last updated" date. Material changes will be reflected in the app or on this website.
