The short version: Hum doesn't collect anything. There are no servers. There are no accounts. Your check-ins live on your phone and nowhere else.
What Hum stores
Your daily check-ins — a number from 0 to 10 and the date you tapped it — are saved on your device using iOS's local storage. We can't see them. We have no infrastructure that could see them. They never leave your phone.
If you delete Hum, that data is removed along with the app, the same way any other iOS app's data is removed when uninstalled.
What Hum sends anywhere
Nothing. Hum does not communicate with any server we operate, because we don't operate any. The country averages shown in the app are bundled into the app itself when you download it from the App Store — they aren't fetched live, and using them tells us nothing about you.
Third parties
Hum uses no third-party analytics, advertising SDKs, crash reporting services, or tracking libraries. We do not share your data with anyone, because we don't have any of your data to share.
The country averages displayed in the app are sourced from the World Happiness Report, a publicly available research dataset.
Children
Hum is not directed at children under 13. Because Hum collects no data from anyone, it also collects no data from children. If you're a parent with questions, please get in touch.
Changes to this policy
If anything ever changes — for example, if a future version of Hum adds a feature that needs to send data somewhere — we'll update this page and note the change at the top. Any new data collection will also be disclosed clearly inside the app before it happens, not buried here.
