Privacy policy

Last updated: July 13, 2026

Introduction

Anviah is built to be private by default. This policy explains what Anviah stores and processes locally, what Anviah does not collect or access, and how optional Apple services fit in.

Who we are

Anviah is provided under the Anviah name.

Privacy contact / person responsible for protection of personal information: hello@anviah.com

What Anviah stores locally

Anviah stores and processes the information you choose to add in the app, such as:

- Your journey type and cycle rhythm

- Gardens and cycle history

- Timeline details, including projected steps, edited step titles or dates, hidden steps, custom steps, private step notes, and treatment protocol choices you enter

- Appointments, medications, tasks, and questions

- Care logs, mood check-ins, and journal entries

- Journal photos and cycle icon photos, if you choose to add them

- App settings and reminder preferences

This information is stored locally on your device by default.

Anviah does not create an account on an Anviah server, and Anviah does not send your in-app fertility data to an Anviah server.

What Anviah does not collect or access

Anviah does not collect or access your in-app fertility data on Anviah-operated servers.

Anviah does not collect analytics or usage tracking.

Anviah does not collect advertising identifiers.

Anviah does not track your device location.

Anviah does not access your contacts or calendar.

Anviah does not use third-party SDKs.

Anviah does not sell your personal information.

Anviah does not share your personal information for advertising or targeted ads.

Website analytics

The Anviah website uses Vercel Web Analytics to understand aggregate page visits. It does not use cookies or advertising identifiers, and it does not collect the fertility information you enter in the Anviah app.

App information from Apple

If you agree to share analytics with Apple in your iPhone settings, Apple may provide Anviah with app-level information, such as downloads, crashes, or performance reports.

This is aggregate information about the app from Apple's App Store and operating system. It does not include the journal entries, mood check-ins, notes, or other content you write or save inside Anviah, and it does not come from tracking inside the app.

iCloud sync

iCloud sync is optional.

If you turn it on, supported Anviah data can sync through your iCloud account so it can be available on your Apple devices. iCloud sync uses Apple platform services and is handled by Apple under Apple's policies.

To use iCloud sync, Anviah may ask you to connect with Apple. Turning sync on or off may require restarting the app before the change fully takes effect.

If you leave iCloud sync off, your Anviah data stays local to your device only.

Partner mode

Partner mode is optional. It lets you invite one partner to share the practical parts of your journey, so they can follow along and help from their own device.

Partner mode requires iCloud sync to be on. When you connect a partner, a defined subset of your Anviah data syncs through your iCloud account so your partner can see it. Anviah does not run a server for this; sharing happens through Apple platform services.

Shared with a connected partner: appointments, medications and dose actions, tasks, questions and answers, the garden and cycle stages, cycle outcomes, cycle icons or cycle icon photos, the partner-visible Timeline map, and Tender notes and signs of support.

Notes and details you attach to shared items travel with them. For example, appointment notes and locations, task notes, dose notes, question notes, and cycle outcome notes are visible to your connected partner.

The partner-visible Timeline map can include step order, dates, statuses, edited or custom step titles, hidden-step state, terminal state, and branch information such as fresh-transfer intent. Free-text Timeline step notes are not shared. The treatment protocol field itself is not shared as a separate setting, but the visible Timeline may reflect the protocol-shaped step list.

Never shared, even in Partner mode: journal entries and photos, mood check-ins, daily welcome answers, free-text Timeline step notes, and activities in meditations, breathing, affirmations and slow moments. App Lock choices stay separate on each device.

Partner mode stays under the control of both people. Either person can end the connection at any time in Settings, and turning off iCloud sync stops Partner mode sharing until it is turned back on. Information already received may remain on the other person's device.

Sign in with Apple

If you choose to connect with Apple, Anviah may request your email address and full name from Apple.

Anviah stores your Apple-provided user identifier, and may store your Apple-provided email address and name if Apple provides them. This information is stored locally and is used to support Apple connection features, including iCloud sync and App Lock recovery.

Camera and photo access

Anviah only asks for camera or photo library access if you choose to add a photo to a journal entry or choose a photo as a cycle icon.

You can use Anviah without giving camera or photo access.

App Lock

App Lock can use either your iPhone passcode or a separate code you set only for Anviah.

If you use your iPhone passcode, verification is handled by iOS. Anviah does not store your passcode, a hash of it, or any separate secret — only a small Keychain item that iOS unlocks with your device authentication. You stay able to get in as long as you know your iPhone passcode.

