Privacy Policy

The short version#

• Wane collects no data. There's no account, no ads, no analytics, no tracking and no Wane server.
• Your information stays on your devices. Your logs, plan and settings live on your iPhone and Apple Watch, and you can delete them at any time.
• Purchases are handled by Apple. We never see your name, Apple Account or payment details.
• This website uses no cookies and no analytics.
• On the App Store, Wane's privacy label is "Data Not Collected".

1. Who we are#

Wane is made by SIA "Dexlaris" ("Dexlaris", "we", "us"), a limited liability company registered in the Commercial Register of the Republic of Latvia, registration number 40203712693, VAT number LV40203712693, registered address Franča Trasuna iela 17-39, Rīga, LV-1035, Latvia. Dexlaris is the controller of the limited personal data described in sections 11 and 12.

For privacy questions or requests, email [email protected].

2. What the Wane app does not do#

Wane does not:

• ask you to create an account or sign in;
• send your information to us or to any server we run (we don't run one);
• use analytics, advertising, tracking or third-party SDKs;
• use Apple Health (HealthKit), your location, your camera or microphone;
• sell, rent or share your information with anyone.

3. What the app stores on your devices#

To work, Wane keeps the following on your iPhone and Apple Watch only:

• Your products and setup: what you use (pouches, vape or cigarettes), strength, how much you use, the price you pay and your currency, and any nicknames you give them.
• Your plan: your cut-down or quit plan, its weeks and any weeks you held.
• Your logs: the times you log, the product, the reason you tap (such as stress or coffee), check-ins, cravings you delayed and missed ones you added later.
• Your preferences: settings, awake hours, notification choices, the ideas you saved or hid, and the patches you've seen.
• Your buddy (optional): if you add a buddy, their name and the phone number or email you pick from your contacts. This is kept on your iPhone only; it is not sent to your Apple Watch.

None of this leaves your devices unless you choose to send or export it (sections 7 and 8).

The amounts of nicotine shown in the app are estimates calculated on your device.

4. iPhone and Apple Watch sync#

Your iPhone and Apple Watch exchange your Wane information directly with each other using Apple's WatchConnectivity framework. The data travels between your own devices and never through a server run by us.

Widgets and watch complications read the same information from a storage area shared by the Wane app on the same device.

iCloud: Wane does not sync your data through iCloud. If you back up your iPhone (with iCloud Backup or to a computer), your Wane data is included in that backup, which is controlled by you and Apple. If you delete Wane without a backup, your history is gone and we can't recover it, because we never had it.

5. Contacts#

To add a buddy, Wane uses Apple's contact picker. You choose one contact, and Wane receives only the name and the phone number or email you select. Wane does not ask for access to your address book and can't read your other contacts.

6. Notifications#

Notifications you turn on (for example the evening check-in, a gentle buzz when you reach your goal, busy-hour heads-ups, the Sunday buddy reminder, or the end of a craving timer) are scheduled on your device. We don't use a push notification server.

Notification text can appear on your Lock Screen or watch face. You can change previews in your device's Settings > Notifications, or turn Wane's notifications off at any time.

7. Messages and sharing#

When you send a weekly note to your buddy, share a moon card or share a patch, Wane opens Apple's Messages or the share sheet with a message ready. You decide whether to send it and to whom. The message is sent by your device through the app you pick, under that app's terms. We never see it.

8. CSV export (Wane Pro)#

If you export your history as a CSV file, the file is created on your iPhone and goes wherever you choose to save or send it. We don't receive a copy.

9. Purchases#

Wane Pro is sold through the App Store. Apple processes the payment and manages your subscription under Apple's own privacy policy (apple.com/legal/privacy). We don't receive your name, email, Apple Account or payment information.

The app checks whether you have Pro using Apple's StoreKit, on your device. Apple gives us sales and subscription reports that contain only aggregate numbers (for example, how many trials started in a country). They don't identify you.

10. Information Apple may share with us#

If you've chosen in your device settings to share analytics with app developers, Apple may give us aggregated statistics such as installs, app sessions and crash reports. These reports don't identify you, and we only use them to fix bugs and understand overall usage. You can turn this off on iPhone in Settings > Privacy & Security > Analytics & Improvements > Share With App Developers.

11. The website (letitwane.com)#

• No cookies, no analytics, no ads, no tracking pixels, no third-party scripts or embeds. Fonts and images are served from our own site.
• Server logs: like any website, our hosting and network provider, Cloudflare, Inc., automatically processes technical data when you visit (IP address, browser type, the page requested and the time) so it can deliver the page and protect it from abuse. We don't use these logs to identify or profile you. They are kept by the provider for a short period under its own policy. Legal basis (GDPR): our legitimate interest in running a secure website (Art. 6(1)(f)).
• Links to the App Store take you to Apple's website, where Apple's privacy policy applies.

12. When you email us#

If you email us at [email protected], we receive your email address and whatever you include in your message. We use it only to answer you. Please don't send your Wane logs or health information unless you want us to see them.

Emails are stored with our email provider, Hostinger International Ltd. We delete support conversations within 12 months after they end, unless we need to keep them longer to meet a legal obligation. Legal basis (GDPR): our legitimate interest in answering your request (Art. 6(1)(f)), or taking steps you asked for (Art. 6(1)(b)).

13. Your choices and rights#

Because your Wane data lives on your devices, you control it directly:

• See it: everything is visible in the app (Today, Progress, History).
• Export it: Settings > Pro > Export CSV (Wane Pro).
• Delete it: Settings > About > Delete all data removes your history, plan and settings from your iPhone, and the deletion syncs to your Apple Watch. Deleting the app from your devices also deletes its data.

If you are in the EU, EEA, UK or Switzerland (GDPR): you have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict or object to the processing of personal data we hold about you, and to data portability. In practice, the only personal data we may hold is an email you sent us. To use these rights, email [email protected]. You also have the right to complain to a data protection authority, in Latvia the Data State Inspectorate (Datu valsts inspekcija, www.dvi.gov.lv), or the authority where you live.

If you are in California or another US state with a privacy law (CCPA/CPRA and similar): we do not sell or share personal information, we don't use it for targeted advertising, and we don't collect, share or sell consumer health data. You have the right to know, delete and correct personal information we hold about you, and we will never treat you differently for using these rights. Email [email protected].

We answer requests within 30 days.

14. Children#

Wane is for adults 18 and over, and is rated 18+ on the App Store. It isn't directed at children or teenagers, and we don't knowingly receive information from anyone under 18. If you think someone under 18 has emailed us, contact [email protected] and we'll delete it.

15. Security#

Your Wane data is protected by your device's own security, including your passcode, Face ID or Touch ID, and Apple's encryption. Data passed between your iPhone and Apple Watch uses Apple's encrypted connection. Keep a passcode on your devices to keep your Wane history private.

16. Changes to this policy#

If we change how Wane handles information, we'll update this page and the effective date at the top. If a change is significant (for example, if Wane ever started collecting any data), we'll say so clearly in the app's release notes and on this website before the change takes effect, and we'll update the App Store privacy label.
