Privacy Policy: V2: Future You, by Silent Shift
Effective date: 29 September 2026.
What V2 is
V2 is a coaching app. You talk with a future version of yourself, in text or by voice, and it holds you to the plans you make each day. To do that it has to remember what you tell it. This policy explains what it keeps, why, who else touches it, and how to have it deleted.
What we collect
- Your account. The email address you sign in with, or, if you use Sign in with Apple and choose to hide your email, the private relay address Apple gives us. Your name, if you give it.
- Your conversation. Every message you send and every reply the coach sends, in text. When you dictate, only the text you choose to send is stored; V2 does not record or upload audio.
- Your routes. When you track a walk, run or hike, the path you took (a line of map points), its distance, time, pace and, for a hike, the height you climbed. V2 records your location only while a session you started is running, and stops when you end it. A route is stored privately with the session and shown only to you, and you can delete any route without deleting the session.
- Your gyms. The gyms you add: a name, the equipment each one has, and, if you pick the gym from search, its address and map coordinates.
- What the coach learns about you. Facts you share during onboarding and afterwards (for example age, height, weight, goals, schedule, habits) and short notes the coach keeps about your patterns, so it remembers them next time.
- Your photos. The photos you take or pick so V2 can build your future-self portrait, the portrait it generates, the progress photos you take at each version (front, side and back, so you can compare them), and any photo of a meal you send the coach in chat. These are stored privately and are only ever shown to you, through short-lived signed links.
- Your day. The commitments you make in conversation, whether you kept them, your weigh-ins, the hours you slept, and what you tell the coach you ate (with its estimated calories and protein), each with the calendar date on your phone.
- Your settings. Your notification times, whether nudges are on, how the coach talks, and whether Apple Health (and, if you turn it on, Cycle from Health) is connected.
- Your cycle, only if you share it. If you tell the coach your period started, or turn on Cycle from Health, V2 keeps the dates of your period days (and how heavy, when Health has it) so the coach can plan around them. Nothing else about your cycle is collected.
- Health data, only if you turn Apple Health on, and only these kinds: your step count, your walking and running distance, your workouts (including ones a watch, a ring or another app recorded), your sleep, your mindful minutes, and, only if you also turn on Cycle from Health, your menstrual flow days. V2 reads them; it never writes anything to Health. It is off until you turn it on in You, and turning it off stops the reading. What it reads it stores the same way as everything else above: your steps and distance for each day, a record of each workout and each mindful session, the hours you slept, and the dates of your period days.
We do not collect your location except as the route of a session you track, described above. We do not collect your contacts, advertising identifiers, or any analytics about how you use the app. We do not read any health data beyond the kinds listed above: not heart rate, not weight from other apps, not fertility, sexual activity, reproductive or clinical records, not anything a doctor put there. What reaches the coach is a short daily summary: what you did today and for how long, how you slept, and, only if you shared your cycle, which day of it you are on and when your last period started. The coach's replies are written by OpenAI (see "Who processes your data"), so that summary is sent to OpenAI with your conversation, only to write the reply. Your health and cycle data are never used for advertising, never sold, never put in a notification, and never shared with anyone else. They are deleted with your account.
The permissions V2 asks for, and why
V2 asks for each of these only when you first use the feature that needs it. You can turn any of them off in iOS Settings; the rest of the app keeps working.
- Microphone. So you can talk to your future self instead of typing.
- Speech recognition. So what you say becomes text you can read and edit before sending. V2 asks iOS to recognize speech on your device. When your device cannot do that, iOS may send the audio to Apple to be recognized, under Apple's own privacy policy. V2 itself never receives or stores the audio.
- Camera. So you can take the photos your future self is built from, your progress photos at each version, and a photo of a meal for the coach to judge.
- Photo library (read). So you can pick those photos, or a photo of a meal, from your library instead.
- Photo library (add only). So Save to Photos can put your portrait in your library. V2 cannot read your library through this permission.
- Notifications. So V2 can nudge you in the morning, the afternoon and the evening. These reminders are scheduled on your phone; this version does not send push notifications from a server and does not collect a push token.
