Last Updated: December 18, 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how OnlyPals (“we,” “our,” or “us”) collects, uses, and protects your information when you use our social habit and accountability mobile application (the “App”). By using OnlyPals, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

1. INFORMATION WE COLLECT

We do not receive credit card numbers or billing addresses.

3. DATA STORAGE AND SECURITY

3.1 Firebase Storage

All user data—including habits, XP, challenge activity, avatar state, and friend connections—is stored through Firebase infrastructure. Firebase manages:

• Data encryption in transit and at rest

• Secure authentication

3.2 Local Storage

Some cached data may be stored temporarily on your device to improve speed and offline performance. This data remains encrypted and does not leave your device unless synced through Firebase.

We implement:

• HTTPS/TLS encrypted data transmission

• Secure authentication protocols

• Role-based access control

• Regular security reviews

No employee or contractor can access your personal data unless required to resolve a technical issue, and access is always limited and logged.

4. DATA SHARING AND THIRD PARTIES

4.1 Firebase

Firebase stores and processes data solely to power app functionality. Firebase does not access your content for advertising or resale.

4.2 Apple App Store

Apple provides subscription and payment confirmation data to us. Apple does not provide payment card numbers.

4.3 No Data Sales

We do not:

• Sell user data

• Request account deletion at any time

Account and data deletion requests permanently remove your stored information from Firebase infrastructure, except legally required retention or anonymized logs.

6. CHILDREN’S PRIVACY

OnlyPals is not intended for users under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If such data is discovered, it will be deleted immediately.

7. INTERNATIONAL USERS

If you access OnlyPals outside the United States, your data may be processed in other regions where privacy laws differ from your country. By using the app, you consent to this processing.

Continued use of the app after changes signifies acceptance of the revised Privacy Policy.
