Privacy Policy
This policy explains what Smokeline (the "app", "we") does with information. Smokeline has no account system, and the cook plans you create stay on your device. We do not run a server that stores your personal data.
1. Your plans on your device
Cook plans, cook logs (temperatures, notes and any photos you attach), settings and preferences are stored locally on your device. We do not upload, collect or receive them.
2. No account
You do not need to provide a name, email address or phone number to use Smokeline.
3. Analytics and crash reports
We use Google Firebase Analytics and Firebase Crashlytics to understand anonymous usage and to find and fix crashes. These services may collect device and app information such as device model, Android version, app version, crash traces, an app-instance identifier and an approximate region derived from your IP address. We do not use this data to identify you. See the Google Privacy Policy and Firebase privacy information.
4. Advertising
The free version shows ads provided by Google AdMob: banner, interstitial, rewarded and app open ads. AdMob may collect and use device identifiers (such as the advertising ID), IP address, approximate location, diagnostic data and ad interaction data to serve and measure ads and, where you permit it, to personalise them. Smokeline Pro removes ads.
- Consent: where required, for example in the EEA and UK or in some US states, we show a consent form (Google User Messaging Platform) before requesting ads so you can accept, refuse or change your choices.
- Advertising ID: you can reset or delete your advertising ID in your Android settings under Privacy > Ads.
See how Google uses data in advertising.
5. Purchases
Smokeline Pro is an in-app purchase handled by Google Play. We use RevenueCat to validate purchases and manage your Pro access. RevenueCat receives your purchase information and an anonymous app user ID generated for your installation. We do not receive your payment details. See the RevenueCat Privacy Policy.
6. Device permissions
Smokeline asks for permission to show notifications (Android 13 and later) so it can alert you when a cooking step is due. You can also optionally allow exact alarms so alerts arrive on the minute. If you attach a photo to a cook log, you choose it with the Android system picker; the app does not get access to your other photos. Smokeline does not ask for your location, microphone or contacts.
7. Sharing
We do not sell your personal information. Information goes only to the providers named above (Google for Firebase, AdMob and Google Play, and RevenueCat for purchases), which process it to provide their services, or where required by law.
8. Retention and deletion
Data on your device stays there until you delete it; uninstalling the app removes it. Analytics, crash and purchase data held by our providers is kept under their policies and linked only to anonymous identifiers that we cannot look up. To ask about data linked to your identifiers, email us.
9. Your rights
Depending on where you live (for example the EEA, UK or California), you may have rights to access, correct, delete or object to the processing of personal data. For any request, contact berkantc93@gmail.com.
10. Children
Smokeline is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
11. Changes
We may update this policy. The effective date above shows the latest version.
