Vita Nova · A private cycle-charting companion

Vita Nova Privacy Policy

Thomistico LLC · Updated October 21, 2026

This policy explains how the Vita Nova mobile app handles information. Vita Nova is published by Thomistico LLC, a Minnesota limited liability company (“Thomistico”, “we”, “us”).

The short version: your chart stays on your device unless you choose to export or share it. RevenueCat and your app store process purchase information to provide trial and paid access. On Android only, the free trial uses a verified email account on our servers.

Information stored on your device

Vita Nova stores what you enter in the app's private storage on your device. This can include:

  • Cycle dates and daily observations
  • Bleeding, Peak Day, and intercourse indicators
  • Notes and symptom tags
  • App preferences, including reminder settings

Your cycle observations, dates, intercourse markers, and notes are not sent to Thomistico, RevenueCat, or our trial-account servers. Using the app's reset feature removes them, and uninstalling the app generally removes them, subject to your device platform's backup behavior.

Export, backup, and import

You can save your chart as a PDF, print it, or attach it to an email in your mail app, and you can back up all chart data as a JSON file or restore a Vita Nova backup. These actions start only when you choose them and are processed on your device. Once you share, save, print, or email a file, it is handled by your device and the app, printer, or recipient you select. Thomistico does not receive it.

Reminders

If you turn on reminders, Vita Nova asks for notification permission and schedules them through your device's operating system. Reminder settings are stored on your device. We do not operate a notification server and do not receive reminder data.

Free trial and lifetime purchase

Vita Nova offers a seven-day free trial and an optional one-time lifetime unlock. Purchases and trial status are handled through Apple's App Store or Google Play and RevenueCat, a purchase-management service that processes this information for us.

  • RevenueCat receives an anonymous app-generated customer identifier, purchase and receipt information, trial and entitlement status, and technical details needed to validate purchases (such as app version and platform).
  • The app turns off RevenueCat's optional automatic collection of device identifiers.
  • Your app store processes your payment details; we do not receive them.
  • Chart data is never included in purchase requests.

See RevenueCat's privacy policy and your app store's privacy information. On iOS, the trial does not need a Vita Nova account.

Android trial accounts

On Android, the seven-day trial uses a verified email account on servers operated by Thomistico LLC. We store your email address, a hash of your password (never the plain-text password), account and security records, and trial activation and expiry times. Checking or starting the trial requires an internet connection, and we send account emails such as address confirmation to the address you provide. Your chart is never stored in this account.

Deleting the trial account removes its account data. To prevent a new trial after reinstalling or recreating an account, we keep a one-way hash of the verified email address and the time the trial first started. This record is not used for advertising.

Server logs

Our account servers may keep technical request logs, such as IP address, time, and request details, for security and to keep the service running.

Advertising, analytics, and sale of data

Vita Nova contains no advertising and no third-party analytics or crash-reporting SDKs, and it does not track you across other companies' apps or websites. We do not sell your personal information.

Your choices and deletion

  • Edit or delete chart entries in the app, or use Settings → Reset everything to erase all cycles on the device.
  • On Android, use Settings → Vita Nova Pro → Trial account: sign out or delete. You can also request account deletion without the app.
  • Deleting the trial account does not erase the chart on your device. Resetting chart data or uninstalling does not restart a trial or erase purchase records held by your app store.
  • To request access to or deletion of information we or RevenueCat hold about you, email [email protected]. App stores keep their own purchase records under their own policies.

Protect your chart with a device passcode, keep your operating system up to date, and secure any files you export.

Children

Vita Nova is intended for adults and is not directed to children. Contact us if you believe a child has provided information through the app.

Changes

We may update this policy. The date above changes when we do, and material changes apply going forward.
