How ButCanItFly for iOS and ButCanItFly.com protects your data.

This Privacy Policy explains how But Can It Fly (“we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, uses, and protects information when you use the ButCanItFly for iOS mobile app and related website (collectively, the “Service”). By using the Service, you agree to the practices described here.

1. Information We Collect

1.1 Account and Authentication Information

To let you sign in securely and keep your experience in sync, we collect basic account information depending on the sign-in method you choose:

• Google Sign-In: We receive your name, email address, and a Google-provided user identifier.
• Sign in with Apple: We receive an Apple-provided identifier and, if you allow it, your name and email address (which may be a private relay email).
• Email sign-in: If you sign in with email and password, we collect your email address and a password. Passwords are managed by our authentication provider and are never stored in plain text.

From any of these methods, we may store your name and email address so we can contact you about normal app- or website-related matters, such as account issues, feature updates, or important notices about the Service.

1.2 Usage and Device Information

We may automatically collect certain information about how you access and use the Service, including:

• App version, device type, and operating system version
• Pages or screens you view and actions you take within the Service
• Crash data, performance metrics, and basic diagnostic information
• Approximate timestamps of interactions

This may be collected using analytics and crash-reporting tools to help keep ButCanItFly for iOS stable and reliable.

1.3 Content and Data You Provide

When you interact with features in the Service—such as saving preferences or other inputs—we may store that data in secure cloud services so the Service can function as intended across sessions and devices.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Create, manage, and secure your account
• Allow you to sign in using Google, Apple, or email authentication
• Provide, operate, and personalize the ButCanItFly for iOS experience
• Communicate with you about app or website usage, updates, or support
• Monitor performance, fix bugs, and improve the Service over time
• Protect the Service and our users from fraud, abuse, or security threats

We do not sell your personal data and do not share your name or email with advertisers.

3. Legal Bases for Processing (Where Applicable)

Where applicable law requires a legal basis for processing your data (for example, in the EEA or UK), we may rely on:

• Performance of a contract (providing access to the Service)
• Legitimate interests (operating, improving, and securing the Service)
• Compliance with legal obligations
• Your consent, when we specifically request it

4. How We Share Your Information

We may share your information with trusted third parties only as needed to provide and improve the Service:

• Authentication and identity providers, including Google and Apple, to support sign-in and account management.
• Cloud hosting and database providers that store and process information on our behalf.
• Analytics and crash-reporting tools that help us understand usage and maintain app stability.

These partners are only allowed to use your information to perform services for us and must protect it appropriately.

5. Data Retention and Deletion

We keep your information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the Service and fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

You can request deletion of your account and associated personal data at any time by sending an email to:

Email: butcanitfly@gmail.com

Please include the email address you use to sign in so we can locate your account. Once we verify your request, we will remove your personal data from our active systems within a reasonable timeframe, subject to any legal obligations to retain certain records.

6. Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to help protect your information. However, no system can be completely secure. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and notifying us if you suspect any unauthorized access to your account.

7. Children's Privacy

The Service is not intended for children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can take appropriate steps to delete it.

8. Your Rights and Choices

Depending on your location, you may have rights such as:

• Accessing the personal data we hold about you
• Requesting correction of inaccurate or incomplete data
• Requesting deletion of your personal data
• Objecting to or restricting certain types of processing

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at butcanitfly@gmail.com.

9. Changes to This Privacy Policy
