Privacy Policy

2. Information We Collect

We process information you choose to provide and information created through your use of Thero so the app can show your selected profile details and coffee activity.

• Display name, bio, generated profile handle, and an optional profile photo.
• Cup-style choices, drink results, scores, run progress, and drink-history entries.
• Permission selections and messages sent to support.

3. How We Use Information

We use this information to provide the requested profile and coffee-making experience, preserve progress and drink history, respond to support requests, protect the service, and comply with legal obligations.

4. Image and Media Access

Thero requests camera or photo-library access only after you choose to take or select a profile photo. The selected image is used to update the profile presentation you requested; it is not used for identity verification, facial recognition, or biometric profiling.

5. Audio Processing

If you choose to record feedback through an available in-app action, Thero may request microphone access for that user-initiated purpose. Microphone permission is not requested for unrelated background collection and is not used for identity verification or biometric profiling.

6. Profile and Activity Data

Profile choices, completed drink results, and progress records are used to personalize repeat visits and let you review your own coffee activity. Thero does not use these details to build advertising profiles.

7. Tracking, Analytics, and Advertising

Thero does not request App Tracking Transparency permission. We do not sell personal information or use your profile photo, coffee activity, or support messages for targeted advertising.

8. Sharing and Service Providers

We do not sell personal information. Information may be shared only with service providers that help us respond to support requests, comply with law, protect rights and safety, or operate the service; those providers may use it only for the services they provide.

9. Data Retention

We retain information only for as long as needed to provide the experience, maintain requested progress and history, resolve disputes, meet legal obligations, enforce these terms, or investigate fraud or misuse.

10. Your Rights and Choices

You can change camera, photo-library, and microphone permissions in iOS Settings. You can also use the profile and history controls in Thero to remove available profile details or drink records, and you may contact support@thero.com with privacy, deletion, access, or correction requests.

11. Children's Privacy

Thero is not directed to children under 13. If you believe that a child has provided personal information without appropriate permission, contact support@thero.com so we can review the request and take appropriate action.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Policy to reflect changes to Thero, legal requirements, or privacy practices. The updated version will show a revised date on this page.
