Last updated: 3 August 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Checkin ("the app", "we", "us") collects, uses, and protects your information. Checkin is operated by an individual developer based in the United Kingdom. By using Checkin, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

Who we are

Checkin is a daily habit-tracking and social accountability app. It is developed and operated by an independent individual developer in the UK. If you have any questions about this policy or your data, you can contact us at [email protected].

Information we collect

When you use Checkin, we collect and store the following:

• Account information — your email address, display name, and username, which you provide when you sign up.
• Profile information — any bio and profile picture (avatar) you choose to add.
• Check-in content — the tasks you set, your check-ins, and any photos or videos you attach to them.
• Activity data — your streaks, milestones, category history, streak freezes, likes, comments, reactions, and similar activity within the app.
• Social connections — your friend relationships, friend requests, and interactions with other users.

We only collect the information needed to provide the app's features. We do not collect location data, contacts, or device identifiers beyond what is required for the app to function.

How we use your information

We use your information to:

• Create and manage your account.
• Provide the core features of the app — setting tasks, checking in, tracking streaks, and showing your progress.
• Enable social features, such as friend connections, the friends feed, comments, likes, and the leaderboard.
• Send you notifications you have permitted (such as daily reminders).
• Maintain, improve, and troubleshoot the app.
