Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 2026

Walkaway: Quit Gambling ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and safeguard information in connection with your use of the App and related services (the "Services"). By using the Services, you consent to the practices described below.

1. Information We Collect

a. Information You Provide Directly
Recovery preferences and goals you set within the App
Check-in responses, journal entries, and other content you input
Communications and support requests you send to us
Payment information — handled entirely by Apple. We do not store payment data.

b. Information Collected Automatically
Device and system data — device type, operating system, app version, and performance logs
Usage data — feature interactions, session times, crash reports, and diagnostic events

2. Your Data Stays on Your Device

Walkaway is built privacy-first. Your recovery data — including check-ins, streak history, journal entries, moods, and urge logs — is stored locally on your device. We do not upload, sync, or transmit your personal recovery data to any server. No account or login is required.

3. How We Use Information

We process information to provide, maintain, and improve the Services; process payments and manage subscriptions; communicate with you regarding updates and support; detect, prevent, and respond to misuse, fraud, or security incidents; comply with legal obligations; and generate aggregated or de-identified data for analytics and product improvement.

4. Anonymized Analytics and Security Logs

Anonymized Analytics — data stripped of personal identifiers used to analyze trends and improve the App. These datasets cannot identify you.
Security and Audit Logs — limited identifiable logs retained for detecting abuse and complying with legal requirements. Retained for 90 days by default unless required longer for an active investigation.

5. How We Share Information

We do not sell or rent your personal information. We may disclose information only:
To Service Providers — vendors who process data solely to provide hosting, analytics, or payment services
For Legal and Safety Reasons — when required by law, subpoena, or court order
In Business Transactions — in the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets
With Your Consent — when you direct us to share information

6. Data Retention

We retain information only as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described above or as required by law. When data is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymize it.

7. Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access and receive a copy of personal data we hold about you, request correction or deletion of your personal data, limit or object to certain processing activities, and confirm that we do not sell or share your personal information. To exercise these rights, contact us at [email protected].

8. Security

We use technical, administrative, and physical safeguards including encryption and access controls to protect your information. However, no system is completely secure and you use the Services at your own risk.

9. Children's Privacy

The Services are not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 13. Contact us at [email protected] if you believe a child under 13 has provided us information.

10. International Data Transfers

We operate in the United States. If you access the Services from outside the U.S., you consent to the transfer and processing of your information in the U.S. We implement appropriate safeguards for international transfers where required.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make material updates, we will revise the Last Updated date above and post the updated version within the App. Continued use constitutes acceptance of the revised Policy.
