## 1. Information We Collect
### 1.1 Customer Information (User-Entered)
As a tailor using this app, you may enter the following information about your customers:
- **Personal details:** Customer name, phone number, email address, and physical address
- **Notes:** Free-text notes related to the customer
This data is entered by you (the tailor) and stored locally on your device. You are the data controller for your customers' personal information (see Section 8).

**Important clarification:** These are physical body measurements taken for the purpose of garment tailoring. They are **not** medical or health data. However, we recognize that body measurement data can be considered sensitive personal information, as it describes a person's physical dimensions. We treat this data with appropriate care:
