We may keep prior versions of this policy on file; if you'd like to see an earlier version, contact us using the details at the end.
IntroVertigo is a comforting product, and we want our privacy practices to feel that way too. So here is the short version, in plain words:
The rest of this document explains all of that in more detail.
IntroVertigo is a product of Fogotta, LLC ("Fogotta," "we," "us," or "our"). This policy explains what information we collect when you use the IntroVertigo mobile app (the "Service"), how we use it, and the choices and rights you have.
For users in the European Union and the United Kingdom, the data controller for your information is Fogotta, LLC. We have not appointed an EU/UK representative or a Data Protection Officer, as we do not believe one is currently required; if that changes, we will update this policy.
You can reach us about privacy questions at help@intro-vertigo.com.
We try to collect as little as possible, and only what we need to run the Service. Here is the complete list.
When you choose to log how you're doing, we store:
These are always self-reported. The app never measures, infers, or auto-generates them.
To be completely clear, IntroVertigo does not collect any of the following:
(A future opt-in location feature is not built and is not covered by this policy.)
IntroVertigo is built to be quiet. We use only strictly necessary storage — for example, a session token kept on your device so you stay signed in. We do not use analytics cookies, advertising cookies, or advertising trackers, and we do not track you across other apps or websites. To be complete: the mobile app includes two narrow service SDKs — Firebase Cloud Messaging (push delivery) and RevenueCat (subscriptions), both described under "How your information is shared" — and neither is used for ads, analytics, or tracking you across apps.
We use the information above to:
Our in-app guidance is deterministic and rule-based. It is not AI making decisions about you. We do not engage in automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal effects or similarly significant effects about you.
What we will never do:
If you are in a region covered by the GDPR or UK GDPR, here is the legal basis we rely on for each use of your information:
You stay in control either way: you can go dark, revoke a watcher, export your data, or delete your account at any time.
Sharing is something you control, not us. We share your battery information only with the people you've personally invited into your circle, and only at the precision you set for each of them. You can change that precision, pause all sharing, or remove anyone whenever you like.
Beyond your circle, we rely on a small number of service providers to run the Service:
Our service providers are bound by contracts (data processing agreements) that require them to protect your data and use it only on our instructions, not for their own purposes.
We may also disclose information if we're legally required to (for example, a valid legal request), or to protect the rights, safety, or security of our users or the Service. Apart from that, we don't share your information with anyone — and again, we never sell it.
We keep your information for as long as your account is active and you're using the Service.
It's your data, and you stay in control. You can:
Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under laws like the GDPR or the CCPA, such as the right to object to or restrict certain processing, or to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority. We will not charge you for exercising your rights in the ordinary course, and we will never treat you differently for doing so. (As the law allows, we may decline or charge a reasonable fee for requests that are manifestly unfounded or excessive.)
To make a request, use the in-app tools or contact us at help@intro-vertigo.com. To protect your privacy, we may need to verify your identity before acting on a request — usually by confirming control of your account or your verified email address.
If you're a California resident, you have the right to know what personal information we collect and how we use it, to access and delete it, to correct it, and to not be discriminated against for exercising your rights.
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising, as those terms are defined under California law. We have not done so in the past 12 months.
The categories of personal information we collect map to California categories as follows:
We do not collect sensitive personal information such as precise geolocation, contacts, message contents, or biometric data. To submit a request, use the in-app tools or the contact details above; we'll verify it as described in the section above.
We do not make automated decisions about you that produce legal effects or similarly significant effects. The in-app guidance your circle sees is deterministic and rule-based — the same inputs always produce the same suggestion — and it is never AI deciding something about you.
We work to protect your information, including by:
No system is ever perfectly secure, but we take reasonable steps to safeguard your data and to limit what we collect in the first place. If we ever discover a data breach that affects your personal information, we will notify you and any relevant authorities as required by applicable law, and without undue delay.
IntroVertigo is intended for people 13 years of age and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. In keeping with the U.S. Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), if we learn that we've collected information from a child under 13, we will delete it.
If you are in the European Union, the United Kingdom, or another region that sets a higher age of digital consent (in some countries this is up to 16), the higher local age applies, and a parent or guardian may need to consent on your behalf. If you do not meet the minimum age that applies where you live, please do not use the Service.
If you believe a child under the applicable age has given us information, please contact us at help@intro-vertigo.com.
Our servers and email provider are based in the United States, so if you use IntroVertigo from outside the U.S., your information will be processed in the United States. Where we transfer personal information across borders, we will use an appropriate safeguard recognized under applicable law (such as Standard Contractual Clauses) to protect it.
We may update this policy from time to time. If we make a meaningful change, we'll update the effective date and last updated date above and, where appropriate, let you know in the app. Your continued use of the Service after a change means you accept the updated policy.
Questions about your privacy or this policy? We'd genuinely like to hear from you.
