Effective [date]. Draft for review.
Daybreak is a wellness app with a daily routine timed to your local sunrise. This page explains what Daybreak keeps, where, and how to delete it. Daybreak is run by Sunburst LLC ("we").
The short version
- You don't give Daybreak your name or email to use the app. It makes an account for you without either.
- Your plan, the habits you tick and your daily energy word are saved on our server so they're safe and can sync.
- Your chats with Sol stay on your phone. To answer you, each message is sent to our server and to Anthropic, the company that makes the AI model.
- A message that mentions self-harm never goes to the AI. You get a fixed reply with 988 instead.
- No ads, no selling your data, and no tracking across other apps or websites.
- You can delete everything at any time from the app.
What we keep, and why
| What | Where it's kept | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Wake time, wind-down time, theme and reminder settings | Our server | So your plan is saved and can follow you |
| Your city, country, time zone and a rough location (rounded to about 11 km) | Our server | Sunrise and sunset times, and the local sky forecast |
| Which habits you ticked each day, and when | Our server | Your streaks and Insights |
| Your daily energy check-in word (Drained to Bright) | Our server | Your Insights chart |
| The lamp you use, if you add one | Our server | The sitting distance in your light session |
| How many messages you send Sol each day, and their size in tokens | Our server | The daily message limit and keeping costs in check |
| Your setup answers about how winter feels | Your phone only | Shaping your welcome |
| Your chats with Sol (the last 200 messages) | Your phone only | Your own history |
| Lamps you save in the lamp shop | Your phone only | Your own list |
| Your supplements list, if you add one (names, times and your notes) | Your phone only | Your Today tile and optional reminders. It's never sent to Sol or our server, and reminders don't show the names |
| Today's sunrise, sunset, daylight left and walk time, if you add the Daybreak widget | Your phone only | The Home Screen and Lock Screen widget. It shows sky times and your walk time, never your check-ins or chats |
Daybreak asks for your rough location once, during setup, and only while you're using the app. You can type a city instead. It never tracks your location in the background.
Reminders are set on your phone. We don't run a push notification server.
Who else handles it
We use a small number of providers to run Daybreak. Each one handles only what it needs.
| Provider | What it does | What it receives |
|---|---|---|
| Supabase | Stores accounts and the server data in the table above | The server data above |
| Expo (EAS Hosting) | Runs Sol's server | Each message you send Sol, with today's plan, progress, your lamp, the sky outlook and your last 7 days of energy words and light and walk ticks |
| Anthropic | Writes Sol's replies | The same as Expo, to write the reply |
| OpenWeather | The sky forecast | A rough location (about 11 km), sent by our server, never by your phone |
| Apple (TestFlight, during the pilot) | Installs the test app | What Apple's TestFlight collects; crash reports and feedback only if you choose to send them |
| Google Forms (during the pilot) | The pilot feedback form, opened from "Send pilot feedback" in Insights | Only what you type into the form; the app sends nothing to it |
Sol's server records errors, never the words of your messages. [Counsel to confirm: Anthropic's commercial terms on how long API inputs are kept and that they aren't used to train its models.]
The lamp shop
The lamp shop links to other websites. Some links may earn us a commission, and the app says so on every one. When you follow a link, that website's own privacy policy applies. We don't learn what you buy.
How long we keep it
Server data is kept until you delete it, or 13 months after you last use Daybreak, so your history is still there if you come back next winter. [Counsel to confirm the 13 months.] On your phone, daily records are kept for about a year and Sol chats for the last 200 messages.
Deleting your data
Open Insights and tap Delete my data. It removes your account and everything we keep on our server, then clears the app on your phone. It can't be undone. Deleting the app alone leaves the server data in place, so use Delete my data first.
Children
Daybreak is for people 18 and older. If you think someone younger has used it, contact us and we'll delete their data.
Where you live
Daybreak is for people in the United States and Canada during the pilot. [Counsel: any state or Canadian (PIPEDA) wording needed.]
Not medical care
Daybreak is a wellness routine. It doesn't diagnose, treat or prevent any condition, and it isn't a substitute for a clinician. If you're thinking about harming yourself, call or text 988 any time (US and Canada).
Changes and contact
If this policy changes, we'll update the date at the top and tell you in the app before the change takes effect.
