ThirdLife works out of what your phone already knows, and almost all of it stays there. Your screen time, your health data, your calendar, and anything about your child never leave your device. We cannot see them, and neither can anyone else.
The only personal information we hold is your email address, and only if you gave it to us on our website or wrote to us. We run no ads, we sell nothing about you, and we use no analytics trackers in the app.
ThirdLife is made by ThirdLife Labs Pty Ltd (ABN 31 701 110 778), a company based in Melbourne, Australia. If anything in this policy is unclear, or you want to exercise any of the rights described below, email us at info@thirdlifeapp.com. This policy covers the ThirdLife iOS app and the thirdlifeapp.com website.
ThirdLife's insights are computed on your device, using data that stays on your device:
Because this data never reaches us, we cannot access it, recover it, disclose it, or hand it to anyone who asks. Deleting the app deletes it.
Some of your history, such as milestones and streaks, syncs through your own iCloud account so it survives reinstalls and moves between your devices. This sync runs entirely between your device and your Apple account, under Apple's iCloud terms. It does not pass through our servers, and we cannot read it.
If we ever add privacy-preserving analytics to understand how the app is used, we will update this policy first and describe exactly what is collected.
ThirdLife can be set up by a parent or guardian on a child's device. Everything about that child, including their name, activity, and scores, stays on the child's device as described above. We collect no personal information from children on our servers, and the app has no accounts, no messaging, and no social features.
If you are in the European Union, the United Kingdom, or another region with data protection laws, you have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, and port your personal data, and to object to processing. Our lawful bases are your consent (for the email list, which you may withdraw at any time) and our legitimate interest in responding when you contact us. You may also complain to your local data protection authority. In Australia, we handle personal information in line with the Australian Privacy Principles, and you may complain to us first and then to the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (oaic.gov.au).
The data described in this policy as on-device is processed wherever your phone is. Our email provider (MailerLite) and website host (Netlify) may process the limited data they hold for us in the European Union and the United States, under their own compliance programs and our agreements with them.
Your email stays on our list until you unsubscribe or ask us to remove it. Correspondence is kept only as long as it is useful for helping you. Everything on your device is yours and lasts as long as you keep the app.
If we change how ThirdLife handles data, we will update this page and change the date at the top. Meaningful changes will be flagged in the app or by email before they take effect.
