Privacy Policy & Terms of Use

Short version. We collect only the data an app needs to work, we never sell your personal data, and you can delete your data at any time. Questions? Write to marateamapps@gmail.com.

Privacy Policy

1. Who we are

Our apps are published by MaraTeamApps OÜ (“we”, “us”, “our”), a private limited company registered in Estonia. We are the data controller for personal data processed through our apps.

MaraTeamApps OÜ
Vesivärava tn 50-201, 10152 Tallinn, Harju maakond, Estonia
Registration code: 17135796
VAT number: EE102811126
Email: marateamapps@gmail.com

2. Scope

This policy applies to every mobile app we publish on the Apple App Store and other app stores (each an “App”, together the “Apps”), and to related websites and support channels. Some Apps also have an app-specific privacy notice, for example about photos or voice input. Where it exists, the app-specific notice adds detail for that App. If the two conflict, the app-specific notice applies to that App.

Every App’s data practices are also summarised in its App Privacy section (“privacy nutrition label”) on its App Store page.

3. Data we collect

Not every App collects every type of data below. Each App collects only what its features need, and many Apps work without an account.

Data you provide

Account data: if you create an account or use Sign in with Apple, we receive your name and email address. If you choose “Hide My Email”, we receive Apple’s private relay address instead. Anonymous accounts get a random user ID only.
Content you create: notes, tasks, words, lists, settings, chat messages and other content you enter into an App.
Photos: images you pick yourself through the system photo picker for a feature (for example, AI image generation). We never get access to your whole photo library.
Voice: if you use voice input, your audio is processed to turn it into text.
Support messages: what you send us when you contact support, and your email address.

Data collected automatically

Purchase data: subscription status, product, transaction and renewal dates. We never receive your payment card details. Apple processes payments.
Usage data: pseudonymous in-app events (for example, “note created” or “lesson completed”), used to understand and improve the Apps.
Diagnostics: crash reports and performance data, such as device model, OS version, app version and error logs.
Device and technical data: an app-specific identifier, language, region, time zone and IP address. We use the IP address for security and approximate location (country or region) only, never precise location.
App integrity tokens: used to confirm that requests come from a genuine copy of the App (for example, Firebase App Check / Apple App Attest).

We do not collect precise location, contacts, health data or biometric identifiers. We do not use facial recognition. If an App ever needs a sensitive permission (camera, microphone, photos, notifications), iOS asks you first, and you can withdraw that permission at any time in Settings.

4. How and why we use data

Under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), we process personal data only when we have a legal basis to do so:

Purpose	Data	Legal basis (GDPR Art. 6)
Running the App and its features, syncing your content, managing your account	Account data, content, photos, voice, technical data	Performance of a contract (b)
Selling and managing subscriptions and restoring purchases	Purchase data, user ID	Performance of a contract (b)
Answering support requests	Support messages, email	Contract (b) / legitimate interests (f)
Fixing crashes, preventing fraud and abuse, keeping the service secure	Diagnostics, technical data, integrity tokens	Legitimate interests (f)
Improving the Apps with usage statistics	Usage data	Legitimate interests (f), or consent (a) where required
Optional marketing emails or push notifications	Email, push token	Consent (a), which you can withdraw at any time
Accounting, tax and other legal obligations	Purchase and invoice records	Legal obligation (c)

We do not sell or rent your personal data, and we do not share it with data brokers. We make no decisions with legal or similarly significant effects about you based solely on automated processing.

5. AI features

Some Apps use AI models, for example to generate images, summarise or tag notes, answer chat questions or transcribe voice. When you use such a feature, the relevant input (text, photo or audio) is sent over an encrypted connection to the AI provider listed in Section 6, and the result comes back to you.

We use providers’ business/API services. Under their terms, your inputs are not used to train their public models.
Inputs are processed only to give you the result, and are kept by the provider only as their terms allow (for example, briefly for abuse monitoring).
AI output can be inaccurate or incomplete. See the Terms of Use.

6. Service providers

We use trusted service providers (“processors”) to run the Apps. They may process data only on our instructions, under data processing agreements, and must protect it at least as well as this policy does. Which providers are used depends on the App.

