Privacy Policy

  1. Things that we save

    2. We save your personal information. This includes

    • name
    • username
    • profile photo
    • email
    • password
    • phone number
    • diaries
    • time capsules
    • chat messages
    • friend relationships

    We save these types of data to operate the service.

    Notes

    Your email and password (hashed with salt; it's a cryptography terminology) are saved when you create an account.

    If you use a social login (such as "Continue with Apple"), no password will be saved.

    Email is used to identify your account and to notify you when there's an update on policies.

    Password is used to protect your account from others. Don't reuse passwords.

    Phone number is used for 2-Step Verification and finding friends through contacts. Your profile is suggested to others only when both you and the other person have the contacts of each other.

    Profiles are public, meaning that they can be accessed by anyone using Atrable.

    We will never disclose your private diaries and chat messages to anybody. However, if your government desperately wants your data, we will... disclose it to your government. (We have to survive too bro)

    To prevent us from being blamed, we're developing end-to-end encryption for chat messages. It'll be released soon.

  2. When do we save your data?

    3. The data is saved when you use Atrable; for example, when you create an Atrable account, save (upload) a diary, send a chat message, etc.

  3. Where do we save your data?

    4. Firebase Authentication (managed by Google) is used to authenticate your access to our service.

    Cloud Firestore (managed by Google) is used to store most data, including your profile, diaries, time capsules, friend relationships, and chat messages.

    Cloud Storage for Firebase (managed by Google) is used to save audio, photo, and video files that you upload.

    Cloud Functions for Firebase (managed by Google) are used for automated actions, such as notifying you of new messages from friends, friend reactions to your diary, and counting the number of reactions on diaries.

    Firebase Cloud Messaging (managed by Google) is used to send you notifications.

    Typesense Cloud is used for the search feature.

    Note: Even though your data is transferred to the service providers listed above, our Google Play Data Safety page does not state that we share your data with a third party. This is because Google does not consider "transferring user data to a service provider" as "sharing" data with a third party.

  4. How do we manage your data?

    5. We use encryption technologies to keep your data safe while in transit.

    We have systematic security rules set up to prevent unauthorized access to your data.
