Privacy Policy
Effective September 24, 2026
What this policy covers
This policy explains how SerenTao handles information when you use the iPhone and Apple Watch app, its support pages, or contact support. SerenTao is a meditation and sleep app, not medical care, therapy, crisis intervention, or an emergency service.
Information kept on your device
The app stores information used by its local features, including onboarding choices, practice progress, journal entries, favorites, recently played soundscapes, reminder preferences, and local privacy exports. Practice totals can sync between your iPhone and paired Apple Watch through Apple's Watch Connectivity. You can export or delete local iPhone information from the Privacy screen. Deleting iPhone data does not delete records retained on your Watch or copies you have already shared elsewhere.
Purchases and Premium access
Apple processes App Store purchases. SerenTao uses Apple's StoreKit to read verified subscription status on your device and restore purchases. SerenTao does not receive payment-card details and does not use a third-party purchase SDK. We do not sell personal information or use it for advertising. A future online Legacy recovery service will require updated disclosures before collecting recovery evidence.
Sharing and service providers
We share only the minimum information needed for a service to operate. Providers that process data for SerenTao must protect it consistently with this policy. The current release does not enable an account or cloud data service until its privacy disclosures, security controls, and deletion process are ready.
Retention and deletion
Local practice information remains on your device until you delete it or delete the app. Support records and purchase-related entitlement records are retained only for the period needed to resolve support, fraud-prevention, accounting, or legal obligations. When online account features are enabled, this policy will be updated before collection begins to explain the available deletion process and retention periods.
Your choices
You can manage notifications in the app and in iOS Settings. You can export or delete local app data from the Privacy screen. To ask a question about support, privacy, or a purchase, use the support contact shown on this site. You can also contact Apple about App Store purchase and subscription controls.
Updates
We may update this policy when the app or its data practices change. Material changes will be reflected by a new effective date and, where required, an in-app notice before the changed practice begins.
