Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 27, 2026
HoneyCues ("we," "us") is a private app for couples that turns your cycle into a playful, private signal for the two of you. This policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, who can see it, and the choices available to you. It applies to everyone who uses the HoneyCues app and our website, honeycues.com.
Information we collect
To provide HoneyCues, we collect:
- Account information — your email address, your name and the account identifier we assign you (our subscription provider also uses it to match your purchases), managed through our authentication system.
- Profile details — your name and your age, if you choose to give them, used to personalize your experience and confirm you meet our minimum age. We keep the year you were born, not a full date of birth.
- Cycle information — the dates you log, your typical cycle and period length, and whether your cycle is regular, used to generate your private estimates.
- Partner-pairing information — your partner's name and email address when you send an invite, and the status of that invite.
- Private signals — the messages you send to your paired partner, the cycle context at the time, and any reply your partner sends back.
- Your preferences — your notification and sharing settings.
- Subscription and purchase information — if you subscribe to HoneyCues Premium, we receive your subscription status, plan, and purchase history from the app store and our payment provider. We never receive your card number or other payment details — those are handled entirely by Apple or Google.
- Notification device information — if you turn on notifications, the push token for that phone plus its platform, model name, app version, language and time zone. The time zone is what lets a cycle reminder arrive in the morning where you are instead of the middle of the night. This information is deleted when you sign out on that phone, and with your account.
- Your private diary — if you use it, the days you log intimate moments, plus the details you add (the kind of moment, how much you enjoyed it, who made the first move, how you felt afterwards, protection used and a private note). Your partner never sees any of it.
- Security records — when you create your account, verify your email, reset your password, pair with or leave your partner, change certain privacy settings or delete your account, we may record the IP address and the app or browser identifier (user agent) of that request, to protect your account and prevent fraud and abuse.
- Activity information — when you last signed in and last used the app, the days on which you used it, and whether you opened one of our notifications or tapped the button in one of our idea emails. It keeps your session working and lets us count, in aggregate, how many people use HoneyCues and which of our suggestions are useful. It never records what you did in the app.
- Crash and error reports — if the app crashes or runs into an error, it sends us a technical report so we can find and fix the problem: where in the code it failed (the stack trace), technical details such as your phone's model, its operating system and app version, which app update you were running, and the account identifier we assign you. Reports never include screenshots, your email address, your name, or your cycle, diary or signal information, and sign-in tokens and email addresses are removed before a report leaves your phone. They go only to our own error-tracking server, hosted with the rest of HoneyCues — never to an outside analytics company.
- Creator code — if you enter a creator's code in the app (or, on Android, install the app from a creator's link, which the Play Store tells the app), we record which creator recommended HoneyCues to you, so we can pay them a share of what you pay for Premium. The creator sees totals (how many people signed up and how many pay) and a list of the commissioned payments (date, plan and amount), never who you are. If you visit a creator's page on our website, we count the visit without cookies or any information about you.
The HoneyCues app does not use advertising identifiers or send anything to third-party analytics, crash-reporting or tracking services. The only usage information we keep from the app is the activity information described above, and we look at it only as totals. Our website is different only in the way described in “Our website and the Meta Pixel” below.
Your cycle and reproductive information
We treat your cycle and period information with particular care because it relates to your reproductive health. We use it to generate the private estimates and signals the app is built around, and to time the occasional suggestion notification (see below). We collect it directly from you, never from other sources. The same care applies to your private diary. It is never used for advertising, never shared with third parties, and never sold. HoneyCues shows gentle estimates, not medical facts — see "Not medical advice" in our Terms of Service.
How we use your information
- To create and operate your account, and to sign you in securely.
- To calculate your private cycle estimates and generate your signals.
- To deliver invites and pairing between you and your partner.
- To send account-related emails, such as email verification codes and partner invites.
- To keep the app secure, prevent abuse, and respond to support requests.
- To send occasional “Ideas & suggestions” notifications timed to your cycle estimates — to you, and to your partner only if you share your estimates with him. They never show a cycle fact, a date or anything private on the lock screen, and you can turn them off at any time in the app (Privacy, “Ideas & suggestions”). The same ideas may also come by email; every one of those emails has a one-tap unsubscribe link, and you can turn them off in the app (Privacy, “Ideas by email”). Account emails, such as sign-in links and password resets, are not affected. The days in your private diary are used for this only if you also switch on “Let HoneyCues suggest ideas for us”.
Our legal basis for processing (EEA/UK users)
Where the GDPR or UK GDPR applies, we rely on: performance of a contract, to provide the app you signed up for; your explicit consent, for the cycle and reproductive information you choose to share; and our legitimate interest, to keep the service secure and working properly. You may withdraw consent at any time by deleting your account, as described below.
