Terms of Service

Last updated 28 July 2026

The short version: Burrow is a companion, not a clinician, and everything you write stays on your phone.

Burrow is not medical care

Burrow offers breathing exercises, grounding prompts and a place to write things down. It does not diagnose, treat or monitor anything, and it is not a substitute for a doctor, therapist or crisis service. If you are in danger or thinking about harming yourself, please contact your local emergency number or a crisis line — they can help in ways an app cannot.findahelpline.com lists free, confidential support in almost every country.

Heart check-ins are not a health monitor

If you turn them on, Burrow may notice that your heart rate has been raised and ask how you are. A raised heart rate is not a diagnosis, Burrow does not treat it as one, and it must not be relied on to detect any medical condition.

Your writing is yours

Journal entries, check-ins and intentions are stored on your device and nowhere else. There is no account, no server and no analytics. Nobody at Burrow can read what you write, because it never leaves your phone. Deleting the app, or using Settings → Erase everything, removes all of it.

Backups are your responsibility

Because nothing is uploaded, nothing is recovered if you lose or reset your phone. If your device backup includes app data, Burrow's data goes with it; otherwise it does not.

No warranty

Burrow is provided as it is, without any guarantee that it will always work or always be available. Use it in whatever way helps and ignore the parts that do not.

Changes

If these terms change, the new version appears here and the version number on the app's About screen goes up. Continuing to use the app means the current version applies.
