DreamCue Privacy Policy
Summary
- Your dream journal and practice data stay on your device.
- DreamCue has no account, no ads, no third-party analytics or tracking, and no servers of its own. The app does not send your data over the internet.
- Apple Health access is optional. DreamCue only reads it, unless you turn on saving practice sessions as mindful minutes.
- You can export or delete your data at any time.
Data stored on your device
To work, DreamCue stores the following locally on your iPhone and, if you use it, your Apple Watch:
- Dream journal entries and morning entries (dream text, recall, lucidity, sleep quality, mood, and how the cue felt).
- Your sleep times, cue settings, night plans, and a log of cues played.
- Your answers to the in-app safety check, which decide whether practice and cues are turned on.
- If you turn on research mode, the randomized condition for each night.
This data is not sent to us or to anyone else. A small summary (such as tonight's plan) is shared between the app and its widgets on the same device so the widgets can display it.
Apple Health (HealthKit)
Connecting Apple Health is optional. With your permission, DreamCue reads sleep analysis, heart rate, heart rate variability, and respiratory rate. It uses this only to estimate better cue timing for future nights and to show you summaries. If you turn on “Save practice as mindful minutes”, DreamCue writes the start and end time of each finished practice to Apple Health as a mindful session. It writes nothing else.
Health data is never used for advertising or marketing, never sold, and never shared with third parties. It does not leave your device through DreamCue. You can revoke access at any time in the Health app or in Settings > Privacy & Security > Health.
Notifications, alarms, and Live Activities
Reality-check reminders, the bedtime reminder, and late-night cues are local notifications scheduled on your device. The wake-up and wake-back-to-bed alarms you turn on are set with the system's alarm feature (AlarmKit), and tonight's cue window can appear on your Lock Screen as a Live Activity. All of this runs on your device. No push server is involved.
Voice dream notes
If you record a dream by voice, DreamCue uses the microphone only while you are recording. Your speech is turned into text on your iPhone with Apple's on-device speech recognition; if your language isn't supported on the device, DreamCue tells you instead of sending audio anywhere. The audio is not saved. Only the text you keep is stored, in your journal on the device.
Backup and restore
You can create a backup file of your journal, including dream text, from Settings. The file is only created when you ask, and you choose where it goes (for example, your own iCloud Drive through the Files app). Restoring adds the entries from a backup file you pick.
Apple Watch
If you use the Apple Watch app, cue settings and tonight's plan are synced between your iPhone and your paired Apple Watch using Apple's device-to-device connection. Nothing is sent to us.
Export and deletion
You can export your data as JSON or CSV from Settings. Export only happens when you start it, and you choose where the file goes. Dream text is included only if you choose to include it. "Delete Local Data" in Settings removes your journal, morning entries, and imported sleep data from the device. Deleting the app also removes its data.
What we do not collect
We do not collect your name, email address, location, contacts, photos, microphone audio (voice notes never leave your device), advertising identifier, or browsing activity. DreamCue contains no third-party SDKs for analytics, advertising, or crash reporting.
Purchases
DreamCue is sold through the App Store. Apple processes the payment; we do not receive your payment details.
Apple services and device settings
Like other apps, DreamCue's local data may be included in your device backups (for example, iCloud Backup) according to your own settings. If you choose to share crash and usage data with app developers in iOS settings, Apple may provide us with anonymized crash reports.
Health and safety
DreamCue is a practice tool, not a medical device. It does not detect dreams or REM sleep, does not diagnose sleep disorders, and does not guarantee lucid dreams.
Children
DreamCue is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect any personal information from anyone.
Changes
If this policy changes, we will update this page and its effective date.

