Privacy Policy - Alive
Privacy Policy — Alive
Effective Date: September 18, 2026
This Privacy Policy applies to the Alive app for iOS devices (the "Application"), operated by CALMIA (the "Service Provider").
Alive is a simple check-in app. You tap a button to say "I'm alive." If you do not tap for a while, a notification email is sent to the people you have chosen. Alive is not an emergency service and does not call for help automatically.
1. Information We Collect
To provide the core functionality of Alive, we collect and process the following information.
1.1 Account Information
When you sign in with Apple, we receive a unique user identifier and, depending on your choices, your name and email address. This information is used solely to identify your account and to operate the Application.
1.2 Emergency Contact Information
You may register up to three emergency contacts. For each contact, we store the email address you provide and, optionally, a name. This information is used only to send notification emails as described in this policy.
1.3 Check-In Records
When you tap the "I'm alive." button, we record the date and time of that check-in. These records are used to calculate your next check-in deadline.
1.4 App Settings
We store your reminder time, rest mode status, selected language, and other preferences necessary for the Application to function.
1.5 We Do Not Collect
Alive does not collect or use:
・Location information
・Advertising identifiers
・Usage analytics
・Health information
・Any information beyond what is listed above
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information described above for the following purposes only:
・To operate your account and authenticate you
・To calculate and display your next check-in deadline
・To send reminder notifications to your device
・To send notification emails to your emergency contacts when your deadline passes
・To send confirmation emails to your emergency contacts when you register them
・To allow your emergency contacts to stop receiving emails if they choose
・To allow you to delete your account and all associated data
We do not use your information for advertising, marketing, profiling, or any purpose unrelated to the operation of Alive.
3. Data Storage and Security
Your account information, emergency contact details, and check-in records are stored on secure servers operated by our infrastructure provider (Cloudflare Workers and Cloudflare D1). Data is transmitted over encrypted connections (HTTPS/TLS).
App settings and notification schedules are also stored locally on your device using Apple's standard local storage technologies.
We do not sell, rent, trade, or share your personal information with third parties for their own purposes. We do not create user profiles. We do not use your information for marketing.
4. Third-Party Services
Alive uses the following third-party services strictly to operate the Application:
・Apple Sign In — for account authentication
・Cloudflare Workers and D1 — for backend processing and data storage
・Resend — for sending notification and confirmation emails
These providers process data only on our behalf and are contractually or technically restricted from using it for any other purpose.
Alive does not integrate third-party analytics, advertising, tracking, or profiling services.
5. Notifications
The Application requests permission to send local notifications if you enable reminders. Notifications are used solely to remind you to check in according to the time you configure.
Notification schedules are created locally on your device using Apple's notification system. We do not send notification content to external servers for this purpose.
You can disable notifications at any time through the Application's settings or your iPhone Settings. You can continue to use Alive even if you choose not to allow notifications.
6. Tracking and Advertising
Alive does not track you across apps or websites. The Application does not:
・Use App Tracking Transparency (ATT) for tracking
・Display advertisements
・Use advertising networks
・Share data with advertisers
・Create user profiles
・Use your information for marketing purposes
7. Data Retention and Deletion
We retain your account information, emergency contact details, and check-in records for as long as your account is active.
You can delete your account at any time from the Application's settings. When you delete your account, we delete your account information, emergency contact details, check-in records, and notification history from our servers.
Please note that:
・Emails already sent to your emergency contacts cannot be retrieved or deleted
・Your emergency contacts may have received and retained notification emails independently
・Device backups managed by Apple, such as iCloud backups, may retain app data according to Apple's own backup and retention policies
If you wish to request deletion of your data or have questions about retention, please contact us using the information in Section 10.
8. Children
Alive does not knowingly collect personal information from children. The Application is not directed to children under the age of 13 (or the applicable age in your jurisdiction). If you believe a child has provided personal information through the Application, please contact us so that we can take appropriate action.
9. International Data Transfers
Your information may be processed and stored on servers located outside your country of residence. By using Alive, you consent to the transfer of your information to these locations. We take reasonable steps to ensure that your information receives an adequate level of protection in the jurisdictions where it is processed.
10. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically.
Your continued use of Alive after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
