Privacy Policy

Last Updated: August 11, 2026

1. Introduction

Hugo Prione Duarte ("we," "us," "our," or "Company") operates the SmartTracker App (the "App"), available on iOS, iPadOS, and macOS. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information in connection with the App and our commitment to protecting your privacy.

We are committed to maintaining the highest standards of privacy protection. Our App is designed with privacy as a core principle—we do not collect personal data from our users.

2. Information We Collect

We do not collect any personal data from users of the App. This includes, but is not limited to:

• Personal identification information (name, email address, phone number)
• Device identifiers
• Location data
• Browsing or usage history within the App
• Search queries or product tracking data

All data related to your price tracking activities is stored exclusively on your device or in your personal iCloud account. We have no access to, and do not collect, any of this information.

3. Analytics and App Store Connect

The only data we receive is aggregated, non-personal analytics data through Apple's App Store Connect platform. This data may include:

• General usage statistics
• App performance metrics
• Crash reports (without personal identifiers)
• App version and device type information

This information is provided by Apple and does not identify you individually. We use this data solely to improve the App's performance and user experience.

4. Website Analytics (smarttracker.tech)

The information in Sections 2 and 3 above describes the SmartTracker app, which collects no personal data. This section covers the separate SmartTracker website at https://smarttracker.tech.

The website uses Google Analytics 4, a service provided by Google LLC, to understand how the site is used. Unlike the App, this does involve processing personal data, and we ask for your consent before it happens.

We ask first. Google Analytics is loaded with Google Consent Mode v2 and every storage type set to "denied" by default. On your first visit you will see a banner with two equally available choices, Accept and Decline.

If you accept:

• Cookies are set on your browser by Google Analytics (typically _ga and _ga_*), used to recognise returning visits.
• Your IP address is processed by Google in order to derive an approximate location (country/region). Google Analytics 4 does not store IP addresses in its reports.
• Aggregate behaviour is recorded: pages viewed, referring source, approximate location, device and browser type, scroll depth, and which buttons and links you click.

If you decline, or ignore the banner entirely:

• No cookies are set and no identifiers are stored on your device.
• We receive only anonymous, cookieless, aggregate counts — a page was viewed, with no way to connect it to you or to any other visit.
• Declining is treated exactly the same as never answering. It is not a temporary state that later flips to consent.

You can change your mind at any time by clearing this site's data in your browser, which resets your stored choice and shows the banner again.

What we never do: we do not sell your data, we do not use Google Signals, we do not enable advertising personalisation or remarketing, and we run no ads on this site.

The website analytics are entirely separate from the SmartTracker app. The app itself still collects nothing (see Section 2) — nothing in this section changes that.

For more information about how Google processes this data, see https://policies.google.com/privacy and https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/11593727 (Google Analytics and data privacy).

5. Third-Party Services

The App does not integrate with any third-party services, SDKs, or analytics platforms. We do not share App data with third parties, advertisers, or marketing companies.

The website uses one third-party processor, Google LLC, for the analytics described in Section 4, and only where you have consented. This means data may be transferred to and processed on Google's infrastructure outside your country — see Section 15. We share no data with advertisers or marketing companies from either the App or the website.

6. Data Storage and Security

• On-Device Storage: All of your price tracking data remains stored on your device
• iCloud Synchronization: The App supports iCloud synchronization to sync your data across your Apple devices. This synchronization is managed entirely by Apple's iCloud service, and we have no access to, nor do we store, your iCloud data on our servers
• No Server Infrastructure: We do not maintain any servers or databases that store user information

Your data is protected by your device's security features and Apple's iCloud encryption standards.

7. Data Retention

We do not retain any personal data. Since we do not collect personal information from users, there is no data retention period. Your price tracking data remains under your control on your device and iCloud account.

8. User Authentication

The App does not require user authentication, login credentials, or account creation. You can use the App immediately upon download without providing any personal information.

9. In-App Purchases

The App offers two paid options to unlock Premium features:

• A one-time, non-consumable purchase for lifetime access.
• An auto-renewing annual subscription, billed yearly through your Apple ID.

Both options unlock the same Premium features. The free version of the App does not contain advertisements.

Payment processing. All in-app purchases — including subscription renewals — are handled exclusively by Apple through the App Store and your Apple ID. Apple collects and processes payment information according to their own privacy terms. We do not have access to your payment method, billing address, transaction history, or subscription identifiers. The App receives only the local StoreKit entitlement status (a flag indicating whether Premium is unlocked on the device) and never transmits any of this information to us.

Subscription management. If you choose the annual subscription, renewals and cancellations are managed entirely through your Apple ID settings (on iOS: Settings > Apple ID > Subscriptions; on macOS: System Settings > Apple ID > Media & Purchases > Manage). The Developer cannot initiate, modify, or cancel renewals on your behalf.

Family Sharing. Both Premium options support Apple Family Sharing. Sharing is managed by Apple through your Family group settings; the App is not informed which family member purchased the entitlement.

10. Children's Privacy

The App does not knowingly collect any information from children under 13 years of age (or the applicable age of digital consent in your jurisdiction). The App is suitable for all ages, as no data collection occurs. If you believe we have inadvertently collected information from a child, please contact us immediately.

11. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have certain rights regarding your personal data:

• Right to Access: Since we do not collect personal data, there is no personal data for us to provide
• Right to Deletion: No personal data is collected for deletion
• Right to Opt-Out: Not applicable, as no data collection occurs
• Data Portability: Since we do not collect or store your data, this right does not apply

All of your App data remains entirely under your control on your device and iCloud account.

12. Compliance with Regulations

We are committed to complying with applicable privacy laws and regulations, including:

• GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) for users in the European Union
• CCPA (California Consumer Privacy Act) for users in California
• LGPD (Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados) for users in Brazil
• Other applicable privacy laws globally

Our privacy-first approach ensures compliance with these regulations by design. Since we do not collect personal data, we do not process personal data in ways that would trigger regulatory obligations.

13. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements, or other factors. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the new Privacy Policy within the App or on our website and updating the "Last Updated" date. Your continued use of the App following the posting of revised Privacy Policy means you accept and agree to the changes.

14. Contact Us

If you have any questions, concerns, or requests regarding this Privacy Policy or our privacy practices, please contact us at:

Hugo Prione Duarte Email: hugo@hprione.com Location: Uberlândia, Minas Gerais, Brazil

We will respond to all inquiries as promptly as possible, typically within 30 days of receipt.

15. International Data Transfers

Since the App does not collect personal data, international data transfer provisions do not apply. Your data remains on your device and iCloud account under Apple's data processing terms.

16. Your Responsibilities

To maintain the privacy of your App data:

• Keep your device secure with a strong passcode or biometric authentication
• Maintain your iCloud account security with a strong password
• Review Apple's privacy and security practices for iCloud

By using the SmartTracker App, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and agree to its terms.
