Privacy Policy
Effective date: July 30, 2026
Cedar by Arboreal AI ("Cedar," "we," "us") is a daily habit check-in service delivered via SMS. This policy explains what we collect, why, and what we do with it.
What we collect
When you sign up and use Cedar, we collect:
- Contact info. Your name, phone number, and email address.
- Intake survey responses. Answers you provide through our signup form (hosted on Tally).
- Check-in conversations. The text messages you exchange with Cedar.
- Timezone. So we can message you at reasonable hours.
How we use it
- Send you personalized daily check-ins via SMS.
- Remember your goals, habits, and preferences between conversations.
- Improve Cedar based on how people use it (aggregated, not individual).
We do not sell your data, and we do not share your intake responses or your conversations with any third party for advertising.
Advertising and analytics on our marketing pages
Our public marketing pages, including this one, may load advertising measurement tools such as the Meta pixel. These record generic page activity (for example, that a page was viewed) along with standard technical information your browser sends, like your IP address. We use this only to understand which ads bring people to our site.
We deliberately limit what these tools ever receive. Your intake survey answers and your Cedar conversations are never sent to an advertising platform, and we do not pass any information that identifies you personally to one. If you prefer to block this entirely, browser privacy settings and tracker-blocking extensions will stop these tools from loading.
SMS specifics
Your phone number is used only to deliver Cedar check-in messages. We send messages through Twilio, our SMS provider, which processes your phone number solely to deliver messages on our behalf.
Who can see your data
Your conversations are private. Designated team members at Arboreal AI may review conversations to fix issues and improve Cedar, but access is kept minimal and internal. We will never share your conversations with another company.
Data retention and deletion
We keep your data as long as you use Cedar. If you want your data deleted, email [email protected] and we'll remove it within 30 days.
Opting out of SMS
Reply STOP to any Cedar message to stop receiving texts. Reply HELP for support. You can also email [email protected].
Changes to this policy
If we make meaningful changes, we'll let you know via text or email. The effective date at the top tells you when this version took effect.
