This Privacy Policy explains how OverThink ("OverThink", "we", "our", or "us") collects, uses, discloses, and protects information when you use the OverThink app, subscription features, and related legal pages.

Scope

  • This Policy applies to OverThink mobile app usage and OverThink+ subscription-related processing.
  • Third-party platforms and services (including Apple and your email provider) are governed by their own privacy policies.

Information We Collect

Account and Authentication Information

  • OverThink uses Sign in with Apple.
  • Apple may provide a stable account identifier and, if you choose to share it, your email address.
  • We do not collect or store account passwords.

Check-In and App Content

  • You may enter thoughts, reflections, check-in responses, distress ratings, and similar app content.
  • When iCloud sync is enabled, synced content is stored in Apple CloudKit and associated with your iCloud account.
  • Synced content is encrypted in transit and at rest through Apple's infrastructure.
  • OverThink also applies app-level encryption to cloud-synced payloads before upload.
  • On-device session storage is encrypted and protected by iOS data protection controls.

Subscription and Purchase Information

  • OverThink+ purchases are processed by Apple through in-app purchase.
  • We may receive limited subscription metadata from Apple, including product identifiers, trial status, entitlement status, renewal status, transaction references, and expiration dates.
  • We do not receive full payment card numbers, bank account numbers, or complete payment credentials.

Usage, Diagnostics, and Analytics

  • We collect limited analytics and diagnostic information to operate and improve the app.
  • This may include feature usage, reliability signals, app events, and crash/performance information.
  • Analytics may be processed through Cloudflare and similar service infrastructure.
  • We do not sell personal information and do not run cross-app advertising tracking.

Notifications

  • If you opt in, we may send local or push reminders.
  • Notification permissions are optional and can be changed in device settings.

Support Communications

  • The app may open your email app so you can contact us at overthinkapp@gmail.com.
  • If you send us email, we receive the message content and standard email metadata (for example sender address and headers).

How We Use Information

We may use information to:

  • Provide, maintain, secure, and improve OverThink.
  • Deliver core app functions, including check-ins, reminders, sync, and account-linked experiences.
  • Determine OverThink+ subscription access and entitlement state.
  • Diagnose errors, prevent abuse, and maintain app integrity.
  • Respond to support requests, bug reports, and user feedback.
  • Meet legal, regulatory, and compliance obligations.

How Subscription Data Is Handled

  • Subscription billing, cancellation, renewals, and refunds are handled by Apple under Apple's terms.
  • We rely on Apple-provided subscription state data to enable or disable premium features.
  • Billing disputes and refund requests should be submitted through Apple.

How We Share Information

We may share limited information with service providers that support app operations, including:

  • Apple (authentication, CloudKit sync/storage, in-app purchase handling).
  • Cloud and analytics infrastructure providers.
  • Email infrastructure in connection with user-initiated support communications.

We may also disclose information when necessary to:

  • Comply with applicable law, legal process, or enforceable government request.
  • Protect rights, safety, and security of users, us, or others.
  • Support a merger, financing, acquisition, reorganization, bankruptcy, or transfer of assets, where permitted by law.

Data Retention

  • We retain information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes in this Policy.
  • Cloud-synced check-in content remains in your CloudKit/iCloud context unless deleted by you or removed under platform behavior.
  • Subscription metadata may be retained for entitlement integrity, fraud prevention, tax/accounting, and legal compliance.
  • Support records may be retained to respond to ongoing issues and maintain service history.

Data Security

  • We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards.
  • Safeguards include encrypted local session storage and encrypted payload handling for cloud-synced content.
  • No system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

International Processing

  • Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for cross-border processing.

Your Choices and Rights
