Your dreams stay yours

What stays on your device

Your dreams, their descriptions and beliefs, night sessions, morning check-ins, journal reflections, the small steps you plan, favourite anchors and settings are stored in the app’s storage on this device.

If you set an app lock, the passcode is kept on the device only as a one-way hash and is never sent to us. Face ID and Touch ID are handled entirely by iOS: the app never sees your biometric data.

In the iPhone and Android apps, reminders are scheduled by your device’s own notification system. We don’t send them and we don’t know when they fire.

On the website, a browser can’t schedule a reminder by itself, so our server sends it. When you turn a reminder on, your browser gives us an address at its push service (Google, Mozilla, Apple or Microsoft, depending on the browser) and we store it with the reminder (bedtime or morning), its time, your time zone and the app’s language, on our server hosted by netcup in Germany (EU). The reminder text is the same for everyone and is encrypted for your browser. Nothing else is stored, and that address is not linked to your dreams, to sync or to you. Turning the reminder off deletes it; an address the browser no longer accepts, or one the site hasn’t been opened with for 90 days, is deleted automatically.

AI help for your dream

This is off until you tap “Yes, help me” on the card that names Infomaniak (when you describe your dream) or “Write moments for my dream” on the night screen, and you can turn it off again in Settings → Privacy. When it is on, the app sends the name of the dream you are picturing, the description you wrote and your answers to its questions (if you wrote any), your last moment, the line you wrote that morning (if any), and the app’s language, to our server, hosted by netcup in Germany (EU), over an encrypted HTTPS connection. Our server passes them on to Infomaniak’s AI service, hosted in Switzerland, which writes questions, a description, a few moments or the anchor of the day for that dream; Infomaniak states that it keeps none of this content and does not use it to train models. If Infomaniak can’t answer, a language model that runs on our own server writes them instead.

They are used for that answer only. Neither we nor Infomaniak store or log them, and they are never linked to you or to your device: Infomaniak only sees our server, not you. Your description, the moments and the anchor are kept on your device: something is sent again only when the dream, its description or your morning line changes, and once a day for the anchor. To limit load, our server counts requests per connection for an hour, using a one-way hash of the IP address.

If our server can’t be reached, the app shows its own suggested scenes instead, and you can always write your own moment.

Optional sync

Sync is off by default. When you turn it on in Settings, a copy of the data listed above (except the app lock) is sent over an encrypted HTTPS connection to our server, hosted by netcup in Germany (EU).

That copy is tied only to identifiers derived from a recovery code the app creates and shows you once. The code itself never leaves your device: our server stores only a one-way hash of the secret derived from it. We never ask for your name, email address or any account.

Keep the recovery code private: whoever has it can restore your synced copy on another device. To slow down guessing, our server counts failed attempts per connection (using a one-way hash of the IP address, not the address itself) and pauses them for 15 minutes after too many.

We use this copy for one purpose: to store it and give it back to you, on this device or wherever you enter your recovery code. We don’t read it, sell it, share it, or use it for advertising or analytics.

What we don’t do

No tracking, no advertising, no analytics, no third-party SDKs that collect data. We don’t combine your data with any other source.

Like any website, our server keeps short-lived technical logs (such as IP address and time of request) to keep the service secure and running.

Deleting your data

Settings → Reset data erases everything on this device and, if you ever turned on sync, deletes the copy on our server. If our server can’t be reached, nothing is erased and you can simply try again.

Turning sync off stops new uploads but keeps the existing server copy until you use Reset data. Deleting the app removes the data on your device; if you used sync, use Reset data first, or write to us.

You can also export all your data as a file at any time from Settings → Export data.

Your rights

Under the GDPR you can access, correct, export and delete your data. Most of this you can do directly in the app; for anything else, write to contact@biggerlife.me. You can also lodge a complaint with your data protection authority (in France, the CNIL).
