📄 Privacy Policy

Last Updated: 15/06/2026

1. Introduction At Mehmet Bicici ("we," "us," or "our"), we respect your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use AlphaBrief (the "App"), our AI-powered automated financial news and audio broadcast platform.

2. Data We Collect Our App is designed to be privacy-centric. We do not collect direct personal identifiers (such as your name or email). The data we collect is limited to the following:

• Account Information: Anonymous User IDs (UIDs) generated when you launch the App to save your preferences and manage access.
• Device and Usage Data: Information such as your device model, operating system, and crash logs (via Firebase Crashlytics) to help us identify bugs and improve App stability.
• Notification Data: Push notification tokens (via Firebase Cloud Messaging) to send you daily audio broadcast alerts.

3. How We Use Your Data We use the collected information strictly to:

• Deliver daily AI-generated financial news and audio broadcasts to your device.
• Manage auto-renewable subscriptions and premium access.
• Send timely push notifications regarding new market updates or episodes.
• Analyze crashes and optimize the performance of our cloud backend and SwiftUI architecture.

4. Third-Party Services We utilize industry-standard third-party providers to power our App's infrastructure. These providers only access data necessary to perform their specific functions:

• Firebase (Google): For anonymous authentication, real-time database management, cloud storage, and crash reporting.
• Apple & RevenueCat: To securely process and validate in-app purchases and subscriptions. We never process or store your credit card information on our servers.
• Finnhub: To source financial news headlines and market data, which our AI then processes into original summaries and audio scripts.

5. Data Security We implement robust cloud security measures to protect your data. All communication between the App and our backend servers is encrypted. You can request the deletion of your App data and anonymous profile at any time via the in-app settings.
