Short version: your contacts, notes, and recordings belong to you. We don't sell them, we don't share them, and you can delete everything at any time.
Last updated: May 8, 2026
We only collect what's needed to make the app work for you:
We do not collect your phone's contact list unless you explicitly import a contact. We do not read your messages or access your call log without permission.
We never sell your personal information, and we never use your diary content to train AI models.
When you ask Sarthi to summarize an interaction or suggest a next step, the relevant entries are sent to our AI provider to generate a response. This happens only when you invoke an AI feature — not in the background.
Our AI provider processes the request on our behalf under a data-processing agreement. They do not retain your content beyond what's required to serve the request, and they do not use it to train their models.
We share data only with service providers who help us run the app, and only with what they need:
We don't sell or rent your data. We don't share it with advertisers. If we're ever legally required to disclose information (e.g., a valid court order), we'll narrow the scope as much as the law allows.
Your data is stored on managed cloud infrastructure in secure data centers. In transit, it's protected by TLS; at rest, it's encrypted on disk. Access to production systems is restricted to the people who need it to operate the service.
We keep your diary content for as long as your account is active. There are two ways to leave:
Deactivate your account (Settings → Account → Deactivate): your data is preserved. Signing in again restores everything. No data is deleted.
Permanently delete your account (Settings → Account → Delete Account → Permanent): your diary content (contacts, notes, entries, transactions, voice recordings, photos, AI chat history, AI briefs) is removed from our active systems immediately. We retain a minimal record (your email and sign-in identifier) flagged as deleted, so that if you sign in again you are recognized as a new account and to prevent abuse. Subscription records are retained for Apple billing compliance.
Backups containing your data roll off on their normal retention schedule (up to 90 days).
Anonymous crash and usage logs that can't be tied back to you may be kept longer for analytics.
Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights (e.g., GDPR, India's DPDP Act, CCPA) to object, restrict, or port your data. Email us and we'll honor them.
DiaryDoot is not directed to children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect data from them. If you believe a child has created an account, email us and we'll delete it.
If we make meaningful changes, we'll update the "Last updated" date at the top and, when the change is material, notify you in the app or by email. Continuing to use DiaryDoot after an update means you accept the revised policy.
Questions, requests, or concerns? Email support@diarydoot.com. We read every message and respond within 24 hours.
