Privacy Policy

MeloMed Inc. · Last updated July 2026. This policy covers the Nocturne app.

Nocturne is a private mood-journaling app. You write how you feel, we generate a short reflection and a mood-matched playlist. We collect the minimum needed to do that, and we do not sell your data or show ads.

Questions, requests, or data deletion? Email candy@melomed.io and we'll respond.

What we collect

Your journal entries — the text (and optional photos) you write, plus the mood/emotion analysis derived from them.
Account info — if you create an account, your email address (handled by our authentication provider, Supabase). You can use guest mode without an account.
Music preferences — genres you like or avoid, to personalize playlists.
Apple Health (optional) — if you allow it, Nocturne reads your daily "State of Mind" from Apple Health to pair it with an entry. We never write to Health, and the app works fully without granting access.

How your entries are processed

When you submit an entry, its text is sent to our backend and analyzed by a large language model to produce a reflection and song suggestions. Song titles are matched to real tracks via the Spotify and Apple/iTunes catalog search APIs. Your entries and their analysis are stored in our database (Supabase/PostgreSQL) so your journal persists across devices. We do not use your entries to train models.

What we do NOT do

We do not sell or rent your personal data.
We do not show ads.
We do not post anything on your behalf.

Your choices

You can delete your account and associated data at any time by emailing candy@melomed.io. You can revoke Apple Health access in iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Health at any time.

Not a medical service

Nocturne is for reflection and wellness, not diagnosis, treatment, or therapy. It does not provide medical advice. If you are in crisis, contact local emergency services or a crisis line.
