We built Mudo to give you a safe, private space to reflect. Protecting your data is core to that promise.

Last updated: November 9, 2025

Introduction

Welcome to mudoapp.com ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your personal information and your right to privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use our website at mudoapp.com, the mudo mobile application ("App"), and related services.

Consent

When you provide us with personal information to complete a transaction, verify your credit card, place an order, subscribe, or for any other reason, you consent to our collection and use of that information for the specific purpose for which it was provided. If we ask for your information for a secondary reason (for example, marketing), we will either ask you directly for your expressed consent or give you an opportunity to opt out.

If after you opt-in, you change your mind, you may withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us at hi@mudoapp.com or by mailing us at the address listed below.

How We Use Your Information

We use your information to:

Data Storage and Security

Your mood data is stored locally on your device by default. If you enable cloud backup, your data is encrypted end-to-end before being transmitted and stored on secure servers. We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your information.

We use encryption in transit and at rest, secure authentication protocols, and regular security audits to ensure your data remains private and secure.

Data Retention

We retain your information for as long as necessary to provide our services and fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. Mood data and associated notes are retained indefinitely until you choose to delete them or request deletion. Account information and communication data are retained while your account is active and for a reasonable period thereafter for legal, regulatory, and legitimate business purposes.

Third-Party Services

We may use third-party service providers to assist in operating our services, such as:

  • Cloud Storage Providers: For secure encrypted backup of your mood data
  • Analytics Services: To understand app usage and improve our services (data is anonymized)
  • Email Service Providers: For sending newsletters and communications (with your consent)
  • Customer Support Tools: To respond to your inquiries and provide assistance

These third parties are contractually obligated to maintain the confidentiality and security of your information and are prohibited from using it for any purpose other than providing services to us. We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for their own marketing purposes.

Cookies

We use cookies to maintain the session of your user and to improve site usability. Cookies are not used to personally identify you on other websites. You can control cookie preferences through your browser settings; however, disabling cookies may limit certain functionality of the site.

What We Collect:

  • Anonymous app usage statistics (feature usage, screen views)
  • Insight feedback data (e.g., thumbs up/down on generated insights)
  • App performance metrics and crash reports
  • Device information (device type, OS version) — anonymized

What We Don't Collect:

  • Personal mood entries or journal content
  • Names, email addresses, or personal identifiers (via analytics)

  • Health or medical information (as defined by local regulations)

Data Retention: Analytics data is retained for up to 26 months as per Firebase's data retention policies.

Opting Out: You can disable analytics collection at any time in the app by going to Settings > Data & Privacy > Privacy Settings > Analytics & Usage Data.

Children's Privacy

Our services are not intended for children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child under 13, we will take steps to delete such information promptly. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately so we can remove the information.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. When we make material changes, we will notify you by updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, provide additional notice (such as via email or through our app). We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how we protect your information.
