We respect your privacy. Here's everything we collect — and don't collect.
Last updated: April 13, 2026Short version: SocialSafe stores all your data locally on your device. We do not collect, sell, or share your personal information. We don't have servers with your data.
SocialSafe ("we", "our", or "the app") is an iOS application designed for introverts and people with social anxiety. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our app.
SocialSafe is developed independently and is available on the Apple App Store. By using SocialSafe, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
SocialSafe collects a minimal amount of information, all of which stays on your device:
| Data | Purpose | Where stored |
|---|---|---|
| First name (optional) | Personalize the home screen greeting | On device only |
| Social battery level | Track your daily social energy | On device only |
| Social diary entries | Log social events and energy changes | On device only |
| Completed quests | Track your confidence quest progress | On device only |
| Onboarding preferences | Remember if onboarding was completed | On device only |
| Subscription status | Determine premium feature access | Apple / StoreKit |
All personal data is stored using Apple's SwiftData framework and UserDefaults, which keep data on your device. We never have access to this information.
We want to be explicit about what we do not collect:
All user-generated content in SocialSafe — including your name, battery level history, diary entries, and quest progress — is stored exclusively on your device using Apple's SwiftData framework.
This means:
To delete all your data: go to iPhone Settings → General → iPhone Storage → SocialSafe → Delete App.
SocialSafe offers optional premium subscriptions to unlock additional features:
All purchases are processed exclusively through Apple's App Store and StoreKit. We never see or store your payment information — Apple handles the entire transaction.
Apple's privacy policy governs any data collected during the purchase process: apple.com/legal/privacy
You can manage, cancel, or view your subscription at any time through:
Canceling a subscription stops future charges. Access to premium features continues until the end of the current billing period.
SocialSafe may send local push notifications to remind you to:
These are local notifications — they are scheduled entirely on your device. No notification data is transmitted to our servers. We do not use remote push notification infrastructure.
You can disable notifications at any time through iPhone Settings → Notifications → SocialSafe.
SocialSafe requests microphone permission for the Fake Call feature, which allows you to simulate an incoming phone call to exit social situations.
You can revoke microphone access at any time through iPhone Settings → Privacy & Security → Microphone → SocialSafe.
SocialSafe integrates with the following Apple services only:
| Service | Purpose | Data shared |
|---|---|---|
| Apple StoreKit 2 | Process in-app subscriptions | Purchase receipt (Apple only) |
| Apple UserNotifications | Schedule local reminders | None — local only |
| Apple SwiftData | Store app data on device | None — local only |
| iCloud Backup (optional) | Back up your device data | Managed by Apple |
We do not use Google Analytics, Firebase, Facebook SDK, Mixpanel, Amplitude, Sentry, or any other third-party analytics or tracking service.
SocialSafe is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
Because all data is stored locally on the device and no account creation is required, the app does not collect any information from users of any age that leaves the device.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided information through the app, please contact us and we will address your concerns.
Depending on your location, you may have the following rights regarding your data:
Under the General Data Protection Regulation, you have the right to access, rectify, erase, and restrict processing of your personal data. Since all data is local, these rights are exercised by managing or deleting the app.
California residents have the right to know what personal information is collected and the right to opt out of the sale of personal information. We do not sell personal information.
Brazilian users have rights under the Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados. Since all data is stored locally, you exercise these rights by managing your device and app data.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will:
We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Continued use of the app after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
If you have questions, concerns, or requests regarding this Privacy Policy or your data, please contact us:
