1. Overview

Flashcardit is a learning application that enables users to create, organize, and study flashcards, quizzes, notes, and other educational content.

Flashcardit follows a local-first architecture. User data is primarily stored on the user's device and is not transmitted to developer-controlled servers except when the user explicitly chooses to use third-party services.

This Privacy Policy explains what information may be processed by Flashcardit, how it is used, and when it may be shared with third-party services.

2. Information We Process

Flashcardit may process information provided directly by users, including:

- Flashcards, study decks, quizzes, notes, and educational content created within the application

- Text entered by the user

- Files imported by the user

- AI prompts and study content submitted through optional AI features

- Text explicitly sent by the user to Google Translate

- Search queries explicitly sent by the user to Google Search

- Data processed through the optional local REST API

Imported files may contain personal information selected by the user. Users are responsible for reviewing imported content before using external services.

Flashcardit does not intentionally collect passwords, financial information, contact lists, government identifiers, or other sensitive personal information.

3. How We Use Information

Information processed by Flashcardit is used solely to provide application functionality, including:

- Creating and managing flashcards and study materials

Flashcardit does not use user data for advertising, profiling, behavioral tracking, or marketing purposes.

4. AI Features and Third-Party AI Services

Flashcardit provides optional AI-powered features using a Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) model with OpenRouter.

- Flashcardit does not provide, host, own, or operate any AI models or AI servers.

- Users may enter and manage their own OpenRouter API key within the application.

- Flashcardit does not provide OpenRouter accounts, API keys, billing services, or AI subscriptions.

- When AI features are used, user input is sent directly from the user's device to OpenRouter and/or the AI model provider selected through OpenRouter.

- API keys are stored locally on the user's device and are not transmitted to, stored by, or accessible to the Flashcardit developer.

- Users are responsible for protecting and managing their own API keys.

- Flashcardit does not collect, monitor, log, or store AI prompts, AI responses, API requests, or API usage on developer-controlled servers.

- The handling, retention, logging, and processing of AI data is governed by OpenRouter and any AI providers selected through OpenRouter.

- Users can configure privacy, logging, and provider data-retention settings through their OpenRouter account.

- Flashcardit has no control over the privacy practices, security policies, data retention policies, or model training practices of third-party AI services.

- Communications with third-party services typically use HTTPS/TLS encryption when supported by those services.

- No method of electronic storage or internet transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Users acknowledge the risks associated with transmitting data to third-party services.

11. Data Retention

- Flashcardit does not store user data on developer-controlled servers.

- User data remains on the user's device until deleted by the user.

- Users may delete flashcards, study materials, and other content at any time.

- Uninstalling Flashcardit generally removes locally stored application data unless separately backed up by the user.

12. Children's Privacy

Flashcardit does not knowingly collect personal data from children. The application is intended for general educational use. 

13. International Use

Third-party services used by Flashcardit may process data in countries other than the user's country of residence.

Such processing is governed by the privacy policies and legal requirements applicable to those third-party services.
