Privacy Policy
Last updated 7 August 2026 · PulseAI Systems, LLC
The short version. Your dream journal lives on your phone. There is no account, no login, and no copy of your dreams on our servers. We do not sell data, we do not run ads, and we do not track you across apps or websites. The only time anything leaves your device is when you personally tap for an AI interpretation — and even then it is not stored.
What we collect
On your device (never sent to us)
Everything you write and record in Dreamgate is stored in a local database on your phone: dream narratives, dream types, moods, vividness ratings, symbols, tags, bedtime and wake time, sleep quality, energy and stress levels, optional sleep factors, your birth date if you provide one, your goals from onboarding, your statistics, and any audio captured by Night Listener. None of this is transmitted to us. It is protected by your device's own encryption and, if you enable it, by a PIN whose salted hash is the only thing stored.
When you request an AI interpretation
If — and only if — you tap to request a reading, the app sends the text of that one dream, a short slice of recent dream history for context, your chosen language, and the moon phase for that date to our server at getdreamgate.com. Our server forwards it to Google Vertex AI, receives the interpretation, and returns it to your phone. We do not write the dream text to a database and we do not keep it after the response is sent. Google processes it as a service provider under their enterprise terms and does not use it to train models. Your name, email, device identifier and location are never included.
If you join the waitlist
The website waitlist form collects your email address, which is stored with our email provider (Resend) so we can tell you when Dreamgate launches. Nothing else. You can ask us to delete it at any time by writing to support@getdreamgate.com.
Server logs
Like any web server, ours records the IP address and timestamp of requests for a short period so we can rate-limit abuse and keep the service up. These logs are not linked to dream content and are not used to build a profile of you.
What we do not do
- We do not sell or rent your personal information to anyone, for any purpose.
- We do not show advertising, and we do not embed advertising or analytics SDKs in the app.
- We do not track you across other apps or websites.
- We do not require an account, so we do not hold a directory of who our users are.
- We do not read, review or moderate the contents of your journal — we cannot; we do not have it.
Microphone and Night Listener
Night Listener is off by default and must be switched on deliberately. When active, it monitors sound level while your phone is charging beside you and saves only short clips that cross the loudness threshold you set; silence is discarded and never written to disk. Those clips stay on your device, are listed in the app so you can play or delete them individually, and are never uploaded, analysed remotely, or included in an AI interpretation request.
Payments
Subscriptions are processed entirely by Apple's App Store or Google Play. We never see your card number, billing address, or store account. We receive only an anonymous entitlement signal telling the app whether premium is active.
Children
Dreamgate is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them. Some optional content is gated by the age range you select during onboarding.
Your rights
Because your data lives on your device, you exercise most rights directly: export it whenever you like from Settings, and delete all of it instantly from Settings or by uninstalling. For the waitlist email or server logs, write to support@getdreamgate.com and we will action access, correction or deletion requests promptly. If you are in the EEA or UK, our lawful basis for the waitlist is your consent, and for AI interpretation it is performance of the service you requested. If you are in California, we do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined by the CCPA.
Data retention
| Journal, audio, statistics | On your device until you delete them. Never held by us. |
| AI interpretation request | Held in memory for the duration of the request only. Not stored. |
| Waitlist email | Until launch, or until you ask us to remove it. |
| Server logs | A short rolling window for abuse prevention. |
Changes
If we change this policy in a way that materially affects you, we will update the date above and note the change in the app's release notes. We will not start collecting a new category of data without saying so plainly.
