Privacy
Private by design, not by promise.
Hansei is built so that we never see your journal. Every technical decision in Hansei starts from the same question: what is the least we need to know? We don't even use cookies on this website!
On your iPhone
Speech recognition, tagging and analysis all run on the device. Hansei never sends your journal to an AI service.
No account
There is nothing to sign up for, and we never know who you are.
No data collected
Hansei's App Store privacy label reads "Data Not Collected." No analytics, ads or tracking.
Place names
To label where an entry was made, Hansei asks Apple's map service for the name of the location, never the entry itself. Turn this off any time with Strict Privacy.
Locked when you're not looking
Face ID protects the app, and entries recorded from the Lock Screen are sealed until you unlock.
Optional iCloud sync
Off unless you turn it on. Everything is encrypted on your iPhone before it leaves, so Apple stores only sealed data and we can't see it at all. Add a passphrase for a second lock; you'll get a one-time recovery key in case you forget it.
Honest limits
If you forget both your passphrase and your recovery key, your iCloud copy can't be opened by anyone, including us. Your iPhone's copy is unaffected.
