3. What Information We Collect
We collect only the data that is necessary to provide and improve our service. The information we collect can be categorized as follows:
a) Information You Provide to Us:
Account Information: When you create an account, we collect your email address and a hashed version of your password. This is used for authentication and to secure your account.
Decision Flow Content: We collect the information you provide during a decision-making flow, such as your answers to questions, your pros and cons lists, and your final decisions. This is necessary to provide the core functionality of the App.
Feedback Information: If you choose to submit feedback through the App, we collect the information you provide, which may include your comments, suggestions, and optionally, your email address for follow-up communication.
b) Information We Collect Automatically:
Usage Data: We may collect anonymous data about your interaction with the App, such as which features you use and how frequently. This helps us understand how to improve the user experience.
Device Information: We automatically collect basic, non-personally identifiable information about your device, such as the app version, device model, and operating system version. This is used for bug fixing and ensuring compatibility.
4. How We Use Your Information (Purpose of Processing)
We use the information we collect for the following purposes:
To Provide and Maintain Our Service: To operate the decision-making flows, save your history (for logged-in users), manage your account, and provide the core features of the App.
To Process Your Requests with AI: The content of your decision flows (your questions and answers) is sent to a third-party AI service (Google’s Gemini API) to generate recommendations and analysis. This is a fundamental part of the App’s functionality.
To Improve Our App: To analyze usage patterns and feedback to identify areas for improvement, fix bugs, and develop new features.
To Communicate With You: To respond to your feedback or support requests and to send important notices regarding your account or our services.
5. Data Sharing and Third Parties
We do not sell your personal data. We only share it with third parties who are essential for providing our service:
Google (for Gemini API & Firebase):
AI Processing: To provide you with AI-powered recommendations, the content of your decision-making prompts is sent to Google’s Gemini API for processing. Google’s use of this data is governed by their API terms and privacy policies.
Backend Infrastructure: We use Google’s Firebase platform for backend services, including user authentication, database storage (Firestore), and server-side logic (Cloud Functions).
Legal Requirements: We may disclose your information if required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities.
6. Your Data Protection Rights (GDPR)
As a user, especially within the European Union, you have specific rights regarding your personal data:
The Right to Access: You have the right to request copies of your personal data that we hold. You can view most of this data directly within the App’s “Account” and “History” sections.
The Right to Rectification: You have the right to request that we correct any information you believe is inaccurate or complete information you believe is incomplete (e.g., changing your password).
The Right to Erasure (“Right to be Forgotten”): You have the right to request the deletion of your account and all associated personal data. This can be initiated directly from the “Account” screen within the App.
The Right to Restrict Processing: You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data, under certain conditions.
The Right to Data Portability: You have the right to request that we transfer the data that we have collected to another organization, or directly to you, under certain conditions.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at our support email: [Your Contact Email].
7. Data Security
We take the security of your data seriously and use appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect it. This includes using secure services like Firebase for data storage and authentication. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure.
8. Data Retention
We will retain your personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy. We will retain and use your data to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our policies. When you delete your account, your personal data will be permanently removed from our active databases.
9. Analytics
We use Firebase Analytics to understand how our App is used and to improve our services. Firebase Analytics is a service provided by Google that helps us analyze app usage patterns and user behavior in an aggregated and anonymized manner.
What Analytics Data We Collect:
– App usage statistics (which screens are visited, how long users spend in the app)
– Feature usage patterns (which features are used most frequently)
– Performance metrics (app crashes, loading times)
– General device information (device type, operating system version, app version)
This data is collected automatically and is used solely to:
– Improve the user experience and app performance
– Understand which features are most valuable to users
– Identify and fix technical issues
– Make data-driven decisions about new features
All analytics data is processed in accordance with Google’s Privacy Policy and Firebase’s data processing terms. The data is aggregated and anonymized, meaning it cannot be used to identify individual users.
You can opt out of analytics data collection by disabling analytics in your device’s settings or by contacting us at [email protected].
10. Children’s Privacy
Our service does not address anyone under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and you are aware that your child has provided us with personal data, please contact us.
11. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the “Last Updated” date. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
