Privacy policy for the Habitat Flow app (iPhone)
Effective from 6 September 2026. This policy covers Habitat Flow for iPhone. The app works alongside the habitat.flow cube and Habitat Flow for Mac: it shows what your Mac is offloading from cards and lets you start a focus session that your Mac can see.
Who processes your data
The controller is Michał Liszcz, Motion Pikczer. Contact: [email protected]. The app's server runs at habitat-system.com and is hosted in Poland.
What we collect and why
- E-mail address: to link your phone to your Habitat Flow licence, using the same address as on your Mac. Without an account, only Focus is available.
- Installation ID (a random UUID): to recognise this phone when you activate it with a code.
- Push notification token (APNs), device model and iOS version: to send a “verified” notification when your Mac finishes a card.
- Focus sessions (state and time remaining): so your Mac can show the countdown from your phone. We do not store focus session history on the server.
- Data from your Mac, reported by Habitat Flow for Mac: computer name, model, app version, GB and card counts, camera labels, project and shoot-day names, the project folder tree, ingest progress (percentage, file count, speed and current file name), and the last 200 ingests. Only you can see this data, in your own account. It does not include file contents or thumbnails.
The legal basis is performance of a contract (your Habitat Flow licence), under Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR. There are no ads, cross-app tracking or profiling. We do not sell your data.
How long we keep it
For as long as you have an account. The ingest history keeps up to the last 200 entries per Mac; older entries are removed automatically. Ingest progress and focus session state are current values that are overwritten as they change.
Deleting your account
In the app, open your account in the top right, then choose “Delete account”. The server deletes your phone activation, the list of Macs with their ingest history and folder trees, your push notification token and your focus state. The Pro plan assigned to your e-mail address (a purchase or licence) is kept as a billing record. You can also write to [email protected].
Who receives your data
Apple (APNs, to deliver notifications), Resend (to send your activation code by e-mail) and zenbox (server hosting). No one else.
Your rights
You have the rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability and objection. Write to [email protected]. You can lodge a complaint with the President of the Polish Personal Data Protection Office (UODO).
