Privacy Policy

Our services are not directed at children under the age of 16. By using our services, you confirm that you are at least 16 years old, or that you have obtained parental or guardian consent if you are a minor in your jurisdiction. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If we learn that we have done so, we will delete that information promptly.

We collect information in the following ways:

• Information you provide directly — such as your email address, name, or other contact details when you reach out to us or create an account.
• Usage data — information about how you interact with our apps and website, including pages visited, features used, and session duration.
• Device information — device type, operating system, browser type, and IP address.
• Cookies and similar technologies — as described in our Cookie Policy.

We use the information we collect to:

• Provide, operate, and improve our services
• Respond to your inquiries and provide support
• Send transactional communications (e.g., account confirmations)
• Analyze usage patterns to improve product experience
• Comply with legal obligations

We process your information only when we have a valid legal basis — including your consent, a contractual obligation, a legitimate interest, or a legal requirement. We do not use your information for direct marketing without your explicit consent.

We may disclose your personal information to third parties in limited circumstances:

• Service providers — third parties who assist us in operating our services (e.g., analytics providers, hosting), bound by confidentiality obligations.
• Legal requirements — when required by applicable law, regulation, or legal process.
• Business transfers — in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or part of our business.

We do not sell your personal information.

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is completely secure. You use our services at your own risk with respect to transmission.

Appthoria is headquartered in the UAE, with team members across Southeast Asia. Your personal information may be processed in countries outside your own. When we transfer data internationally, we use appropriate safeguards — such as the European Commission's standard contractual clauses — to ensure your information remains protected.

We retain personal information for as long as necessary to provide our services, fulfill the purposes described in this policy, or as required by law. When information is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymize it.

Depending on your location, you may have the following rights regarding your personal information:

• The right to access the information we hold about you
• The right to correct inaccurate or incomplete information
• The right to request erasure of your information
• The right to restrict or object to certain processing
• The right to data portability
• The right to withdraw consent at any time

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at legal@appthoria.dev. We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law.
