Privacy Policy
Last updated 10 July 2026
Haldra keeps your goal, your reasons, your photos and your history on your phone. We cannot read them. We never receive them.
This policy explains that in full, including the one part of the app that does involve someone else: paying for it.
Who we are
Haldra is made by an independent developer based in Australia. If you have a question about privacy, or want to make a complaint, email hello@haldra.app.
What stays on your phone
Everything you put into Haldra is stored only in the app's private storage on your device:
- your goal, and any photo you attach to it
- your reasons, and any photos you attach to them
- your history — whether each moment helped or you gave in, and any note you wrote
- your reminders, their times, and the messages you wrote for them
- your settings, including your theme and whether App Lock is on
None of this is transmitted anywhere. There is no account to create, no server holding a copy, and no way for us to see any of it. If you uninstall Haldra, it is gone — we have no backup to restore, because we never had one.
What we don't do
Haldra contains no analytics, no advertising, no tracking, no third-party marketing tools, no crash reporting, and no social media integrations. We do not build a profile of you and we have nothing to sell to anyone.
Permissions the app asks for
Photos. If you add a photo to your goal or a reason, the app asks your phone for access to your photo library so you can choose one. The photo you choose is stored with the app on your device. We never see it.
Face ID, Touch ID and fingerprint. If you turn on App Lock, your phone performs the check and simply tells the app "unlocked" or "not unlocked". Your biometric data never leaves your phone's secure hardware, and the app never has access to it.
Notifications. Reminders are scheduled by your phone, on your phone. Nothing is sent from a server, and no push token or device identifier is transmitted to us.
Subscriptions, and the one place data leaves your phone
Haldra is a paid subscription with a free trial. When you subscribe, the payment is handled entirely by Apple's App Store or Google Play. We never see, receive or store your card details, your name, your address, or your Apple or Google account.
To know whether your subscription is active, the app uses a service called RevenueCat, which is operated by RevenueCat, Inc. in the United States. RevenueCat receives:
- a randomly generated, anonymous identifier for your installation of the app
- basic device and app information, such as your device model, operating system version and app version
- your purchase history for this app — which subscription you bought, when it started, and whether it is currently active
RevenueCat does not receive your goal, your reasons, your photos, your history, or your notes. It is used solely to answer one question: is this person's subscription active right now.
Information sent overseas
The subscription information described above is held by RevenueCat, Inc. on servers in the United States. Apple Inc. and Google LLC, who process your payment, also operate in the United States and other countries. Apart from this, no information leaves your device or Australia.
Accessing, correcting and deleting your information
Your personal information is already in your hands. Everything you have written into Haldra can be read, edited and deleted inside the app itself. Deleting the app removes all of it from your phone permanently.
The anonymous subscription record held by RevenueCat cannot be linked back to you by us, because it contains no name, email or account. If you would like it deleted, email us and we will do our best to identify and remove it — we may need to ask you for your purchase receipt to find it.
Children
Haldra is not directed at children and we do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 16.
Security
Because your information stays on your device, its security is your phone's security. We recommend using a device passcode, and turning on App Lock inside Haldra if other people use your phone.
Your rights, and how to complain
We handle personal information in accordance with the Australian Privacy Principles under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).
If you think we have mishandled your personal information, please tell us first at hello@haldra.app. We will respond within 30 days. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may complain to the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner at oaic.gov.au.
If you are in the European Union or the United Kingdom, you have rights under the GDPR to access, correct, erase, and restrict processing of your personal information, and to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority. If you are in California, you have rights under the CCPA to know what is collected and to request its deletion. In both cases the answer is unusually simple: we hold nothing about you except an anonymous subscription record, and everything else is on your own phone.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, we will update this page and change the date at the top. If a change is significant, we will say so in the app.
