Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 23, 2026
Your trust matters. This policy explains what we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have — especially for private reflections and journals.
1. Our privacy commitment
InBetween is built for sensitive moments. We aim to collect only what we need to run the service, protect accounts, and support your experience.
We do not sell your personal information. Private reflections and journals are not used for advertising.
2. Information we collect
Depending on how you use InBetween, we may collect:
- Email address (for sign-in and account communication)
- Private reflections and chat messages
- Journal entries
- Community posts and replies
- Anonymous handle, avatar, and profile settings
- Basic usage and security data, such as device/browser information and logs needed to keep the service safe and reliable
3. Private reflections and journals
Private reflections and journal entries are treated as sensitive content.
They are not publicly visible. Access is limited to your signed-in account and the systems needed to store and display them back to you.
4. Community content
Posts and replies in community spaces may be visible to other users depending on how the feature is designed.
Please be thoughtful about what you share publicly. Community identity may use an anonymous handle or display settings you choose in your profile.
5. How we use information
We use information to provide and improve InBetween, keep accounts secure, respond to support requests, and maintain community safety.
We do not sell user data. User-written private content should not be used for advertising.
6. AI processing
When you use reflection or related features, your messages or journal content may be processed by AI providers to generate responses, reflections, summaries, or resource suggestions.
We work to limit processing to what is needed for the feature you are using. AI providers process data according to their own terms and our agreements with them.
InBetween is not a HIPAA-covered health platform, and we do not claim HIPAA compliance.
7. Service providers
We use trusted service providers to operate InBetween — for example, hosting, authentication, email delivery, analytics needed for reliability, and AI infrastructure.
These providers may process data on our behalf only as needed to deliver the service.
8. Cookies and local storage
InBetween uses cookies and local storage for sign-in, security, and basic preferences.
For example, authentication sessions and sign-in flows may rely on cookies so you can stay signed in safely.
9. Data security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information.
No online service can guarantee perfect security, but we work to reduce risk and respond to issues responsibly.
10. Data retention
We keep information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the service, comply with law, resolve disputes, and enforce our policies.
You may be able to delete certain content through the app. Account-level deletion options may evolve over time.
11. Deleting your account or data
You can delete individual reflections or journal entries where the app provides that option.
If you need help deleting your account or understanding what remains stored, contact us at the email below.
12. Children’s privacy
InBetween is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
If you believe a child has provided us personal information, please contact us so we can take appropriate steps.
13. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the “Last updated” date on this page.
If changes are meaningful, we may provide additional notice inside the app or by email.
