Privacy policy

Information we collect

VibeScan uses app, chat, and report information to provide saved insights. This may include an anonymous app installation ID, your selected relationship context, imported chat text needed for analysis, the name you pick as yours in a chat (so your messages can be told apart), generated reports, saved report settings, subscription status, and app preferences such as language and display choices.

Chat data and AI analysis

VibeScan uses exported chat content to generate relationship and communication insights. We process chat content only to provide the app features you request, such as a Vibe Score, effort balance, red and green flag summaries, timeline, and shareable result cards. We do not sell private chat data or use chat content for advertising.

Before your first scan, the app asks for your permission to send chats for AI analysis. When you start a scan, the app sends the chat text, including the other person's messages, and the relationship you picked to our server. Our server sends it to OpenAI to generate the report. OpenAI processes it under its API data terms and does not use it to train its models.

Our server keeps the chat text only until its analysis starts. We keep the finished report until you delete it. A report can include short quotes from the chat, short summaries of parts of the chat, and the chat's last few messages, so a later export of the same chat can be updated with just its new messages.

Reports are AI-generated and may be incomplete, inaccurate, or miss context. VibeScan frames outputs as reflection and entertainment, not professional relationship, legal, safety, medical, or mental health advice.

Sharing and consent

You should only import chats you have the right to use. If you share a result card, choose the privacy options that hide names or sensitive message text where appropriate. Do not use VibeScan to harass, expose, threaten, or make serious accusations about another person.

Services we use

• Hosting: we use service providers to host the app backend, process reports, and keep app services available.
• AI processing: we send the chat content and relationship context required for a requested report to OpenAI so it can generate the report.
• Purchases: paid access is handled through Apple and RevenueCat, which manages subscriptions for us. We receive purchase status information, not your payment card details.
• Email: if you write to alm.labs.apps@gmail.com, we use your message and address to reply and to follow up if needed.
• This site: like any website, hosting may keep basic technical logs, such as IP address and requested page.

Your choices

You can delete individual reports in the app. Delete All Data in Settings deletes your imported chats and reports from your device and from our server, where deleted data is overwritten. Backups of our database are kept for 7 days, so deleted data leaves them within 7 days. We keep records of how many scans a subscription used and of its subscription status, which contain no chat content, to enforce limits and prevent abuse. You can also contact us for help with deleting your data. Some records may be retained when required for security, legal, tax, purchase, or service-operation reasons.

Children

VibeScan is not directed at children under 13 or the local digital age of majority. We do not knowingly collect information from children for marketing.

Changes

We may update this policy. When we do, we will change the date below. For important changes we may also note them in the app where that makes sense.
