App Privacy Policy

🔒Our commitment to your privacy

AntiOverthinking is a personal mental-wellness app. Your thoughts, moods, and progress are private by design — they live on your device, not on our servers. This policy explains exactly what we collect, what we don’t, and how to remove your data at any time.

By using AntiOverthinking you agree to the practices described here. If you disagree with anything, please stop using the app and contact us to delete your account.

📋Data we collect

We collect the minimum information needed to create and identify your account:

  • Email address — used to sign in and to contact you if you request account deletion.
  • Display name — the name you choose when registering, shown inside the app.

Both are managed by Firebase Authentication (Google LLC) and are never stored on our own servers beyond what Firebase provides.

That’s it. We do not collect your journal entries, mood scores, exercise history, streaks, or any other in-app content. See the next section.

📱Data stored only on your device

Everything you write or track in the app is saved in your device’s local storage (AsyncStorage). It never leaves your phone unless you uninstall the app.

  • Journal entries — title, body, mood, tag, and date
  • Daily mood check-ins
  • Exercise history — which exercises you completed and when
  • Streaks and progress — calculated from local activity data
  • App preferences — any settings you configure
Consequence: If you uninstall the app, all of this data is permanently deleted from your device. We cannot recover it for you because we never had a copy.

🔗Third-party services

AntiOverthinking uses one third-party service for authentication:


We use no advertising networks, no analytics SDKs, and no crash-reporting services that would transmit your data to third parties.

🚫What we never do

  • No ads Never — we do not show advertisements or work with ad networks.
  • No behavioural tracking Never — we do not track how you navigate the app or build usage profiles.
  • No data selling Never — we do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties for commercial purposes.
  • No background data collection Never — the app does not collect data when it is not in use.

🗑️Deleting your data

You have the right to delete your account and all associated data at any time.

  • In-app: Go to ProfileDelete Account. This removes your Firebase Authentication record immediately. All locally stored data is cleared from your device when you uninstall the app.
  • By email: Send a deletion request to hello@antioverthinking.com. We will process your request within 30 days.
After account deletion your email and display name are removed from Firebase. Local data (journals, moods, progress) is not accessible to us and is erased when you uninstall the app.

👶Children’s privacy

AntiOverthinking is not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has created an account, please contact us at hello@antioverthinking.com and we will delete the account promptly.

🛡️Security

Authentication is handled by Firebase, which uses industry-standard encryption (TLS in transit, AES-256 at rest) for the credentials it stores. Your in-app content (journal entries, mood data) never leaves your device, so it is not exposed to network-level risks.

📄Changes to this policy

If we make material changes to this policy we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. For significant changes we will notify you via the email address on your account. Continued use of the app after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
