🙋🏻Who We Are

Hey folks - we are the makers of Sunrise, the most healing journaling app.

Our mission is to create the safest digital space to reflect and relax. As Sunrise users ourselves, we also express our feelings, process our emotions and offload our worries on our app every day. We understand that all this requires data security, which is why we view it as mission-critical.

Let us walk you through our safety framework before we go over our official privacy policy.

🔒How are journal entries saved?

Your entries are stored locally on your phone, unless you request otherwise.

Why This Matters: we do not store your entries in our servers, so we cannot read them - only you can.

Yes, but: some users worry about losing their entries if they either lose their phone or get a new one. For such cases, we offer multiple solutions for our premium users.

  1. Bulk Export: you can bulk export your entries as TXT file. This option is suitable for simple archiving purposes.
  2. Back Up & Restore: you can backup your entries as a JSON file in a location of your choice (Google Drive, iCloud, etc.) and then restore them in the Sunrise app on another device. This option allows you to handle your data without using our servers.
  3. Cloud Sync: you can save your entries on our servers. Your entries are secured with AES-256 encryption before storage. Only you can read them using your personal encryption key, which you can store n a location of your choice (local, Google Drive, iCloud). This option is suitable for those who value cross-platform journals, since it also automatically saves and updates your entries in real-time.
