Privacy Policy
Introduction
At Omi, we take your privacy seriously. This privacy policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our Pokemon TCG card scanner app and website.
What We Don't Collect
We believe in privacy-first design. Here's what we don't collect:
- Your Pokemon card collection data
- Personal contact information
- Your precise location (an approximate country or region is estimated from your IP address for anonymous statistics)
- Your camera images (cards are recognised on your device; the only exception is the cropped card picture from a failed scan, described below)
- Your name, email address or any account login
What We Do Collect
We collect only anonymous usage data to improve our app:
- Feature usage, for example which screens are opened, scans, searches and paywall views (anonymous)
- App and device information: app version, iOS version, device model, app language, region and currency
- A random app ID that is not linked to your name or email, and whether you have an active subscription
- Crash and performance data (anonymous)
To show prices, the app sends the card you look up (for example its name, set and number) to our price server. This request contains no personal information.
Card pictures from failed scans. When a scan fails, a small cropped picture of the card only (not the rest of the camera image) is sent to our server so we can improve recognition. These pictures are stored without location or other photo metadata, are not linked to your identity, and are deleted after 30 days. From version 1.4.1, when you confirm which card it was, that picture also helps your own later scans of the same card; it is stored for up to 180 days under a scrambled (hashed) app ID and is never shown to or used for other users.
Your own card photos. If you set your own photo for a card in the app, it is saved only on your phone (and in your own device backup). It is never uploaded and only you can see it.
How We Use Your Data
Any data we collect is used solely for:
- Improving app performance
- Fixing bugs and crashes
- Understanding which features are most popular
Data Storage
All Pokemon card scanning and collection management happens on your device. We don't store your collection data on our servers. Your collection stays private on your device. The only pictures our server keeps are the cropped card pictures from failed scans described above; they are never shown to other users or published anywhere.
Third-Party Services
We use these services:
- PostHog and Firebase Analytics (app): anonymous usage statistics as described above.
- RevenueCat (app): processes App Store subscriptions using the same random app ID. Payments themselves are handled by Apple.
- Cloudflare: hosts our website and price server.
- Google Analytics (website): anonymous statistics about how visitors use this website.
None of these services receive your name, email address, contacts, location or card pictures from us.
Your Rights
You have the right to:
- Use our app without creating an account
- Turn off usage analytics at any time in the app: Settings → "Share anonymous usage data"
- Delete all local data by uninstalling the app
Changes to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated date.