DreamCue 隱私權政策
重點摘要
- 你的夢境日記與練習資料只存在你的裝置上。
- DreamCue 不用註冊帳號、沒有廣告、不使用第三方分析或追蹤工具，也沒有自己的伺服器。App 不會透過網路傳送你的資料。
- 連接「健康」App 完全由你決定。DreamCue 只讀取資料；只有你開啟「把練習存成正念分鐘數」時，才會寫入練習時間。
- 你隨時可以匯出或刪除自己的資料。
存在裝置上的資料
為了正常運作，DreamCue 會在你的 iPhone（以及你使用的 Apple Watch）上保存：
- 夢境日記與晨間紀錄（夢境內容、夢境記憶、清醒度、睡眠品質、心情，以及提示聽起來如何）。
- 睡眠時間、提示設定、每晚計畫，以及播放過的提示紀錄。
- App 內安全確認的回答，用來決定是否開啟練習與提示。
- 若開啟研究模式，每晚隨機分配的條件。
這些資料不會傳給我們，也不會傳給任何人。為了讓小工具顯示內容，App 會在同一台裝置上與自己的小工具共用一份簡短摘要（例如今晚的計畫）。
「健康」App（HealthKit）
連接「健康」App 是選擇性的。經你同意後，DreamCue 會讀取睡眠分析、心率、心率變異度與呼吸速率，只用來估算之後幾晚更合適的提示時間，並顯示摘要給你看。如果你開啟「把練習存成正念分鐘數」，DreamCue 會把每次完成練習的開始與結束時間，寫入「健康」App 成為正念時段；除此之外不寫入任何資料。
健康資料絕不用於廣告或行銷、絕不出售，也絕不提供給第三方，更不會經由 DreamCue 離開你的裝置。你隨時可以在「健康」App，或「設定」>「隱私權與安全性」>「健康」撤銷權限。
通知、鬧鐘與即時動態
現實檢查提醒、睡前提醒與夜間提示，都是在你的裝置上排定的本機通知。你開啟的起床鬧鐘與醒後回睡鬧鐘，是透過系統的鬧鐘功能（AlarmKit）設定；今晚的提示時段也可以用即時動態顯示在鎖定畫面。這些都在你的裝置上執行，不經過任何推播伺服器。
語音夢境紀錄
如果你用說的記錄夢境，DreamCue 只在錄音時使用麥克風。你的語音會透過 Apple 的裝置端語音辨識，在 iPhone 上轉成文字；如果你的語言不支援裝置端辨識，DreamCue 會直接告訴你，不會把聲音傳到別處。錄音不會保存，只有你留下的文字會存進裝置上的日記。
備份與還原
你可以在「設定」建立日記的備份檔，內容包含夢境文字。備份檔只會在你操作時建立，要存到哪裡由你決定（例如透過「檔案」App 存到你自己的 iCloud 雲碟）。還原時，會加入你選擇的備份檔裡的紀錄。
Apple Watch
若你使用 Apple Watch App，提示設定與今晚計畫會透過 Apple 的裝置間連線，在你的 iPhone 和配對的 Apple Watch 之間同步，不會傳給我們。
匯出與刪除
你可以在「設定」中把資料匯出成 JSON 或 CSV。匯出只會在你主動操作時發生，檔案要存到哪裡由你決定；夢境內容只有在你選擇時才會包含在內。「設定」中的「刪除本機資料」會從裝置移除日記、晨間紀錄與匯入的睡眠資料。刪除 App 也會一併移除它的資料。
我們不收集的資料
我們不收集你的姓名、電子郵件、位置、聯絡人、照片、麥克風聲音（語音紀錄不會離開你的裝置）、廣告識別碼或瀏覽紀錄。DreamCue 不含任何用於分析、廣告或當機回報的第三方 SDK。
購買
DreamCue 透過 App Store 販售，付款由 Apple 處理，我們不會取得你的付款資訊。
Apple 服務與裝置設定
和其他 App 一樣，DreamCue 的本機資料可能會依你自己的設定包含在裝置備份中（例如 iCloud 備份）。如果你在 iOS 設定中選擇與 App 開發者分享當機與使用資料，Apple 可能會提供匿名的當機報告給我們。
健康與安全
DreamCue 是練習工具，不是醫療器材。它無法偵測夢境或 REM 睡眠，不能診斷睡眠障礙，也不保證一定會做清醒夢。
兒童
DreamCue 不以 13 歲以下兒童為對象，我們也不會在知情下收集任何人的個人資料。
政策更新
若本政策有所變更，我們會更新此頁與生效日期。