- Apple Health (read only). So your future self can see what you actually did, instead of asking you to repeat it: your steps and walking distance become the day's Moved line, a workout your watch or ring recorded logs itself against what you planned, your sleep can replace the morning question, and a mindful session counts as meditation. V2 asks only for permission to READ, and only for the kinds of data named above. It never writes to Health. This one is off until you turn it on in You, and you can change exactly what it may read at any time in the Health app, under Sharing. Cycle from Health is a separate ask, offered in You only after you tell the coach you are female, and only when you turn it on; saying no to it leaves the rest of Health working. (iOS requires an app that can reach Health at all to carry a "write" purpose string as well, so V2 carries one; it says that V2 only reads, and V2 never asks for permission to write.)
- Location, while using the app. So V2 can draw the route of a walk, run or hike you track and measure its distance and pace. It is asked for the first time you start a tracked session, never before. V2 uses it only while that session is running: if you lock your phone during it, it keeps recording until you end the session, and iOS shows its location indicator the whole time. V2 never asks for "Always" and never tracks you outside a session you started. If location is already allowed, gym search also uses it to put the gyms nearest you first; that screen never asks for it on its own. (iOS also requires a "motion and fitness" purpose string from any app whose location code could read motion activity, so V2 carries one; it says that V2 does not read it, and V2 never asks for that permission.)
Who processes your data
- Supabase stores your account, conversation, facts, notes, photos, portrait, commitments, weigh-ins and settings, and handles sign-in. It also keeps a usage record for each reply and portrait the AI produces for you: how many tokens it took, which model, and how long, so we know what running V2 costs. Those records never contain what you or the coach said. Every record belongs to exactly one account, and the database refuses any request to read another account's records.
- OpenAI receives the recent conversation and what the coach knows about you (including a tracked session's distance, time and pace and, if you shared it, your cycle day, but never the route or any location), to write the coach's replies; receives your front photo, to generate your portrait; and receives a meal photo you send in chat, so the coach can read what is on the plate. It returns the reply or the image; V2 stores the result.
- Apple provides Sign in with Apple and, as described above, may process dictated audio when on-device recognition is not available. When you name a gym, the text you type in the gym search field is sent to Apple Maps to look up matching places. If you have already allowed location, the area you are in is sent with it so nearer places come first; otherwise no location is sent. Maps of your routes are drawn by Apple's map service on your phone. If you pick a place, V2 stores that gym's name, address and map coordinates with your account, and opening Directions hands those to Apple Maps.
We do not sell your data, share it with advertisers, show ads, or use an analytics or tracking SDK.
How long we keep it, and deleting it
We keep your data for as long as you have an account, because the coach is only useful if it remembers.
You can delete your account from inside the app, at any time: You, then Delete account. It asks twice, and then it is done: your photos and your portrait are deleted from storage first, and then your account itself, which takes the conversation, the memories, the weigh-ins, the sleep and meal records, the workouts and their routes, the usage records, and everything else logged with it. It is immediate and it cannot be undone, and nothing is kept behind afterwards except anonymous server logs that carry no account data.
If you would rather we did it, email the address below and we will.
Children
V2 is intended for adults and is not directed at children.
Changes
If this policy changes, the effective date at the top changes with it, and a material change is announced in the app before it takes effect.
This website
This section covers v2futureyou.com itself, not the app.
- Hosting. The site is hosted by Netlify. Like any web host, Netlify receives your IP address and browser details when a page loads, in order to serve it, and keeps them in short-lived server logs. We do not use them to identify or follow you.
- The waitlist. If you join the waitlist, we keep the email address you enter, which part of the page you joined from, and when, so we can email you when V2 launches for iPhone. Netlify stores it for us. We use it for nothing else, never sell or share it, and delete it when you ask. Every launch email has a way to unsubscribe, or email the address below.
- Nothing else. The site sets no cookies, runs no analytics, ads, pixels or trackers, and loads nothing from any other domain: its fonts, images and videos all come from this site.
- The people on the site are illustrations. The faces in the "Meet their V2" section are AI-generated, fictional adults, not real customers or their results.
