Adapt Privacy Policy
Updated November 13, 2026
Who is responsible
Adapt is published by Matt Carolan. For privacy questions or requests, email dev@mattcarolan.net.
Information in Adapt
Adapt stores your name or nickname, optional social links, assessment answers and results, assessment history, saved connections, team information, and preferences on your device. Older versions may also have saved reflection or journal entries. A random local identifier helps recognize repeated sharing; it is not a verified identity. Adapt does not require an online account and has no app-operated server collecting this information. The app does not include advertising or analytics tracking.
How information is used
Your information is used to personalize the app, calculate styles, compare shared results, manage local teams and connections, and provide reminders you enable. Your social links are optional. Device and app-store services may separately process information under their own policies.
Sharing is your choice
When you share a profile, its code includes your name, personal style scores, optional social links and local identifier. Team submissions include your name or identifier and the assessments you choose to share. Team invitations contain the team name and invitation identifier. Shared team results contain aggregate results and a team name; small groups may still be identifiable. Codes, QR images and shared links are readable by anyone who receives them and are not encrypted or authenticated by Adapt. Only share with people you trust. Recipients keep their own local copies. Adding or removing someone from your local team does not update their device automatically.
Camera, notifications and sharing permissions
The camera is used only when you choose to scan a QR code; Adapt does not store or upload camera images. Notifications are optional local reminders, requested when you enable them in Settings. You can disable reminders in Adapt or change permissions in device settings. Copying and sharing use your device clipboard and share sheet. Adapt does not read your address book, microphone or location.
Website and external services
5000days.net is hosted by GitHub Pages. Hosting and network providers may process normal request information such as IP addresses and browser details under their own policies. New sharing links place the code after the # sign so it is not sent to the hosting server as part of the HTTP request. Older links use a query string and may appear in server logs. Opening social links or sharing through another app is subject to that service’s privacy policy. If you email us, your message and email address are processed to answer your request through email providers. Messages submitted using the website support form are also processed by FormSubmit, which forwards your name, email address, and message to our support email address.
Retention and deletion
App information stays on your device until you remove it, clear the app’s storage or uninstall the app. Retaking a personal assessment preserves its history. Saved connections can be deleted in their connection screen; local team membership can be changed in Modify Team. Device backups may include app data according to your device and backup settings, and restoring a backup may restore data. Remove relevant backups through your device or backup provider if needed. We cannot remotely access or delete your local data or copies already shared with other people. Contact those recipients to request deletion. Privacy-related correspondence is retained only as needed to resolve the request and meet applicable obligations. There is no online Adapt account to delete.
Security
Adapt relies on device security and operating-system storage controls. Protect your device and backups. Sharing codes are not passwords and must not be treated as proof of identity. No storage or transmission method is completely secure.
Children and policy changes
Adapt contains no age-restricted content, and its content is suitable for all ages. Its intended audience is primarily adults aged 18 and over and people who run or work in a business or organization. Its focus on workplace relationships and technology change means most children are unlikely to find the app engaging or easy to understand. Contact us if you have a concern about a child’s information. Changes to this policy will be reflected in the updated date above.
