By using Zeno, you agree to the data practices described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the application.
2. Information We Collect
We collect the minimum amount of information necessary to provide a functioning experience. We do not sell your data to third parties.
2.1 Information You Provide
Zeno does not require you to create an account or provide personal identifying information such as your name, email address, or phone number.

We automatically collect anonymized usage information, including:

This data is stored locally on your device and used to power the Trends screen. It is not transmitted to our servers in a form that identifies you personally.

If you subscribe to Zeno Premium, your purchase is processed entirely through Apple's App Store. We use RevenueCat, a third-party subscription management platform, to verify your subscription status, restore previous purchases, and manage entitlements.

We do not use your information to serve advertisements, build advertising profiles, or share data with marketing companies.
4. Data Storage & Security
The majority of your data — including session history, exercise usage, and app preferences — is stored locally on your device. This data does not leave your device unless required for subscription verification.
We implement industry-standard technical and organizational measures to protect your information. Your subscription receipt data is transmitted using HTTPS encryption and handled by RevenueCat's secure infrastructure.

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information. We may share limited data only in these circumstances:

- Legal Requirements: We may disclose information if required by law, court order, or governmental authority.
6. Children's Privacy
Zeno is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at [email protected] and we will take prompt steps to delete such information.
7. Your Rights & Choices
