Privacy Policy
Last Updated: April 25, 2025
Welcome to EPYRE ("we," "us," or "our"). Protecting your private information is our priority. This Privacy Policy governs data collection and usage through our application and services (the "Service") and describes how we handle your information. By using the Service, you consent to the data practices described in this statement. If you disagree with any part of this policy, please discontinue use of the Service immediately.
1. Information We Collect
We collect information to provide and improve our Service. This includes:
a) Information You Provide
- Authentication Details: When using Google Sign-In (via Firebase Authentication), we receive profile data from Google (name, email, profile picture) based on your permissions. This is used for account identification and basic personalization within the Service.
- User Content: Files or data you explicitly upload or create within the Service (e.g., images via Firebase Storage) are stored to provide the intended functionality.
b) Automatically Collected Usage Data
We utilize Google Analytics (via Firebase Analytics) to understand how our Service is used. This involves collecting anonymized, aggregated data about your interactions, such as:
- General device characteristics (type, OS, browser).
- Interaction patterns (features used, pages viewed, session duration).
- Approximate geographic location (country/city level).
Our use of this analytics data is strictly for internal purposes to improve the Service. We review trends in an aggregated, anonymous form and do not attempt to identify individual users through this data. We do not sell this analytics data.
c) Firebase Service Data
Our application relies on Google's Firebase platform. Data processing occurs within this infrastructure, involving services like:
- Firebase Authentication (User Login)
- Firestore Database (Application Data Storage)
- Firebase Storage (File Storage)
- Firebase Analytics (Usage Statistics)
- Cloud Functions (Backend Logic)
- Firebase Hosting (Application Delivery)
Google's handling of data within Firebase is governed by their policies. Please review the Google Privacy Policy and Firebase Privacy information.
2. How We Use Your Information
The information collected is used primarily to:
- Operate, maintain, and provide the features of the Service.
- Authenticate your access and manage your account.
- Store and retrieve your user-generated content.
- Analyze anonymized usage data via Google Analytics to identify trends and improve the Service.
- Maintain the security and integrity of our systems.
- Comply with legal and regulatory requirements.
3. Sharing and Disclosure of Information
We value your privacy and limit information sharing. We do not sell your personal information. Disclosure occurs only under specific circumstances:
- Service Providers (Google/Firebase): Data is processed by Google as necessary to provide the underlying Firebase infrastructure, according to their terms and privacy policies.
- Legal Requirements: We may disclose information if legally compelled to do so (e.g., by subpoena, court order) or if we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, prevent fraud, ensure safety, or comply with the law.
- Business Transfers: If EPYRE is involved in a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, user information may be transferred as part of that transaction, under confidentiality terms.
Outside of these specific situations, your personally identifiable information is not shared with third parties without your explicit consent.
4. Data Security
We rely on Google Cloud's infrastructure and security practices for data storage and protection. While robust measures are in place, no system is infallible. We cannot guarantee absolute security against all potential threats. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials.
5. Your Choices and Rights
Regarding data collected via Google Analytics, you can manage your choices through Google's tools:
- Learn about Google's practices: How Google uses data when you use our partners' sites or apps.
- Opt-out of Google Analytics: Install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to access, correct, or request deletion of your personal information held by us. Please contact us to make such requests.
6. Children's Privacy
The Service is not intended for individuals under the age of 13 (or applicable legal age). We do not knowingly collect data from children. If you become aware that a child has provided us with personal information without parental consent, please contact us immediately.
7. Policy Updates
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. Changes will be reflected by the "Last Updated" date at the top. We encourage you to review this policy regularly to stay informed about how we protect your information.
