Somnia Dreams Legal

1. What Somnia is

Somnia Dreams is a private dream journal that lets you record dreams (text or voice), receive AI-assisted interpretations (symbols, emotions, themes, and reflection prompts), view local insights over time, and optionally subscribe for premium features.

IMPORTANT: Interpretations are for reflection and entertainment only. They are not medical, psychological, psychiatric, or therapeutic advice; not a diagnosis; and not predictions of the future. If you need professional help, contact a qualified clinician or emergency services.

2. Privacy — what we collect

A. Information stored on your device

• Dream journal entries you create (dream text, dates, notes, favorites, and related metadata)
• AI interpretation results shown in the App (titles, summaries, symbols, emotions, themes, reflection questions)
• Onboarding preferences (interests, dream frequency, notification settings)
• Local subscription status / purchase-related flags needed for Premium features

This journal data is stored locally on your device using on-device storage. We do not operate a user account system for syncing dreams across devices in the current version.

B. Information sent to our servers for AI features

When you request an interpretation, the App sends to our secure backend (and from there to an AI provider such as OpenAI):

• The dream text you submit
• Optional details you add (emotions, dream type, sleep quality)
• Personalization preferences used to shape the prompt
• Device attestation / DeviceCheck token and technical request data needed to prevent abuse (for example approximate rate-limit signals)

We do not use your dream content to train our own models. We instruct providers not to use your content to train their models where such controls are available; third-party processing is still subject to their terms and privacy practices.

C. Purchases

Subscriptions are processed by Apple through the App Store / StoreKit. We do not receive your full payment card details. Apple may share limited purchase/entitlement information needed to unlock Premium.

D. Notifications

If you enable morning reminders, the App schedules local notifications on your device. We do not send push marketing campaigns unless we clearly introduce that later and update these Terms.

E. Diagnostics

We may receive limited technical information related to API errors or service health (for example timestamps, error codes, and non-content request metadata) to keep the service running. We aim to minimize logging of dream text.

3. How we use information

We use information to:

• Provide dream interpretation and journal features
• Enforce free-tier limits and prevent spam/abuse
• Process and restore Premium subscriptions
• Improve reliability and security of the App and backend
• Comply with law and App Store requirements

4. Sharing

We share data only as needed with:

• AI infrastructure providers (to generate interpretations)
• Hosting providers for our API (for example cloud hosting)
• Apple (for downloads, purchases, and related services)

We do not sell your personal information. We do not share your dreams for advertising.

5. Data retention and deletion

• On-device journal: you can delete individual dreams or all local dreams in the App. Uninstalling the App typically removes local data.
• Server-side: dream text is processed to generate a response and is not intended to be kept as a long-term dream archive on our servers. Abuse-prevention and billing/usage counters may be retained for a limited period.
• If you need help with deletion related to our backend, contact us at alex@alexframe.dev.

6. Security

We use industry-standard protections such as HTTPS. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure. Keep your device locked and updated.

7. Children

The App is not directed to children under 13 (or under 16 where required). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child provided data, contact us and we will take appropriate steps.

8. Your rights

Depending on your location (for example EEA/UK/California), you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict certain processing, and to object or port data. Because most journal data stays on your device, many requests are handled by using in-App delete controls. For other requests, email alex@alexframe.dev.

9. Terms — license to use the App

We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the App for your own non-commercial purposes, subject to these Terms and App Store rules.

10. Your content

You retain rights to the dream text you create. You grant us a limited license to process that content solely to provide the AI features you request. You are responsible for what you write and must not submit unlawful content.

11. Premium subscriptions and billing

• Premium may include unlimited interpretations and additional insight features as described in the App.
• Payment is charged to your Apple ID account.
• Subscriptions auto-renew unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
• Manage or cancel in iOS Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions.
• Free trials, if offered, convert to paid subscription unless canceled in time.
• Prices are shown in the App / App Store and may vary by region.

Refunds are handled by Apple under Apple's policies.

12. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• Abuse, overload, or reverse engineer the App or API
• Attempt to bypass paywalls, DeviceCheck, or rate limits
• Use the App for unlawful purposes
• Rely on interpretations as professional advice

13. Disclaimers

THE APP AND ALL INTERPRETATIONS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT INTERPRETATIONS WILL BE ACCURATE, COMPLETE, OR USEFUL FOR ANY DECISION.

14. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS, OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE APP. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM RELATING TO THE APP IS LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US FOR PREMIUM IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM OR (B) USD $10.

15. App Store / Apple

You acknowledge that these Terms are between you and us, not Apple. Apple is not responsible for the App or its content. Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support. In the event of a failure to conform to a warranty, you may notify Apple for a refund of the purchase price of the App (if any), and Apple has no other warranty obligation. Apple is not responsible for product claims, legal/regulatory compliance claims, or consumer protection claims. Apple is a third-party beneficiary of these Terms and may enforce them against you. You represent you are not in a U.S. embargoed country and not on a U.S. denied-party list.

16. Changes

We may update the App and these Terms. Material changes will be indicated by updating the “Last updated” date and/or in-App notice. Continued use after changes means you accept the updated Terms.
