Privacy policy
Effective November 11, 2026
This policy explains which personal data the Oria app and this website process, why, for how long, and what rights you have. In short:
- Oria needs an account. Your account and everything you create in Oria are kept on your phone and on our server in the EU (Ireland), so they’re on all your phones and stay with you when you change phones.
- No ads, no tracking, no analytics, and we don’t sell your data.
- Your data is encrypted on its way to our server and while stored there, but not end to end: we, and our server provider on our behalf, can technically read it. We only look at it when running Oria requires it, for example to find and fix errors.
- You can delete your account at any time and get a copy of your data at any time: in the app while you have no active subscription, otherwise by emailing us.
1. Who is responsible
The controller under the GDPR is:
Konstandin Sargsyan, Visora Studios
Oberacherner Str. 94, 77855 Achern, Germany
Email: hello@visorastudios.com
Phone: +49 155 60776702
For anything about your data, write to us at the address above.
2. Your account and logging in
You need an account to use Oria. It lets you keep your data when you change phones and use Oria on more than one.
- With your email: we store your email address. Each time you log in, we email you a six-digit code, sent from hello@visorastudios.com through our email provider. A code works once and for at most an hour.
- With Apple: Apple tells us a user ID that is unique to Oria and your email address, or a relay address if you choose to hide yours. Oria doesn’t ask Apple for your name. To be able to end the Apple sign-in when you delete your account, we keep a token from Apple for as long as the account exists, and after you delete it only until Apple confirms the revocation.
- With Google: Google tells us your Google account ID, your email address, your name and a link to your profile picture. We store them with your login details; Oria doesn’t show or use your Google name or picture.
- For each phone you’re logged in on, our server keeps a login session with the time, the phone’s IP address and the app’s technical client name, until you log out on that phone or delete your account.
- Server logs. Our server provider logs each request from Oria with the time, your IP address, an approximate location it derives from that address (such as the city) and your account’s random ID. The logs are deleted automatically after a short time, currently after at most seven days.
We use this data to create your account, log you in and keep the account secure. Legal basis: our contract with you (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR) and, for securing logins and the logs, our legitimate interest in protecting accounts from misuse and finding errors (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). We keep your account data until you delete your account.
3. What you create in Oria
Oria stores what you create and choose in the app:
- tasks and lists, with times, sections and reminders
- routines and habits, with their schedules, check-ins and pauses
- focus sessions: when they started and ended, how long you focused, and the tasks in them
- Daily Clear entries: what you write, and the tasks you create from an entry
- your profile: name, profile photo and color, orbs, rank and focus points, and the orbs you buy with points
- your settings, such as list layout and week start
- if you answer it during setup, how you heard about Oria (for example “a friend”, plus your own words if you choose “somewhere else”)
All of it is saved on your phone first and then synced to our server, so it’s the same on all your phones. Before a profile photo is uploaded, Oria removes its metadata, such as where it was taken.
Who can see it. Your data travels encrypted (TLS) and is stored encrypted on our server provider’s disks. It is not end-to-end encrypted, so we, as operator, and our server provider, under our instructions, can access it. We look at your data when running Oria requires it: for example to find and fix errors, to repair or restore your data, or to answer your questions. When we do, we keep to the data we need for it as far as possible and use it only for that purpose. Legal basis: our contract with you (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR) and our legitimate interest in an app that works without errors (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Apart from us and the providers named in section 9, we give no one access to your data unless the law requires us to.
Personal notes. What you write in Daily Clear can be very personal. You decide what you write. As with everything else in Oria, we process it only to store it, sync it between your phones and keep Oria working; we don’t analyze it or use it for advertising, and we share it only with the recipients named in section 9.
Deleting things. When you delete something in Oria, it disappears from all your phones, and its content is deleted from our server. So that your other phones delete it too, our server keeps a deletion marker with technical details: the item’s ID, when it was deleted and a random ID of the phone, for some entries, such as habit check-ins, also a date, and for focus points, rank and orbs their values. Focus sessions keep the titles of the tasks you worked on, and Daily Clear entries the titles of the tasks you created from them, even after you delete those tasks. The markers are deleted with your account.
Legal basis: our contract with you (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR). We keep your content until you delete it or your account. Your answer on how you heard about Oria is optional. We use it to learn which ways of finding Oria work, which is our legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR); if you object, we delete it.
4. Your subscription
You buy Oria Pro in the App Store or on Google Play. Apple or Google take the payment and see your payment details; we don’t. Apple and Google process your data for the purchase as controllers in their own right, under their own privacy policies.
