Privacy Policy
Last Updated:
1. Introduction
Kiwimama ("the App") is designed to provide users with a simple, calm, and effective way to track contractions during labour. We respect your privacy and are committed to being transparent about how your data is handled.
⚠️ 2. IMPORTANT: Medical Disclaimer
Kiwimama is NOT a medical device. The App provides tracking and statistics for informational purposes ONLY.
It does NOT provide medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, guidance, or physician-validated recommendations. All decisions made based on the data provided by the App are the sole responsibility of the user.
You should ALWAYS consult with a qualified healthcare professional (doctor, midwife, or emergency services) for any medical concerns or during the course of labour. Do not delay seeking medical advice because of information tracked in this App.
3. Data Collection and Usage
Local Storage
All contraction data you input is stored locally on your device. Kiwimama does not upload your personal health data to our servers. Your rhythm, timing, and history remain under your direct control.
Personal Information
We do not require account creation, email registration, or any personally identifiable information (PII) to use the App. We believe your labour journey is your own.
Anonymous Analytics
We may collect anonymous, aggregated usage statistics (e.g., "button A was clicked") to help us improve the App's stability and design. These metrics cannot be linked back to you or your specific health data.
4. Data Sharing
Because your data is stored locally, we do not sell, trade, or share your individual contraction records with third parties. If you choose to share your statistics with a midwife or birth partner, you do so using your device's native sharing capabilities.
5. Your Responsibility
By using Kiwimama, you acknowledge that you are responsible for monitoring your own physical state and safety. The App acts as a recording tool only. Kiwimama and its developers are not liable for any outcomes, medical complications, or decisions made during your pregnancy or labour.
6. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in the App or legal requirements. We encourage you to review this page periodically. Continued use of the App constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
