Privacy Policy

Last updated: February 2026

ShootIQ (“we”, “our”, “us”, “the app”, “the service”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, how it is stored, and your rights as a user.

1. Information We Collect

a. Account Information

When you create a ShootIQ account, we may collect your email address and authentication credentials. We use Firebase Authentication for secure account management.

b. Presets & Preferences

When you save presets or preferences, we collect camera selections, camera settings, shooting presets, and configurations. These are stored securely in Google Firebase and synced across your devices. They are linked to your user ID (anonymous ID or account ID), not publicly visible information.

c. Usage Data (Anonymous Analytics)

We collect anonymized usage data such as camera brands and models selected, shooting types chosen, feature usage patterns, and interaction metrics. This data cannot identify you personally and is used only for analytics and product improvement.

d. Device & Technical Information

We may collect device type, operating system, browser type (web), app version, and basic diagnostic data strictly for performance optimization, compatibility, and security.

e. Advertising Identifiers (Free Tier Only)

If you use the free version, advertising services (Google AdMob on mobile and Google AdSense on web) may collect device advertising IDs, cookies, and device identifiers to serve relevant ads. Pro users do not see advertisements.
