Privacy Policy for Slow Living
1. Introduction
Welcome to Slow Living ("we," "our," or "us"). We respect your privacy and believe that a peaceful mindfulness space should be completely private. This Privacy Policy explains how information is handled when you install and use the Slow Living mobile application (Package ID: ) distributed via Google Play.
2. Information We Do Not Collect
Slow Living is engineered to function completely offline without requiring user registration or internet connectivity. Specifically, we do not collect, request, or access:
- Personal identifiers (such as your name, email address, phone number, or home address).
- Account credentials, passwords, or social login profiles.
- Precise or approximate geographic location data (GPS, Wi-Fi, or cellular network location).
- Device identifiers, advertising IDs (AAID/GAID), IP addresses, or hardware serial numbers.
- Photos, media files, contacts, calendar events, microphone audio, or camera feeds.
- Analytics, crash telemetry, behavioral tracking, or advertising metrics.
3. Local On-Device Data Storage
To provide core app features, Slow Living stores your preferences and entries locally on your device using Android's standard sandboxed storage (SharedPreferences). This local data includes:
| Data Type | Purpose | Where It Is Stored |
|---|---|---|
| Journal Reflections & Moods | Allows you to write and revisit personal mindfulness notes and daily mood selections. | Strictly on your device (never transmitted externally). |
| Completed Ritual Dates | Helps you view your peaceful moments history within the app. | Strictly on your device (never transmitted externally). |
| App Preferences | Remembers your welcome onboarding status, reminder toggle, and theme preference. | Strictly on your device (never transmitted externally). |
4. Android Permissions
Slow Living follows a strict least-privilege security model:
- No Internet Permission: The app does not declare
android.permission.INTERNET, making it technically impossible for the app to transmit your journal entries or activity history over the internet. - No Dangerous Runtime Permissions: The app does not request access to your camera, microphone, storage, contacts, or location.
5. Data Control, Retention & Deletion
Because all data resides exclusively on your device, you have complete ownership and control over your data at all times:
- In-App Deletion: You can permanently delete all saved reflections, mood selections, and completed moments at any time by opening the app, navigating to Settings → Clear saved data, and confirming deletion.
- System-Level Deletion: Clearing the application's storage in your Android device settings or uninstalling Slow Living permanently erases all locally stored data from your device.
- Android Auto Backup: If enabled in your device's operating system settings, Android may include app data in your personal Google Drive device backup governed by Google's Privacy Policy.
6. Third-Party Services & SDKs
Slow Living does not integrate any third-party advertising networks, analytics providers, cloud databases, or tracking SDKs. The application uses only standard open-source Android Jetpack / AndroidX UI libraries that run locally on your device.
7. Children's Privacy
Slow Living does not knowingly or unknowingly collect personal information from anyone, including children under the age of 13 (or the applicable age of digital consent in your jurisdiction). Because no personal data is collected or transmitted, the app complies with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
8. Changes to This Privacy Policy
If we update this Privacy Policy in the future, we will revise the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. Any changes will continue to uphold our commitment to user privacy and transparency.
