Privacy Policy
Last Updated: May 23, 2026
PortalKinetic is a wellness and productivity app for focus, regulation, routines, and reflection. This policy explains what we collect, why we collect it, and the choices you have.
Information We Collect
We collect account information, profile preferences, app activity you choose to create, and product telemetry needed to operate and improve the service. This may include routines, brain dumps, regulation session history, NFC shortcut configuration, and weekly reflection signals.
This may also include product data such as tasks, routines, preferences, sessions, check-ins, settings, app usage events, device type, app version, crash logs, diagnostics, approximate region, security logs, and support messages or files you send to us.
Sensitive Data Boundary
PortalKinetic is designed to avoid collecting unnecessary sensitive information. Users should not enter emergency medical information, diagnosis records, medication instructions, therapy notes, legal information, or crisis information into the app unless a specific feature clearly asks for it and explains why.
Optional Health Data
If you connect Apple Health, PortalKinetic reads heart rate variability and sleep duration to provide energy context and regulation suggestions. Health data is optional, linked to your account, used only for app functionality, and is not sold, shared with advertisers, or used for tracking.
Optional Microphone Access
Some somatic support tools may ask for microphone permission to detect coarse sound level changes, such as a sigh or vocal anchor. PortalKinetic does not store raw audio recordings from these gates. Detection happens for the current exercise and is used only to help complete that flow.
NFC, Photos, Camera, Face ID, And Notifications
NFC is used only for shortcuts you choose to create. Photos or camera access is used for profile pictures. Face ID is used to protect account access on your device. Notifications are optional and are used for reminders and support moments you enable.
How We Use Information
We use information to provide the app, sync your account, personalize suggestions, maintain safety and security, debug issues, and improve reliability. We do not sell personal information.
We may also use information to process billing and subscriptions, provide customer support, maintain account security, comply with law, and prevent abuse or fraud.
What We Do Not Do
We do not provide medical diagnosis or treatment. We do not use private task content, brain dumps, journals, or memory content for employer surveillance. We do not knowingly collect children's data unless a specific child-directed product is separately launched with appropriate consent.
Retention And Deletion
We keep information while your account is active or as needed to provide the service, comply with law, resolve disputes, and protect security. You can request deletion of your account or health data by contacting us.
You can request access, correction, deletion, or export of your personal information by contacting privacy@portalkinetic.com. Some information may be retained where required for security, legal, billing, fraud prevention, or compliance purposes.
Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect your information. No system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Your Choices
You can decline optional permissions, change preferences in Settings, disconnect HealthKit, turn off notifications, and request access, correction, export, or deletion where applicable.
Wellness Disclaimer
PortalKinetic is not a medical device and does not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent disease. Do not use the app for emergencies.
