Privacy Policy

Last updated: 9/5/2026

Brain Dump ("we", "our", or "us") respects your privacy. This policy explains what data we collect and how we use it when you use our app.

1. Information We Collect

When you create an account, we collect your email address and, if you sign in with a third-party provider (such as Google), the basic profile information they share with us. We also store the content you voluntarily add to the app: brain dumps, tasks, events, notes, study attempts, flashcards, reflections, and stress ratings.

2. Authentication

Authentication is handled by our backend provider using secure industry-standard protocols (OAuth 2.0 and JWT sessions). We never see or store your password. Session tokens are stored locally in your browser so you can stay signed in between visits.

3. Cookies & Local Storage

We use a small number of cookies and local storage keys:

  • Essential: Session tokens that keep you signed in.
  • Preferences: Your theme (light/dark), draft brain dumps, and onboarding progress.
  • Functional: Feature toggles like Zen Mode or Feynman Mode.

We do not use advertising cookies or third-party tracking pixels.

4. How We Use Your Data

  • To provide, maintain, and improve the app.
  • To securely sync your dumps across devices.
  • To generate insights, reflections, and reminders you request.

5. AI Processing

When you use AI features (organize, reflect, tutor, flashcards), the text you submit is sent to an AI provider strictly to generate the response. We do not use your content to train models.

6. Data Sharing

We do not sell your data. We only share data with the service providers required to operate the app (hosting, database, AI inference), and only to the extent necessary.

7. Your Rights

You can export, edit, or delete any dump at any time from within the app. To delete your entire account and associated data, contact support.
