Effective September 25, 2026
Sanva is a morning and night practice app that can use Apple's Screen Time features to hold selected apps until you complete your practice.
Your routines, practice history, journal, vision, affirmations and settings are stored on your iPhone. Your Screen Time selection is stored as opaque tokens provided by Apple. Sanva does not receive the names of the apps or categories you select.
Deleting Sanva removes the app data stored on that iPhone. Apple may retain Health and purchase records under your Apple account and its own policies.
When an AI feature runs, Sanva sends the text needed to answer the request through Firebase Cloud Functions to Anthropic. Depending on the feature, this can include your name, question, vision, recent journal entries, affirmations, written visualization or feedback on a draft. Journal read-backs and daily guidance may include recent journal entries automatically so the response can refer to patterns over time.
Each paid AI request also includes an install identifier and a signed App Store transaction. These are used to confirm subscription access and limit misuse. Sanva may retain the install identifier and subscription status for those purposes.
Sanva does not use your writing to train its own model, sell advertising or build an advertising profile.
Sanva uses Firebase Analytics to understand onboarding and product use. It records app opens, onboarding screens, permission outcomes, the count of items selected for blocking, paywall views, purchases, routine starts and completions, completed module identifiers, practice durations, shield button counts and pass usage. Firebase also collects standard app, device, approximate location and diagnostic information needed to provide analytics.
Beginning with version 1.0.4, App Store and TestFlight builds also send crash reports through Firebase Crashlytics. A crash report contains the code that failed, the device model and iOS version, and recent analytics events. It does not contain what you wrote.
Analytics does not include what you write, which apps you select, app names, Screen Time tokens, check-in answers or pass reasons. Sanva does not use analytics to track you across other companies' apps or websites.
Analytics data is retained according to the retention settings configured for the Sanva Firebase project.
Sanva uses Apple's Family Controls and Managed Settings frameworks to apply the blocking choices you make. Apple keeps app and category identities private from Sanva.
If you allow Health access, Sanva writes mindful minutes to your Health store. Sanva does not upload Health data to its servers or analytics service.
Apple processes subscriptions and payment information. Sanva receives signed transaction information such as the product purchased, purchase status and expiration so it can provide paid features. Sanva does not receive your full payment card information.
Sanva uses Apple for purchases, Screen Time and Health features, Google Firebase for cloud functions and analytics, and Anthropic for AI responses. Those providers process data under their own terms and privacy policies.
Sanva does not sell your personal data, show third-party ads or track you across other companies' apps and websites.
You can decline Screen Time, notification and Health permissions in iOS Settings. Features that depend on a declined permission will not work.

This policy may be updated when the app's features or data practices change. The effective date above will be updated when that happens.
