Six Vibes — Cookie & Device Storage Notice
Draft — this document is under legal review and may change before launch.
Effective date: [EFFECTIVE DATE]
Six Vibes is a mobile app only. There is no Six Vibes website you log into, and the app does not use advertising cookies, tracking pixels, advertising identifiers or analytics SDKs. We don't track you across other apps or websites.
Like any app, Six Vibes stores a few things on your phone so it works. Under EU ePrivacy rules (in the Netherlands, Art. 11.7a Telecommunicatiewet) storage that is strictly necessary for a service you asked for does not need consent. Everything below falls in that category.
| What is stored on your device | Why | How long |
|---|---|---|
| Sign-in session (an access token and refresh token, in the app's private storage) | Keeps you signed in so you don't need a new email link every time | Until you sign out, delete your account or delete the app |
| Image cache (copies of profile photos you have viewed) | Photos load quickly and don't flicker or re-download | Until your phone clears its cache or you delete the app |
| App update files | Receiving bug fixes and improvements to the app | Replaced by each new update |
| Notification permission and push token (managed by your phone's operating system) | Telling you when you receive a message — only if you allowed notifications | Until you turn off notifications or delete the app |
| Location permission (managed by your phone's operating system) | Your choice whether the app may use your location while open | Until you change it in your phone's settings |
Third-party services that run inside the app
- Mapbox displays the map. Mapbox's SDK may store map tiles in a cache on your device and may collect technical telemetry about map use under Mapbox's own privacy policy. [OPERATOR: disable Mapbox telemetry in the app, then replace this sentence with "Mapbox telemetry is switched off."]
- Mapbox place search is used when creating a plan; it stores nothing on your device.
Public web pages
Our legal documents are served as PDF files from our hosting provider and set no cookies. If we launch a website at sixvibes.org that uses any non-essential cookies, we will ask for your consent first and update this notice.
Your choices
- Sign out (Profile → Settings) to remove your session from the device.
- Delete the app to remove all locally stored data.
- Change location and notification permissions at any time in your phone's settings.
