Privacy Policy

App: Coléga • Last updated:

Coléga (“the App”) is provided by Felipe Kleine Albers (“we”, “us”). This policy explains how information is handled when you use the App.

Plain summary: We don’t create accounts or ask for your personal details. The App uses Google AdMob for ads and Google Firebase SDKs (e.g., Crashlytics, Analytics, Remote Config, Performance Monitoring) to keep the app reliable and improve features. These services may process device identifiers, IP address, and technical diagnostics. The App fetches publicly available cafeteria menus from university websites and uses a backend hosted on Vercel. We do not receive or store personal data on our own servers.

1) Information We Collect

We don’t directly collect personal information. While using the App, third-party services (Google AdMob, Google Firebase, and Vercel) may process:

These data are handled under the respective third-party policies. See Google Advertising – Privacy & Terms, Firebase Privacy & Security, and Vercel Privacy Policy.

2) Ads & Analytics

The App uses Google Mobile Ads (AdMob) to display advertising. You can manage ad personalization on Android (Settings → Google → Ads) and via Google Ad Settings.

If enabled in the App, Firebase Analytics helps us understand general usage patterns (e.g., screens visited, feature engagement). We configure it to avoid collecting information that directly identifies you.

3) Firebase SDKs

We integrate selected Firebase SDKs to ensure stability and improve the experience:

Note: “Optional” indicates components we may enable for feature rollout and quality; none of these give us access to information that directly identifies you.

4) Backend Service

The App uses a backend hosted on Vercel to retrieve and optimize public university menu data. This backend does not store, share, or use personal data. Standard server logs are automatically generated by Vercel for operational purposes and are not used by us to identify users.

5) Permissions

6) Children’s Privacy

The App targets a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect children’s personal information.

7) Data Retention

We don’t store personal data on our own servers. Ad-related and Firebase diagnostic/analytics data are retained by Google under their respective policies and console settings. Vercel server logs are managed under Vercel’s policies.

8) International Transfers & Legal Bases

Ad, analytics, and hosting services may process data on servers outside your country. Where applicable (e.g., LGPD, GDPR), Google (AdMob/Firebase) and Vercel act as independent controllers for their processing. We act as the app publisher and do not receive personal data.

9) Your Choices

10) Changes

We may update this policy. We’ll post changes here and update the date above.
