Public privacy disclosures for SipStreak.

Privacy Policy

SipStreak Last updated: March 20, 2026

Overview

SipStreak ("the app") is a minimal, gamified water intake tracker for iOS. It helps you log daily water consumption, maintain hydration streaks, and track progress toward a personalized daily goal. This policy explains what data SipStreak accesses, what stays on-device, and what is shared with third-party services.

SipStreak is developed by Victor Solano ("we," "us," "our").

Data We Access

HealthKit (opt-in)

When you enable HealthKit integration in Settings, the app reads body mass (to suggest a daily goal) and writes dietary water intake entries to Apple Health. HealthKit access is entirely opt-in. If you decline or never enable it, the app functions fully without it. No health data leaves your device or is sent to any server.

In-App Purchases

SipStreak offers a one-time, non-consumable purchase ("SipStreak Pro") that unlocks 7 additional cosmetic themes. Purchases are processed entirely through Apple's StoreKit 2 framework. We do not handle or store payment information.

Notifications (opt-in)

When you enable hydration reminders in Settings, the app schedules local notifications at your chosen interval with configurable quiet hours. These are local-only. There is no push notification server, and no notification data is sent externally.

Tracking and Consent

SipStreak does not use any advertising SDKs, analytics frameworks, or tracking libraries. No App Tracking Transparency (ATT) prompt is shown because there is nothing to track. The app does not fingerprint your device, collect identifiers, or share data with ad networks.

Data We Store On Device

SipStreak stores the following data locally on your device:

• SwiftData: Water entries (amount, glass size, timestamp), streak records (daily totals, goal status, streak counts), user profile (weight, activity level, daily goal, unit preference), and glass presets (named sizes with icons).
• UserDefaults: Theme selection, unit preference, reminder settings, quiet hours, HealthKit toggle state, and onboarding completion flag.
• App Group UserDefaults: Widget data (today's intake, daily goal, streak count, theme) shared between the main app and the WidgetKit extension via the shared group group.com.sipstreak.shared.

None of this data is synced to any cloud service or backend. There are no user accounts.

Data We Do Not Collect

SipStreak does not collect, transmit, or store any of the following:

• Personal identifiers (name, email, phone)
• Location data
• Contacts or calendar data
• Browsing history
• Crash logs or diagnostics
• Advertising identifiers (IDFA)
• Analytics or usage telemetry

Third-Party Services

SipStreak does not integrate any other third-party SDKs, analytics services, or advertising networks.

Data Retention

All data is stored locally on your device and retained until you explicitly clear it within the app or uninstall the app. There is no server-side retention because there is no server.

Data Deletion

You can delete all app data at any time:

• In-app: Open Settings and use the "Clear All Data" button in the Danger Zone section. This permanently removes all water entries, streak records, and user profile data.
• Uninstall: Removing SipStreak from your device deletes all locally stored data (SwiftData database and UserDefaults).
• HealthKit: Water intake entries written to Apple Health persist independently. To remove them, open the Apple Health app and delete the entries manually.

Your Rights

For All Users

You may:

• Access your data by viewing your water entries, streaks, and settings within the app.
• Delete your data at any time using Settings > Danger Zone > Clear All Data, which permanently removes all water entries, streak records, and user profile data from the device.

European Economic Area (GDPR)

If you are located in the EEA, you have the following rights under the General Data Protection Regulation:

• Right to access (Art. 15): request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
• Right to rectification (Art. 16): request correction of inaccurate data.
• Right to erasure (Art. 17): request deletion of your data ("right to be forgotten").
• Right to restrict processing (Art. 18): request that we limit how we use your data.
• Right to data portability (Art. 20): request a machine-readable copy of your data.
• Right to object (Art. 21): object to processing of your data for certain purposes.

Since SipStreak stores all data locally on your device with no backend, no advertising SDK, and no analytics, you already have direct and complete control over your data. Use Settings > Danger Zone > Clear All Data to exercise your right to erasure. HealthKit entries must be removed separately via the Apple Health app.

Data Protection Contact: SipStreak is developed by an individual developer. Under GDPR Article 37, a Data Protection Officer is not required for organizations of this nature and scale. For all data protection inquiries, contact [email protected]. We will respond within 30 days.

California (CCPA)

If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act gives you:

• Right to know: what personal information is collected and how it is used.
• Right to delete: request deletion of your personal information.
• Right to opt-out of sale/sharing: opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information.
• Right to non-discrimination: equal service regardless of whether you exercise your privacy rights.

SipStreak does not sell or share your personal information. The app contains no advertising SDK, no analytics, and no tracking. All data remains on your device.

To exercise any CCPA rights, contact us at [email protected].

Children's Privacy

SipStreak is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we discover that a child under 13 has somehow provided personal information, we will delete it promptly.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy to reflect changes in the app or in applicable regulations. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
