Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 2025

Holdo (“we,” “our,” or “us”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding your data when you use the Holdo mobile application and related services (“Service”). By using the Service, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

1. Scope

This policy applies to information we collect through the Holdo app and our website. It does not apply to third-party sites or services linked from our Service. We are not responsible for their privacy practices.

2. Information We Collect

We collect only the information necessary to provide and improve the Service:

  • Account information: email address and user ID for authentication and account management.
  • Habit and usage data: habits you track, streaks, daily logs, and app usage data used solely to improve the product (e.g., stability, performance).

We do not collect or store sensitive categories of data beyond what you choose to track in the app. We do not sell your personal information.

3. How We Use Your Information

Your information is used only for the following purposes:

  • To provide, operate, and maintain the Service
  • To sync your habits and progress across your devices
  • To show you insights, streaks, and related features
  • To improve the Service (e.g., fixing bugs, improving performance)
  • To respond to your requests (e.g., data deletion)

We do not sell your personal data to third parties. We do not use your data for advertising targeting or for purposes unrelated to the Service without your consent.

4. Data Storage and Security

We use Firebase (Google) for authentication and data storage. Your data is stored in Firebase and is protected by industry-standard security measures. We do not have access to view or browse your personal habit data on a dashboard; it is used only by the app to serve you. While we take reasonable steps to protect your data, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

5. Data Retention

We retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service and comply with legal obligations. If you request deletion of your account and data, we will process the request in accordance with our procedures; once deleted, data cannot be recovered.

6. Third-Party Services

We use Firebase (Google) for authentication and data storage. Firebase’s use of your data is governed by Google’s privacy policy. We do not share your personal information with other third parties for their marketing purposes.

7. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

  • Access: Request access to the personal data we hold about you.
  • Deletion: Request deletion of your account and related data at any time via our Data Deletion page. Requests are reviewed and processed manually.
  • Correction: Update your account and habit data within the app.
  • Object or restrict processing: In certain jurisdictions, you may have the right to object to or restrict certain processing. Contact us to exercise these rights.

To exercise your rights, contact us at the email below. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe as required by applicable law.

8. Children’s Privacy

The Service is not directed to children under 13 (or the applicable age in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe we have collected information from a child, please contact us and we will take steps to delete it.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will indicate the “Last updated” date at the top. Material changes may be communicated via the app or by email where appropriate. Your continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.

10. Contact

For questions about this Privacy Policy or your personal data, contact us at [email protected]. You may also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection authority in your jurisdiction.

This policy is provided for informational purposes. You may wish to have a legal professional review it for your jurisdiction.
