Buzzy Privacy Policy

Effective date: 2026-03-25

App: Buzzy

1. Who We Are

Controller: Dmytro Havrylenko, Ukraine. Contact: dmitro.havr.supp@gmail.com

This Privacy Policy explains how Buzzy (com.neirno.Buzzy) collects, uses, and shares information when you use the application.

2. Information We Collect

Buzzy does not require registration, user accounts, or email addresses. We do not operate our own servers and do not store your personal data on any backend.

2.1 Analytics Data (Firebase Analytics)

We collect anonymous usage events (e.g., screen views, popular vibration patterns) through Firebase Analytics. This data does not include personally identifiable information (PII) and helps us understand how the app is used.

2.2 Crash Reports (Firebase Crashlytics)

We collect crash logs through Firebase Crashlytics, including device model, OS version, stack traces, and app state at the time of the crash. This data is used solely to identify and fix bugs.

2.3 Advertising Data (Google AdMob)

Buzzy displays ads via Google AdMob. AdMob may collect:

  • Advertising identifier (IDFA) — only if you grant permission via App Tracking Transparency (ATT)
  • IP address and device information for ad delivery, frequency capping, and fraud prevention

If you decline the ATT prompt, you will see non-personalized ads.

2.4 Subscription Data (RevenueCat)

Buzzy offers subscriptions managed through RevenueCat. RevenueCat processes:

  • Anonymous app user ID
  • Purchase receipts and subscription status

We do not receive or store your payment card details. All payments are processed by Apple.

2.5 What Buzzy Does NOT Access

Buzzy does not access your camera, photo library, contacts, location, microphone, or any external APIs. The app uses only the device’s haptic engine (vibration motor) which does not involve any data collection.

3. How We Use Information

  • Vibration patterns: processed entirely on-device using the haptic engine; no data is collected or transmitted
  • Analytics: to understand which patterns are popular and improve the app
  • Crash reporting: to identify and fix bugs
  • Advertising: to display ads and measure ad performance
  • Subscriptions: to verify purchases and unlock premium patterns and features

4. Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services, each operating under their own privacy policies:

We do not sell your personal information to any third party.

5. IDFA and App Tracking Transparency

Buzzy requests permission via Apple’s App Tracking Transparency (ATT) framework before accessing the Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA). This identifier is used by AdMob to deliver personalized ads.

  • If you allow tracking: AdMob may use IDFA for personalized ad delivery.
  • If you decline tracking: you will receive non-personalized ads only.

You can change your choice at any time: Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.

6. Data Storage

  • All user preferences (saved patterns, intensity settings) are stored locally on your device.
  • We do not operate servers and do not store personal data remotely.
  • Third-party partners (Firebase, AdMob, RevenueCat) may process data on their own infrastructure according to their respective privacy policies.

7. Your Rights

GDPR (EEA/UK residents)

Under the General Data Protection Regulation, you have the right to:

  • Access the personal data we process about you
  • Rectification of inaccurate data
  • Erasure (“right to be forgotten”)

CCPA (California residents)

Under the California Consumer Privacy Act, you have the right to:

Uninstalling the app removes all locally stored data from your device.

8. Children’s Privacy

Buzzy is not directed at children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 (or under the minimum age required by applicable local law). If you believe a child has provided personal data, please contact us and we will take appropriate steps to delete it.

9. International Data Transfers

We do not operate our own servers. Our third-party partners may process data in various jurisdictions (including the EU and US) under their own policies and appropriate safeguards (such as Standard Contractual Clauses).
