Part two

The myEcology app

The sections below cover the myEcology app, a family reflection app offered by Innate Intelligence LLC dba Family Mycology. They add to everything above. Where the two differ for the app, these sections apply.

Who the app is for

myEcology is made for adults. Account holders must be at least 18, or the age of majority where they live. Parents and caregivers use it to reflect on their own family. Children do not use the app, do not sign in, and do not have accounts. The app is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly allow anyone under 13 to create an account.

What the app collects

Your children's information

In myEcology, parents enter information about their children. Your children are the people the reflections are about, and you are the account holder and the person who gives consent. By entering a child's information, you confirm that you are the child's parent or legal guardian, or hold equivalent authority, and you consent on the child's behalf to the use described here.

We treat this information as sensitive. You never need to enter a child's full legal name: initials or a nickname work. Birth time and birth place are optional. Please enter only what you need for the reflection you are looking for. You can access, export, or delete a child's information at any time by writing to support@familymycology.com.

How the app uses your information

Readings are generated by Anthropic's Claude through its commercial API, which we call directly. Under Anthropic's commercial terms, your content is not used to train its models, and Anthropic deletes it within 30 days except where needed for safety review or as required by law. We do not sell your information, and we do not use your reflections or your family's information to train AI models.

Flagging a reading

If a reading doesn't feel right, you can flag it. A flag carries only two things: the reading the app gave you, with identifying details automatically removed, and one of three reasons you choose: Didn't sound like myEcology, Didn't fit my family, or Told me what to do. There is no space to type, and a flag never includes what you wrote.

Flags are reviewed by a small review team at Family Mycology. Reviewers see only the reading, with identifying details automatically removed, and the reason you chose. They never see what you wrote: not your reflections, your notes, or anything else you entered. The automatic removal of identifying details is a best effort, not a guarantee, so a flagged reading may still contain some details about your family.

We use flags only to improve how myEcology reads families. Flags are not read in real time, and no one replies to them. You can withdraw a flag you sent by writing to support@familymycology.com; we will delete any flags we can connect to your account (see How long we keep app data below). Flags are deleted after 90 days in any case.

A note on reporting. A member of our review team may be a licensed professional with legal reporting obligations. If a flagged reading contains information about harm to a child or another person, that reviewer may be required by law to report it, even though myEcology is not a reporting channel.

myEcology is not a crisis service

myEcology does not watch for emergencies, and a flag is not a way to reach anyone for help. If you, your child, or anyone else is in danger or crisis, please reach out now:

Where your app information is kept

When you sign in, your household details, birth information, readings, and Field Journal are stored on our servers so you can use them across devices. A working copy is also kept in your browser. myEcology runs on Replit and its database, hosted in North America. Sign-in is handled by Supabase in the United States.

Who helps us run the app

We share information only with the companies that help us run the app and this website, under agreements that limit them to working on our behalf. The companies that handle your information, including our AI provider, are listed with what each one does on our Subprocessors page. We may also disclose information if the law requires it, to protect someone's safety, or as part of a business transfer.

Security

No system is completely secure, so we cannot promise absolute security. If a security incident affects your personal information, we will tell affected account holders, and regulators where required, as the law requires. Because sign-in depends on your email inbox, please keep that inbox secure. If you lose access to it for good, we may not be able to restore your account.

Your choices in the app

You can ask to see, export, correct, or delete your information and your family's information at any time by writing to support@familymycology.com. This includes deleting single entries or deleting your whole account and household. Flags are handled a little differently; see How long we keep app data below. Account deletion removes your journal entries and your household's member and relationship information. Stripe may keep limited billing records for tax and accounting.

Depending on where you live, you may have more rights, including the right to access, correct, delete, or move your data, to limit its use, and to appeal our decision. Colorado residents have rights under the Colorado Privacy Act, and California residents under the CCPA and CPRA. We respond to verified requests within 45 days. If we deny a request, you can appeal by replying to our decision or writing to support@familymycology.com, and Colorado residents may also contact the Colorado Attorney General. For your children, you use these rights on their behalf as their parent or guardian.

How long we keep app data

We keep your family's information while your account is active, plus limited periods needed for legal, tax, security, and backup reasons. Entries you delete are hidden right away and then permanently removed. When an account is deleted, its data is removed from the live system, and copies in backups are removed as those backups expire. Flags are deleted after 90 days. Because a flag is stored with identifying details removed and without anything you wrote, we may not be able to tell which flags came from you. If you would like flags you sent removed, write to support@familymycology.com and we will delete any we can connect to your account. Billing records are kept as required for tax and accounting.
