Privacy Policy

MINDARAE TECHNOLOGY CO., LIMITED ("MINDARAE", "we", "us", or "our") builds digital products including Glowhiz, a wellness and self-awareness companion for compatible smart rings. This policy explains how we handle information on this company website and in Glowhiz.

Glowhiz and health-related data

The current Glowhiz app does not require an account and does not provide a cloud health dashboard. Ring wellness data—such as sleep, heart-rate, activity, workout records, timestamps, and data-quality states—is normalized and stored locally on the user's phone. Existing device or app history may also be received or retained locally for compatibility; keeping historical records does not make them available as features in the current version. Glowhiz does not upload that health data to MINDARAE or Glowhiz servers.

Glowhiz may also store the user's journal text, notes, photos, voice recordings, preferences, ring binding state, and downloaded mindfulness resources locally. Glowhiz does not upload those personal records to MINDARAE or Glowhiz servers. During normal app use, product network requests are limited to downloading public mindfulness resources through app-managed HTTPS requests to res.glowhiz.com; those requests do not include health data, journal text, notes, photos, voice recordings, or device binding details. The app requests versioned resource paths; the root domain is not intended as a standalone browsing page.

Optional personal profile fields include nickname, birth year, height, weight, and maximum heart-rate settings. When a user explicitly saves changes while a ring is bound, changed, non-empty age, height, and weight values may be sent to the ring over Bluetooth. Age is derived from birth year; birth year itself, nickname, and maximum heart-rate settings stay on the phone. This is not an upload to our servers.

Users may choose to save or share workout summary images through system controls. Only the selected image is passed to Photos, a file location, or the chosen app; journal text, personal photos, and voice recordings are not automatically included. Receiving services handle copies under their own policies.

Permissions

Glowhiz uses Bluetooth for ring discovery, connection, binding, reconnection, and sync; camera and Photos for personal moments; microphone for voice notes; and notifications for optional reminders. Saving workout images on iOS may request permission to add to Photos; Android uses a system file picker. Sharing uses system share controls. Android 11 and earlier may require location permission for legacy Bluetooth scanning compatibility, while Android 12 and later use nearby-device Bluetooth permissions instead. The current product flow does not read phone location, create a GPS history, or upload location. The current iOS app does not request location permission. Glowhiz does not currently access Apple Health or Health Connect.

Website and service logs

This company website and public Glowhiz resources may receive ordinary operational information such as IP address, request time, requested path, response status, user agent, referrer, and basic connection details. We use this information for security, availability, troubleshooting, and abuse prevention. Access is restricted to site operations, and logs are retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for those purposes or as required by law. The exact retention period depends on the applicable server operations policy.

Retention and deletion

Supported journal and workout entries can be deleted in the app. Local Glowhiz records and cached resources can be removed by clearing app data where the operating system supports it or uninstalling the app; mindfulness downloads may also be automatically evicted to manage cache space. Unbinding does not delete local history; explicitly replacing a ring clears its old synced wellness cache. Data on the ring and images already saved, exported, or shared are not erased with the app and need to be removed separately. Device and system backup retention follows operating-system settings. If you email us, we retain your message and contact details only as reasonably necessary to respond, provide support, protect our rights, or meet legal obligations.

Wellness boundary

Glowhiz and its companion ring support everyday sleep, activity, and workout tracking for general wellness and lifestyle reference. The information is not for diagnosis, treatment, or medical decisions and does not replace professional medical advice. Glowhiz does not provide emergency services.

Changes and contact

We may update this policy when our products, permissions, data flows, or legal requirements change. We will update the date above and publish the current version here. For privacy questions, contact support@mindarae.com. The dedicated Glowhiz policy is available at www.glowhiz.com/privacy.
