1. WHAT INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT?

MyVase is built on a local-first privacy architecture. This means all of your personal session data stays on your device. We do not have access to it.

No Account Required: MyVase does not require you to create an account. We do not collect your name, email address, or any other personal identifying information.

A. Information Stored ONLY On Your Device (Local Data)

This is your private data. It is stored in the App's secure container on your iPhone (using Core Data and UserDefaults) and never transmitted to our servers.

• Reset Session Data: Session type (e.g., core reset, premium protocol), duration, completion status, and timestamps.
• User Settings: Audio, notification, and display preferences.
• Usage Tracking: A local-only counter for your weekly reset count (to enforce tier limits) and the week's start date.
• Subscription Status: A local copy of your current tier (free/premium), validated through Apple's StoreKit and RevenueCat.

B. Information Processed by Third-Party Services

To provide subscription services, certain information is processed by third-party services. We do not have direct access to this data.

• Apple Inc. (App Store & StoreKit): When you make a purchase, Apple processes your payment. We never see your credit card or financial data. We only receive a digital receipt from Apple to validate your purchase.
• RevenueCat, Inc.: We use RevenueCat to manage subscription status. They receive an anonymous App User ID and purchase receipt data. See RevenueCat's Privacy Policy.
• TelemetryDeck, Inc.: We use TelemetryDeck for privacy-first, anonymous usage analytics to improve our App. It does not collect any personal identifying information. See TelemetryDeck's Privacy Policy.

C. How Data is Handled by User Tier

• Free Users: All data is stored locally on your device.
• Premium Subscribers: All session data is stored locally. Subscription status is validated through Apple StoreKit and RevenueCat using an anonymous identifier.

2. HOW DO WE PROCESS YOUR INFORMATION?

We process your information for very limited purposes:

• Local Data is processed on your device to provide app features, such as showing your session history and enforcing weekly reset limits.
• Subscription Data is processed through Apple and RevenueCat to validate your premium subscription status.

3. WHAT LEGAL BASES DO WE RELY ON TO PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?

• Contractual Necessity (to provide the App): We process subscription validation data to fulfill our "contract" with you, which is to provide a working app and verify your subscription.
• Legitimate Interest (to improve the App): We have a legitimate business interest in ensuring our subscription system works properly.

4. WHEN AND WITH WHOM DO WE SHARE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?

We do not sell your data. We only work with essential service providers needed to run the App.

• Apple Inc. (App Store & StoreKit): Apple processes your payment if you subscribe. We never see your credit card or financial data. We only receive a digital receipt from Apple to validate your purchase.
• RevenueCat, Inc.: RevenueCat helps us manage subscription entitlements. They receive an anonymous App User ID and purchase receipts from Apple. They do not receive any personal identifying information from us.

5. DO WE USE COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES?

Yes. We use privacy-preserving analytics (TelemetryDeck) to improve the quality of our Services. This tool is configured to handle only anonymous, aggregated data and does not identify you personally. You can opt-out of this collection at any time in the App settings.

6. HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION?

• Local Data: Stored on your device permanently, until you delete the App from your iPhone.
• Subscription Data: RevenueCat retains subscription transaction data according to their data retention policy. This data is associated with an anonymous identifier, not your personal identity.

7. HOW DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION SAFE?

We protect your data in the best way possible:

1. By Not Collecting It: The best way we keep your sensitive session data safe is by never collecting it. It never leaves your device.
2. By Using Anonymous Identifiers: For subscription validation, we use randomly generated anonymous identifiers rather than personal information.

8. DO WE COLLECT INFORMATION FROM MINORS?

Our App is not marketed to or intended for children under 13, in compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). We do not knowingly collect any data from children under 13.

9. WHAT ARE YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS?

• Right to Access & Portability: You have full access to your session data at all times, as it is stored on your own device.
• Right to Deletion: You can delete all your local data by uninstalling the App from your iPhone.

10. CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES

We do not track our users in any way. Therefore, "Do-Not-Track" (DNT) signals are not applicable to our service.

11. DO UNITED STATES RESIDENTS HAVE SPECIFIC PRIVACY RIGHTS?

Yes (CCPA/CPRA). As a California resident, you have the right to know what data is collected.

• We DO NOT "sell" your personal information.
• We DO NOT "share" your personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.
• Right to Know/Access: You have the right to request what personal information we collect, use, and disclose. As outlined above, we collect minimal to no personal information.
• Right to Delete: You have the right to delete your data by uninstalling the App.
• Right to Non-Discrimination: We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights.

12. DO OTHER REGIONS HAVE SPECIFIC PRIVACY RIGHTS?

Yes (GDPR/UK GDPR). As a resident of the EEA or UK, you have rights to access, rectification, erasure, and portability of your data, as described in Section 9.

13. DATA WE DO NOT COLLECT

We are a privacy-first utility. We NEVER collect:

• Your name, email address, or any account information
• Usage analytics (beyond anonymous, aggregated data provided by TelemetryDeck)
• Location data
• Advertising identifiers (IDFA)
• Contact lists, photos, or camera access
• Microphone or audio data
• Device fingerprinting or cross-app tracking data

14. HOW WE USE YOUR INFORMATION

We use the limited information we have for a few simple purposes:

• Local Data: Processed on your device to show you your reset history, enforce weekly limits for free tiers, and save your settings.
• Subscription Data: Used to unlock Premium features on your device.