Who can see your information
Your information is private by default. Your paired partner can see the signals you choose to send and whether they have been read — nothing more, and a suggestion notification never tells either of you anything about the other's cycle or diary. If you switch on “Let HoneyCues suggest ideas for us”, HoneyCues also uses your cycle estimates, the days you logged in your diary and a 30-day summary of how they went (average hearts, who made the first move, how you felt) to tailor those suggestions — never your notes, the kind of moment or protection — and switching it off stops it immediately. We do not share your information with other users, advertisers, data brokers, or any third party for marketing purposes, and we never sell personal information. The only exception is the optional website measurement described in “Our website and the Meta Pixel”, which runs only if you accept it and never involves anything from the app.
Service providers we use
A small number of specialized providers help us run HoneyCues, processing only what they need under our instructions:
- Our identity provider, to authenticate you securely and manage sign-in.
- Our cloud database and storage provider, to host the app's data.
- Our email provider, to deliver account emails such as verification codes and partner invites, and the idea and tip emails you can turn off in the app (“Ideas by email”).
- Our subscription management provider, to process app-store purchases and keep your Premium status up to date.
None of these providers is an advertising network or analytics platform, and the app does not include third-party tracking or advertising SDKs. Crash and error reports are handled on our own servers, not by an outside provider.
Our website and the Meta Pixel
Our website, honeycues.com, can use the Meta Pixel, an advertising measurement tool from Meta Platforms, Inc., but only after you accept it in the banner shown on your first visit. If you accept, your browser tells Meta which of our pages you visited and whether you tapped an App Store or Google Play button, together with technical data such as your IP address, browser details and Meta cookies. Meta may link this to your Meta account, and we use it to measure and show HoneyCues ads, which can count as “sharing” for targeted advertising under some US state laws. The Pixel never runs inside the app and never receives your cycle, signals, diary, partner or account details. If you decline, or your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, the Pixel is not loaded at all. You can change your choice at any time with “Cookie settings” at the bottom of every page. Meta handles this data under its own Privacy Policy.
Where your information is processed
HoneyCues runs on cloud infrastructure that may process and store your information outside your own country, including in the United States. Wherever your information is processed, we apply the same protections described in this policy.
How long we keep your information
We keep your information for as long as your account remains active, so the app keeps working the way you expect. If you delete your account, your account and the personal data tied to it — including your cycle information, signals, and partner-pairing details — are permanently deleted from our active systems. Limited records that we are required to keep for security or legal reasons may be retained for a short additional period where the law requires it. If you have or have had a subscription, we (and our payment provider) also keep limited billing and transaction records for as long as accounting, tax, or fraud-prevention rules require, even after your account is deleted. Copies of the emails we send you (for example invites and signal notifications) are kept encrypted for up to 30 days so we can troubleshoot delivery, and are then deleted automatically; sign-in codes and passwords are never kept in these copies. A short record that an email was sent — its type, date, address and delivery status — is kept for 12 months, and is deleted with your account. Crash and error reports are kept for up to 90 days and then deleted automatically, including when you delete your account before then. The record of the days you used the app is kept for up to 400 days, and is deleted with your account.
Your privacy rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
- Access the personal information we hold about you.
- Correct inaccurate or incomplete information.
- Delete your account and the personal information tied to it.
- Object to or restrict certain processing, and withdraw consent previously given.
- Request a copy of your information in a portable format.
We do not sell personal information, so there is no sale to opt out of. To exercise any of these rights, use the in-app options described below, or contact us — see "Contact us."
Deleting your account
You can permanently delete your account at any time from within the app (Us → Privacy & account → Delete account; partners: Account → Delete account). This removes your account and the personal data tied to it, including your cycle information, private signals, and partner pairing. You can also unpair from your partner at any time without deleting your account. Deleting your account does not, by itself, cancel an active App Store or Google Play subscription — cancel that separately in your device's account settings to stop future charges. If you prefer not to use the in-app option, contact us using the details below and we will take care of it.
How we protect your information
- All traffic to and from the app is encrypted in transit (HTTPS/TLS).
- We never store your password — sign-in is handled by our dedicated identity system, and we only ever see a verified token, not your credentials.
- Access to your data is restricted to what each part of our system needs to do its job, and every request is checked against your account before it is allowed through.
Children's privacy
HoneyCues is intended for adults 18 years of age and older and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can delete it.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time as HoneyCues evolves. When we do, we will update the "last updated" date at the top of this page, and if a change is significant, we will let you know through the app.
