Breathawear
Privacy Policy
Last updated July 13, 2026
This policy explains how Breathawear handles information when you use our mobile app, wearable-connected features, website, dashboard, and community experiences.
Information we collect
- Account information: email address, name or display name, account identifier, authentication records, and the preferences you choose.
- Breathing and wellness information: sensor readings, breathing rate, depth, phase, coherence, breathing zones, session history, baselines, goals, and tags you add to a session.
- Device and app information: wearable identifiers, Bluetooth connection state, app events, diagnostics, crash details, and technical logs used to operate and improve the service.
- Community information: posts, comments, reactions, Grove participation, and session summaries you choose to share.
On older Android versions, location permission may be required by the operating system to scan for nearby Bluetooth devices. Breathawear uses that permission for device connection and does not use it to build an advertising profile.
Optional health data
Connecting Health Connect or Apple Health is optional and requires your authorization. In this release, Breathawear reads heart-rate and sleep data only when you grant access. Processing and 7-day summaries remain on your device and are not uploaded or shared.
We do not use Health Connect or Apple Health data for advertising, and we do not transfer or sell it. You can revoke access at any time in your operating-system settings and remove locally processed health data from the app. Health charts and summaries support wellness awareness and are not medical advice or a diagnosis.
How we use information
- Provide account access, wearable connection, live feedback, and session history.
- Calculate personal trends, baselines, reports, progress, and practice guidance.
- Operate community, Grove, notification, and support features you choose to use.
- Protect the service, diagnose failures, prevent abuse, and improve reliability.
- Meet legal obligations and enforce our terms.
Sharing and service providers
We do not sell personal information. We use service providers to run Breathawear, including Supabase for authentication, database, storage, and real-time features; Expo and operating-system providers for app delivery and notifications; and Google when you choose Google sign-in. These providers process information for the services they perform for us and under their own applicable terms.
Content you deliberately post to Community or share with a Grove is visible to the audience indicated by that feature. We may also disclose information when required by law, to protect users or the service, or as part of a business transaction subject to appropriate safeguards.
Data security, retention, and deletion
We use encrypted network connections, authenticated access, and database access controls to protect personal and sensitive information. No system can guarantee absolute security.
We retain account information and associated breathing records while your account is active or as needed to provide the service. Technical logs are retained only as needed for security, diagnostics, and operational purposes. Information may be retained longer when required for legal, fraud-prevention, or security reasons.
You can permanently delete your account and associated user data in the app or request deletion using our account deletion page. You can also remove locally stored app data by uninstalling the app.
Your choices
You can manage optional notifications and device permissions in the app or operating system settings. You may choose whether to post community content or participate in shared experiences. You may request access, correction, or deletion by contacting us.
Children and health information
Breathawear is not designed for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information. Breathawear supports wellness and breathing awareness; it is not a medical device and does not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent a medical condition.
