Sola Coffea Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Sola Coffea ("Sola Coffea," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and shares information when you use the Sola Coffea mobile app and related services.
1. Information We Collect
We collect information in the following categories:
- Information you create in the app: coffee and brew logs, notes, ratings, shop details, visit history, equipment records, signature drink recipes, and photos you attach.
- Information from permissions you grant: camera access for QR scanning and taking photos, photo library access for choosing and saving images, location access for finding nearby shops and map features, and notification access for brew timers and reminders.
- Subscription and transaction data: subscription status and product entitlements provided by Apple StoreKit. Payment processing is handled by Apple, not by us.
- Operational and analytics data: import/scan event metadata used to improve QR import reliability (for example import source, payload type/version, app version/build, and a random app install identifier). This data may include coffee metadata present in the imported payload and associated shop/location/campaign identifiers when available.
- iCloud/CloudKit identifiers: CloudKit record identifiers needed for syncing your data across devices.
2. How We Use Information
We use information to:
- Operate core app features, including coffee tracking, brew tools, shop discovery, and insights.
- Sync your data across your devices through iCloud/CloudKit.
- Support subscriptions and restore purchases.
- Improve product quality and reliability.
3. Data Storage
Your personal coffee library and related app data sync through your private iCloud/CloudKit storage tied to your Apple account. Your data stays on your devices and in your personal iCloud storage.
4. How We Share Information
We do not sell your personal data. We share information only as needed to run the service, including:
- Apple services: CloudKit/iCloud for storage and sync, StoreKit for subscriptions.
- Legal/safety reasons: when required by law or to protect users and the service.
- Business transfer: if our business is reorganized, sold, or merged.
Sola Coffea does not use third-party advertising SDKs for targeted advertising in the app.
5. Data Retention
- We retain data while your app usage remains active, or as needed to provide the service.
- You can delete all your data from within the app under Settings.

7. Children

8. Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational safeguards to protect data. No system can be guaranteed 100% secure.