So that Oria knows whether your subscription is active, we use the subscription service RevenueCat. Each time Oria opens, and when you buy or restore a subscription, RevenueCat receives your account’s random ID, your email address, the store’s records of your purchases (such as the plan, dates and price) and technical details: your phone’s model and system, the app version, your languages and your store’s country, and on iPhone the identifier Apple gives the apps of one developer. According to RevenueCat, it uses your IP address only to tell which country you’re in and doesn’t keep it. Legal basis: our contract with you (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR). We give RevenueCat your email address so we can match purchases to your account when you contact our support, for example about a refund; for that, the legal basis is our legitimate interest in working customer support (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). After a purchase, our server asks RevenueCat, using your account’s ID, whether it was an App Store or Google Play purchase. This is how Oria’s first 20 customers get the Rainbow orb. For this we keep your account’s ID, the time and a one-way short form of your purchase (a hash) until you delete your account; after that only the time. Here too, the legal basis is our contract with you (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR). When you delete your account, we also have your record at RevenueCat deleted.
5. On your phone
- Reminders. Reminders for tasks, routines and habits are scheduled on your phone. Their content isn’t sent to any push service. On Android, a notification shows a running focus session. Notifications appear only as far as your phone allows them for Oria; where the system asks, Oria asks for your permission first. You can turn them off in your phone’s settings at any time. Legal basis: our contract with you (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR).
- Profile photo. Oria only gets the photo you pick from your library.
- Data export. If you export your data, Oria creates the files on your phone and hands them to your phone’s share sheet. We don’t receive them.
- Storage on your phone. Oria saves your data, your settings, your login session and a copy of your profile photo on your phone. This is strictly necessary for the app you chose to use, so it needs no consent (§ 25(2) no. 2 TDDDG). Oria deletes it when you log out or delete your account, and it’s gone when you uninstall Oria.
6. Email, Report a Bug and support
Report a Bug opens an email draft to hello@visorastudios.com in your mail app. It already contains the app version, your phone’s system version and your account’s email address, so we can answer without asking. You see everything before you send it, and you decide whether to send it.
When you email us, we use your email address, your message and anything you attach to answer you. Legal basis: our contract with you, where your question is about it (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR), and otherwise our legitimate interest in answering messages (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). We delete your emails when we no longer need them for your request and any follow-up questions, unless the law requires us to keep them. If you ask us to delete your account, we keep that request and our reply for three years as proof. Legal basis: our legitimate interest in being able to prove the deletion and to defend ourselves against claims (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
7. Update check
If Oria can’t start, it checks whether a newer version is out that might fix the problem, so it can tell you. On iPhone, it asks Apple’s public App Store lookup, sending Oria’s app ID and your phone’s region; Apple receives your IP address. On Android, Oria asks the Google Play app on your phone. Legal basis: our legitimate interest in pointing you to an update that can get Oria working again (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
8. This website
Our host Cloudflare delivers this website. When you open a page, Cloudflare’s servers process your IP address, the page you asked for, the time, and what your browser sends along, such as its type and the page you came from. This is needed to deliver the page and to protect the site from attacks. Legal basis: our legitimate interest in a secure, working website (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Cloudflare keeps this data only as long as it needs to for that. We keep no access logs of this website ourselves.
This website sets no cookies of its own and uses no analytics, tracking or external content. Its fonts are served from this site itself. Only if Cloudflare finds a request suspicious and shows a security check does it remember the passed check in a strictly necessary cookie (cf_clearance), so the check isn’t repeated. That’s why you see no cookie banner.
9. Who processes your data
These providers process data on our behalf and only as we instruct them, under a data processing agreement (Art. 28 GDPR):
- Supabase Pte. Ltd. (Singapore) runs our server: it stores your account and synced data and handles logging in. Your data is stored in the EU, in Ireland, at Amazon Web Services. Supabase’s support and operations teams work around the world, including in Singapore and the USA, and can access it where their work requires it; files such as profile photos can be delivered through a worldwide network of servers.
- RevenueCat, Inc. (USA) checks your subscription and stores its data in the USA.
- IONOS SE (Montabaur, Germany) hosts our email in Germany, including the login codes and the emails you send us.
- Cloudflare, Inc. (USA) delivers this website through servers around the world.
These providers are bound by contract to protect your data at least as this policy describes.
