2. Data We Collect

2.1 Google OAuth (Registration & Sign-in)

When registering via Google OAuth, we receive the following data from Google: name, email address, and profile picture (avatar URL). This data is used exclusively for account creation and identification.

2.2 Usage Data

In the course of using the platform, we store:

  • Rits (questions asked and AI-generated answers including lateral shifts)

  • Streak and activity data (daily usage history)
  • Resonances (semantic similarities between rits of different users)
  • Optional user reflections on individual rits

Important: Users' original questions and personal reflections are never shared directly with other users and are not used for resonance matching.

2.3 Technical Data

  • IP address (rate limiting via Upstash Redis, automatically deleted after 24 hours)
  • Session cookie (technically necessary for authentication via Auth.js JWT; no tracking)

3. Data Sharing with Third Parties
