Privacy · Updated 14 November 2026Español
What information is handled when you visit this site or use the VARO app, what for, and what you can do about it. In short: we don't sell data, we don't use it for advertising, and the app keeps what's yours on your device.
VARO® is a studio run by Álvaro De Ramón Murillo, in La Paz, Bolivia. For any question about this policy or your data, write to info@varointernational.com.
The forms on this site send nothing to a server of ours. When you press send, your own mail app opens (or WhatsApp, where indicated) with the message ready, and you are the one who sends it. What we receive is that email or message: your name, your address or number, and what you wrote.
We use it to answer you and, if you asked to receive MIRA, to send it to you. Nothing else.
We use Google Analytics to know how many visits each page gets and where they come from. For that, Google stores cookies in your browser and receives your IP address, details of your device and the pages you view. We don't use it for advertising or to identify you.
You can prevent it by blocking cookies in your browser or with the Google Analytics opt-out add-on. The site works the same.
When you open a page, your browser connects to these services, which receive your IP address like any web server:
The language you chose and, on the coffee auction pages, the name you bid under. They are stored only in your browser and you can delete them from its settings.
We don't use advertising trackers.
This applies to the web test version of VARO, at varo-app.pages.dev.
VARO has no accounts and no servers of its own. Your tasks, routines, goals, energy check-ins and journal entries are stored in the browser on your device. In this test version they are not encrypted. They don't reach us and we can't see them.
If you connect your calendar, VARO asks Google for permission to:
VARO cannot modify your other calendars. The connection goes directly between your browser and Google; the permission is kept in your browser and expires after about an hour. The events it reads are used only inside the app, on your device.
If you turn on "Share with your AI", VARO creates a document called VARO Journal in your Google Drive and keeps it up to date with what you choose: journal, energy check-ins and tasks. VARO can only open and change the documents it creates itself, not the rest of your Drive.
That document is yours. If you add it to an AI such as Claude, ChatGPT or Gemini, its content is handled by that service under its own privacy policy.
VARO's use of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. VARO does not transfer that data to third parties, does not use it for advertising, and no person reads it.
"Report a problem or send an idea" opens your mail app. The message includes what you write and, if you leave the option ticked, technical details: app version, language, device type and which connections are on. It never includes your tasks or your journal.
Emails and messages that reach info@varointernational.com are kept while the conversation or project is active and deleted when no longer needed. You can unsubscribe from MIRA at any time by writing to that same address.
You can ask to see, correct or delete what we hold about you by writing to info@varointernational.com. If you are in the European Union or the United Kingdom, you can also complain to your data protection authority.
If this policy changes, we will publish the new version here with its date.
