Privacy Policy Snippet

💡 Where to add this: Place this section under "Analytics", "Third-Party Services", or "Data Collection" in your existing privacy policy.

Analytics

Our app uses Respectlytics, a privacy-focused analytics service, to help us understand how users interact with our app and improve our services.

Data collected for analytics:

Event names (actions taken within the app)
Temporary session identifiers (rotate every 2 hours on device, stored in anonymized form on servers)
General device information (platform, operating system version, device type, app version)
Language and locale settings
Approximate location (country and region level only)

How this data is handled:

Session identifiers are temporary and exist only in device memory (RAM)—they are never written to persistent storage
IP addresses are processed only to determine approximate location (country and region) and are immediately discarded—they are never stored
No device advertising identifiers (such as IDFA or GAID) are collected
No personal information (such as name, email, or phone number) is collected through analytics
Cross-session tracking is not possible due to the temporary nature of session identifiers

Analytics data is stored on servers located in the European Union and is used solely to improve our app. This data is not shared with third parties for advertising or marketing purposes.
