Thank you for using the Nudibranch app, a tool designed to help divers, tidepoolers, and marine enthusiasts identify and learn about nudibranchs and other sea slugs found along the California coast. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting it. This document outlines what data the app does or does not collect, how it is handled, and how you can reach us for support.


Data Collection and Use

We believe in data minimalism. This app is built to function entirely on-device. We do not:
