Privacy Policy

1. About 3 Words Now

3 Words Now provides this app and is responsible for handling personal information as described in this Privacy Policy. This policy explains how information is collected, used and protected when you use the 3 Words Now app.

2. What information we collect

We collect only what the app genuinely needs to function:

• Your email address, once you choose to save your history and enable reports
• A unique account identifier created when you use the app, including before you provide an email
• The three words you enter, and any words the app generates for you, together with the interpretation or content produced from them
• Basic product usage events (for example, that an entry was created, or that a subscription screen was viewed) — these events record what happened, not the content of what you wrote
• Your subscription status and purchase history, as confirmed through Apple's App Store

We do not collect any of the following:

• Payment card or bank details — Apple processes all payments; we never see or store this information
• Phone number, physical address, or contacts
• Photos, videos, or audio
• Browsing history outside this app
• A separate advertising or device identifier — we do not show ads and do not use advertising SDKs
• Health records
• Diagnostic or crash data — no crash-reporting service is currently integrated into the app. If this changes in a future version, this policy will be updated first

3. Why we collect this information

• To provide the core function of the app — interpreting your three words or generating new ones
• To save your history so you can look back on past entries
• To generate and send Your Weekly Report and Your Monthly Report, where you've asked to receive them
• To recognise your account across sessions and, where supported, across devices
• To apply your free-use allowance and, once purchased, your subscription correctly
• To understand basic usage patterns and improve the app

4. How your entered content is processed

When you use "My Three Words," your words are sent to our AI provider to generate an interpretation and, where relevant, a practical next step. When you use "Give Me Three Words," the same provider generates words and a framing sentence for you. We do not use your entries to train AI models.

If an entry contains language suggesting a risk of self-harm, a medical emergency, or harm to a child, it is detected before any AI processing happens and is never sent to the AI provider at all. It is stored with additional access restrictions and is never used for analytics, product improvement, or marketing.

5. Third-party service providers

We use the following providers to operate the app. Each processes only what's needed for its specific role:

• Supabase — authentication, database storage, and backend services. Your account, history, and entitlement records are stored here.
• Our AI provider — processes the words you enter (or request) to generate interpretations and content, as described above.
• Apple (App Store / StoreKit) — processes all purchases and manages subscriptions. Apple, not us, handles your payment details.
• Resend — delivers Your Weekly Report and Your Monthly Report by email, only to accounts that have both provided an email address and enabled that specific report email in Settings.
• Vercel — hosts the app and its backend services.

We do not sell your personal data to anyone, for any purpose.

6. Data retention

We keep your account and history for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, your personal data is permanently removed, as described in Section 8.

7. Data security

Your data is encrypted in transit and at rest. Access to personal data is restricted to what each part of the system genuinely needs — for example, only server-side processes can verify a purchase or send a report email; the app itself never handles your payment details.

8. Your rights

You can export your data at any time from Settings. You can delete your account and all associated personal data from within the app; this permanently removes your history, account identifier, and email address. If you believe any information we hold about you is incorrect, contact us using the details in Section 12.

9. Children's privacy

3 Words Now is not directed at children and is not intended for use by anyone under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, contact us and we will remove it.

10. International processing

Our service providers may process and store data in countries other than your own, including the United States and the United Kingdom/European Union. Where this happens, we rely on the safeguards those providers offer for international transfers.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as the app changes. Material changes will be reflected here with an updated date, and where appropriate, we'll let you know in the app.
