Privacy Policy

What MoodFeed is

MoodFeed asks how you're feeling and how you'd like to feel, then suggests music, videos, podcasts, articles, and small activities. This page explains what happens to the information you share with it.

No account, no sign-up

MoodFeed doesn't require creating an account, and we don't collect your name, email address, or any other identifying information to use it.

What you type in

The text you enter describing how you feel and how you'd like to feel is sent to a third-party AI provider (Google Gemini, or Anthropic Claude if configured as a fallback) to generate your personalized feed. We don't store this text ourselves, and we don't use it to identify or track you. It's subject to that provider's own privacy policy:

• Google Gemini API terms & privacy
• Anthropic privacy policy

If you write something suggesting you may be in crisis, MoodFeed automatically detects this (using a simple keyword check that runs before anything is generated) and shows you crisis support resources instead of a content feed. That text is still processed the same way as above — nothing is flagged, reviewed, or stored by us.

What's stored, and where

Your feed, mood text, feedback, and recently shown content IDs are saved in your browser's local storage until you clear them. Starting a new feed clears the saved session; the recent content list remains to avoid repeats. When you create or adapt a feed, the information needed for that request is sent to our server and, when configured, the AI provider. Sessions are not synchronized across devices.

Analytics

Only after you enable Analytics in your privacy preferences, MoodFeed uses Vercel Web Analytics to understand basic usage — page views and which pages are visited. It's cookieless and doesn't track you across other websites. MoodFeed no longer uses PostHog or sends product events to it. Vercel does not receive your mood text or optional free-text feedback.

Cookies and privacy preferences

Necessary browser storage keeps your feed and your privacy choice. Optional analytics and external video players are disabled until you allow them. You can accept all, reject optional services, or choose Analytics and External videos separately. Closing the first banner keeps optional services disabled. Your choice is stored in local storage for 180 days, after which we ask again. If storage is unavailable, it lasts only for the current page.

Use Cookie preferences in the footer to change or withdraw consent at any time. Withdrawal stops future analytics capture and removes embedded players when their permission is disabled; it does not undo data already sent. Legacy PostHog browser storage is removed on your next visit. Cookies or data previously stored by YouTube are controlled by YouTube and can be removed through your browser settings.

External videos

YouTube players load only after you enable External videos. Loading a player shares connection information such as your IP address with YouTube, which may use cookies or similar storage under its own policy. If you decline, you can still open the video directly on YouTube using the external link; that visit is governed by YouTube's policies. Google / YouTube privacy policy.

Children

MoodFeed is not directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect information from them.

Changes to this policy

If how MoodFeed handles your information changes materially, this page will be updated and the date at the top revised accordingly.
