2. Scope and Application
This Policy applies to all users of the HabitKai mobile application, as well as to all visitors of the associated landing page. The use of any of these means implies the reading and understanding of this document.
3. Legal Framework and Principles
Personal data processing is carried out in strict compliance with the fundamental principles of the GDPR, namely lawfulness, fairness and transparency, purpose limitation, data minimization, and integrity and confidentiality. HabitKai adopts an accountability-based approach, ensuring that any processing is adequate, relevant and limited to what is strictly necessary.
Additionally, the application has been designed based on the principles of "privacy by design" and "privacy by default", ensuring maximum protection of user privacy from the outset.
4. Personal Data Processed
Within the context of the landing page, the user's email address may be collected exclusively when voluntarily provided and with explicit consent, namely through newsletter or email marketing subscription forms.
Regarding the mobile application, it is expressly clarified that HabitKai does not collect, store or process any personal data. All information entered by the user, including habits, progress or preferences, remains exclusively stored on the user's own device. Such data is not transmitted, synchronized, or accessed by the Data Controller.
5. Purpose of Processing
The data collected through the landing page is used exclusively for sending communications related to HabitKai, including updates, improvements, informational content, or the promotion of new projects developed by the same entity.
No personal data processing takes place within the mobile application.
6. Legal Basis
The processing of personal data carried out through the Website is based on the data subject's consent, pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR. Such consent is freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous, and may be withdrawn at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out prior to its withdrawal.
7. Data Retention
Personal data will be retained only for the period strictly necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, or until the user withdraws consent or requests its deletion.
8. Data Subject Rights
Under applicable law, users have the right to access their personal data, request its rectification or erasure, restrict or object to processing, as well as exercise the right to data portability. Users may also withdraw consent at any time.
Additionally, users have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority.
9. Data Sharing and Transfers
HabitKai does not share personal data with third parties, nor does it carry out international data transfers. Collected data is not sold, disclosed or made available to any external entity.
10. Information Security
HabitKai adopts appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect personal data against loss, destruction, unauthorized access or any unlawful processing.
In the case of the mobile application, since the data remains exclusively on the user's device, its security also depends on the protection measures adopted by the user, such as passcodes or biometric authentication.
11. Third-Party Services and Tracking
The HabitKai application does not integrate any third-party services that involve the collection of personal data, including analytics, tracking or advertising tools. There is no monitoring of user behavior within the application.

HabitKai fully complies with the transparency and data protection requirements imposed by the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. In particular, it is ensured that no personal data is collected within the application, no data is shared with third parties, no cross-app tracking occurs, and no user profiles are created.
