Privacy Policy
Last updated: November 18, 2025
Inkolab (“we”, “our”, “us”) develops mobile applications for iOS and Android.
We take your privacy seriously and design all our apps with a privacy-first approach.
This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and how we protect it.
This policy applies to all apps published by Inkolab.
1. Data We Collect
Most of our apps store all user data locally on the device.
We do not collect, store, or sell personal information.
We only collect the minimal data required to ensure the app works properly or to improve the overall experience.
Below is the detailed list of what may be collected depending on the app.
1.1 Analytics (Firebase Analytics)
Some apps use Firebase Analytics to understand app usage, improve features, and detect issues.
- No advertising ID (IDFA) is collected
- No data is used for advertising or profiling
- Analytics is anonymous and used strictly to improve the apps
Firebase may process:
- Device model
- OS version
- App version
- Events such as feature usage or errors

1.2 Crash Reporting (Firebase Crashlytics) – Android only
Our Android app use Firebase Crashlytics to help us diagnose and fix technical issues.
Crashlytics automatically collects anonymous technical information related to a crash, such as:
- device model
- operating system version
- app version
- stack traces and crash logs
- performance information at the time of the crash
This data helps us improve stability and does not include any personal information.
Crashlytics does not use advertising identifiers (IDFA).
Crashlytics Privacy: https://firebase.google.com/support/privacy
1.3. Purchases & Subscriptions (RevenueCat)
Apps using in-app purchases or subscriptions use RevenueCat to manage:
- purchase validation
- entitlement management
- subscription status
RevenueCat processes:
- an anonymous user identifier
- purchase history
- basic device information (for fraud prevention)
RevenueCat does not collect personal identity information.

1.4. Image Processing for Identification (Mineral Identifier AI & Buzzby – Bug Identifier)
When you submit an image for identification:
- The image is sent securely to an external AI service (GPT-Vision via AIProxy)
- The image is used only to generate the identification result
- Inkolab does not store the images
- No personal identifiers are attached
- Images are not reused, shared, or included in any dataset
This process is necessary for the core functionality of the app.
1.5. Feedback Submission (Couple Questions – Quple)
If you choose to submit feedback regarding a question in the app:
- The feedback is stored in Firebase Firestore
- No identifying information is attached
- Feedback is optional, anonymous, and used solely to improve questions and game content
- The app does not track the identity or identity of contributors
This is the only case where information is stored outside the user’s device.
1.6. Customer Support Emails
If you contact us via email (support@inkolab.app), we will receive your email address and message.
This information is used solely to answer your request.
We do not add it to any database and do not share it with third parties.
2. What We Do NOT Collect
For clarity, our apps do NOT collect:
- Names
- Email addresses (unless you email us)
- Dates of birth
- Photos stored on the device
- Health data
- Location data
- Contact lists
- Advertising identifiers
You remain fully in control of your data.
3. How Your Data Is Stored
Local Storage
All user-generated data in our apps is stored locally on your device, not on our servers.
Examples include:
- habit progress
- measurements
- app settings
- saved PDFs
- local preferences
- identification history
Deleting the app deletes all local data.
Cloud Storage (only for Quple Feedback)
Feedback submitted in Quple is stored in Google Cloud Firestore.
This data contains no identifiers.
4. How We Use Your Data
We use data strictly for:
- app functionality
- analytics to improve usability and reliability
- managing purchases and subscriptions
- generating identification results (AI image processing)
- optional feedback improvement (Quple)
- handling your support requests
We DO NOT use data for:
- advertising
- profiling
- selling data
- tracking users across apps or websites
Privacy-first is our default.
5. Data Sharing
We only share data with trusted service providers necessary for the app to function:
| Purpose | Provider | Data type | Notes |
| Analytics | Firebase Analytics | Anonymous usage data | No IDFA |
| Crash reporting | Firebase Crashlytics | Anonymous crash logs, stack traces, device model, OS version | Android only No personal data, no IDFA |
| Purchases | RevenueCat | A | No personal info |
| AI identification | AIProxy + OpenAI | Images (temporary) | Not stored |
| Feedback | Firebase Firestore | Anonymous content | Only in Quple |
6. International Data Transfers
Firebase, RevenueCat, AIProxy, and OpenAI may process data outside the EU, including the United States.
These providers rely on Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or equivalent protections to comply with GDPR.
7. Your Rights
Depending on your country, you may have rights to:
- access your data
- request deletion
- request correction
- object to processing
To exercise these rights, contact us:
Since most data is local, you may delete the app to remove all information stored on your device.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when needed.
