4. Use of AI Tools

We use artificial intelligence tools to improve App features, personalise your experience, and analyse usage patterns. Any data processed by AI is anonymised prior to use. We do not feed personally identifiable information into AI systems without your explicit consent.

5. Anonymised Data and Marketing

We may use anonymised, aggregated data — including aggregated statistics and unattributed screenshots — for marketing, research, and product improvement purposes. Such materials will not be linked to any individual user.

Any use of personally identifiable information — including your name, attributed quotes, or identifiable images — for marketing purposes requires your prior explicit written consent, which you may withdraw at any time by contacting us at the address below.

6. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal data. We share data only in the following limited circumstances:

• Stripe: for secure payment processing
• Analytics providers: using anonymised data only
• Legal authorities: where required by applicable law

7. Data Retention

We retain your personal data for as long as your account is active. Upon account deletion or written request, we will delete your personal data within 30 days, except where retention is required by law.

8. Your Rights

If you are located in the European Union or a jurisdiction with similar data protection laws, you have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you
• Request correction of inaccurate data
• Request deletion of your data
• Withdraw consent to data processing at any time

9. Cookies

The App may use cookies and similar tracking technologies to improve performance. You may disable cookies through your device settings, though this may affect certain App functionality.

10. Beta Disclaimer

Habit Capsules is currently in beta. While we take reasonable measures to protect your data, no system is entirely secure. By using the App during this phase, you acknowledge and accept this limitation.
