Privacy Policy
Effective date: June 16, 2026
Boxy ("the app," "we," "us," or "the Boxy team") is a mental wellness companion app. We built Boxy to be a calm, private space — and we treat your privacy with the same care. This policy explains what information the app handles, how it's stored, and the choices you have.
The short version
- Your journal entries, moods, worries, letters, and streaks are stored locally on your device. We do not run a server that collects or stores the content of your reflections.
- We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use the content of your entries for advertising.
- Subscriptions and payments are handled entirely by Apple. We never see your payment details.
Information stored on your device
When you use Boxy, the following information is created and saved in the app's local storage on your iPhone:
- Mood check-ins and the dates you logged them
- Written entries from workouts such as Gratitude Garden, Worry Stones, Kind Letter, The Slow Path, and Evening Wind-Down
- Exercise completion records, streak counts, and unlocked habitat decorations
- Your onboarding selections (such as your focus areas)
This information stays on your device. If you delete the app, this locally stored information is deleted with it and cannot be recovered by us. The app does not currently sync your data to a cloud service or across devices.
Subscriptions and purchases
Boxy offers an auto-renewing subscription with a free trial, processed by Apple through your App Store account. Apple handles all payment information under its own privacy policy — we never receive or store your payment details.
To manage subscriptions and confirm your access, we use RevenueCat, Inc., a subscription-management service. RevenueCat processes a record of your purchase (your purchase history) on our behalf to validate your subscription, prevent fraud, and provide us with aggregate analytics about subscriptions. Boxy uses RevenueCat's anonymous identifiers, so this purchase information is not linked to your name or contact information, and it is not used to track you across other companies' apps or websites for advertising. You can review RevenueCat's privacy practices at https://www.revenuecat.com/privacy/.
Analytics and diagnostics
Boxy does not use third-party analytics SDKs, and we do not track your activity across other apps or websites. We may receive anonymous, aggregated crash and usage reports through Apple if you have opted in to sharing diagnostics with developers in your iOS settings; this is controlled by Apple and your device settings, and it does not include the content of your entries.
What we never do
- We do not sell or rent your personal information.
- We do not use the content of your moods, journals, or reflections for advertising or marketing.
- We do not share your entries with third parties. They remain on your device.
Your wellbeing data deserves extra care
Boxy is a self-guided wellness app, not a medical service, and the information you enter is not a medical record. Even so, we recognize that reflections about your mood and worries are sensitive, which is why Boxy is designed to keep them on your device rather than on our servers.
Children's privacy
Boxy is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your region), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the app, please contact us at privacy@boxy.health and we will address it.
Your choices and rights
- Access and deletion: Because your entries live on your device, you can view them in the app's Journal at any time. You can permanently erase all of your data — moods, journal entries, streaks, and unlocked decorations — at once using the "Reset Boxy" option in the app's Settings, which restores the app to a fresh state. Deleting the app also removes all locally stored data.
- Subscription management: You can manage or cancel your subscription anytime in your App Store account settings.
- Regional rights: Depending on where you live (for example, the EU/UK under GDPR or California under the CCPA), you may have additional rights regarding personal information. To exercise any applicable right, contact us at privacy@boxy.health.
Changes to this policy
If we make material changes — for example, if a future version of Boxy adds cloud backup — we will update this page, revise the effective date above, and note the change in the app.
