Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 13, 2026

This policy explains what information the Better Together app and the website begether.app (together, the “Service”) collect, how we use it and the choices you have. “We”, “us” and “Begether” mean the operator of the Service. Questions: [email protected].

1. Information you give us

• Account: your email address, used to sign you in with a one-time code. You can use much of the app without an account.
• Check-up and profile answers: your answers to the relationship check-up and onboarding questions (for example, relationship status and what feels hardest right now).
• Your activity: program progress, completed days, streaks, hearts, daily pulse answers, settings such as language and faith mode.
• Private notes: your journal and evening answers. These are private to you and are never shown to your partner.
• Couple features: if you connect with a partner, the name you choose and the items you send each other (gifts, hints, invites to talk, status, plans, memories, reactions).
• Support messages you send us by email.

2. What your partner can see

When you connect as a couple, your partner can see only: the display name you entered, whether you completed today’s step, your streak and number of days completed, whether you finished today’s pulse, your current program and the items you choose to send. Your check-up answers, journal and private notes are never shared.

3. Information collected automatically

We do not use advertising trackers and we do not sell or share your personal information for advertising. Our service providers may process basic technical data (such as IP address, device type and error logs) needed to run, secure and fix the Service.

4. How we use information

• To provide the app: your plan, programs, progress and couple features.
• To keep your progress safe and restore it on a new phone.
• To send sign-in codes and essential service emails.
• To process subscriptions and purchases and restore them.
• To answer support requests, keep the Service secure and improve it.

5. AI companion

The in-app companion gives general relationship tips. When AI responses are enabled, the text of your message and limited context (such as your current program and the area your check-up suggests needs care) is sent to our AI provider to generate a reply. We do not allow our providers to use this data to train their models where that option is offered. Do not share information you don’t want processed this way. The companion is not a therapist and can make mistakes.

6. Service providers

We use trusted providers to run the Service, and they process data only on our behalf: Supabase (database and sign-in, hosted in the United States), our email delivery provider (sign-in codes), Cloudflare (website and email), Apple App Store and Google Play (payments), RevenueCat (subscription status), and our AI provider (companion replies, when enabled). We may disclose information if required by law or to protect the safety of people.

7. Sensitive topics

Relationships are personal. Some answers may reveal sensitive details about your life. We use them only to provide the Service to you, protect them with access controls so only you (and, for shared items, your partner) can see them, and never use them for advertising.

8. Data retention and deletion

We keep your data while your account is active. You can delete your account and all associated data at any time in the app: Settings → Account → Delete account. You can also email us and we will delete it. Data stored only on your device is removed when you delete the app.

9. Your rights

Depending on where you live (for example, California or the European Union), you may have the right to access, correct, delete or export your personal information and to object to certain processing. Email [email protected] and we will respond within 30 days. We do not sell personal information.

10. Security

Data is encrypted in transit, and our database uses row-level access rules so each person can reach only their own data. No system is perfectly secure, so please keep your email account secure.

11. Children

The Service is intended for adults 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect information from children. If you believe a child has given us information, contact us and we will delete it.

12. Changes

If we make material changes, we will update this page and the date above and, where appropriate, notify you in the app.

If you are in danger or thinking about harming yourself, please contact local emergency services right away. In the US, call or text 988.
