Privacy Policy

In short

• No account, no sign-up, no ads.
• No third-party analytics or tracking SDKs, in the app or on this website.
• Your dreams and readings are stored on your device. Optional iCloud sync uses your own private iCloud database.
• AI that runs with Apple Intelligence never sends your data to us.
• Readings by Claude (Moonread Cloud) are optional. Only if you subscribe or use a trial Claude reading, and allow it, is the text being interpreted sent to our server and to Anthropic to produce a response. Our server doesn’t store it.
• Purchases are handled by Apple. We never see your payment details.
• You can export or delete everything, at any time.

Information stored on your device

Everything you create in Moonread — dreams, readings, notes, tags, moods, sleep quality and outcome tracking — is stored locally on your device using Apple’s on-device storage. We have no access to it.

You can protect the app with an optional Face ID or passcode lock. Data on your iPhone is also protected by iOS encryption when your device is locked.

iCloud sync (optional)

If you turn on iCloud sync, your data is synced between your devices through your own private iCloud database, provided by Apple. It is stored by Apple under its privacy policy (apple.com/legal/privacy). We cannot access your private iCloud database. You can turn sync off at any time in the app’s settings.

AI with Apple Intelligence

On iPhones that support Apple Intelligence, AI readings and dream interpretations are generated by Apple’s foundation models — either on your device or on Apple’s Private Cloud Compute. Apple designed Private Cloud Compute so that your data is used only to fulfil your request, is not stored, and is not accessible to Apple. In both cases nothing is sent to us. On-device processing also works offline.

Readings by Claude (Moonread Cloud, optional)

Moonread Cloud is an optional subscription for readings and dream interpretations written by Claude, an AI model made by Anthropic, PBC. It is used only if you subscribe to Moonread Cloud or use one of the 3 Claude readings included in the free trial, and only after you allow it in the app. You can withdraw your permission at any time by turning off Settings › AI › Allow readings by Claude; after that, nothing is sent to our server or to Anthropic unless you allow it again. You can also change the AI engine at any time in Settings › AI › AI engine. When you use it:

• The text of the reading or dream you want interpreted, together with the information needed to interpret it (for example the cards drawn and your app language), is sent over an encrypted connection (HTTPS) to our server and then to Anthropic, which processes it to generate the response.
• With each request, the app also sends Apple’s transaction identifier for your subscription or trial, so we can check your purchase with Apple and count your readings. Our server keeps it, together with the purchase details Apple returns for it (such as the product, purchase and expiry dates, and subscription status), in a short-lived cache for up to 6 hours. It also keeps a reading counter under your purchase’s transaction identifier: for a subscription, one per calendar month, deleted automatically about 40 days after it was last updated; for the trial, a single counter, deleted 30 days after it was last updated. Nothing else is stored with it. The identifier is used for nothing else, and it doesn’t tell us your name, email address or Apple Account.
• Our server does not store or log the text you send or the response, and does not use it for anything except producing that response. For each reading, it logs only the token counts, the model name, the plan type (subscription or trial), the kind of reading and how the response ended — no identifiers and no text.
• We send Anthropic only what it needs to write the response — never the transaction identifier or any other identifier. Anthropic does not use this data to train its models, and it automatically deletes API inputs and outputs within 30 days. Only if its safety systems flag a request for a possible violation of its Usage Policy may Anthropic keep that request longer, for up to 2 years (privacy.claude.com).
• Our server runs on Cloudflare, which processes network data such as IP addresses to deliver and protect the service (cloudflare.com/privacypolicy). We do not use your IP address to identify you.

Moonread Cloud is not available in every region — for example, it is not offered on the China mainland App Store.

Purchases

The free trial, Moonread Lifetime and Moonread Cloud subscriptions are in-app purchases handled entirely by Apple. We never see your name, email address or payment details. The app checks your purchase status on your device using Apple’s StoreKit; for Moonread Cloud, our server also checks the transaction with Apple, as described above.

This website

This website is a static site hosted on Cloudflare Pages. It sets no cookies and uses no analytics, advertising or tracking. Fonts are served from our own domain. The “card of the day” on the home page runs in your browser; today’s card and your language choice are remembered only in your browser’s local storage and never sent to us. Like any web host, Cloudflare processes technical data such as IP addresses to deliver the site and protect it from abuse.

Children

Moonread is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone.

Your rights

Apart from the short-lived purchase data and the reading counters described above for readings by Claude, we don’t hold personal data about you, so there is usually nothing for us to access, correct or delete — your data is under your control in the app. You can export everything as JSON or Markdown and delete everything from the app’s settings. If you have a question or want to exercise your rights under data-protection laws such as the GDPR or CCPA, contact us at [email protected].

Changes to this policy

If we change how Moonread handles data, we’ll post the new version on this page with a new date at the top, and mention significant changes in the app’s release notes before they take effect.
