Yogwe, established under UAE law (Reg. No. XXX), is committed to protecting your privacy and managing your personal data responsibly in compliance with applicable laws, including the United Arab Emirates Federal Decree‑Law No. 45 of 2021 on the Protection of Personal Data (UAE PDPL) and, when applicable, the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for users in the EEA.
If you have questions about how we collect or use your personal data or wish to exercise your privacy rights, please contact our Data Protection Officer (DPO) at dpo@yogwe.com or email us at info@yogwe.com. Our mailing address is [Insert UAE Address].
Yogwe empowers users to discover their Dosha, track food, activity, and sleep, and receive AI‑driven wellness guidance. We process health data only after your explicit consent and allow you to control the wearable data shared with Yogwe. Any AI-generated suggestions are informational only and do not have legal or medical significance. Your data stays on secure UAE servers, and you may delete your account at any time to permanently remove your personal information.
When you use Yogwe, we collect personal data such as your name, email address, date of birth, gender, and country of residence to create and manage your account. We also collect health-related data, including dietary preferences, body measurements, exercise habits, sleep patterns, hydration levels, and responses to health questionnaires but only after you provide explicit consent. If you choose to integrate with Apple Health, Google Fit, Whoop, or Oura, we may collect data like step counts, heart rate, and sleep duration. Yogwe only reads this data and does not write or share it back. We may also collect technical data (such as device identifiers and location) if enabled, along with payment information for subscription processing.
We use your personal data to create and maintain your account, deliver personalized Dosha assessments, and provide wellness recommendations. If you have enabled wearable integrations, your data helps enhance personalization. We also use your information to communicate with you whether to respond to inquiries or, with your consent, send updates and promotions. Use of technical data helps us analyze usage, improve our Services, and maintain security.
We rely on your explicit consent for sensitive data processing in relation to health, wearables, and marketing communications. We also process data to perform our contractual obligations and under our legitimate interests, such as improving our Services and preventing misuse. You may withdraw consent at any time via the app’s settings.
Yogwe employs artificial intelligence to generate personalized Dosha scores, meal evaluations, and lifestyle tips. These automated processes are designed to enhance your experience and do not produce legal or similarly significant outcomes. All guidance is informational only and is not intended as medical advice. If you wish to challenge an AI recommendation or speak with a member of our team, please contact info@yogwe.com.
Yogwe allows you to connect your account with third-party applications such as Apple Health, Google Fit, Whoop, and Oura to enhance your wellness tracking experience. These integrations are optional and only activated with your explicit permission. When you authorize such integrations, Yogwe will access specific data from these platforms in accordance with your selected permissions.
When you grant us permission to read your exercise, nutrition, calorie, or step count data from a third-party application, we use this information to automatically populate your diary view, include it in calculations of your calorie balance, and generate weekly Dosha insights and Lifescore recommendations. Similarly, if you allow us to read your sleep data, Yogwe can provide visualizations of how the quality of your sleep interacts with your nutrition and exercise habits.
If you grant permission for Yogwe to write nutrition and hydration data to a third-party application, this enables you to leverage Yogwe’s user interface and food database to seamlessly track your dietary intake across multiple systems at once.
We encourage you to carefully review each third-party platform’s privacy policy to understand how they handle and protect your data, as Yogwe is not responsible for the data practices of these independent platforms. Yogwe does not send any of your personal data back to these platforms unless you explicitly authorize such actions.
You may modify or revoke these permissions at any time through the Yogwe app’s privacy settings or within the settings of the third-party application.
All your personal data is stored on secure servers located in the UAE. Should we need to transfer data abroad, we comply with the UAE PDPL and Cabinet Resolution No. 16 of 2023 by limiting transfers to jurisdictions deemed “adequate” by the UAE Data Office or by applying Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs).
We retain your personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy or as required by applicable law. If your account remains inactive for a period of three (3) consecutive years, we will delete or anonymize your personal data unless we are legally required to retain it for a longer period.
If you delete your account, exercise your rights in relation to specific personal data, or opt out from processing activities such as direct marketing, we will cease storing and processing your personal data for those purposes where applicable. However, it may be necessary for us to continue processing certain personal data for a longer period in order to comply with legal obligations or where the data protection rights invoked are not absolute or applicable
(for example, retaining information for bookkeeping, tax compliance, or fraud prevention purposes).
We will only send you marketing messages if you have explicitly opted in. You can withdraw your consent or unsubscribe at any time via the app’s settings or at the unsubscribe link included in our emails.
Under the UAE PDPL and, for Users in the EEA, the GDPR, you have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data; withdraw consent; object to processing; request portability of your data; and lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. To exercise any of these rights, please email info@yogwe.com or make a request through the app.
If you are under the age of 13, or the age of digital consent in your country, whichever is higher, you are not permitted to create an account or submit any personal data through the Yogwe Services. We encourage parents and legal guardians to actively monitor their children’s internet usage and to assist us in enforcing this Privacy Policy by instructing their children not to provide personal data without parental consent.
If you become aware that a child under the age of 13, or the applicable digital age of consent in their jurisdiction, has submitted personal data to us without appropriate parental consent, please contact us immediately at info@yogwe.com. Upon verification, we will take prompt steps to delete such information from our records in accordance with applicable data protection laws.
We safeguard your personal data through a combination of technical and organizational measures, including encryption, access controls, and regular security audits, to prevent unauthorized access, disclosure, or alteration.