If you set a separate Anviah code, Anviah stores the information needed to check it in the iOS Keychain on your device. This includes a hash and salt, not the code itself.

Either way, you can use Face ID or Touch ID as a faster path. When you do, authentication is handled by iOS, and Anviah does not receive or store your face or fingerprint data.

If you use a separate Anviah code, recovery depends on Sign in with Apple and iCloud sync being available. If recovery is not available, reinstalling Anviah may be the only way to reset App Lock, and local data may be lost.

Reminders and notifications

Anviah can send reminders for medications, appointments, and tasks that you create. If you turn them on, Anviah can also send wellbeing reminders such as a daily encouragement, a bedtime wind-down, and hydration reminders.

Notification scheduling is handled on your device through Apple notification services. Reminder content may appear in system notifications depending on your iPhone settings.

Feedback

If you choose to send feedback, Anviah opens your email app. Your message is sent only when you decide to send it.

Feedback is user-initiated. Anviah does not send logs, analytics, or support messages automatically.

How Anviah protects local data

Anviah relies on iOS device security, app sandboxing, and the protections on your iPhone.

Files Anviah writes, including journal photos and recovery backups, use iOS complete file protection where implemented. App Lock code material is stored in the iOS Keychain.

No app can promise perfect security. Keeping your device passcode strong and your Apple account secure helps protect your Anviah data.

When Anviah may share information

Information may be handled by Apple platform services when you choose features such as iCloud sync, Sign in with Apple, Keychain, biometrics, notifications, camera, or photos. These are Apple operating system services, not third-party SDKs inside Anviah.

If you choose to use Partner mode, you share a defined subset of your Anviah data with one partner you invite. You can stop this at any time by removing the partner or turning off iCloud sync. See "Partner mode" above.

We may disclose information if required by law. Because Anviah does not run servers for your fertility data, we generally do not have access to the personal information you store inside the app.

Deleting your data

You can delete certain entries inside Anviah where deletion is provided, or use Settings to erase Anviah data from your device.

If you uninstall Anviah, local Anviah data on that device is removed with the app.

Uninstalling Anviah does not by itself delete Anviah data already synced to iCloud.

If iCloud sync is enabled, the erase option can also clear supported Anviah data from iCloud through your device. Other Apple devices may need to sync before the change is reflected everywhere.

Children

Anviah is intended for people age 16 and older.

Anviah does not knowingly collect or access personal information from children. Anviah does not use an age gate, so if you believe a child has used Anviah in a way that raises a privacy concern, contact hello@anviah.com.

Consumer health data notice

Some information you choose to add to Anviah may be considered sensitive personal information, consumer health data, or reproductive health data depending on where you live.

Categories of consumer health data stored by Anviah may include fertility journey details, cycle history, Timeline details, medication and appointment information, care logs, mood check-ins, journal entries, journal photos, cycle icon photos, questions, plan tasks, and related settings you create in the app.

Sources of this data are you and, if you use Partner mode, the partner-sharing connection you choose to create through Apple platform services.

Anviah uses this data to provide app features you request, such as organizing your journey, showing your garden and cycle history, saving journal and care information, scheduling reminders, syncing supported data through iCloud when enabled, and sharing the Partner mode subset with the partner you invite.

Categories of consumer health data shared are limited to supported data handled through Apple platform services when you choose features such as iCloud sync, Sign in with Apple, notifications, camera, photos, or Partner mode. In Partner mode, the shared categories are described in "Partner mode" above.

Anviah does not sell consumer health data, and Anviah does not share consumer health data for advertising or targeted ads.

Your privacy rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, object to, or receive a copy of personal information held about you. You may also have rights related to sensitive personal information, consumer health data, or reproductive health data.

These rights may apply under laws such as Quebec privacy law, California privacy law, Washington's My Health My Data Act, or European and French data protection laws.

Because Anviah stores your fertility data locally by default and does not run an Anviah server for that data, many privacy actions happen directly on your device: editing entries, deleting entries where deletion is provided, using the erase option, changing iCloud settings, or uninstalling the app.

To make a privacy request, contact hello@anviah.com. We will respond as required by applicable law.

If you are in Quebec, you may also have the right to contact the Commission d'accès à l'information du Québec.

Changes to this policy

We may update this privacy policy when Anviah changes or when legal requirements change.

The updated policy will be included in the app with a new "Last updated" date.
