Privacy Policy
Last updated 27 July 2026
The short version
Soul Lift is built to work without knowing much about you. Everything you do is stored on your own device first, and the app is fully usable with no account, no email, and no internet connection.
We do not sell your data, we do not show ads, and we do not use third-party advertising or analytics trackers.
What stays only on your device
The answers you give during onboarding — your age range, gender, relationship status, star sign, how you’re feeling, what you want to improve, and anything you typed — never leave your phone. They are not uploaded to our servers, and they are never sent to any AI provider.
The same is true of any affirmations you write yourself, and of your background-sound and theme preferences.
What we store if you create an account
Adding an email and password is optional and exists for one reason: so your progress survives a lost or replaced phone. If you do, we store the following on our servers, hosted by Supabase:
- Your email address and an encrypted form of your password.
- Your display name, if you entered one.
- Your streak: current run, longest run, total days practised, and the date you last practised.
- Your saved (favourite) affirmations.
- A per-day record of which topic categories you read. This is kept for 90 days and then automatically deleted.
- Your chosen background theme and reminder settings.
Anonymous accounts
When the app first launches it may quietly create an anonymous account for you. This has no email attached and identifies a device, not a person — it exists so that your data has somewhere to live if you later decide to add an email. If you never do, that anonymous record holds nothing that identifies you.
The occasional nudge
The short nudge that sometimes appears at the top of the Home screen is generated by Google’s Gemini model. To produce it we send a deliberately minimal summary: your current streak length, the names of the topic categories you read, and the dates you practised.
We do not send your name, your email, your onboarding answers, anything you have written, or any indication of your mood. The model cannot identify you from what it receives.
You should know that Google’s free service tier may use content submitted to it to improve their models. This is precisely why the summary we send contains no personal or identifying information.
Notifications
Daily reminders are scheduled locally by your own phone. We are not told when they fire, whether you opened them, or whether you dismissed them, and no reminder data reaches our servers.
Photos you upload
If you add your own background photo, it is copied into the app’s private storage on your device. It is not uploaded to us and not shared with anyone.
Children
Soul Lift is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
Your rights and choices
You can erase everything held on your device at any time using Profile → Settings → Reset app.
If you have an account and want the server-side copy accessed, corrected, exported, or permanently deleted, email [email protected] and we will action it. Depending on where you live you may have these rights under the GDPR, the UK GDPR, or the CCPA; we honour them regardless of where you live.
Service providers
We use Supabase for account storage and syncing, and Google (Gemini) for the nudge described above. Those providers process data on our behalf under their own terms. We do not share your information with anyone else.
Changes to this policy
If we change what we collect or how we use it, we will update this page and the date at the top. Continuing to use Soul Lift after a change means you accept the updated policy.
Terms & Conditions
Last updated 27 July 2026
Agreement
These terms are between you and Soul Lift (“we”, “us”), and they govern your use of the Soul Lift app. By using the app you accept them. If you do not accept them, please stop using the app.
Soul Lift is not medical care
This is the most important term here. Soul Lift provides affirmations and general wellbeing content for reflection. It is not therapy, counselling, or medical advice, and it is not a substitute for care from a qualified professional.
Nothing in the app — including the AI-written nudges — should be used to diagnose or treat any condition, and you should not delay or disregard professional advice because of something you read here.
If you are in crisis or may be at risk of harming yourself, please contact your local emergency services or a crisis line immediately. Soul Lift cannot help in an emergency and does not monitor for them.
Your account
You may use Soul Lift without an account. If you create one, you are responsible for keeping your password secure and for activity that happens under your account. Tell us promptly if you believe it has been compromised.
You must be at least 13 years old to use Soul Lift.
Subscriptions and payment
Some features may be offered as a paid subscription. If they are, the price and billing period are shown to you before you purchase, and payment is taken by Apple through your App Store account.
Subscriptions renew automatically unless you turn renewal off at least 24 hours before the period ends. You manage and cancel subscriptions in your Apple ID settings, not in Soul Lift — we cannot cancel or refund an App Store purchase on your behalf. Refunds are handled by Apple under their policies.
Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Break the law, or use Soul Lift to harm or harass anyone.
- Copy, resell, or redistribute the affirmation library or other app content.
- Reverse engineer the app, or try to access accounts or data that are not yours.
- Interfere with the app’s operation, or attempt to overwhelm or probe our systems.
Content you write
Affirmations you write and photos you add remain yours. They are stored on your own device and we do not claim any rights over them.
Our content
The affirmation library, artwork, designs, and the Soul Lift name remain our property or our licensors’. You get a personal, non-transferable licence to use them inside the app, and nothing more.
Availability
We aim to keep Soul Lift working but cannot promise it will always be available or error-free. Features may change or be withdrawn, and syncing depends on services and connections outside our control.
Your data
Because Soul Lift stores your progress on your device, uninstalling the app without an account permanently deletes it. Keep an account if that matters to you — we cannot recover data we never held.
Liability
To the fullest extent the law allows, the app is provided “as is”, and we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, or for lost data. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot legally be limited — including for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud.
Ending your use
You can stop using Soul Lift at any time by deleting it. We may suspend or end access if these terms are seriously or repeatedly broken.
Changes
We may update these terms. If a change is significant we will make that clear in the app, and continuing to use Soul Lift means you accept the updated terms.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of Victoria, Australia, and disputes fall to the courts of Victoria, Australia.
