Privacy Policy
- The app has no account. Your standards, entries, goal and notes stay on your phone. We cannot see them.
- No ads, no analytics, no tracking, in the app or on this website.
- If you buy Pro in the app, Apple handles the payment and RevenueCat confirms it, using an anonymous ID.
- If you buy the ebook, Paddle handles the payment as our reseller. We receive your name, email and order details so we can deliver the book and help you.
Who we are
Men's OS (the app, the website at mensos.app and the ebook Heavy on Purpose) is operated by Men's OS, based in Bosnia and Herzegovina ("we", "us"). We are responsible for the processing described here. You can reach us at support@mensos.app.
The app: data stored on your phone
Everything you enter in the app stays in the app's storage on your device:
- the standards you create, their schedules, targets and reasons;
- your daily entries, including partial effort and items moved to tomorrow;
- your goal, settings and reminder times.
This data is not sent to us or to anyone else. We have no server that receives it. If you delete the app, this data is deleted with it, unless you kept a backup.
Backups
When you export a backup, the app creates a file and opens your phone's share sheet. You choose where the file goes, for example Files, iCloud Drive or an email to yourself. That destination's own privacy terms apply. We never receive the file.
Reminders
Reminders are scheduled locally on your phone. No push server is involved, and no information about them leaves your device.
In-app purchases
Men's OS Pro is sold through the Apple App Store. Apple processes the payment. We never receive your card details, name or Apple ID.
To confirm that you own Pro and to restore it on a new phone, the app uses RevenueCat (RevenueCat, Inc., USA), a service that validates App Store purchases. When the app checks your purchase status, RevenueCat receives:
- a random, anonymous ID created by the app (not linked to your name or email);
- your App Store purchase and subscription records for this app;
- basic technical data such as the app version, device model, operating system version and store country, and your IP address as part of the connection.
RevenueCat does not receive your standards, entries, goal or any other content from the app. We can see anonymous purchase records in RevenueCat, for example that a subscription was started or renewed, but we cannot tell who you are from them.
Ratings
The app may occasionally ask whether you would like to rate it, using Apple's built-in rating prompt. Apple controls this prompt and any rating you give.
Buying the ebook
The ebook is sold through Paddle (Paddle.com Market Limited, UK). Paddle is the merchant of record: it is the seller on your receipt, it processes the payment, handles sales tax and VAT, and delivers the download link. Paddle's own privacy policy applies to what you enter at checkout.
At checkout Paddle collects your email address, country and postcode, payment details, and technical data used to prevent fraud. We never see your full card details. Paddle shares with us:
- your name (if given), email address and country;
- what you bought, when, the price paid and the order ID;
- refund and chargeback status for that order.
To deliver the book, we email you a download link that works for 7 days. These emails are sent through Brevo (Sendinblue SAS, France), which receives your email address, your name if you gave one, and the content of that one email. If you tick the box at checkout agreeing to hear from us, Brevo also stores your email address and first name on our mailing list, and we may send you occasional emails about Men's OS. If you don't tick it, you only get the delivery email. Every marketing email has an unsubscribe link, and you can also ask us at support@mensos.app to remove you. Order records (order ID, email, date) are stored with our host, Cloudflare, so we can resend a link if you need it.
We use this only to deliver the book, answer your questions, handle refunds and keep the sales records the law requires (legal bases: performance of a contract and legal obligation). We do not add you to a mailing list.
The Paddle checkout code is loaded only on our checkout page (mensos.app/book/checkout/), which you reach by clicking Buy. No other page of this site makes any request to Paddle. Once loaded, Paddle may set cookies needed for the checkout and fraud prevention.
This website
mensos.app is a static website. It sets no cookies of its own, loads no third-party fonts or analytics, and contains no tracking pixels. The one exception is the Paddle checkout described above, and only after you click Buy.
The site is hosted by Cloudflare (Cloudflare, Inc., USA). Like any host, Cloudflare processes your IP address and basic request data to deliver the pages and protect the site from abuse, and may keep short-lived logs for that purpose.
Emails to us
If you contact us, we receive your email address and whatever you write. We use it only to answer you and delete it when it is no longer needed for that purpose.
What we do not do
- We do not use analytics, crash reporting or advertising tools.
- We do not track you across other apps or websites.
- We do not sell or share personal data for marketing.
International transfers
RevenueCat and Cloudflare process data in the United States, Brevo in the EU, and Paddle in the UK and other countries where it operates. Transfers rely on safeguards such as the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses or adequacy decisions.
How long data is kept
- Data on your phone: until you delete it in the app or delete the app.
- Purchase records (RevenueCat and Paddle): as long as needed to provide what you bought and to meet accounting and tax obligations.
- Support emails: until your question is resolved, and then only as long as needed.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, including the EU and UK under the GDPR and US states such as California, you have the right to know what personal data we hold about you, to access, correct or delete it, to object to or restrict its processing, and to data portability. We do not sell personal data. Because your app content never leaves your phone, you control it directly: export it with a backup, or delete it by removing the app. For anything else, including purchase records, write to support@mensos.app. You can also complain to your local data protection authority.
Children
The app, the website and the ebook are not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from them.
Changes
If this policy changes, we will update this page and the date at the top. If a change affects how your data is handled in a meaningful way, we will also mention it in the app's update notes.
