Privacy Policy

Last updated 29 September 2026

Spiryl is built so your data stays yours. There's no account, no advertising and no analytics, and we don't collect, sell or share personal information. The app doesn't send what you write to us or to anyone else.

What stays on your device

Everything you add to Spiryl is stored only on your iPhone: check-ins, moments, challenges and their steps, reframes, journal entries, patterns, parts of your life, therapy sessions and homework. It's saved with iOS data protection, so it's encrypted while your iPhone is locked. We never receive a copy, and Spiryl doesn't sync to iCloud.

Apple Health

If you connect Apple Health, Spiryl reads your sleep, exercise minutes and steps to show how they relate to your anxiety. It only reads, never writes, and that data stays on your iPhone. You can change access any time in the Health app. Health data is never used for advertising or shared with anyone.

Apple Intelligence

On iPhones that support Apple Intelligence, Spiryl can suggest balanced thoughts, steps for a challenge and a weekly reflection. These use Apple's on-device model, so what you've written is processed on your iPhone and isn't sent to us or to Apple.

Face ID

If you lock Spiryl with Face ID, iOS checks your face and only tells the app whether it matched. Spiryl never has access to your face data.

Reminders

If you turn on the evening reminder, it's scheduled on your device with Apple's notification system. Nothing is sent to a server.

Sharing a summary

When you export a therapy summary as a PDF, the app creates the file on your device and you decide where it goes. We never see it.

Links

"Find a helpline near you" opens Find A Helpline in your browser. That site has its own privacy policy.

Deleting your data

Go to Settings and choose "Erase everything and start over", or delete the app. Either way, your data is gone from your iPhone, and since we never had a copy, there's nothing left anywhere else.

This website

This website doesn't use cookies or ads. It counts visits with Darkside, our own analytics tool, which runs on our own hosting and doesn't share anything with anyone. It records the page you visited, the site that linked you here, your type of device, browser and operating system, and a country worked out from your time zone. It doesn't store your IP address and can't recognise you from one day to the next. Like most websites, our hosting provider also keeps standard server logs, including IP addresses and pages visited, to keep the site running and secure.

Children

Spiryl doesn't collect personal information from anyone, including children.

Changes

If this policy changes, for example if iCloud sync is added, we'll update this page and the date above.
