Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 15, 2026 · New Day Industries LLC · WakeStake
The short version
We collect the minimum needed to run alarms with money on them: your account, your alarms and stakes, and a payment method held by Stripe. Your mornings stay on your phone. We don't show third-party ads, we don't sell your data, and we can't see your card number.
01What we collect
- Launch list (this website): if you leave your email address on wakestake.app, we store it with Cloudflare, use it to send one message when WakeStake is in the app stores, then delete it. We never share or sell it. Ask us to remove it sooner at support@wakestake.app.
- Website visits (this website): wakestake.app counts visits with Plausible Analytics, which we host ourselves. It sets no cookies and collects no personal data: only page views, the referring site, and country and device type, in aggregate. It does not run in the app.
- Account: your email address (or Apple/Google sign-in identifier) and authentication state, via Firebase Authentication.
- Alarms and stakes: your alarm schedules, missions, stake amounts, outcomes (completed / missed / charged / refunded), streaks, and appeal requests, stored in Google Firestore.
- Payments: handled by Stripe. Your card details go directly to Stripe; we store only Stripe's customer and payment-method identifiers and charge records. We never see or store your full card number.
- Subscriptions: purchase state via RevenueCat and the app stores, so Pro features unlock on your devices.
- Crash reports: via Firebase Crashlytics (device model, OS version, crash traces), used only to fix bugs.
02What stays on your device
- Camera and motion data: movement missions are verified on your phone. Frames are processed on-device and are not uploaded.
- Proof clips: recordings of your wake-up missions are stored on your device and you can delete them at any time. One exception: for stakes of $50 or more, a short clip is uploaded solely to verify completion and is deleted immediately after verification.
- Your daily intention: written at wake-up, kept on your device.
03Accountability messages
If you choose to add an accountability contact, we use their number solely to send the message you configured when you miss a wake-up. We don't market to them, and you can remove the contact at any time.
04What we don't do
- No third-party advertising in the app, and no sale of personal data. Ever.
- No tracking you across other companies' apps or websites.
- No reading, sharing, or analyzing your proof clips beyond the $50+ verification described above.
05Sharing
Data is shared only with the processors named above (Google Firebase, Stripe, RevenueCat), each acting on our instructions to run the service, and with authorities if the law genuinely requires it. There are no other recipients.
06Retention and deletion
Your data is kept while your account exists. Delete your account in the app (Settings → Account) and any armed stake is cancelled, never charged; your account record, alarms, stake history, receipts and saved card are deleted. We keep an anonymous record of past stakes (amount, outcome, date and the Stripe charge reference, with nothing that names you) for our accounts and to understand how WakeStake is used. Stripe and the app stores keep their own transaction records as financial regulations require. You can also email us to request deletion.
07Children
WakeStake is not directed at children. Money stakes require you to be 18 or older.
08Changes and contact
If this policy changes materially, we'll say so in the app. Questions or requests (access, deletion, complaint): support@wakestake.app.