Provider	Purpose	Data involved
Apple (App Store, StoreKit, Sign in with Apple, iCloud)	Distribution, payments, sign-in, optional iCloud sync	Purchase data, name/email (if you share them), content you sync to your iCloud
Google Firebase (Authentication, Firestore, Storage, Analytics, Crashlytics, App Check, Cloud Messaging)	Accounts, database, analytics, crash reports, integrity checks, push notifications	User ID, account data, content, usage data, diagnostics, device tokens
Google Cloud / Gemini / Vertex AI	AI text and image features	Text, photos or other input you submit to an AI feature
ElevenLabs	Voice transcription	Audio stream during voice input
RevenueCat	Subscription management	Pseudonymous user ID, purchase history
Adapty	Subscription and paywall management	Pseudonymous user ID, purchase history
PostHog (servers in the USA)	Product analytics	Pseudonymous user ID, usage events, device data

Providers’ privacy policies: Apple, Firebase, Google, Google Cloud, ElevenLabs, RevenueCat, Adapty, PostHog.

We may also disclose data (a) when the law requires it, or to answer valid requests from public authorities; (b) to protect our rights, our users or the public; or (c) to a successor if our business or an App is merged, acquired or sold. In case (c), this policy keeps applying to your data, and we will notify you.

7. Tracking and advertising

We do not track you across apps and websites owned by other companies. If an App ever shows personalised ads or uses your data for tracking (as Apple defines it), it will first ask your permission through Apple’s App Tracking Transparency prompt, and nothing will be tracked unless you allow it. You can change this at any time in Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking. Our websites use only cookies that are strictly necessary.

8. International transfers

Some of our providers process data outside the European Economic Area (EEA), mainly in the United States. In those cases we rely on an adequacy decision, such as the EU–U.S. Data Privacy Framework for certified providers, or on the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses, together with additional safeguards where needed. You can ask us for a copy of the relevant safeguards.

9. Retention

Account data and content: kept while your account is active, and deleted within 30 days after you delete your account (backups within a further 30 days).
Data stored only on your device: stays on your device until you delete it or remove the App. We cannot see it.
AI inputs: not kept by us beyond what the feature needs (for example, the note you saved).
Usage and diagnostics data: kept for up to 14 months, in pseudonymous or aggregated form.
Purchase and accounting records: kept for 7 years, as required by the Estonian Accounting Act.
Support emails: kept for up to 2 years after your last message.

10. Deleting your data

In the App: Apps that let you create an account have a Delete Account option (usually Settings → Account → Delete Account). It permanently deletes your account and its data from our servers.
By email: write to marateamapps@gmail.com from your account’s email address (or include your user ID shown in the App). We will confirm deletion within 30 days.
On-device data: delete it in the App, or remove the App from your device.
Sign in with Apple: you can also stop using your Apple ID with an App in Settings → [your name] → Sign in with Apple.

Deleting your account does not cancel an App Store subscription. Cancel it in your Apple ID settings. See Subscriptions.

11. Your rights

Depending on where you live, you have the following rights:

Access: get a copy of your personal data.
Correction: have inaccurate data corrected.
Deletion: have your data erased.
Restriction: limit how we use your data.
Portability: receive your data in a machine-readable format.
Objection: object to processing based on legitimate interests, and to direct marketing at any time.
Withdraw consent: at any time, without affecting processing done before you withdrew it.

To use these rights, email marateamapps@gmail.com. We answer within one month and may need to verify your identity first. Using your rights is free.

Complaints. You can complain to the Estonian Data Protection Inspectorate (Andmekaitse Inspektsioon, www.aki.ee), or to the data protection authority in the EU/EEA country where you live or work. We would appreciate the chance to resolve your concern first.

California and other US states. Residents of California and other US states with privacy laws have the right to know, access, correct and delete their personal information, and the right not to be discriminated against for using these rights. We do not “sell” or “share” personal information as those laws define the terms (including for cross-context behavioural advertising), and we do not use sensitive personal information to infer characteristics about you. You can make a request by email, or through an authorised agent.

12. Children

Our Apps are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If you are younger than the age of digital consent in your country, use the Apps only with the consent of a parent or guardian. If you believe a child has given us personal data, contact us and we will delete it promptly. Some Apps have a higher minimum age, shown as their App Store age rating.

13. Security

All data in transit is encrypted with TLS. Data on our providers’ servers is encrypted at rest and protected by access controls, so only you can access your own content. We limit staff access to what is necessary and review our safeguards regularly. No system is 100% secure. If a personal data breach is likely to put your rights at risk, we will notify you and the supervisory authority as the law requires.

14. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy, for example when we launch new features or Apps. The “Effective” date at the top shows the latest version. For material changes, we will notify you in the App or by email before the changes take effect.

Terms of Use

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) are an agreement between you and MaraTeamApps OÜ, and they govern your use of our Apps. By downloading or using an App you accept these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Apps.

1. Licence and Apple EULA

We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the Apps on Apple devices that you own or control, as allowed by the App Store Usage Rules. For Apps downloaded from the Apple App Store, Apple’s Licensed Application End User License Agreement (Standard EULA) also applies. If these Terms conflict with the Standard EULA, these Terms prevail to the extent the Standard EULA allows.

You acknowledge that these Terms are between you and us only, not Apple. We, not Apple, are responsible for the Apps, for their maintenance and support, and for handling any claims about them, including product liability, legal compliance and intellectual-property claims. If an App fails to meet an applicable warranty, you may notify Apple and Apple will refund the purchase price (if any). Apart from that, Apple has no other warranty obligation regarding the App. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you.

2. Subscriptions and in-app purchases

Some features require a paid auto-renewable subscription or a one-time in-app purchase. The price, duration and content of each subscription are shown in the App before you buy.
Payment is charged to your Apple ID account when you confirm the purchase.
The subscription renews automatically at the same price and for the same period unless you turn off auto-renew at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your account is charged for renewal within the 24 hours before the current period ends.
You can manage or cancel a subscription in Settings → [your name] → Subscriptions, or in the App Store. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period.
Free trials: if a free trial is offered, it converts into a paid subscription at the end of the trial unless you cancel at least 24 hours before it ends. Any unused part of a free trial is forfeited when you buy a subscription.
Refunds are handled by Apple under its policies. You can request one at reportaproblem.apple.com. This does not limit any statutory rights you have as a consumer.
If we change subscription prices, Apple will notify you in advance and, where required, ask for your consent.

3. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

use the Apps for anything unlawful, harmful, fraudulent or infringing;
upload content you have no right to use, including photos of other people without their consent;
use AI features to create illegal, sexual, hateful, violent or deceptive content, or content that impersonates real people;
reverse-engineer, decompile, resell or sublicense the Apps, except as the law allows;
interfere with the Apps’ security, bypass usage limits, or access them with bots, scrapers or other automated means.

We may suspend or end your access if you seriously or repeatedly break these Terms.

4. Your content and AI output

You keep all rights to the content you create or upload. You give us a limited licence to host, process and show that content only as needed to provide the App to you. As between you and us, you may use AI-generated output for any lawful purpose. AI output is created automatically and may be inaccurate, incomplete or similar to output for other users. Check it before relying on it. The Apps do not provide medical, legal, financial or other professional advice.

5. Intellectual property

The Apps and their design, code, text, graphics, logos and trademarks belong to MaraTeamApps OÜ or its licensors and are protected by law. These Terms give you no rights to them other than the licence in Section 1.

6. Third-party services

The Apps may include links to, or features of, third-party services (for example, Apple or Google sign-in). Their own terms and policies apply, and we are not responsible for them.

7. Disclaimer

To the extent permitted by law, the Apps are provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. We do not guarantee that the Apps will be uninterrupted or error-free.

8. Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages, or for loss of data, profits or goodwill. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Apps is limited to the amount you paid us for the relevant App in the 12 months before the claim. Nothing in these Terms limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud or gross negligence, or any other liability that cannot be limited by law, including your mandatory rights as a consumer.

9. Termination

You may stop using an App and delete your account at any time. These Terms end when you stop using the Apps. Sections that by their nature should survive (for example, Sections 4–8 and 11) remain in effect.

10. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms. For material changes, we will give reasonable notice (at least 30 days where practicable) in the App or by email. If you continue using the Apps after the changes take effect, you accept the updated Terms.

11. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Estonia, excluding its conflict-of-law rules. Disputes will be settled by Harju County Court (Harju Maakohus) in Tallinn. If you are a consumer in the EU/EEA, you also keep the protection of the mandatory laws of your country of residence and may bring claims in its courts. EU consumers may also use the European Commission’s consumer redress portal.

12. Miscellaneous

If any provision of these Terms is found invalid, the rest remains in effect. If we do not enforce a provision, we do not waive it. If these Terms are translated, the English version prevails.
