Privacy policy

Last updated: October 29, 2026

In short

Ohaiyou collects nothing. Your pet's brain, your chats, your diary, and your photos stay on your phone. There's no account, no ads, no tracking, and no analytics.

Your chats and diary

Everything you write, everything your pet writes, what it remembers about you, and your moods are stored only on your phone. Nothing is sent to us or to anyone else. The AI runs on your phone itself, not in the cloud.

Photos

Ohaiyou only sees the photos you pick for your diary. They're copied into the app on your phone, so they stay even if you delete the originals. Pictures of your pet are saved to your gallery only when you choose to.

The internet

Ohaiyou uses the internet once, to download your pet's brain from GitHub (github.com/bunsoootchi/ohaiyou-downloads). Like any website, GitHub may see your IP address while you download (see GitHub's privacy statement). Nothing else is sent or received, and after that the app works offline.

Backups

A backup is a single file that you save and keep wherever you like. It's yours: we never see it.

Lock, reminders, and notifications

The Journal lock is a 4-number PIN you choose. It stays on your device, saved only in a scrambled form (a hash), never as the numbers. Reminders and the focus timer are scheduled on your phone.

Children

Ohaiyou doesn't collect information from anyone, including children.

Deleting your data

Delete any page in the Journal, or uninstall the app to remove everything. Since nothing is stored anywhere else, that's all there is.

Questions

Write to bunsoootchi@gmail.com (or use Send feedback in Settings, under Help).

Changes

If this ever changes, we'll update this policy in the app first.
