3. What Information We Collect and Why
We collect a minimal amount of personal information only for specific purposes:
When You Purchase a License
To process payments and issue your software license, we use Lemon Squeezy as our merchant of record. When you make a purchase, Lemon Squeezy will collect your email address, name, and payment information. We receive your name and email address to identify you as a customer and deliver your license key. We do not receive or store your credit card details.
Legal Basis: To fulfill our contractual obligation to you.
When You Use the App (Anonymous Analytics)
We use Countly, a privacy-focused analytics service, to collect anonymous usage data to help us fix bugs and improve the App. This includes technical details like device type, OS version, and app version. This data is aggregated and cannot be used to identify you personally.
Legal Basis: Our legitimate interest in improving our product.
When You Contact Us for Support
If you email us for support, we will use your email address and any information you provide to resolve your issue.
Legal Basis: To respond to your request.

These third parties are bound by their own privacy policies to keep your information confidential.
