Privacy Policy

1. Information we collect

Anonymous accounts

When you first open Odyssey, we create an anonymous account for you automatically so the app works immediately without a signup screen. This is a real account on our servers, identified by a random ID rather than by your name or email. From that point, your goals, messages, check-ins, and coaching data are stored on our servers under that account, exactly as described below. You can attach an email or an Apple/Google identity to it later, at which point the same account becomes yours to sign back into.

Account information

• Name and email address, if you choose to register or sign in via Apple or Google.
• Profile photo URL, if signing in with Google.
• A profile photo, if you choose one from your device. The image you select is uploaded to our storage and is not used for anything other than displaying your profile. We do not access your photo library otherwise.
• Authentication credentials. Passwords are hashed and never stored in plain text.

Coaching data

• Goals, descriptions, and target values you set.
• Motivations, future vision, and personal reflections you share.
• Life satisfaction scores across areas like health, career, relationships, finances, and mindset.
• Milestones, tasks, and progress tracking.
• Belief reframes: old and new beliefs you identify.

Chat messages

• Messages you send to your AI coach and the coach's responses.
• AI-generated coaching notes about patterns, breakthroughs, and strategies that work for you.

Check-ins and wellbeing data

The following data may include information about your mental and emotional wellbeing. We treat it with additional care and use it only as described in this policy.

• Daily mood and energy ratings, on a 1 to 5 scale.
• Free-text reflections on how you are feeling.
• Daily plans and completion status.
• Streak and activity data.

Device and usage information

• Device type, operating system, and app version.
• App usage events, for example screens visited and features used.
• Session duration and engagement patterns.
• On iPhone, your device's vendor identifier (IDFV): an identifier Apple scopes to apps published by Phantom Labs, which cannot be used to identify you inside another company's app. We do not collect or use Apple's advertising identifier (IDFA).
• On Android, the Google advertising ID (GAID) and other Android device identifiers, read by AppsFlyer for install attribution and ad measurement. Section 4 describes how those identifiers are used and how to reset, delete, or opt out of them.
• Your IP address, used to approximate the country or region an install came from.
• We do not collect precise or GPS location data, or your contacts.

Attribution and advertising measurement

If you install Odyssey after seeing an ad or following a link, we use AppsFlyer to understand which ad or link led to that install.

On iPhone, this measurement uses your device's vendor identifier (IDFV), your IP address, and app events such as opening the app for the first time, viewing the paywall, or starting a subscription. We do not collect Apple's advertising identifier (IDFA).

On Android, AppsFlyer reads the Google advertising ID (GAID) and Android device identifiers for the same install attribution and ad measurement, along with your IP address and the same kinds of app events.

Those app events, including the device identifiers they are tied to, are forwarded to Meta so that Meta can measure how its ads perform. That sharing is for measurement only. What is shared is the fact that an event occurred and the device it occurred on. It is never your chat messages, goals, check-ins, or reflections, and we do not sell it. Section 4 describes the advertising identifiers we collect on each platform, and the ones we do not.

2. How we use your information

• Personalized coaching: your goals, reflections, and chat history are used to provide tailored AI coaching responses and track your progress.
• Coach memory: the AI maintains notes about your patterns and preferences to deliver more relevant guidance over time.
• Service operation: account management, authentication, subscription processing, and rate limiting.
• Product improvement: aggregated, anonymized usage analytics to understand how people use the app and improve the experience.
• Attribution and ad measurement: install and app-event data is used to understand which ads or links bring people to Odyssey and how well those campaigns perform.
• Notifications: scheduled locally on your device for check-in reminders and streak alerts. No notification data is sent to external servers.

3. Third-party services

We use the following services to operate Odyssey. Each processes your data under their own privacy policies.
