Rosa Van Kuyk trading as Aligned App (“Aligned”, “we”, “us”, “our”) is committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, how we use and protect it, and your rights in relation to it.
We operate in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs). We also apply GDPR-equivalent standards as a baseline of best practice.
Under Australian law, the following is classified as sensitive information and subject to heightened protections:
We only collect sensitive information with your explicit, separate consent. You are never required to provide sensitive information to use Aligned, though doing so enables personalised features.
Directly from you: when you create an account, complete your profile, log cycle data, write journal entries, record your mood, or contact us.
Automatically: when you use the app, we collect technical data such as device type, operating system, session timestamps, and feature usage.
Through AI processing: when you use AI-powered features, your entries may be processed to generate personalised insights. See Section 5 for details on third-party providers.
We collect and use your information only for the purposes described below, in accordance with APP 3 and APP 6. We do not use your information for direct marketing without your separate, opt-in consent. We do not sell your data to third parties under any circumstances.
We share your information only with service providers required to operate Aligned. We do not share your data with advertisers, data brokers, or third parties for commercial purposes.
Anthropic is a United States-based company. When you use AI-powered features, relevant data is transmitted to and processed by Anthropic’s systems in the United States. By consenting to AI analysis during onboarding, you acknowledge and consent to this cross-border transfer. Anthropic does not use API-submitted data to train its models under current enterprise terms.
Our analytics and diagnostics providers, PostHog and Sentry, also process data on servers located in the United States. They receive only usage events and technical crash data, never your journal, cycle, or health content. They do not use this data for advertising or cross-app tracking.
Our email provider, Resend, processes data on servers located in the United States. If you join our launch waitlist or receive email from us, your name and email address are transmitted to and stored by Resend in the United States. They receive no journal, cycle, or health content.
We take reasonable steps to protect your information from misuse, interference, unauthorised access, modification, and disclosure (APP 11). Our security measures include encryption of data in transit (TLS) and at rest, access controls, authentication requirements, and regular security reviews.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Where changes are material, we will notify you via the app or by email before the changes take effect. Continued use of Aligned after notification constitutes acceptance of the updated Policy.
