Privacy Policy
This policy explains what information the Aiify app handles, why, and the choices you have. Aiify is made by Handy Apps Pro ("we", "us"). If you have any questions, email us at handyappsteam@gmail.com.
- Your poems and stories are saved only on your phone.
- The ideas you type are sent to an AI service to write your poem or story. We don't keep them unless you report a result.
- We use Google Firebase to understand how the app is used and to fix crashes. It never receives what you type.
- We don't sell your data and the app has no ads.
1. Ideas you type and the AI service
When you create a poem or story, the app sends your idea and the options you picked (for example style, mood, length and language) to our server, which runs on Cloudflare Workers. The server passes them to our AI provider, DeepSeek, which writes the text and sends it back to your phone.
- We do not store your ideas or the generated text on our server, except when you report a result (see section 2).
- DeepSeek processes the request on its servers in the People's Republic of China and handles it under its own terms and privacy policy.
- Please don't type personal information (such as full names, addresses, phone numbers or anything private) into your ideas.
- To keep the app suitable for everyone, ideas and results are checked automatically, and requests for explicit, hateful or harmful content are refused.
2. Poems and stories you create
Everything you create and every favourite you mark is stored only on your device. We cannot see it. You can delete items one by one in the Library, delete everything under Settings → Clear library, or remove it all by uninstalling the app. If Android backup is turned on for your device, your phone may include this data in its own backup, which is handled by Google under your Google account.
Reporting content. If you tap Report on a poem or story, the app sends us that poem or story (title and text), the reason you chose, the note you add (optional), the app language and whether it is a poem or a story. We store the report on our server (Cloudflare) for up to 180 days so we can review it and improve our safety checks, then it is deleted automatically. Reports don't include your name, contact details or any device ID. Please don't write personal information in the note.
3. Analytics (Firebase Analytics)
We use Google Firebase Analytics to learn which features people use so we can improve the app. It collects:
- app events we define, such as screens opened, a poem or story being created, the options chosen (style, mood, genre, length, language) and whether it succeeded;
- standard usage information such as sessions, app version, device model, operating system version, language, approximate region derived from your IP address, an app instance ID that Firebase creates, and your device's advertising ID. You can reset or delete the advertising ID at any time in your phone's settings (Settings → Privacy → Ads, or Settings → Google → Ads).
Firebase Analytics never receives the text you type or the poems and stories you create. It is provided by Google; see Firebase privacy and security and the Google Privacy Policy. Data is kept according to Google Analytics' retention settings.
4. Crash reports (Firebase Crashlytics)
If the app crashes or hits an unexpected error, Firebase Crashlytics sends a report so we can fix it. A report includes technical details such as the error and where in the code it happened, device model, operating system version, app version, the time, and a random installation ID. It does not include your ideas, poems or stories. Crashlytics keeps crash reports for up to 90 days.
5. Our server and hosting
Our server runs on Cloudflare. Like any internet service, Cloudflare receives your IP address and basic request information in order to deliver the request, and may keep limited logs for security and reliability under the Cloudflare Privacy Policy. Our own code does not store IP addresses, and reports (section 2) are stored without them.
6. What we don't do
- We don't show ads or use your data for advertising.
- We don't sell or rent personal data.
- We don't access your contacts, photos, location (GPS), microphone or camera.
7. Why we process data
We process the information above to provide the features you ask for (writing poems and stories), to keep the service safe (content checks), and for our legitimate interest in understanding usage and fixing problems (analytics and crash reports).
8. International transfers
Our service providers may process data in countries other than yours, including the United States (Google, Cloudflare) and the People's Republic of China (DeepSeek). These countries may have different data protection laws from yours.
9. Children
Aiify is designed to be family-friendly, but it is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us and we will help remove it.
10. Deleting your data
You can delete your data at any time, without contacting us:
- Poems, stories and favourites: delete single items in the Library, or everything at once in Settings → Clear library. They are removed from your phone immediately.
- Everything the app stores on your phone (creations and language choice): go to your phone's Settings → Apps → Aiify → Storage → Clear storage, or uninstall the app. This also resets the Firebase app instance ID, so new analytics and crash data can't be linked to your earlier use.
- Ideas you typed: nothing to delete on our side. We don't store them; our server only passes them to the AI provider to create your poem or story.
- Reports you sent: deleted automatically after 180 days. Because reports are anonymous, email us with roughly when you sent it and what it was about if you'd like it removed sooner.
- Analytics and crash data held by Google Firebase: this data isn't linked to your name or contact details. Crash reports are deleted automatically after 90 days and analytics data within 14 months at most. If you'd like it deleted sooner, email us (see below).
To ask us to delete data, or for any other request, email handyappsteam@gmail.com with the subject "Data deletion". We will reply within 30 days. Because we don't know who you are, we may need details that help us find the data (such as roughly when you used the app); if we can't identify it, it is still removed automatically on the schedule above.
11. Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct or delete personal data about you, to object to or restrict its processing, and to complain to your local data protection authority. Contact us at handyappsteam@gmail.com to use these rights.
12. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as the app changes. The date at the top shows the latest version. Significant changes will be announced in the app or on its store page.
