Brew Mate - Privacy Policy
Last Updated: January 8, 2026
1. Information Collection and Use
We prioritize your privacy. The app is designed to store your data locally on your device.
- Personal Data: We do not collect, store, or share any personal data (such as name, email, phone number) on our servers.
- User Content: Your brew recipes, history logs, and tasting notes are stored in your device's local storage. We do not have access to this data.
- Images and Camera: You may take photos or select images from your gallery to enrich your brew logs. These images remain local on your device and are not uploaded to external servers.
- Usage Data: Anonymous, non-personal data (e.g., crash reports, device type) may be collected to improve app stability and performance.
2. App Permissions
Certain permissions are requested for the app to function correctly; you can revoke these permissions at any time via device settings:
- Camera and Photo Gallery: Used only to allow you to add images to your brew history. Photos are not accessed for any other purpose.
- Notifications: Local notifications are used to alert you when your brew timers (e.g., Cold Brew) are complete. These are scheduled locally on your device, not sent from a remote server.
3. In-App Purchases and Subscriptions
The app may offer paid features or subscriptions ("Pro"). All financial transactions are handled by the Apple App Store or Google Play Store; your credit card or billing information is processed or stored by them, not us.
4. Third-Party Services
We may use third-party services to facilitate app functionality:
- Apple / Google: For app distribution and payment processing.
5. Data Security
Since your data is stored locally on your device, its security depends on the security of your device. We recommend keeping your device software up to date.
6. Children's Privacy
The app is not intended for use by children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
7. 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 policy on this page.
