1. Overview
Garvio is a clean and simple personal organizer that helps you keep your hobby collections in order. You can create themed shelves, add detailed entries with covers and notes, mark favorites, and browse everything in one calm, easy-to-use space. Your privacy matters to us, and we designed Garvio to collect as little information as possible while still giving you a great experience.
By using the Service, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with this policy, please discontinue use of the Service.
2. Scope of the App
Garvio focuses on personal note-taking and collection management only. The Service does not provide payments, purchases, trading, marketplaces, or third-party commercial services of any kind. Garvio is intended as a lightweight, distraction-free tool for organizing personal lists, notes, and records for everyday use.
3. Information We Collect
We aim to collect only what is needed to provide and improve the Service. The categories of information may include:
- Content you create. The shelves, entries, notes, titles, covers, and favorites you choose to add are content you provide to organize your collections.
- Messages you send us. If you contact us or submit a message through our support page, we receive the information you choose to include, such as your name (optional), email address (optional), and the contents of your message.
- Basic technical information. Like most digital services, we may receive standard technical details such as device type, app version, general diagnostic information, and anonymized usage signals that help us keep the Service stable and improve it over time.
We do not ask for sensitive personal information, and we encourage you not to include any sensitive details in your notes or messages.
4. How We Use Information
We use the information described above to:
- Provide, maintain, and operate the core features of the Service.
- Respond to your questions, feedback, and support requests.
- Understand how the Service is used so we can improve performance, reliability, and usability.
- Protect the Service, prevent misuse, and comply with applicable legal obligations.
We do not sell your information, and we do not use your content for advertising.
5. Legal Bases for Processing
Where applicable law requires a legal basis for processing personal information (for example, under the GDPR), we rely on one or more of the following: your consent, the performance of providing the Service you request, our legitimate interests in operating and improving the Service, and compliance with legal obligations. You may withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent.
6. Storage and Retention
We retain information only for as long as it is needed to provide the Service and for the purposes described in this policy, or as required by applicable law. Messages you send for support are kept long enough to respond to and resolve your request, after which they may be removed. When information is no longer needed, we take reasonable steps to delete or anonymize it.
8. Third-Party Services
Garvio does not offer payments, purchases, trading, or other third-party commercial services. We may use a small number of reputable infrastructure providers to host and operate the Service. These providers process information solely to support the Service and are not permitted to use it for their own purposes.
9. Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. We encourage you to keep your device secure and to avoid sharing sensitive information through the Service.
10. Children's Privacy
The Service is intended for general audiences and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can take appropriate steps to remove it.
11. Your Rights and Choices
Depending on where you live, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including the right to access, correct, update, or delete it, and to object to or restrict certain processing. You can exercise these choices, or ask us any privacy-related question, by contacting us using the details below. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe and in accordance with applicable law.
