Privacy Policy

Last Updated: October 13, 2026

By using DreamSphere, you agree to the collection and use of information as described below.

This Privacy Policy explains how DreamSphere (“we,” “our,” or “us”) collects, uses, and protects your information when you use our mobile app, web app, and marketing website (collectively, the “Services”).

1. Information We Collect

1.1 Account Information

We collect your email address and name when you create an account or sign up for our waitlist.

1.2 Dream Data & Reflections

When you enter dreams and reflections into the app (including dream titles, dream text, emotion tags, vividness ratings, and your reflection responses), we collect that content to power features like journaling, your dream log, and AI analysis, and, as we add them, features like pattern tracking.

1.3 User Profile

You may optionally add biographical info (e.g., age, location, cultural background) to enhance your experience. This is used only to personalize your insights.

1.4 Voice Input

If you dictate a dream, your speech is transcribed on your device. We do not receive or store audio recordings of your voice. We receive only the resulting text when you save the entry. If your device's speech recognition relies on Apple's services, that processing is governed by Apple's privacy terms.

1.5 Usage, Device & Diagnostic Data

We collect information about how you use the app (for example, which features you open), basic device and app-version details, and crash and performance reports. We use this to improve our services and fix technical issues. Some of this data may be associated with your account.

1.6 Marketing & Website Analytics

On our website, we use tools like Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, and an email service provider to understand how people find and interact with our site and to send occasional emails (with your consent). The DreamSphere app does not track you across other companies' apps and websites.

1.7 Cookies & Similar Technologies

On our website, we use the following optional cookies and similar technologies:

Google Analytics, through Google Tag Manager, to measure how visitors use our site
Microsoft Clarity, to understand how visitors interact with our pages (for example, clicks and scrolling)
MailerLite, to power our email sign-up forms and prompts

If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, we ask for your permission first and load these only if you accept. If you decline, they are not loaded and the site works the same way.

If you are anywhere else, these are on by default and you can turn them off at any time. We also honor your choice if you turn them off.

We save your choice in your browser's local storage so we do not ask again on every visit. You can change it at any time with the “Cookie settings” link in the footer of any page. We determine your region from your approximate location, based on your IP address, when you load a page. Some third-party services may also be governed by their own privacy policies.

2. How We Use Your Information

To provide, maintain, and improve the DreamSphere app and website
To generate AI analysis when you request it
To personalize your experience
To understand product usage and fix crashes and technical problems
To send updates, reminders, or newsletters (you can opt out)
To analyze aggregated, anonymized data for research
To comply with legal obligations and prevent abuse

3. AI-Powered Analysis

When you choose to request an AI analysis of a dream, DreamSphere sends the text of that dream and the reflections you have added for it to Anthropic, whose language model (Claude) generates the analysis. We do this only when you request an analysis and have given your permission in the app.

Anthropic processes this content on our behalf under its commercial terms, which state that content sent through its API is not used to train its models. Anthropic may retain the content for a limited period under its own policies. You can read more in Anthropic's Privacy Policy.
AI analysis offers possible themes and questions for you to consider. It is not medical or psychological advice, and it does not diagnose or predict anything. You decide what fits.
If you do not want your content sent to Anthropic, do not request an analysis. The rest of the app works without it.

4. How We Share Your Information

We only share your data with:

Anthropic, to generate the AI analysis you request (see Section 3)
Trusted service providers (e.g., Google Cloud, database hosting, product analytics, and crash reporting) under strict data agreements
Legal authorities, if required by law
Successor entities, in case of acquisition (you'll be notified)
No one else. We do not sell your personal data. DreamSphere has no social feed and no public sharing

5. Security Measures

We protect your information with:

Encryption in transit and at rest
Regular security reviews and patching
Strict access control policies
Providers selected for their privacy protections

No method of storage or transmission is completely secure, but we work to protect your information.

6. Data Retention & Deletion

We keep your information only as long as needed to serve you or meet legal requirements.

You can delete your account from within the app. When you do, we permanently delete or anonymize your data within 30 days (with exceptions for inactive backups or legal compliance). Content previously sent to Anthropic for analysis is retained by Anthropic only under its own policies, as described in Section 3.

7. Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

Access your data
Correct or delete it
Object to or limit its use
Download it (portability)

You can exercise these rights by submitting a data request here. We may verify your identity before processing requests.

If you reside in the European Economic Area or UK:

We process your data under lawful bases including consent, contract, and legitimate interest
We may transfer data to the U.S. (including to our service providers and to Anthropic), using standard contractual clauses for legal protection

9. California Privacy Rights (CCPA/CPRA)

If you're a California resident:

Know what personal information we collect
Request that we do not sell or share your personal information
Request that we delete your data

To exercise these rights, please email us at support@dreamsphere.app. We will respond within the timeframes required by law (typically 45 days).

We do not sell personal data.

10. Children's Privacy

Our Services are not intended for users under 18. If you believe your child has submitted data to us, contact us immediately and we'll delete it.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. We'll post updates here and notify users via email or in-app if changes are significant.
