1. About This Policy

This Privacy Policy describes how Almost Media Limited ("we", "us", or "our") handles your information in connection with the bloom - wellness iOS application ("the App"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and being fully transparent about how your data is used.

bloom - wellness is designed with privacy at its core. The vast majority of your personal and wellness data is stored locally on your own device and is never transmitted to us or any third party. This policy explains what that means in practice and what rights you have.

2. Data Controller

The data controller responsible for the bloom - wellness application is:

Almost Media Limited
Website: almostmedia.co.uk
Email: info@almostmedia.co.uk

3. What Data Does bloom - wellness Collect?

bloom - wellness allows you to record the following types of wellness and lifestyle data. All of this information is stored locally on your device only and is never transmitted to our servers:

• Fasting window settings and daily food log entries
• Body weight logs, measurement history, and goal settings
• Journal entries, written reflections, and mood check-ins
• Supplement names, schedules, and medication reminders
• Sleep log entries (bedtime, wake time, and quality rating)
• Habit tracking entries and daily task completions
• Hydration log data
• Daily wellness check-in and energy responses

This data does not leave your device unless it is included in an Apple iCloud Backup, which is a feature of iOS governed by Apple's own Privacy Policy (see Section 5).

4. Data We Do Not Collect

We want to be absolutely clear about what bloom - wellness does not do:

• We do not collect your name, email address, or any account information
• We do not require registration or user login of any kind
• We do not transmit your health or wellness data to our servers
• We do not use analytics tools, tracking SDKs, or crash reporting tools that process personal data
• We do not display advertising of any kind within the app
• We do not share your data with advertisers or data brokers
• We do not sell your data to any third parties
• We do not use cookies or any form of cross-app tracking

5. Apple App Store & iCloud

bloom - wellness is distributed through the Apple App Store. Apple may collect certain data as part of the download and installation process, including your Apple ID and device identifiers. This is governed entirely by Apple's Privacy Policy, available at apple.com/uk/legal/privacy.

If you have iCloud Backup enabled on your iOS device, data stored by bloom - wellness may be included in that backup. This is a standard iOS feature and its handling is governed by Apple's Privacy Policy, not ours. If you wish to exclude bloom - wellness from iCloud Backup, you can do so in your device's Settings > [Your Name] > iCloud > Manage Storage > Backups.

6. Data Security

Because all data is stored locally on your device, the security of your bloom - wellness data is inherently tied to the security of your iPhone. We strongly recommend using a device passcode and enabling Face ID or Touch ID to prevent unauthorised access.

We have no access to the data stored within the bloom - wellness app at any time, and we cannot retrieve or restore it if your device is lost, damaged, or reset. We recommend ensuring you have an active iCloud or iTunes backup if you wish to preserve your data.

7. Your Rights Under UK GDPR

Under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018, you have a number of rights relating to your personal data. In the context of bloom - wellness, these rights apply as follows:

• Right of access — all of your data is visible to you directly within the app at all times
• Right to erasure — you can delete individual entries within the app, or delete the app from your device to remove all stored data
• Right to rectification — any data entry can be edited or updated at any time within the app
• Right to data portability — your data is stored on your own device and you have full access to it
• Right to object — as no personal data is collected or processed by us on our servers, there is no processing by us to object to
• Right not to be subject to automated decision-making — bloom - wellness does not make any automated decisions about you

If you have any questions about exercising your rights, please contact us at info@almostmedia.co.uk.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the UK's data protection supervisory authority, the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), at ico.org.uk.

8. Children's Privacy

bloom - wellness is intended for use by adults aged 18 and over. The app is focused on midlife wellness and is not directed at, nor intended for, anyone under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect any data from children.

If you believe a child under 18 is using this application, please contact us at info@almostmedia.co.uk and we will assist you in removing any data from their device.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time, for example if we introduce new features that involve different data handling, or to reflect changes in applicable law. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date shown at the top of this page and release an updated version of the app through the App Store.

We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically. Continued use of the bloom - wellness app following any updates constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy. Where changes are material, we will seek to notify users through the App Store update notes.
