Privacy Policy
CipherQ Tech LLP is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains how our Android and iOS applications collect, use, and protect your information.

1. Scope and Agreement
This Privacy Policy applies to the Nini mobile application for Android and iOS (collectively, "App"), provided by CipherQ Tech LLP ("we," "us," or "our").
By downloading or using our App, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
Nini provides general wellness and relaxation information. It is not a medical device and does not provide medical diagnosis, treatment, or clinical advice.
2. Information We Collect
Our App does not require you to create an account or log in. We do not collect personal information such as your name, phone number, or email address through the App.
A. Information Kept on Your Device
The following data is entered or stored locally on your device:
- Optional first name and onboarding responses
- Sleep schedules, sleep questionnaires, and chronotype quiz results
- Mood entries and wellness journals
- Bedtime routines, alarms, and notification preferences
- Favorites, sound-mixer presets, and playback history
- Imported or downloaded audio files
B. Automatically Collected Information
Certain technical information may be collected automatically by our third-party service providers:
- Device model and manufacturer
- Operating system version and App version
- Device language, country, or region
- IP address
- Advertising ID (where available)
- App usage statistics, session events, and first-open data
- Crash reports, performance metrics, and transport diagnostics
3. How We Use Information
The information collected is used to:
- Improve app performance, reliability, and user experience
- Monitor crashes, diagnose application state, and fix bugs
- Analyze general app usage and feature popularity
- Maintain security and operational stability
- Display advertisements (where applicable)
- Deliver remote configurations (e.g., UI layout, featured sound themes)
4. Analytics and Crash Reporting
Our App uses Google Firebase Analytics to understand how users interact with the App and improve its features.
We also use Firebase Crashlytics to collect crash reports and diagnostic information to identify and fix application issues. Nini does not intentionally send your Apple Health records, journal text, or audio recordings to Firebase.
5. Advertising
Our App uses Google AdMob to display advertisements.
AdMob may collect device information, advertising identifiers, IP address, and other technical metadata required to provide personalized or non-personalized advertisements in accordance with applicable privacy laws.
You can learn more about Google's advertising practices by visiting the Google Advertising Policies ↗.
6. Third-Party Services
Our App utilizes the following third-party service providers that process data in accordance with their respective privacy policies:
- Google Firebase Analytics: Usage analytics and session tracking (Firebase Privacy Info ↗)
- Firebase Crashlytics: Crash diagnostic logging
- Google AdMob: In-app advertisement delivery
Review the comprehensive Google Privacy Policy ↗ for further details on how Google processes service data.
7. Apple HealthKit & Integrations (iOS)
If you grant permission, Nini reads Apple Health Sleep Analysis data (such as asleep duration and sleep stages like REM, Core, Deep, and Awake) to display a sleep summary in the app.
Apple Health data is strictly read-only. It is not:
- Sent to Firebase, Google AdMob, or external third-party servers
- Used for advertising, marketing, or cross-app tracking
- Sold or shared with data brokers
- Included in iCloud Drive preferences backups
8. Microphone and Sleep Recordings
The Sleep Recorder accesses your device microphone only after you explicitly tap Start Recording and grant permission.
Audio is written to a private local file on your device to detect ambient loudness levels. Audio recordings are never uploaded to our servers, never sent to Firebase, and remain on your device until deleted or uninstalled.
9. Optional iCloud Drive Backup
On iOS, optional preference backups may be saved to your private iCloud Drive container under your Apple ID. This includes appearance preferences, sound-mixer settings, and favorite presets. It excludes HealthKit records, sleep journals, and microphone audio files.
10. Data Retention, Sharing & Security
Data Sharing: We do not sell your personal information. Information collected through third-party SDKs is used solely for analytics, ad delivery, crash investigations, and core app operations.
| Data Category | Retention and Handling |
|---|---|
| Local Data & Recordings | Stored on device until deleted inside the app, data cleared, or App uninstalled. |
| HealthKit Data | Read dynamically via HealthKit APIs; permissions managed via iOS Settings. |
| Analytics & Diagnostics | Retained by Firebase in accordance with standard Google Analytics retention schedules. |
| Support Inquiries | Retained only as long as necessary to resolve your request and maintain support records. |
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect the information associated with our App. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure.
11. Your Privacy Choices
- Personalized Advertising: Opt out of targeted ads via your operating system settings (e.g., "Limit Ad Tracking" on iOS or "Opt out of Ads Personalization" on Android).
- Device Permissions: Manage or revoke Microphone, Apple Health, or Notification access via system Settings.
- Data Deletion: Clear the App's local storage or uninstall the App to remove local audio files and preferences.
- Direct Requests: Email us at support@getnini.app for privacy inquiries.
12. Children's Privacy
Our App is not intended for children under the age required by applicable law. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at support@getnini.app to have the data removed.
13. Changes and Contact Information
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
