GDPR & Privacy Policy
Your data is yours. It lives on your device.
1. Local-First Architecture
NOUS is built on a "Local-First" architecture. This means your check-ins, capacity scores, and journal entries are stored directly in your browser's database (IndexedDB). We do not have access to this data — there are no accounts and no server-side storage.
2. Data Processing
We process your data locally on your device to generate insights (Capacity Score, Trends). No algorithms run on remote servers for your personal data — because none ever reaches one.
3. Backups Stay With You
If you export an encrypted backup file, it is saved directly by your browser and stays in your possession. The file is encrypted with your passphrase; we cannot read it, and it is never transmitted to us.
4. Your Rights
Under GDPR, you have the right to access, rectify, and erase your data. Since your data is on your device, you already possess it. You can clear your data at any time by clearing your browser's site data or using the "Reset App" feature in Settings.
