Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 28, 2026

I AM Becoming ("the App") is a personal growth and daily challenge app built by Christopher Li. Your privacy is important. This policy explains what data the App collects, how it is used, and your rights.

1. Data Stored on Your Device

The App stores its data locally on your device. We do not operate servers, create user accounts, or receive personal information from the App.

• Journey & journal data — your journey start date, teaching progress, personal intentions, journal entries, favorites, achievements, and photos you attach.
• Photos — only accessed when you choose to attach a photo to a journal entry or save a photo to your photo library. Photos are never uploaded or shared by us.
• Trial-start timestamp — the date of your first launch is stored in the device Keychain so deleting and reinstalling the App does not restart the free trial. This timestamp contains no journal, photo, contact, or account information.

Apple may include local App data in an iCloud or encrypted computer backup according to your device and backup settings. These backups are managed by Apple; we cannot access them.

2. Camera & Photo Library Access

• Camera — used only when you tap to take a photo for a journal entry. The App will request permission before accessing your camera.
• Photo Library — Apple's system photo picker lets you choose a photo to attach, and the App receives only the item you select. The App requests permission to add a photo only when you explicitly choose to save it to your photo library.

You can revoke these permissions at any time in your iPhone's Settings app.

3. Data Sharing

We do not sell, share, or transmit your data to any third party. The App contains no advertising, no analytics SDKs, and no third-party tracking of any kind.

4. Data Retention & Deletion

Deleting the App removes its locally stored journey progress, intentions, journal entries, favorites, achievements, preferences, and journal-photo copies. Photos you explicitly saved to your photo library remain there until you delete them. The single trial-start timestamp described above may remain in the device Keychain solely to prevent repeated free trials; it contains no journal content or personal profile.

5. Children's Privacy

The App does not knowingly collect personal information from children. Because the App does not transmit personal information to us, we do not knowingly receive or share children's personal information.

6. Changes to This Policy

If we make material changes to this privacy policy, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.

7. Disclaimer

It is not a medical device and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any medical or psychological condition. The teachings and content in this app do not constitute professional medical, psychological, or therapeutic advice.
