Why Local Data Storage Matters for Mental Health Apps

Why Local Data Storage Matters for Mental Health Apps

What stays on your device

Check-ins, journal entries and attachments are stored locally. This does not mean that no data leaves the device: optional analytics and purchase services process the information described below.

Optional analytics and purchases

With analytics enabled, PostHog receives screen views and interaction events, including check-in counts, exercise categories and grouped changes in anxiety after exercises. Events use a pseudonymous identifier linked to the RevenueCat app-user ID; they are not fully anonymous. Product events are queued locally before consent and sent if you accept; declining clears the queue. You can disable analytics in Settings. Session replay is disabled. Journal text, photos and audio attachments are not included in these events.

RevenueCat processes app-user identifiers, purchase history and subscription status to manage purchases. Apple and Google also process transactions.

Backups and deletion

You can manage local records and exported copies yourself. Removing the app does not delete records already held by analytics or purchase providers. For questions about access or deletion, contact contacts@trifoiltrailblazer.com.
