Legal · Plain-spoken on purpose

The fine print, written to be read.

We measure your sky; we don't sell it. Below is the whole of it — how we handle your data, the terms of using the app, and where the numbers come from. No dark patterns, no buried clauses.

Document 01

Privacy Policy

AstroQuant runs on two facts about you: when and where you were born, and the email you sign in with. Everything the app shows is computed from those. This explains what we hold, why, and for how long.

In short

Your birth details and email, nothing more. We don't sell data, run ad trackers, or share your chart with anyone.

1.1What we collect

  • Birth details — your date, time, and place of birth. These are the inputs to your natal chart and to every score the app produces.
  • Email address — used only to sign you in and to send the morning forecast if you turn it on. There is no password to store.
  • Device basics — model and OS version, collected to keep the app stable. Never tied to advertising identifiers.

That's the full list. We don't ask for your name, your contacts, your location beyond your stated birthplace, or anything you haven't typed in yourself.

1.2How it's used

Birth details are converted, on first launch, into a natal chart and then into your daily AQ Index across the eight life areas. Your email keys your account and delivers notifications you've asked for. We do not profile you for advertising, build a marketing graph, or enrich your record from third parties.

1.3Where it lives

Your chart is computed and cached on your device. The minimal account record — email and encrypted birth details — sits on our servers so your readings survive a reinstall. Everything in transit is encrypted; everything at rest is encrypted.

The math is ours. Planetary positions are calculated by our own ephemeris engine, so generating your forecast never sends your details to an outside astrology service.

1.4How long we keep it

Birth details & emailAccount data
Held while your account is active. Deleted within 30 days of you closing it.
Computed readingsDerived
Cached on your device; cleared whenever you clear the data cache in Profile, or on uninstall.

Aggregated and anonymised; retained no longer than 90 days.

1.5Your controls

  • Edit your birth details any time from Profile — the index recomputes on the spot.
  • Clear the cache to wipe every computed reading from the device.
  • Export or delete your account record by writing to our team; deletion is honoured within 30 days.

Terms of Service

The agreement between you and AstroQuant. Using the app means you accept what's here. We've kept it short and in ordinary language.

In short

It's a measurement instrument, not advice. Read your numbers; make your own decisions.

2.1What AstroQuant is

AstroQuant turns your natal chart and current transits into a daily score across eight life areas. It is a tool for reflection. The readings describe support conditions — they suggest and indicate; they never determine. Nothing in the app is medical, legal, financial, or psychological advice.

2.2Using the app responsibly

  • You're 16 or older, and the birth details you enter are your own to share.
  • You won't attempt to break, scrape, or resell the service or its underlying engine.
  • A low score is never a reason to avoid a doctor, a decision, or a person. Your judgement comes first.

2.3Beta software

AstroQuant is in active development and distributed through TestFlight. That means features change, numbers may be recalibrated, and the occasional rough edge is expected. We ship weekly and read the feedback — but we can't promise any single feature, date, or uptime during beta.

2.4The accounts and the content

Your account is yours; keep your email secure. The app, its design, its copy, and the ephemeris engine behind it remain ours. You're free to share screenshots of your own readings — that's encouraged.

2.5Liability, plainly

We provide AstroQuant as is. We work hard to make the calculations correct and the app dependable, but we're not liable for decisions you make after reading a score. If a part of these terms isn't enforceable where you live, the rest still stands.

Data & sources

Where the numbers come from. The whole point of AstroQuant is that the astrology is in the math — so it's only fair to show which math.

In short

First-party ephemeris, standard aspect geometry, transparent weighting. No black box.

3.1Planetary positions

Positions for the Sun, Moon, and eight planets are produced by our own ephemeris engine, derived from JPL DE440 planetary data. We moved off third-party feeds so the same first-party numbers run the whole app — and so your birth details never leave for an outside service.

EphemerisPositions
First-party engine over JPL DE440. Geocentric, true-of-date.
HousesChart frame
Placidus by default, computed from your birth time and place.
AspectsGeometry
Conjunction, sextile, square, trine, opposition — with standard orbs.

3.2From positions to a score

Each day, transiting bodies are checked against your natal chart. Every aspect carries a polarity (supportive or challenging) and a strength that rises as the orb tightens. Those are weighted into the eight life areas and normalised onto the 0–100 AQ scale. Retrograde motion shades the relevant area and tints the background.

The weights are a model, not a verdict — which is exactly why every reading is hedged. The app says suggests and indicates because that's what the math honestly supports.

3.3What we don't claim

  • The AQ Index is a structured reading of celestial mechanics, not a prediction of events.
  • Scores are reproducible from public astronomy — given the same birth data, anyone with the same model gets the same numbers.
  • We don't tune your scores from your behaviour, and we never adjust the math to keep you in the app.

3.4Questions & requests

Privacy requests, data exports, account deletion, or a methodology question — all go to one place. We answer in plain language, usually within a few days.

privacy@astroquant.app — and hello@astroquant.app for anything else. Beta testers can also raise it directly in the Discord.

Plain enough? If a clause here reads like it's hiding something, that's a bug — tell us and we'll rewrite it.
