1. Introduction

Mind Start Technologies L.L.C ("we," "us," or "our") operates the Startlife mobile application (the "App").

This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use Startlife on iOS devices.

By downloading or using Startlife, you agree to this Privacy Policy.

2. Information We Collect

We collect and process limited information to operate and improve the App:

Data You Provide

  • Name, email, or optional profile details (if you create an account or contact support).
  • Feedback or messages you send to us.

Automatically Collected Data

  • Device type, operating system, app version.
  • App usage events (feature engagement, session duration, crash diagnostics).
  • Approximate region or language preferences (not precise location).

Sensitive Categories (if applicable)

If Startlife includes wellbeing or reflection features, user-input data remains private, stored locally or encrypted on our servers. We do not collect health, biometric, or financial data unless explicitly required by app functionality and user consent.

3. How We Use Your Data

We use your data to:

  • Operate and personalize the App
  • Monitor performance and fix technical issues
  • Communicate service updates or support responses
  • Conduct anonymized analytics to improve the user experience

We do not sell, rent, or share personal information with third parties for advertising or profiling.

4. Data Linked to You (App Store Disclosure)

According to Apple's App Store privacy labels, the following data may be linked to your identity if you provide it:

  • Contact information (e.g., email address)
  • User content (e.g., journal entries or preferences)

All linked data is used strictly for functionality, support, and analytics — not for tracking or third-party advertising.

5. Tracking and Third-Party SDKs

  • Startlife does not use third-party advertising SDKs or tracking technologies.
  • We do not track users across other apps or websites.
  • If analytics tools are used (e.g., Apple or Firebase Analytics), all data is anonymized and aggregated.

6. Data Storage and Security

  • Data is encrypted during transmission (HTTPS/TLS).
  • Access is restricted to authorized personnel only.
  • Servers are hosted in secure, GDPR-compliant data centers.
  • Local data on your device is protected by Apple's native security mechanisms (Keychain, Secure Enclave).

7. Data Retention and Deletion

  • We keep data only as long as necessary for the purpose it was collected.
  • You can delete your account or request data removal at any time by emailing stas@startlife.org.
  • Upon deletion, all personal data is permanently erased from our systems within 30 days.

8. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may:

  • Request a copy of your personal data
  • Ask for corrections or deletion
  • Withdraw consent at any time

We will respond to verified requests in accordance with applicable data protection laws.

9. Children's Privacy

  • Startlife is not designed for children under 13.
  • We do not knowingly collect or store personal information from minors.

10. International Data Transfers

If data is transferred or processed outside your country (e.g., within the EU or UAE), we ensure appropriate safeguards consistent with GDPR and other privacy regulations.
