PRIVACY POLICY

Last Updated: January 2025

1. Information We Collect

Smoke Count is designed with privacy in mind. We collect minimal information necessary to provide our service:

• Smoking Tracking Data: Information about your smoking habits (cigarettes per day, spending, quit date, etc.) is stored locally on your device. We do not collect or transmit this personal health information to our servers.

• Onboarding Information: Information you provide during onboarding (age, gender, goals, motivations) is stored locally on your device and is not transmitted to our servers.

• Device Information: Basic device information and app analytics (crashes, performance metrics) may be collected to improve the app experience.

• Subscription Information: If you purchase Premium, subscription and payment information is processed through the App Store or Play Store. We do not have access to your payment details.

Important: All smoking tracking and health-related data processing happens locally on your device. Your personal health data never leaves your device unless you explicitly choose to share it.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Provide, maintain, and improve the Smoke Count service

• Process your subscription and payments (handled by App Store/Play Store)

• Send you technical notices and support messages

• Analyze app usage patterns to improve performance and user experience

Your Smoking Tracking Data: All smoking tracking and analysis happens entirely on your device. Your personal health information, smoking habits, and progress data are stored locally and are never uploaded to any server or shared with third parties.

3. Data Storage and Security

Local Processing: All smoking tracking data, health information, and personal statistics are processed and stored locally on your device using secure local storage. This data remains on your device and is never transmitted to our servers.

Data Security: We implement appropriate technical measures to protect any information we may collect. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. Your local data is protected by your device's security features.

Your app settings, preferences, and locally stored smoking tracking data can be cleared at any time through your device settings, the app's reset feature, or by uninstalling the app.

4. Health Data Privacy

Your smoking tracking and health-related data is completely private and confidential. We do not access, view, share, sell, or use your personal health information for any purpose beyond displaying it to you within the app.

When you use Smoke Count, the app helps you track and manage your smoking habits. All data including cigarettes smoked, money spent, quit dates, and progress statistics is processed locally on your device without any network transmission.

Smoking Tracking: The app helps you track your smoking habits and progress. All tracking data including daily logs, statistics, and personal goals is stored locally on your device and is never shared with third parties or uploaded to any server.

HIPAA Compliance: While Smoke Count is not a covered entity under HIPAA, we treat your health-related data with the same level of care and privacy protection.

5. Permissions

Smoke Count requires the following permissions:

• Notification Permission: Optional, used only if you enable daily reminders for tracking your smoking habits and progress.

• Storage Permission: Used to store your tracking data locally on your device. This data never leaves your device.

We only request permissions that are necessary for the app's core functionality. You can revoke these permissions at any time through your device settings.

6. Third-Party Services

We may use third-party services for:

• RevenueCat for subscription management (if applicable)

• App Store and Play Store for subscription processing

• Analytics services (if enabled) for app performance monitoring

These services have their own privacy policies governing the use of your information. We do not share your smoking tracking data with any third-party services.

7. Data Retention

Smoking tracking data is stored locally on your device and is retained as long as the app is installed. You can clear this data at any time by:

• Clearing app data through your device settings

• Uninstalling the app

• Using the "Reset Progress" or "Start Over" features in app settings

We do not retain copies of your smoking tracking or health data on our servers, as this data never leaves your device.

• Access your smoking tracking data (displayed within the app)

• Control app permissions through your device settings

• Clear your data at any time by uninstalling the app or clearing app data
