Privacy Policy
Your personal reflection belongs to you. Here is how the app handles information, permissions and external services.
Who this policy covers
Clarity Recovery is an app from Agape Labs, a brand of Exaltes Global Private Limited, Pune, Maharashtra, India. This policy covers the app. The Exaltes Global website privacy policy covers this website.
Privacy questions and requests can be sent to hello@exaltesglobal.com. Please do not send your journal, health records or other sensitive details unless they are necessary to your request.
Information stored on your device
The app stores your recovery information locally rather than in an Exaltes Global recovery-data account. This includes:
- Profile preferences, such as name, age range, gender, country, language, personal reasons, goal and optional faith preference.
- Self-check answers and results, streaks, urges, slips, check-ins, journal notes, gratitude and habit records.
- Your chosen accountability partner’s name and phone number, reminder preferences, appearance, setup and protection settings.
These records are used to show your progress, personalise your experience and help you reflect. The app does not require a Clarity Recovery account. Your recovery entries are not sent to RevenueCat or the content-feed provider by the app.
Optional health and Instagram features
With your permission, the optional health feature reads steps, sleep and heart rate through Android Health Connect or Apple HealthKit. The app uses these readings on your device; it does not upload them to Exaltes Global. You can revoke health access in your phone’s health or permission settings.
The Instagram follow check reads an export file you choose on your device. It does not sign in to Instagram or request your password. Matches are based on account names and may be inaccurate; review them yourself.
Protection and device permissions
On Android, the website blocker uses a local DNS-only VPN to send website-name lookups to CleanBrowsing’s Family filter. The DNS provider receives the lookups and network information needed to answer them, such as your IP address. This feature is not an anonymity VPN and does not route all your browsing traffic through Clarity Recovery. On iPhone, the app guides you to a DNS profile.
The optional Android mindful pause uses an accessibility service to notice when selected apps open and display a pause screen. It is used for this protection feature, not to upload a record of app use to Exaltes Global.
Notifications, health access, file selection, VPN and accessibility permissions are requested for the relevant features. You can change or revoke permissions in your device settings. Some features stop working when their permission is removed.
Subscriptions and external services
When billing is enabled, RevenueCat works with Google Play or the Apple App Store to manage purchases and subscription access. These providers process purchase receipts or tokens, an app-user identifier, subscription status and associated technical information. This is separate from your locally stored journal and recovery records. Payment details are handled by the relevant store, not entered into Clarity Recovery.
The app can load research summaries and consented stories from a remote content feed. The current feed is hosted on GitHub. Fetching it sends an ordinary network request, which may include your IP address and technical request information. Opening a research link, helpline, store, app guide or other external service is subject to that service’s own practices.
Relevant provider notices: RevenueCat, CleanBrowsing, GitHub, Google and Apple.
Sharing you choose
The accountability feature opens a prepared message or your device’s sharing interface. You choose whether to send it and to whom. The recipient and your messaging service then receive what you send. Ask your partner before adding their contact details.
If you contact us or submit a story, we receive the information you choose to send and use it to respond or handle the submission. We will obtain your permission before publishing a personal recovery story. You can contact us about withdrawing that permission.
Retention, deletion and security
Your local app records remain on your device until you reset them or remove the app’s data. Use Settings → Erase all data to reset the app. Uninstalling normally removes its local storage; your operating system or device backup settings may retain or restore a separate copy. Check those settings if you want to remove backups too.
Resetting or uninstalling does not cancel a subscription or erase store, RevenueCat, DNS-provider or messaging records. Those providers handle their own retention. Contact us for help with data we receive through support or story submissions; we retain that correspondence as needed to address the request and meet applicable legal obligations.
Local storage is not a promise of app-level encryption or absolute security. Protect your phone with a screen lock, keep it updated and consider who can access its backups. We cannot remotely retrieve a journal stored only on your phone.
Your choices and privacy requests
You can edit your profile, switch off faith content, change reminders, stop protection, revoke optional permissions and erase local records. You can request access, correction or deletion of information you have sent to us, or raise a privacy concern, at hello@exaltesglobal.com. We will address requests under applicable law; some records may need to be retained for legal reasons.
If you are a minor, involve a parent or guardian where permission is required, particularly for purchases or sharing personal information. Parents or guardians can contact us with privacy concerns. We do not need a child’s recovery journal to handle a support request.
Changes to this policy
We will update this page when the app’s data handling changes and revise the date above. Material changes will be brought to users’ attention through an appropriate notice. Review the policy for the app version and features you use.
