If you do not agree with any part of this Policy, please do not access, browse, or use our Services.
2. Information We Collect
2.1 We Do Not Collect Personally Identifiable Information (PII)
We do not collect personal information such as your name, address, email, phone number, or other identifiers that could be used to contact or identify you directly.
2.2 Non-Personal Information We May Collect
To improve our Services and analyze app usage, we may collect non-personally identifiable information, including:
Usage Data: Clicks, screen interactions, page transitions, and session durations.
Device Information: Device type, model, OS version, and anonymized device identifiers.
Log Data: IP address (truncated/anonymized where required), access time and date, language settings, and referring URLs.

2.3 User Feedback
If you contact us to report a bug, suggest improvements, or request support, we may collect the message content and any voluntary contact information you provide (e.g., email).
3. Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) Features
3.1 AI-Powered Recognition
Coin Lab offers coin recognition functionality that utilizes AI models provided by OpenAI and similar providers. When you scan a coin image:
The image may be temporarily sent to a third-party AI inference service (e.g., OpenAI) for analysis and classification.
All image data is processed anonymously, without attaching any personal identifiers.
We do not store your images permanently unless explicitly required for app features like history or user-requested bookmarking.
3.2 How We Use AI-Processed Data
We only use the results returned from AI providers to display identification or educational results to you in the app. These results are not used for profiling, marketing, or resale.
3.3 AI and Third-Party Providers
All AI processing is governed by the privacy policies and data handling practices of the AI provider (e.g., OpenAI’s privacy policy). We encourage you to review them separately.
4. How We Use Collected Information
We use the limited data we collect in the following ways:
To Improve Service Quality: Debug errors, monitor system performance, and improve app stability.
To Analyze Usage Trends: Understand user interaction patterns to optimize features.
To Support User Requests: Resolve issues and respond to feedback more effectively.
We do not use collected data for advertising, tracking, or profiling purposes.
5. Children’s Privacy
Our Services are not directed to children under the age of 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your jurisdiction), and we do not knowingly collect data from children.
If we learn we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child, we will delete it promptly.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has used our Services in violation of this Policy, please contact us immediately.
6. Security
We implement commercially reasonable technical and organizational safeguards to protect your data.
However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute data security.
