Involved Diary is a personal journaling app with AI-powered reflection tools. It helps you:

  • write entries,

You are responsible for:

  • keeping your login secure,
  • using accurate account information,
  • complying with these terms.

4. Your Content

You retain full ownership of all content you create.

You grant us a limited license to use the data strictly for:
