Privacy Policy & Data Sovereignty

Effective Date: June 2026

1. Our Commitment to Data Sovereignty

The 12D Foundation ("Foundation," "we," "us") operates under a strict "Zero-PII" (Personally Identifiable Information) mandate across all community wellness initiatives. We do not engage in medical or clinical research, and we do not collect diagnostic patient data. This policy explains how we keep your personal identity completely isolated from your voluntary wellness logs and acoustic feedback.

2. Information We Collect and How We Isolate It

To protect your privacy, we maintain two completely separate and isolated data environments:

• A. The Administrative Environment (Website): When you sign up for educational materials, request access to wellness tools, or make a charitable contribution, we collect standard administrative data (such as your Name, Email, and Phone Number). This data is processed securely and is used strictly for account administration, tax receipting, and educational updates. When you voluntarily provide contact details, we may use privacy-safe, one-way cryptographic hashing to transmit this data to analytics and measurement partners (such as Google Ads) strictly for conversion attribution and service optimization.
• B. The Wellness Environment (The 12D Terminal): When you interact with our interactive wellness tools, you are automatically assigned an anonymous, randomized user_token. The terminal gathers non-clinical acoustic data (such as voice or whistle resonance patterns), self-reported relaxation scores, and session timestamps. This session data is stored in a secure vault and is never linked to your name, email, or real-world identity.

3. How We Use Your Data

Administrative Data: Used exclusively to deliver your personalized relaxation feedback, share educational updates, and provide info on our public charity programs. We will never sell, rent, or lease your personal contact information.

Wellness Feedback Data: This anonymous acoustic data is used to expand public, open-source understanding of how gentle soundscapes and resonance exercises support daily relaxation and stress resilience. We may use pattern-analysis tools to refine and improve our self-guided Bio-Acoustic Tuning™ configurations.

4. Microphone and Audio Data

Our interactive wellness tools utilize a responsive Bio-Acoustic Tuning™ calibration that requires temporary access to your device's microphone.

• Real-Time Processing: Audio captured during these brief exercises is processed solely to map your natural acoustic resonance and generate your wellness profile.
• Anonymized Archiving: Raw audio clips are handled with strict anonymity. They are automatically scheduled for deletion or secure, unlinked archiving in keeping with our data-minimization guidelines.
• No Diagnostic Listening: This process is strictly educational and is not used for any medical diagnostic purposes.

5. Third-Party Infrastructure & Analytics

We work exclusively with trusted, enterprise-grade technology providers to ensure your data remains secure:

• Data Hosting & Storage: Secure cloud hosting and pattern-processing are managed through enterprise-grade partners (such as Microsoft Azure).
• Communications & Contributions: Secure transactional communications and charitable contributions are facilitated through protected portals (such as GoHighLevel and Stripe).
• Analytics & Measurement (Google Signals): We utilize Google Analytics features (including Google Signals) to collect aggregated, non-personally identifiable demographic and interest insights. Google Analytics associates session information from our site with Google account information from signed-in users who have consented to personalized advertising.
• Behavioral Insights (Microsoft Clarity): We partner with behavioral analytics tools (such as Microsoft Clarity) to capture how users interact with our website through behavioral metrics, heatmaps, and session replays. All sensitive text inputs and personal data are automatically masked before transmission to protect your privacy.

All partners are bound by strict confidentiality, security protocols, and data-protection agreements.

6. Your Rights & Choices

You have the right to opt out of email or SMS communications at any time by clicking "unsubscribe" or replying "STOP."

Because our wellness database is entirely anonymous by design, we are unable to delete specific session logs or terminal data upon request. We have no technical way to link your real-world identity to an anonymous, randomized user_token—ensuring your personal sessions remain completely private and untraceable.
