1. Data Collection and Storage Forge is designed as an "offline-first" application.

• Local Storage: All data created by the user (Ideas, Frameworks, Frames, Tasks) is stored locally on the device using SharedPreferences and JSON files.

• No External Servers: We do not operate a backend server. We do not collect, store, or transfer your project data to any external cloud database.

2. Data Backup The application includes a Backup & Restore feature.

• User Control: Exports are initiated solely by the user.

• Format: Data is exported as a JSON file. The user is responsible for the storage and security of this file (e.g., saving it to Google Drive or local storage).

3. Permissions The app minimizes permission usage. Any permission requested is strictly for the app's core functionality (e.g., file access for backup/restore).

4. Analytics and Third-Party Services We do not use third-party analytics tools that track user behavior within the project data.

5. Contact If you have any questions or suggestions regarding this privacy policy, please contact us with the dedicated button in the app.
