The app is designed with a 'privacy-first' architecture: all user data (including mood records, diary content, etc.) is stored only locally on the device, with military-grade AES-256 encryption; app permissions strictly follow the principle of minimization, with no requests for sensitive permissions such as location, contacts, etc.; and data exchanges are made using an end-to-end encrypted channel. These measures enable MindLift to pass the EU GDPR and HIPAA dual compliance certification. On the technical level, its offline mode realizes AI functions through local neural networks, ensuring that core functions are still available when disconnected from the Internet. Compared with similar products, its data retention strategy has obvious advantages: cloud backup adopts a user-autonomous trigger system; the system automatically prompts for data cleanup every 90 days; and it provides a complete data export and destruction tool chain. This design is particularly suitable for handling sensitive mental health data.