These receive data as controllers in their own right, under their own privacy policies:
- Apple (Apple Distribution International Ltd., Ireland) for purchases in the App Store, Sign in with Apple and the update check on iPhone.
- Google (Google Ireland Limited) for purchases on Google Play, Sign in with Google and the update check on Android.
We pass on data to authorities only where the law obliges us to. We don’t sell your data or share it for advertising.
Where your data goes. Our server stores your data in Ireland, and our email provider in Germany. RevenueCat stores subscription data in the USA. Supabase’s support and operations staff, in Singapore, the USA and other countries, can access data where their work requires it. Cloudflare, and Supabase for files such as profile photos, deliver content through servers worldwide.
Where data reaches a country outside the EU, it is protected like this: Singapore has no EU adequacy decision, and the USA has one only for companies certified under the EU–US Data Privacy Framework. So Supabase and RevenueCat have agreed to the EU standard contractual clauses with us (Art. 46(2)(c) GDPR). Cloudflare is certified under the Data Privacy Framework (Art. 45 GDPR); the standard contractual clauses apply if that adequacy decision ever ends. For people in Switzerland and the UK, the Swiss and UK versions of these safeguards apply. You can ask us for a copy of these safeguards.
10. How long we keep your data
- Your account and everything in it: until you delete your account.
- Login sessions: until you log out on that phone or delete your account.
- Codes we email you (logging in, changing your email, deleting your account): valid for at most an hour; an unused code’s technical record is kept until your account is deleted at the latest.
- Your record at RevenueCat: until you delete your account, when we have it deleted.
- If deleting your record at RevenueCat or revoking Apple’s sign-in fails: your account’s ID, and for Apple the token, until it succeeds; we retry every hour.
- After you delete your account: its ID and the time of deletion, for at most eight days, so the deletion still holds if we have to restore a backup (Art. 6(1)(c) with Art. 17 GDPR).
- Logs our server provider keeps for us, and technical sign-in records: currently at most seven days.
- Backups of our database: at most seven days.
- What Cloudflare processes when it delivers this website: only as long as it needs to for delivering it and protecting it from attacks.
- Emails with us: until we no longer need them for your request; deletion requests for three years.
- What Apple and Google keep about your purchases: under their own rules.
How deleting your account works, and what happens with what, is explained on Delete your Oria account.
11. Your rights
You have the right to:
- know which data we have about you and get a copy (Art. 15 GDPR)
- have wrong data corrected (Art. 16 GDPR)
- have your data deleted (Art. 17 GDPR)
- have its processing restricted (Art. 18 GDPR)
- receive your data in a common, machine-readable format (Art. 20 GDPR)
- withdraw a consent at any time, for the future (Art. 7(3) GDPR)
You can delete your account in Oria at any time under Profile. While you have no active subscription, Export data is in the small print of the subscription screen; the export holds your tasks, lists, routines, habits, focus sessions and Daily Clear entries. For a complete copy of everything we hold about you (Art. 15(3) GDPR), with or without a subscription, and for everything else, email us at hello@visorastudios.com.
You can also complain to a data protection authority (Art. 77 GDPR), in particular in the EU country where you live or work. The authority responsible for us is the Landesbeauftragte für den Datenschutz und die Informationsfreiheit Baden-Württemberg (www.baden-wuerttemberg.datenschutz.de).
Your right to object
Where we process your data based on our legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR), you have the right to object at any time, for reasons arising from your particular situation (Art. 21(1) GDPR). We then stop, unless we can show compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests, rights and freedoms, or we need the data to establish, exercise or defend legal claims. To object, write to hello@visorastudios.com.
12. Anything else
- What you have to give us. To use Oria you need an account with an email address, or an Apple or Google login; without one, Oria can’t keep your data or sell you a subscription. Everything else, like your name, photo or how you heard about Oria, is up to you.
- No automated decisions. We make no decisions based solely on automated processing that have legal or similarly significant effects on you (Art. 22 GDPR).
- Do Not Track. Neither Oria nor this website tracks your activity across other apps or websites over time, and we let no other company do so through Oria or this website; Apple and Google receive only what section 9 describes. We therefore don’t treat browser signals such as “Do Not Track” or Global Privacy Control differently: there is no tracking for them to switch off.
- Age. Oria is meant for people aged 16 and over and isn’t directed at children. If we learn that someone under 16 has an account, we delete it.
- Changes. When Oria or the law changes, we update this policy and the date at the top. If a change matters for you, we’ll let you know in a suitable way, for example in the app or by email.
