Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 30, 2026
Restart ("we", "us") is operated by Fukun Zhang, Largo Luca Della Robbia 35, 10141 Turin, Italy, who is responsible for your data. This page explains what data we collect when you use Restart, why we collect it, and how you can control it. You can reach us at zhangrich5@gmail.com.
What we collect
- Account: your email address, used to sign you in with a one-time email code (we never store a password).
- Product data: the tasks you enter each day, whether you marked them done, which days you checked something off, the items you park in the Holding Tray, the first steps you write when shrinking a task, your time zone (so a "day" matches your local calendar), and any reflection notes you write when returning after a gap.
- Onboarding answers: your response to the "why did you stop last time" question, if you answer it.
- Billing: if you subscribe, Stripe processes your payment directly — we store only your subscription status and Stripe's reference IDs, never your card details.
What we don't do
- We don't sell your data.
- We don't share your data with advertisers.
- We don't use your task content for anything other than showing it back to you.
Who processes it on our behalf
- Turso — hosts our database (your account and product data).
- Resend — sends sign-in codes. We don't send reminder or "you've been away" emails.
- Stripe — processes payments and manages your subscription.
- Vercel — hosts the app.
Why we process your data
We use your account and product data to provide the service you signed up for. We keep billing records because the law requires it. We also use limited technical data (such as sign-in attempts) to keep accounts secure and prevent abuse.
Cookies
We only use a cookie that is strictly necessary to keep you signed in (it lasts up to 30 days). We do not use advertising or tracking cookies, and we do not run analytics on this site.
Where your data goes
Some of our providers (Vercel, Turso, Resend, Stripe) may process data outside the EU, including in the United States. We rely on the standard data-protection safeguards those providers offer, such as standard contractual clauses.
Your controls
You can permanently delete your account and all associated data from Settings — this is immediate and cannot be undone. You can also email us at zhangrich5@gmail.com to request access, correction, deletion or export of your data, or to object to how we use it. If you are in the EU, you can also complain to your data protection authority; in Italy that is the Garante per la protezione dei dati personali.
Data retention
We keep your data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we delete your data. We may keep minimal billing records where required by law.
Children
Restart is not directed at children under 16, and we don't knowingly collect their data.
Changes
If we make material changes to this policy, we'll notify you by email.
