1. Information used by the app
To provide personalized hydration tracking, SipPal Water may use information you choose to enter and information created as you use the app, including:
- Profile information: age, gender selection, weight, preferred name, and your penguin’s name.
- Routine and lifestyle information: wake time, bedtime, activity level, sweating, habits, barriers, motivations, and relevant environment selections.
- Hydration information: daily goals, water intake records, cup size, reminders, progress history, and achievements.
- Health-limitation selection: whether a healthcare professional has asked you to limit fluids, and a clinician-set goal if you choose that path.
2. How SipPal Water uses this information
SipPal Water uses this information on your device to estimate a general daily hydration goal, show daily and weekly progress, schedule reminders, personalize encouragement, and calculate achievement progress.
Hydration estimates are general wellness guidance. They are not medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
3. Local storage and transmission
Your profile, routine, hydration records, goals, reminder settings, and achievements are stored locally on your device. The current version of SipPal Water does not transmit this information to our servers and does not store it in an app-managed cloud database.
Your operating system may include app data in a system-level device backup according to your device and backup settings. SipPal Water does not operate or control those backups.
No account is required. If optional account or cloud-sync features are introduced in the future, SipPal Water will explain what leaves your device, request any required permission, and update this policy before enabling those features.
4. Notifications
If you allow notifications, SipPal Water schedules hydration reminders using your selected waking hours, interval, and profile preferences. Notification permission can be changed at any time in your device settings.
5. Advertising, analytics, and third parties
The current version of SipPal Water does not use third-party advertising or analytics services to receive your profile, lifestyle, or hydration records. SipPal Water does not sell this information.
If you email support, your email address and the information you include are transmitted through your email provider and our email service provider. We use support messages only to respond, troubleshoot, protect the service, and retain necessary correspondence.
6. This website
This website does not set advertising cookies or use behavioral analytics. Hosting infrastructure may process standard technical request data—such as IP address, user agent, and request time—to deliver and secure the website.
7. Children’s privacy
SipPal Water is intended for users aged 16 and older. We do not knowingly request personal information from children under 16. If you believe a child has sent information to us through support, contact us so we can take appropriate action.
8. Security and retention
We take reasonable measures to protect information we control, but no electronic storage or transmission method is completely secure. App data remains on your device until you delete individual records, reset SipPal Water, remove the app, or your operating system handles it through a device backup.
9. Your choices and rights
You can edit profile and preference information in SipPal Water, remove individual hydration records, disable notifications, or reset all local SipPal Water data from Data Management. Depending on your location, you may also have legal rights regarding support communications or other information we hold.
10. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy as SipPal Water changes or legal requirements evolve. We will revise the effective date on this page when we make changes.
