Saju Letter

Privacy Policy

Effective date: July 29, 2026

Saju Letter ("we", "us", or "the Service") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect and how we use it when you use the Saju Letter app and the public compatibility-sharing page at saju-letter.com/compat.

1. Information We Collect

  • Provided by you: name (or nickname), birth date, gender (optional), device timezone
  • Optional: birth time (you may choose "unknown"), email address (used only to prevent free-trial abuse)
  • Collected automatically: Firebase authentication identifier (UID), device push token (FCM), subscription/purchase status (via RevenueCat), crash/error diagnostic data, and — only on the public compatibility page — your IP address, used briefly for abuse-prevention rate limiting and not stored long-term
  • Content you write: free text you enter in the "Ask" feature, which is sent to an AI provider to generate a personalized reply

2. How We Use Your Information

  • To identify your account and provide the service (calculating your saju information and generating/delivering daily and weekly letters)
  • To send push notifications
  • To process subscription payments and prevent free-trial abuse
  • To generate a personalized reply in the "Ask" feature
  • To improve the service and respond to errors

3. Retention Period

We delete your information when you close your account (or promptly after we receive a deletion request).

Your birth date and birth time are stored encrypted (AES-256). Calculated results (day master, month branch, hour branch) are not personally identifying on their own, so we store them without encryption.

Where law requires longer retention (e.g., payment records), we retain that data only for the legally required period before deletion.

4. Third Parties We Share Data With

We share data with the following third parties only as needed to provide the service:

  • Firebase (Google): authentication and push notifications
  • RevenueCat: subscription status management (actual payment is processed by Google Play Billing; we do not store your card or payment details ourselves)
  • Our AI content provider (currently OpenAI; may be Anthropic or Google depending on configuration): generates the wording of your letters and "Ask" replies. This may include your calculated saju values and the text you write in the "Ask" feature.
  • Sentry: crash and error monitoring

5. The Compatibility-Sharing Feature and Non-Member (Guest) Data

A friend who opens a compatibility link you share does not need to create an account — they only enter their name and birth date. Their actual birth date is never sent to our servers; it is calculated entirely on their own device or browser, and only the resulting "day master" value (not personally identifying) is sent to us and stored. The name they enter is used only to display it on the result screen and is not used for any other purpose.

6. Your Rights

You can delete your account yourself at any time from the app's Settings screen. Deleting your account immediately replaces identifying information (name, email, gender, birth date and time) with anonymized values, and cancels auto-renewal if you have an active subscription (you keep access until the period you already paid for ends, and you will not be charged again afterward). For any other requests — such as accessing or correcting your information — please contact us using the information below.

7. Security Measures

  • Sensitive information such as birth date and birth time is stored using AES-256 encryption
  • Encryption keys are managed through a dedicated key management service (KMS) and are never hardcoded
  • Access to the admin panel requires separate authentication

8. Children's Privacy

This service is intended for users aged 16 and older, and the app verifies this using the birth date you provide during onboarding. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If we become aware that a child under 16 has used the service, we will take appropriate steps to delete the relevant information promptly.

9. Contact Us

10. Changes to This Policy

This policy is effective as of July 29, 2026, and may be updated as our practices, applicable laws, or the service itself change. We will notify you of material changes through the app or this page.
