This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and what rights you have in relation to it.

1. What Data Do We Collect?

To provide our services, we collect the following types of information:

• Information You Provide to Us:

Google Account Data:
When you sign in with your Google Account, we receive access to your name, email address, and profile picture.
We use this information to create your in-app profile.
Your Card Collection:
All cards you scan or add manually (including their quantity, price, folder, and date added) are saved and linked to your account.
Chat Messages:
The content of your messages, both in public chat rooms and in private conversations, is stored on our servers.

• Information Collected Automatically:

Usage and Device Data:
Through third-party services (Google Firebase), we may collect anonymous information about how you use the app (e.g., which features are most popular) and about your device (e.g., model, operating system) to fix bugs and improve the app.
Crash Information:
In the event of an app crash, anonymous technical data is automatically collected to help us diagnose and fix the problem.

2. How Do We Use Your Data?

We use your data to:

Provide and improve our services – to enable you to scan cards, manage your collection, and use the chat feature.
Synchronize your collection – linking your collection to your account allows access across devices and ensures data safety after reinstalling the app.
Personalize the experience – to display your profile and collection.
Process payments – purchases of the Premium version are processed securely via Google Play. We do not have access to your payment details.
Display advertisements – the free version of the app may show personalized ads from partners (Google AdMob).

3. Who Do We Share Your Data With?

Your privacy is important to us.
We do not sell your personal data. We share it only in the following cases:

With Service Providers:
We use services from Google (Firebase, Google Play, Google AdMob) for authentication, storage, analytics, and ads.
These providers have their own privacy policies.
Publicly:
Your username and public chat messages are visible to all users in those chat channels.
For Legal Reasons:
We may disclose your data if required by law.

4. Data Security

We take reasonable steps to protect your data using industry-standard security measures (such as encryption and database access rules).
However, please note that no online system is 100% secure.

5. Your Rights (Data Deletion)

Your data (profile and collection) is stored as long as you have an active account.
You may delete your account at any time, which will permanently remove all related data from our servers.

6. Children’s Privacy

Our app is not intended for children under 13 years of age (or the applicable age in your country).
We do not knowingly collect personal data from children.
