- Introduction
At myMadiDiary, we prioritize your privacy and are committed to safeguarding the personal information you share with us as you use our journaling and planning platform. We recognize the trust you place in us to manage, store, and process your data, and we strive to be transparent about what information we collect, why we collect it, and how we use, share, and protect it. Our goal is to create a secure environment where you can focus on journaling, planning, and organizing without concerns about your data’s confidentiality and integrity.
- Information We Collect
- Account Information. When you sign up for a myMadiDiary account, we collect personal details such as your name, email address, and chosen password. This information enables you to create and access your personal journal and planner space.
- Profile Information. If you choose to personalize your profile (e.g., uploading a profile picture, selecting preferences, or linking social accounts), we store those details to enhance your experience and facilitate features like sharing templates or collaborating within groups.
- Usage Data. We automatically collect usage metrics (e.g., pages viewed, time spent on features, frequency of using reminders) to understand how you interact with myMadiDiary. This helps us continually refine functionality, prioritize new features, and ensure stable performance.
- Device and Log Data. Information such as your device type, operating system, IP address, browser type, and crash reports is gathered to diagnose technical issues, optimize performance, and protect against fraudulent activity.
- Cookies and Similar Technologies. We use cookies, web beacons, and comparable tracking tools to remember your session, personalize your experience, and collect analytics. You can manage cookie preferences via your browser settings, though disabling certain cookies may limit functionality.

- Communication. We may send you service-related notices (e.g., account updates, security alerts, policy changes) and, if you opt in, occasional newsletters or feature announcements. You can opt out of marketing emails at any time.
- Security and Fraud Prevention. We monitor for suspicious activity to protect your account, prevent unauthorized access, and maintain platform integrity.
- Legal Compliance. Where required, we use and disclose information to comply with legal obligations (e.g., responding to lawful requests from government authorities, defending our legal rights).
- How We Share Your Information
- Service Providers. We engage third-party vendors for payment processing, email delivery, cloud storage, and analytics. These partners receive only the data necessary to perform their services and are bound by contractual obligations to maintain confidentiality.
- Business Transfers. In the event of a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, user information may be transferred as part of the transaction; however, we will require the acquiring entity to uphold this privacy policy.

- Remember user preferences (e.g., theme, language).
- Analyze how you navigate and use features, enabling us to optimize performance.

You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings. Note that disabling essential cookies may limit core functionality (e.g., saving entries, staying logged in).
- Data Retention
- Account Information & Journals. Remain until you delete your account or request permanent deletion.
- Usage Data & Logs. Maintained for a period to analyze trends, detect abuse, and improve our service, then aggregated or anonymized.

- Security Measures
We implement industry-standard security safeguards—such as encryption (in transit and at rest), access controls, regular security assessments, and incident response protocols—to protect your data. While no transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed as completely secure, we continually evaluate and refine our practices to minimize risk.

- Opt-Out of Marketing. If you no longer wish to receive promotional emails, use the “unsubscribe” link in any newsletter or contact us at support@mymadidiary.com.
- Cookies. You may opt out of non-essential cookies via browser settings; see Section 5 above.
- Do Not Track. We currently do not respond to “Do Not Track” signals but provide controls within our platform for managing privacy preferences.
- International Data Transfers
Since myMadiDiary’s servers or third-party service providers may be located outside your jurisdiction, your data could be transferred internationally. Whenever we do so, we ensure appropriate safeguards (e.g., Standard Contractual Clauses, EU-approved data transfer mechanisms) to maintain data protection standards.
- Children’s Privacy
myMadiDiary is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect or solicit personal data from anyone under 13. If a parent or guardian becomes aware that their child under 13 provided us with information, they should contact us at support@mymadidiary.com. We will delete such data promptly.
- Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this policy periodically to reflect changes in practices or for legal, operational, or regulatory reasons. When we post changes, we revise the “Last updated” date. If we make significant changes affecting your rights, we will provide prominent notice (e.g., email notification or in-app alert). Continued use of myMadiDiary following any update constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.
