Your Data, Your Castle.

At Slumbering Thread Studios, we believe privacy isn't a setting—it's the default state of reality. Here is exactly how Resolve handles your digital life, in plain English.

1. It stays on your device.

Resolve is a "Local First" application. When you track a habit, journal a thought, or log your focus time, that data is saved to a database right there on your phone. We don't have a central server farm reading your diary. It’s your phone, your data. Any data that enters our encrypted backend is sent by you with your full knowledge to your intended recipient.

2. Heavy-Duty Encryption.

We use SQLCipher (industry-standard 256-bit encryption) to lock your database. Even if someone stole your phone's file system, your Resolve data would just look like scrambled noise to them.

3. The Cloud (Only When You Ask).

We use Google Firebase for two specific things, and only if you create an account:

  • Authentication: To verify you are who you say you are (email/password).
  • Backups: If you choose to back up your data, we store an encrypted bundle of it so you can restore it on a new phone. We cannot read the contents of this bundle.

4. Social Features (The "Ally" System).

Resolve has social features, like adding Allies or joining Guilds. These are 100% opt-in.

If you choose to use them, here is what gets shared with your friends:

  • Your Public Profile: Username and Avatar.
  • Generic Stats: Things like "Current Level" or "Total XP".
  • Momentum: Your friends can see that you are working on something, but not necessarily what (unless you explicitly share the details).

These things are kept hidden from users unless you friend them or they friend you, and you never share data unless you approve it. Though it's processed in our backend, we don't claim to own it or look at it (unless for debugging, maintenance, or user-related reasons), we just process it to your recipient and let it go. We do not sell your social graph, your habits, or your soul to advertisers. The only "price" you pay is the purchase price of the app (or the premium unlock).

5. Deletion.

Want out? You can delete your account from the settings menu at any time. This wipes your data from our authentication servers and deletes your cloud backups instantly. The data on your phone is yours to delete or keep as you see fit.

6. Accessibility Services.

Resolve uses the Android Accessibility Services API for one purpose only: to help you fight digital addiction. We use this service to detect scrolling patterns (like 'doomscrolling') and to overlay helpful interventions when you use apps you want to limit.

  • What we see: We can detect which app is open and generic interaction patterns (scrolls, clicks).
  • What we DON'T see: We do not read your passwords, messages, or financial info.
  • Where it goes: Nowhere. Analysis happens in real-time on your phone’s processor. No interaction data is ever sent to our servers.

7. Installed Application Visibility.

To let you block distractions, Resolve needs to know what apps you have on your phone. We use the 'Query All Packages' permission to generate the list of apps you can choose to regulate.

  • Local Processing: This list is generated and displayed to you locally. We do not upload your app list to the cloud, sell it to advertisers, or use it for analytics.
