CrescentPrivacy Policy
Last updated 26 July 2026
Who we are
Crescent is made by Mistiq LLC. If you want to reach a person about anything on this page, write to hello@mistiq.org.
What we collect
Birth details. A name, date, time and place of birth for each chart you save, including the coordinates and timezone we resolve the place to. This is the only way to cast a real chart, and it is the most sensitive thing we hold. It is encrypted at rest.
Account details. An email address and a password hash if you create an account, or the identifier your provider gives us if you sign in with Google or Apple. We never receive your Google or Apple password.
What you write. Questions you ask the astrologer and the answers you get, so the conversation has memory. Feedback you leave on a reading.
Purchases. If you subscribe, our payment processor handles the card. We store the subscription state, not the card number.
What we do not do
We do not sell your data. We do not share your birth details with advertisers, and there are no advertising trackers anywhere in the product: not on your chart, not on a reading, not on anything you pay for. Advertising exists only on the public Journal, and it is described below. Your chart is not used to build a marketing profile of you.
Using Crescent without an account
You can use Crescent anonymously. We create a session for your device so your charts persist, with no email attached. If you later create an account, that session is claimed and nothing is lost.
How readings are produced
Every position in your chart is computed by our own engine from astronomical data. To put a reading into words we send the computed placements, and your question, to a text-generation provider under a contract that forbids using it to train their models. We do not send your name, your email, or your birth place.
Advertising on the Journal
The Journal, our public articles, carries advertising from Google AdSense. The product itself does not: there are no ads on your chart, your readings, or anything you pay for.
Google and its partners use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other sites. You can opt out of personalised advertising in Google Ads Settings, and opt out of other vendors at aboutads.info. We do not pass your birth details, your questions, or anything from your chart to any advertiser, and nothing you enter into Crescent is used to target an ad.
How long we keep it
Until you delete it. Deleting a chart removes its birth details and anything derived from it. Deleting your account removes everything, and we do it rather than flagging a row as hidden.
Your choices
You can delete any chart from the chart screen, and you can ask us to delete your whole account by writing to hello@mistiq.org. You can ask for a copy of what we hold about you. If you are in the UK, EU or California, you have specific rights over that data and we honour them wherever you are, because keeping two standards is worse than keeping one.
Children
Crescent is not for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their data.
Changes
If this policy changes in a way that matters, we will say so in the app rather than quietly editing this page.
