Privacy policy
Last updated: 27 October 2026
In short: Baromo has no account and no sign-up. Your journal, check-ins, tastes and photos stay on your phone. We can’t access them, we don’t sell them and we don’t share them with anyone.
Who publishes the app
Baromo is published by BNK Studio. For any question about your data: barometre.appli@gmail.com.
What stays on your phone
This information is stored only in the app’s storage, on your device:
- your evening check-ins (the areas of life you pick: mood, work, love, family…), your forecast, your streak and your challenges;
- your answers to the daily taste, your favourites and your portrait;
- in Duo mode: your name, your duos’ names and your answers to duo games; in Radar mode: your date notebook;
- “My world”: the photos you pick, your colour, your totem, your word and your current song;
- the day and month of your birthday, if you give them for the horoscope;
- your settings (language, sidekick, reminder time).
Some of this relates to your mood or your love life. That is exactly why it never leaves your phone.
What goes over the internet
- Today’s news and the horoscope are downloaded from our server (Supabase, hosted in Paris, in the European Union). The request contains no information about you. As with any connection, the host technically sees your IP address in order to reply and keeps it briefly in its technical logs; we don’t use it to track you.
- This content is written every morning by an AI (Claude, by Anthropic) from public news. No player data is sent to it.
- Links to news sources open in your browser. Those sites have their own privacy rules.
- Your feedback: the “Your feedback” button in the Me tab sends us your mood, the topics you tick, your message and the app version. It’s anonymous: no name, no email, no phone identifier. Without a connection, your mail app opens instead.
- Secret notebook: your journal, intimate calendar, people, gift lists and Gazette stay on your phone only. The notebook opens with Face ID (or your phone passcode); Baromo never sees your face, your phone does the check.
- Suggestions as you type: when you look up a film, show, book or song, the text you type is sent to Apple’s public search service; for a place, to Photon (OpenStreetMap). Nothing else is sent, and these services don’t know who you are.
- Gifts: the “See” button opens an Amazon search in your browser. Amazon has its own privacy rules; the link may include our partner ID, never your data.
Photos, notifications and sharing
- Photos: Baromo accesses your photo library only when you pick a photo for “My world”. The photo is copied into the app’s storage and is never uploaded.
- Notifications: the evening reminder is scheduled on your phone. Only duo game notifications (“your duo played”) go through our server and Expo’s notification service, with your phone’s technical token and your duo’s first name.
- Sharing: a card is only shared when you tap “Share”, through your phone’s share sheet. You choose the app and the person.
- Duo links: when you start a game for two, your answers, your name and your daily tastes are packed into the link you send yourself (after the “#” sign, a part of the link browsers never send to a server). We never receive or store these links: only the person you send it to can read them.
- Linked duo: the first link also carries an invitation code. When your duo opens it, your two apps get linked and the next games go through our server (Supabase, in Europe) instead of a link. It only keeps an anonymous ID for your app (no name, email or phone number), the technical token used to send you a notification, your language, and the games on their way to your duo (first names, answers, daily tastes). Each game is deleted two days after it is received, and after 14 days at most. “Forget this duo” ends the link.
Ads, analytics and trackers
As of today, Baromo shows no ads and uses no analytics tool and no tracker. If that changes (for example an ad you would choose to watch for a bonus), this page will be updated first, and your consent will be asked where the law requires it.
Age
Baromo is intended for people aged 16 and over.
Deleting your data
Since everything is on your phone, uninstalling the app erases all your data. We can neither see nor recover it.
Your rights
The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) gives you the right to access, rectify, erase and object. We hold almost nothing: no name, no email, no account. You can write to us at any time at barometre.appli@gmail.com. You can also lodge a complaint with your data protection authority (in France, the CNIL: cnil.fr).
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be published on this page with its update date.
