Your nights are yours.

The short version

• You can use the app without making an account or giving your name or email.
• Your log lives on your phone first. A copy syncs to our database so it survives a lost or new phone.
• There are no ads and no third-party tracking or advertising code in the app.
• You can delete everything from inside the app, at any time.

What the app keeps

Your log

The nights you plan and log: each drink and water with its time, type and size; the plan you set (your number for the night, pace, last call, ride home); your Night Score; the morning check-in (a mood and any tags you pick); badges you earn; and your weekly budget.

Your settings

A display name if you choose one, your Pourie's colour and accessory, units and currency, your own custom drinks, and reminder choices.

An account identifier

When you first open the app it creates an anonymous account: a random identifier with no name, email or phone number attached. It exists so your log can sync. If you join a Crew you sign in with Apple, and Apple gives us an identifier for you and, if you allow it, an email address (which can be Apple's private relay address). We use that only to sign you in.

Where it lives

Your log is stored on your phone. A copy is sent over an encrypted connection to a database hosted by Supabase in the United States, and is encrypted at rest there. Database rules limit each account to its own rows.

What your Crew can see

Crews are optional. People in a Crew with you can see your display name and Pourie, your Night Scores, your badges, your dry nights, and your status in a shared challenge. They never see how many drinks you had. There are no comments and no leaderboards, only kudos.

Apple Health

If you turn it on, Half Pour writes the drinks you log to Apple Health. It does not read anything from Health, and Health data is not sent to our database.

Notifications

Reminders such as last call and water rounds are scheduled on your phone. They are not sent from a server.

What we do not do

• We do not sell or rent your data.
• We do not show ads or share data with advertisers.
• We do not use your log to make decisions about you, and we do not estimate blood alcohol.

Deleting your data

• Delete your account in the app's Settings removes your account and every row tied to it from our database.
• Erase data on this phone in Settings clears the copy on your device.
• Anonymous accounts that have not been used for 90 days are deleted automatically.
