Last updated: October 2026

Damaura is published and operated by TACHYS X SDN. BHD. ("Tachys X", "we", "us"), in collaboration with SERENITILABS SDN. BHD. ("Serenitilabs"), which develops and maintains Damaura. Tachys X is the data controller responsible for your personal data.

We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the responsible handling of your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect information across the Damaura mobile app, the Damaura web app and damaura.ai, in accordance with Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA) 2010 and applicable international standards.

By using Damaura, you consent to the practices described below.

1. What We Collect

We may collect the following types of data:

1.1 Personal Information

  • Name, email address, phone number (if provided)
  • Account login information. If you sign in with Apple or Google, they share your name and email address with us (Apple can share a private relay address instead); we never see your Apple or Google password
  • Credit packs you buy: the pack, price, date and store transaction ID. Apple or Google takes the payment; we never see your card or bank details
  • Device information (model, OS version, language settings)

1.2 Wellbeing & App Interaction Data

  • Reflections, journal entries, and mood logs voluntarily entered by the user
  • Preferences, goals, and selected wellbeing modules
  • Conversation inputs sent to our AI wellness assistant
  • Non-identifiable analytics (e.g., feature usage, session length)

1.3 Automatically Collected Data

  • IP address
  • App performance logs
  • Crash reports
  • Basic device analytics (non-identifying)

1.4 Sensitive Personal Data

Only if voluntarily provided by the user through:

  • Wellbeing reflections
  • Emotional self-assessments
  • General stress or mood descriptions

Important: Damaura does not collect clinical, diagnostic, or medical records.

2. Our Purpose for Collecting Data

We process your data solely for wellness and app functionality, including:

  • To provide AI-driven wellbeing conversations and reflective tools
  • To personalise your experience and track your wellbeing trends
  • To improve app safety, quality, and usability
  • To troubleshoot issues, ensure system stability, and prevent misuse
  • To send optional reminders, updates, or support messages
  • To comply with legal obligations where applicable

Damaura does not provide medical or therapeutic diagnosis. All guidance is general wellness support only.

3. How We Use AI

Damaura uses artificial intelligence to generate supportive wellbeing responses.

When you interact with the AI:

  • Your text inputs are processed securely to generate responses
  • Your messages are sent to Anthropic (Claude), which generates responses, and to OpenAI, which creates the text embeddings Damaura uses to recall earlier context. Both process data in the United States
  • Inputs may be anonymised and used to improve response accuracy

We ensure that all AI processing complies with PDPA requirements, and no data is used for marketing or profiling.

We do not sell or rent your personal data.

Data may be shared only in the following limited situations:
