This Privacy Policy (the "Policy") sets out how user information is handled in "Trace" (the "App"). The developer (the "Developer") handles user information appropriately in accordance with this Policy.
1. Information We Collect
1.1 Information stored on your device
- The activities you record (category name, start time, color, and similar record content), your category settings, and your notification/widget settings.
All of the above is stored only on your device and is never sent to the Developer's servers. The App does not ask you to enter personal information such as your name, address, phone number, or email address.
1.2 Voice input (speech recognition)
- The App has an optional feature to enter an activity name by voice, using your device's microphone. Speech recognition uses Apple's Speech framework, and part of the recognition process may be performed on Apple's servers. Please see Apple's Privacy Policy for how Apple handles this data.
- The microphone and speech recognition are only activated when you use this feature; the App does not record continuously.
1.3 Photo library
- If you attach a photo to a record as a memo, the App only accesses the specific photo you choose. Photos are never sent to the Developer's servers.
1.4 Notifications
- The App's notifications are local notifications on your device. Scheduling and display happen entirely on the device; no push notification token is sent to the Developer's servers. Notifications are off by default.
1.5 Purchase information
- In-app purchases (subscriptions) are processed by Apple (App Store), and purchase status is managed using RevenueCat. The Developer never holds payment information such as credit card numbers.
- To manage purchase status, an anonymous identifier tied to the purchase (a RevenueCat user ID) and the purchase/renewal state are used. These are not linked to personal information such as your name or email address.
1.6 Information we do NOT collect
- The App does not access your location or contacts.
- The App does not use third-party analytics tools that track behavior (Google Analytics, Firebase, etc.) or any advertising service.
2. Purpose of Use
- To provide and operate the App's features, such as recording and displaying activities, statistics, widget display, and notifications.
- To provide the voice-input feature.
- To provide in-app purchases and manage purchase status.
- To keep the App running reliably, address defects, prevent misuse, and improve quality and features.
3. Provision to Third Parties / External Services
Except as required by law, the Developer does not provide user information to third parties. However, to the extent necessary to provide and operate the App, the Developer entrusts the handling of information to the following external services, which may process information (including outside your country) to the extent necessary.
- Apple (speech recognition; payment processing for in-app purchases)
- RevenueCat (management of in-app purchases)
4. GDPR and Overseas Laws
The App respects data protection laws of each country, including the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
- Data minimization: The App processes only the minimum information necessary to provide its functions, on the device, and does not collect personally identifiable information on external servers.
- Data control: You can delete all app data stored on your device by uninstalling the App.
- Lawful basis for purchase data: Processing related to purchase-status management is carried out to the extent necessary to provide the purchase/subscription service (performance of a contract).
5. Retention Period
Information stored on your device remains on the device while you use the App, or until you delete it or uninstall the App. Information related to purchase-status management is retained only for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of use.
6. Security Measures
The Developer takes necessary and appropriate measures to prevent leakage, loss, or damage of the information obtained, and to otherwise manage it safely.
7. Disclosure, Correction, and Deletion
You may request disclosure, correction, or deletion of your own information held by the Developer. We may ask you to verify your identity. Because the App does not usually obtain identifying information and most data is stored on your device, it may be difficult for the Developer to identify you; on-device data can be deleted by uninstalling the App.
8. Changes
The Developer may revise this Policy in response to changes in laws or the service. If there are material changes, we will notify you within the App or by a method the Developer deems appropriate.
