01Who I am
ONA: Goal Tracker, Her Glow Up (“ONA” or “the app”) is built and run by Darja Orlova. It’s a subscription app, provided as is.
This policy explains what the app collects, why, who helps me run it and how you can delete your data. If you use the app, you agree to this policy. Terms defined in the Terms of Use mean the same here.
02What you put in the app
ONA works with what you give it:
- the name you’d like to be called, your age range and what brought you to the app
- how you score the eight areas of your life wheel
- your chapters: the area you focus on, your goal, how long the chapter runs, your scores at the start and the end, and your answers when a chapter closes
- your rituals and side quests
- each day’s one thing, the rituals you tick, your mood, your energy and your journal
- your XP and streaks
- whether your morning and evening reminders are on
- the photos you add (see Photos)
What you enter while setting up the app stays on your phone. Once you start a free trial or subscribe, it’s saved to Cloud Firestore, part of Google Firebase, and from then on everything is stored there under your anonymous account ID so the app can show it back to you.
I use this data only to run the app for you. I don’t sell it, share it with advertisers or use it to train AI, and the app has no AI features.
Your mood, your energy and what you write in your journal can say something about your health. You choose what to enter, and it’s only used to show it back to you.
03Photos
You can add photos from your camera or your photo library: an inspiration photo and a cover for a chapter, a photo for a side quest and a photo of your day. The app asks for access to your camera or photos only when you choose to add one, and only the photos you pick are used.
Each photo is resized on your phone and stored in Cloud Storage for Firebase under your account ID. A photo file can carry details your camera saved in it, such as when and where it was taken.
04Signing in
There’s no email, password or social sign-in. When you first open the app, Firebase Authentication signs you in anonymously and creates a random account ID. That ID connects your data to you and tells me nothing about who you are. You can find it in SettingsAccountAccount ID.
Because there’s no email or password, what a reinstall does depends on your phone. On an iPhone the sign-in is usually kept, and a reinstall often finds your data again. On Android it’s removed with the app. It’s safest to assume a reinstall starts fresh.
05Subscriptions
After setup, ONA needs a free trial or a subscription. Apple (App Store) or Google (Google Play) takes the payment, and I never see your card details.
RevenueCat, the service that manages subscriptions for the app, receives your anonymous account ID and your purchase history from the store: which plan you have, when it started and renews, and whether it’s active. That’s how the app knows you’re subscribed.
06Analytics and crash reports
To see how the app is used and where it breaks, it uses Google Analytics for Firebase and Firebase Crashlytics. Neither is linked to your account ID. Firebase tells installations apart with a random ID of its own, and nothing connects that ID to what you’ve written.
- Analytics records the screen you’re on, a short name for each button you tap and some of your choices: the areas you pick, how long a chapter runs, the plan you choose and whether you tick something done. Firebase adds standard details such as when a session starts, how long the app is in use, your device model, system version, app version, language and approximate region. It doesn’t record what you write, your mood or energy, your life wheel scores, your reminder times, your photos or prices.
- Crash reports arrive when the app crashes or runs into an error it didn’t expect. They include technical details such as your device model, system version and app version, and what the app was doing. A crash inside the app’s framework can include text that was on screen at that moment. Reports don’t include your journal, your photos or the names of your files.
The app doesn’t collect your device’s advertising identifier, and none of this is used for ads or shared to track you.
07Reminders and sharing
If you turn them on, the app reminds you twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening, at times you choose. The reminders are scheduled on your phone and nothing is sent from a server, and the times you pick stay on your phone. Whether each reminder is on is saved with your data so Settings can show it. You can turn them off in Settings or in your phone’s notification settings.
When you share a recap or a page from a closed chapter, the image is made on your phone and handed to your phone’s share sheet. Where it goes from there is up to you, and I don’t get a copy.
08Emails to support
If you write to support@becoming-her.app, I receive your email address and whatever you send. When you write from SettingsContact support, the draft also includes your app version, your phone’s system version and your Account ID, so I can help without asking. You can remove any of it before you send. I use these emails only to answer you and to fix problems.
09Services I use
These services run parts of the app for me. They process data on my behalf, only for that purpose, under their own privacy policies:
- Google Firebase: Authentication, Cloud Firestore, Cloud Storage and Remote Config
- Google Analytics for Firebase
- Firebase Crashlytics
- RevenueCat
- Google Play Services, on Android
- Apple, for the App Store and payments on iPhone
Remote Config sends the app a few settings, like the oldest version that may still run and the addresses of these pages. Firebase uses an installation ID for this, separate from your account ID.
Like most online services, these providers see technical information when the app talks to them, such as your IP address, device model, system version, app version and the time of the request. They use it to deliver and protect their services.
10What the app doesn’t collect
The app doesn’t ask for your email address, phone number, Apple ID, Google account or a password. It doesn’t read your contacts, your location or data from Apple Health or Google Fit, it doesn’t collect your device’s advertising identifier, and it doesn’t track what you do in other apps or on websites. There are no ads in the app.
The app doesn’t use cookies. This website doesn’t either, and it loads nothing from other websites.
11Keeping and deleting your data
Your data is kept for as long as your account exists. You can delete all of it at any time from SettingsAccountErase everything. It asks first, then deletes your chapters, days, journal, photos and your anonymous account straight away. This can’t be undone.
Deleting the app doesn’t delete what’s stored in Firebase. If you can’t open the app, Delete your data explains how to ask me to do it.
A few things stay after you erase your data: purchase records held by Apple, Google and RevenueCat, which billing and tax rules require; the emails you’ve sent to support; and analytics events and crash reports that were already sent, which aren’t linked to your account and expire under Google’s retention settings.
Erasing your data doesn’t cancel your subscription. You manage that in your App Store or Google Play account.
12Your rights
Depending on where you live, you can ask to see, correct, delete or get a copy of your personal data, and object to or restrict how it’s used. You can see and change what you’ve entered in the app, and delete all of it in Settings. For anything else, email support@becoming-her.app with your Account ID and I’ll reply within a month. You can also complain to your local data protection authority.
13Security
Your data travels over encrypted connections and is stored with Google Firebase, which encrypts it at rest. Firebase security rules let only your account read and change your documents. Photos are stored under your account ID and opened through private, unguessable links kept with your data. No way of sending or storing data is completely secure, so I can’t promise absolute security.
14Age
ONA is for people aged 16 and over. I don’t knowingly collect data from anyone younger. If you think someone under 16 is using the app, email me with their Account ID and I’ll delete their data.
15Changes and other sites
I may update this policy. The current version is always on this page, with the date it took effect at the top.
The app and this website link to other sites, such as the App Store and Google Play. I don’t run them and I’m not responsible for their content or privacy practices.
