Wellbeing / Private-test privacy overview
Your choices.
A clear explanation.
You shouldn’t have to guess what “save” or “Incognito” means. Here’s how the private test is designed to handle your information.
Updated September 23, 2026. This overview covers our company website and the current Wellbeing private test. Wellbeing remains invitation-only for adults 18+.
The short version
- Saving is a choice. You review a reflection before choosing to save it on your device.
- AI needs to process your words. Live messages and relevant conversation context pass through the app’s server and AI provider.
- Incognito is about saving, not invisibility. It prevents new conversation wrap-ups from being saved; it doesn’t stop that processing.
- Saved reflections aren’t cloud backups. They stay in the browser or installed web app where you saved them.
When you talk with the guide
Wellbeing’s live AI guidance uses OpenAI through our app server on Render. What you send, together with relevant context from the active conversation, is processed to produce a reply and run safety checks.
The app keeps the active conversation and drafts in screen memory rather than creating a saved chat-transcript history. That is different from saying your words never leave your device.
Provider processing may involve retention under the provider’s applicable policies. We do not promise anonymity, zero retention, or that Incognito makes information unavailable to the service providers.
When you keep a reflection
Saved mode is the default, but nothing is saved as a reflection until you review it and choose “Save to this device.” You can edit the summary and optional next step before saving.
A saved reflection contains the approved summary, any chosen next step, an explicitly selected session mood if provided, guidance mode, date, and a record identifier. If you later choose a step check-in, that answer is added to the reflection.
The app keeps up to 25 recent reflections on the current device. It does not save the full conversation as a reflection or automatically sync reflections to another phone or computer. Clearing browser data or losing access to that device can remove them. Browser storage is not a separately encrypted private vault.
You can delete what you saved
- For one reflection: open Reflections, select it, choose Delete this reflection, and confirm.
- For all reflections: open You → Your saved reflections → Delete all saved reflections, and confirm.
Deleted reflections cannot be restored through the app. Deleting device reflections does not delete feedback, concern reports, or other operational records already submitted.
When you return to something useful
“This week’s takeaways” is created on your device from reflections and next steps you already approved, after you review the explanation. It is not sent to AI or saved as a new profile.
If you explicitly continue a saved step with focused AI help, that chosen step and your check-in answer are sent to start the new conversation. The earlier reflection summary and transcript are not included in that handoff.
What Incognito changes
Choose You → Session privacy → Incognito to stop new conversation wrap-ups from being saved. A deliberate Incognito preference stays selected until you change it.
Incognito does not delete older saved reflections, stop live server or AI processing, or clear separate reset preferences. In a focused follow-up, you may explicitly choose to review and save that one conversation without changing your usual Incognito preference.
Reset preferences are separate
“A moment to reset” can remember choices you explicitly make: duration and context preferences, favorites, “not for me” selections, completed technique identifiers, and recently shown techniques. These are device-local settings in both Saved and Incognito modes.
Reset personalization does not analyze your chats, moods, or reflections and does not call AI to select or rewrite techniques. To clear it, open You → Reset preferences → Clear reset personalization and confirm. This does not delete reflections.
Feedback and service information
Optional helpfulness feedback and concern reports use predefined ratings or categories. They include limited operational information such as a response reference, guidance mode, app version, and receipt information—not your conversation text, AI response text, or saved reflections.
The service also uses technical information about requests, such as error categories and timing, to help investigate reliability. These records are separate from your saved reflections.
Private-test access uses an invitation code and a short-lived session cookie. It is an access control, not a guarantee of anonymity.
Before a wider app release
The private test’s operational retention and cleanup schedule is still being finalized. Contact us with questions about feedback or service records. A wider app release will need an updated policy describing the finalized practices.
This company website is separate
This company website has no analytics, advertising, sign-up forms, third-party fonts, or embedded chat. It does not read your Wellbeing reflections or connect to the app’s private data.
Following “Open Wellbeing” takes you to the separate private-test app, where its processing and access controls apply. Render hosts this website and processes basic connection information to deliver and protect it. See Render’s privacy policy for its handling of service data.
