Privacy

Tide is built for people with ADHD. Using it says something about your health, and what you write in it (goals, the reasons behind them, what you got done) is personal. This page says what we collect, where it goes and how to take it back.

What we collect

• Account: your email, a display name if you give one, and your time zone.
• What you write: tasks, tiny steps, anchors and their why, identity statements, mantras, routines, wins and focus sessions.
• WhatsApp (optional): your phone number, the messages we send you and the replies you send back.
• Google Calendar (optional): a read-only token and, each morning, the titles and times of that day’s events. We never write to your calendar.
• Technical: ordinary server logs (IP address, browser, timestamps), kept briefly for security and debugging. No advertising trackers and no analytics that follow you across sites.

Why we use it

Only to run Tide for you: to show your plan, send the messages you asked for and draft tiny steps when you tap “Break it down”. We don’t sell data, we don’t show ads and we don’t use what you write to train AI models.

Because Tide is designed around ADHD, using it may reveal information about your health. We process that information on the basis of your explicit consent, which you give when you create an account and can withdraw at any time by deleting it.

Who else sees it

These providers handle data on our behalf, and only as far as needed:

• Supabase: database and sign-in. Stored in the EU (Ireland).
• Vercel: hosting. Servers may run outside the EU.
• Anthropic: AI features. Receives the task title or goal you ask it to work on, and only when you use an AI feature. Anthropic does not train on this data.
• Twilio and Meta (WhatsApp): your phone number and message contents, only if you connect WhatsApp.
• Google: if you sign in with Google, your name and email address from your Google account; if you connect your calendar, read access to it.
• Expo (push notifications): a device token and the text of each notification, only if you choose phone notifications in the Tide app. Expo passes them to Apple (iPhone) or Google Firebase (Android) for delivery.

Where a provider is outside the EU, transfers rely on the EU Standard Contractual Clauses or the EU–US Data Privacy Framework.

How long we keep it

For as long as you have an account. When you delete your account, everything is removed at once. There is no archive. Server logs are kept for up to 30 days.

Your rights

• Export: Settings → Your data → Download a copy. You get a JSON file with everything.
• Delete: Settings → Your data → Delete my account. Immediate and permanent.
• Stop messages: reply STOP to any WhatsApp message, or pause them in Settings.
• Correct or ask: email hello@gettide.dev. If you are in the EU you can also complain to your local data-protection authority.

Not a medical service

Tide is a support tool, not a treatment or a crisis service. It works best alongside care from people who know you, not instead of it. If you are in crisis, contact your local emergency services.

Changes

If this page changes in a way that matters, we will tell you in the app before the change takes effect.
