This policy covers the following Valiora applications. Each app collects different data appropriate to its purpose:
3.1 VitalIA (wellness & routines)
VitalIA is a personal wellness and self-organization tool. It collects the following data categories:
Data you enter directly (wellness check-ins):

4. Why We Use Your Data
| Purpose | Legal basis |
|---|---|
| Generate analysis, insights, patterns, and predictions within the app | Contract performance |
| Calculate correlations between metrics (local on-device processing) | Contract performance |
| Send aggregated metrics to Google Gemini AI to enrich insights | Explicit consent |
| Sync data between devices (Premium plan only, via Firestore) | Contract performance |
| Send check-in reminder notifications | Consent (notification permission) |
| Detect technical errors and improve app stability (Crashlytics) | Legitimate interest |
| Manage your Premium subscription | Contract performance |
| Comply with applicable legal obligations | Legal obligation |
For health data (special category under GDPR), the legal basis is explicit consent requested when activating each feature that requires it.
5. How We Store Your Data
5.1 Local storage (all users)
- Local database (SQLite/Drift): All check-in records, goals, preferences, and settings stored on your device first.
- Secure system storage: Credentials and access tokens stored in OS-encrypted storage (Keystore on Android, Keychain on iOS) via flutter_secure_storage.
- Local preferences: App settings, check-in streaks, and tool selections.
Uninstalling the app removes all locally stored data from your device.
5.2 Cloud storage (Premium plan only)
If you have a Premium plan, your data is securely replicated to Firebase Firestore (Google Cloud), encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest. Storage path: users/{your_unique_id}/{collection}/{entry_id}. Upon cancellation or account deletion, Firestore data is deleted within 30 business days.
5.3 Security measures
- HTTPS/TLS encryption in transit for all external communications
- Encryption at rest for credentials and tokens
- Production data access restricted to authorized Valiora personnel
- Anonymous identifiers (UUID) used in logs instead of direct identifiers
- Internal prohibition on logging user-generated content in diagnostic logs
- On-device ML models (LiteRT/TFLite) for predictions — no data sent to external servers
6. Who We Share Data With
We do not sell, rent, or transfer your personal data to third parties for commercial purposes. We share data only with the service providers strictly necessary to operate the apps:
- Google — Firebase (Firestore, Auth, Crashlytics): Authentication, cloud sync (Premium), crash reporting. Privacy policy
- Google — Gemini AI: Generates AI observations from aggregated, anonymized metrics. Personal notes and free text are never sent. Legal basis: explicit consent. Privacy policy
- Apple — HealthKit / Google — Health Connect: VitalIA reads health metrics from your device's health service. We do not write data back to HealthKit/Health Connect.
- App stores (Google Play / App Store): Premium purchases are processed by the stores. Valiora does not receive or store payment card data.
- Legal disclosure: We may disclose information when required by law, court order, or to protect rights.
7. International Data Transfers
Firebase (Google Cloud) servers may be located outside your country, including the United States. Google maintains GDPR-compliant transfer mechanisms (Standard Contractual Clauses). EU residents can review Google's transfer mechanisms at cloud.google.com/privacy/gdpr.
