Hush Habit privacy policy
Hush Habit is a local-first, self-reflection utility for reducing a habit. The app does not require an account, does not use advertising SDKs, does not use analytics SDKs, does not offer in-app purchases, and does not track users across apps or websites. Hush Habit collects nothing.
What the app stores
The records you create — check-ins, ridden-out urges, categories, replacement actions, urge-intensity ratings, notes, and dates — are stored on your device using UserDefaults. They are never sent to a server, never synced to iCloud by the app, and are not shared with anyone.
Urge surfing and breathing
The guided "ride the wave" session, the paced breathing animation, and the HALT self-check run entirely on your device. Nothing about a session is transmitted. Any record you choose to save from a session is stored locally like any other record.
Exports
When you create a weekly reflection PDF, a plain-text summary, or a CSV file, it is generated on your device from your local records. The file is only shared if you explicitly send it through the Apple system share sheet to a destination you choose. Hush Habit does not upload exports anywhere.
Tracking, analytics, and advertising
Hush Habit does not use third-party analytics, advertising SDKs, fingerprinting, cross-app tracking, or data brokers. The app does not collect data for tracking.
Data sharing
Hush Habit does not sell, rent, disclose, or share personal data with third parties. Sharing happens only when you initiate it through the system share sheet.
Health and medical disclaimer
Hush Habit is a self-reflection and habit-reduction utility. It is not medical or mental-health treatment, and it does not diagnose, treat, or provide clinical advice. Its urge-surfing and HALT content is educational, adapted from general relapse-prevention practice. If you are struggling, please contact a qualified professional.
Children's privacy
Hush Habit is a general-audience utility and is not directed to children under 13.
