Privacy Policy
At Orbit Tech Lab, your personal privacy is our core design philosophy. This Privacy Policy explains our commitment to transparency regarding the HabitBloom mobile application (“the App”). We believe that your daily routines, personal goals, and mental well-being should remain strictly confidential.
1. Summary & Core Principle
HabitBloom operates as a 100% offline-first application. We do not run tracking servers, user account databases, or remote profiling engines. All habit data, completions, notes, and profile settings exist solely on your local device.
2. Data We Do Not Collect
- We do not require user registration, passwords, or phone numbers.
- We do not track your precise or background physical location.
- We do not collect advertising identifiers, Android Ad IDs, or device fingerprints.
- We do not transmit your habit schedules or streak records to any remote server or third party.
- We do not sell, lease, or monetize your data under any circumstance.
3. Data Processed Locally on Your Device
The following data types are stored locally within the protected application sandbox on your device:
- Habit Information: Habit titles, icons, colors, scheduled days, reminder times, and archival status.
- Progress & Completion Logs: Daily completion timestamps used to compute current streaks, best streaks, and monthly statistics.
- Optional Profile Details: If you choose to personalize your profile, you may optionally input a display name and email address, and select a profile photo. This photo is copied locally into the app's document directory and never leaves your phone.
- User Preferences: Dark/light mode theme selection and notification toggles.
4. Device Permissions & Why They Are Requested
HabitBloom requests only the minimal permissions necessary to deliver its core functionality:
- POST_NOTIFICATIONS: Requested to deliver local reminders for your active habits at the exact times you choose. You can disable this permission at any time in system settings without impacting habit tracking.
- SCHEDULE_EXACT_ALARM: Used to schedule reminder alarms at the precise minute chosen by the user, ensuring notifications trigger reliably on modern Android versions.
- Photo Library Access: Invoked only when you explicitly tap to select an avatar photo for your profile. HabitBloom uses the system photo picker so the app only accesses the specific file you pick.
- VIBRATE: Used to deliver tactile feedback during habit completions and reminder alerts.
5. Third-Party Services & SDKs
HabitBloom does not integrate third-party advertising SDKs (e.g. AdMob, Unity, AppLovin) or behavioral analytics SDKs (e.g. Firebase Analytics, Mixpanel, Adjust). The application operates self-sufficiently without external network dependencies.
6. Data Retention & Security
Because all data is stored on-device, your data remains in your custody for as long as HabitBloom is installed on your device, or until you choose to delete it. Data is safeguarded by Android's application sandboxing architecture, preventing other applications from accessing HabitBloom's private files.
7. Data Deletion Policy (#deletion)
You have complete, unconditional control over your data. Because Orbit Tech Lab does not retain any of your habit or profile records on external servers, you do not need to wait for a support representative to delete your records. You can delete all your data instantly:
Method 1: Instant In-App Data Deletion (Recommended)
HabitBloom includes a dedicated, one-tap data wipe mechanism inside the app:
- Open the HabitBloom application.
- Navigate to the Settings screen (Profile tab).
- Scroll down to the Danger Zone section.
- Tap Delete / Reset All Data.
- Confirm the prompt. All stored habits, streaks, completion history, scheduled alarms, and local profile details will be permanently and irreversibly purged from device memory immediately.
Method 2: System-Level Deletion
You can also remove all data through Android system settings:
- Open your Android device's Settings.
- Select Apps > HabitBloom.
- Tap Storage & Cache > Clear Storage / Clear Data.
- Alternatively, uninstalling the HabitBloom application automatically removes all sandboxed data from your device.
Method 3: Deletion Inquiries & Verification
If you have questions regarding data deletion or wish to confirm that no cloud records exist under your name, contact our privacy team anytime at support@orbittechlab.com. You can also review our standalone Data Deletion Guide. We will respond within 48 business hours.
8. Children's Privacy
HabitBloom does not knowingly collect any personal information from children under the age of 13. The application is designed for general audiences seeking positive personal productivity and mindfulness routines.
9. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected with a revised “Last Updated” date on this page and published at https://habitbloom.orbittechlab.com/privacy.html.
