Last updated: February 21, 2026

1. Introduction

Coffee Hunter ("we", "our", or "app") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our mobile application.

2. Data Collection and Storage

2.1 No Server-Side Data Collection

Coffee Hunter does NOT collect, store, or transmit any personal data to our servers or any third-party servers.

All data generated by the app is stored exclusively on your device using local storage mechanisms provided by your operating system.

2.2 Local Data Storage

The following information is stored locally on your device only:

• Favorite Coffee Shops: List of coffee shops you've marked as favorites
• Streaks: Your daily check-in streak count
• Badges: Achievements and badges you've earned
• App Preferences: Your settings and preferences within the app

2.3 Data Loss

Important: Since all data is stored locally on your device, uninstalling the app will permanently delete all your data, including favorites, streaks, and badges. We cannot recover this data as it is never transmitted to or stored on our servers.

3. Location Services

3.1 How We Use Location

Coffee Hunter uses your device's location services to:

• Show nearby coffee shops on the map
• Calculate distances to coffee shops
• Provide location-based search results

3.2 Location Data Privacy

Your location data is processed entirely on your device and is NEVER sent to our servers or any third parties.

Location information is used in real-time to display nearby coffee shops and is not stored permanently. You can control location permissions through your device settings at any time.

4. Third-Party Services

4.1 Map Services

Coffee Hunter uses third-party map services to display coffee shop locations. These services may collect anonymous usage data according to their own privacy policies:

• Apple Maps (iOS)
• Google Maps (Android)

Please review the privacy policies of these services for more information about their data practices.

4.2 Coffee Shop Data

Information about coffee shops (names, addresses, hours, etc.) is sourced from public mapping services and business directories. We do not collect or store this information ourselves.

5. Permissions

Coffee Hunter may request the following permissions:

• Location Services: Required to show nearby coffee shops and calculate distances
• Notifications (Optional): To remind you about streaks and achievements

You can manage these permissions through your device settings. Denying location permission will limit the app's ability to show nearby coffee shops.

6. Analytics and Tracking

Coffee Hunter does NOT use any analytics, tracking, or advertising services. We do not collect usage statistics, crash reports, or any other telemetry data.

7. Children's Privacy

Coffee Hunter does not knowingly collect any information from children. The app is designed for general audiences and does not require any personal information to function.

8. Data Security

Since all data is stored locally on your device, the security of your data depends on your device's security measures. We recommend:

• Keeping your device's operating system up to date
• Using device lock screens and passwords
• Being cautious about device access

9. Your Rights

Since we don't collect any data, you have complete control over your information:

• Access: All your data is accessible within the app
• Deletion: You can delete individual items or uninstall the app to remove all data
• Control: All data remains on your device under your control

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected in the app and on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. Continued use of the app after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
