|
|
|
## 1. Introduction
|
|
|
|
Welcome to **Cardly** ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how our mobile application (the "App") collects, uses, and safeguards your information.
|
|
|
|
By downloading and using Cardly, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.
|
|
|
|
## 2. Information We Collect
|
|
|
|
We collect a limited amount of information to provide the features of the App.
|
|
|
|
### A. Device Permissions and Data
|
|
To function correctly, Cardly requires access to certain features on your device:
|
|
|
|
* **Camera and Photo Gallery:** We Request access to your camera and photo library to allow you to upload custom cover images for your flashcard decks. Images are uploaded to our secure storage provider (Supabase) and are only used for displaying your deck covers.
|
|
* **Usage Stats (Package Usage Stats):** We use the `PACKAGE_USAGE_STATS` permission to enable "Focus Mode." This feature monitors which apps you are currently using to block distracting apps while you are studying. **We do not store, sell, or share your usage history.** This data is processed locally on your device to trigger the blocking mechanism.
|
|
* **System Alert Window (Overlay):** We use the "Display over other apps" permission to show the Focus Mode blocking screen when you attempt to open a restricted app during a study session.
|
|
|
|
### B. Account Information
|
|
If you create an account, we store your authentication credentials (via email or social login) and user profile information consistent with our backend provider, Supabase. This includes your:
|
|
* Email address
|
|
* User ID
|
|
* Flashcard data (Decks, Cards, Progress)
|
|
|
|
## 3. How We Use Your Information

|
|
|
We use the collected information for the following purposes:
|
|
* **Core Functionality:** To allow you to create flashcards, study them, and upload associated images.
|
|
* **Focus Mode:** To detect distracting apps and intervene to help you stay focused.
|
|
* **Sync:** To synchronize your study progress and decks across multiple devices.
|
|
|
|
**We do not sell your personal data to third parties.**
