Poke Valuations — Privacy Policy

Circulaire ("we," "our," or "us") operates the Poke Valuations mobile application (the "App"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you use the App. By using Poke Valuations, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

1. Information We Do Not Collect

Poke Valuations does not require you to create an account or log in. We do not collect, store, or process personal information such as your name, email address, phone number, or mailing address.

2. Information Collected Automatically

When you use the App, certain information is collected automatically through third-party services:

Firebase Analytics (Google)

We use Firebase Analytics to understand how users interact with the App. This service may collect:

  • App usage data (e.g., screens viewed, features used, session duration)
  • Device information (e.g., device model, operating system version)
  • General location data (country/region level, derived from IP address)
  • App version and build number
  • Subscription tier and collection size (as anonymized user properties)

Firebase Analytics uses a randomly generated instance identifier; it does not use your name or email to identify you.

Firebase Crashlytics (Google)

We use Firebase Crashlytics to detect, diagnose, and fix crashes and performance issues. Crashlytics may collect:

  • Crash logs and stack traces
  • Device state at the time of a crash (e.g., device model, OS version, available memory)
  • A Crashlytics installation UUID (randomly generated, not tied to personal identity)

Firebase Cloud Messaging (Google)

We use Firebase Cloud Messaging to deliver push notifications. This service generates a device token used solely for routing notifications to your device. You may opt out of push notifications at any time through your device's Settings. The App subscribes your device to topic-based notification channels (e.g., "all_users," "pro_users," or "free_users") to deliver relevant content.

3. Card Images and Valuation Data

When you scan or upload a Pokemon card image for valuation, the image is transmitted to our server for processing. This transmission is used solely to identify the card and return a valuation result. Card images are sent as JPEG data along with your selected currency preference and device locale country. We do not permanently associate card images with any personal identifier.

Valuation results, including estimated values, condition assessments, and your card collection, are stored locally on your device. This data never leaves your device unless you initiate a new valuation request.

4. Subscription Information

If you subscribe to Poke Valuations Pro (monthly or yearly), your purchase is processed entirely by Apple through the App Store. We do not have access to your payment information, credit card details, or Apple ID. We only receive confirmation of your subscription status through Apple's StoreKit framework to unlock Pro features within the App.

5. Data Stored on Your Device

The following data is stored locally on your device and is not transmitted to our servers:

  • Your card collection and valuation history
  • Currency and display preferences
  • Subscription status
  • Notification preferences and FCM token
  • App usage counters (e.g., total valuations completed, first open date)

This data is stored in your device's local storage and can be removed by deleting the App.

6. Third-Party Services

The App relies on the following third-party services, each governed by their own privacy policies:

7. Children's Privacy

Poke Valuations is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the App, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.

8. Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect the data processed by the App. Card images are transmitted over HTTPS to our secure servers. Locally stored data is protected by your device's built-in security features.

9. Your Choices

  • Push Notifications: You can disable push notifications at any time through your device's Settings app.
  • Analytics: You can limit analytics data collection through your device's privacy settings (Settings > Privacy & Security > Analytics & Improvements on iOS).
  • Delete Your Data: Since data is stored locally on your device, uninstalling the App will remove all locally stored data.

10. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected by the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
