Privacy & Terms

Last updated: August 2026

Privacy Policy

Silver Rising is a personal app for reflection and journaling. Here's how your information is handled:

What's stored on your device: Your journal entries, reflections, and listening history are stored locally on your own device using standard iOS storage. They are not uploaded to or stored on any server operated by Silver Rising.

What's sent to Claude (Anthropic): When you submit a journal reflection, ask "What I Notice" to look for patterns, request a "Looking Back" retrospective, or generate a custom song, the relevant text you've written is sent to Anthropic's Claude API to generate a response. This is the only third-party service this app communicates with. Anthropic's own privacy practices govern how they handle that data; you can review their policies at anthropic.com/privacy.

What's not collected: This app does not use analytics, tracking, or advertising services. There are no ads. Your data is not sold or shared with any third party other than the Anthropic API calls described above, which are required for the app's core reflection features to work.

Your control: Since your journal data lives on your device, deleting the app removes your data. There is currently no cloud backup, so uninstalling the app or losing your device without a personal backup means your entries cannot be recovered.

Contact: If you have questions about privacy, reach out at [email protected].

Terms of Use

By using Silver Rising, you agree to the following:

Personal use: This app is intended for personal reflection and journaling. It is not a substitute for professional medical, psychological, or therapeutic care. If you are experiencing a mental health crisis, please contact a licensed professional or emergency services.

No guarantees: Reflections, insights, and songs generated within this app are created by an AI system (Claude, by Anthropic) and are offered for personal reflection only. They are not professional advice of any kind, and Silver Rising makes no guarantees about their accuracy or suitability for any particular purpose.

Your content: The journal entries you write remain yours. The songs and lyrics included in this app are original works created by the app's developer and are provided for use within this app.

Use at your own risk: This app is provided "as is," without warranty of any kind. The developer is not liable for any damages arising from use of the app.

Changes: These terms may be updated from time to time. Continued use of the app after changes means you accept the updated terms.

Contact: Questions about these terms can be sent to [email protected].
