Information We Do NOT Collect Directly

We do not directly collect personally identifiable information such as your name, address, or phone number unless you voluntarily provide it (e.g., if you contact us by email).

App Data (Local Storage)

The App stores essential information on your device for its functionality, including:

This data remains only on your device and is not collected or stored on our servers.

• We do not store your Google credentials.

• Authentication is handled securely by Google.

• Data synced to Google Drive is encrypted before upload.

• Google Drive usage is subject to Google’s Privacy Policy.

Crash Reports (Firebase Crashlytics)

We use Firebase Crashlytics to identify and fix errors in the App.
Crashlytics may collect anonymous or pseudonymized information about your device and app usage when a crash occurs, such as:

• Device type

• Operating system version

• Crash details

This information does not personally identify you.
For more details, see the Firebase Privacy Policy and Google Privacy Policy.

Advertising (Google AdMob)

The free version of the App displays ads provided by Google AdMob.
