Privacy Policy

Effective date: July 22, 2026

CompetitorScout (the "app") is run by an independent developer. The app is built around data minimization. This policy explains what we collect, why we collect it, and what control you have.

1. What we collect and process

Subscription identifier：A subscription code or App Store transaction ID (originalTransactionId), used to verify your subscription and count analysis runs. It contains no name, phone number or other identity information.
Business data you enter：Your product information and competitor library. They are stored locally on your device and synced to cloud storage bound to your subscription account, only so your own devices stay in sync and scheduled cloud monitoring can run.
Content sent to AI：When you use scanning, assessment, roadmap and similar features, your product and competitor text is relayed through our server to a large language model provider to generate the result. We do not use this content for any other purpose.
Sign in with Apple (optional)：If you choose "Sign in with Apple", we store the stable user identifier Apple provides and your email address (if you agree to share it), only for recovery across devices and account merging.
Device push token (optional)：If you allow notifications, we store your push token to send monitoring alerts.

2. What we don't do

No third-party advertising or behavioral tracking SDKs.
No selling or sharing your data with third parties, except where required by law.
No collecting device information unrelated to the app's features.

3. Retention and deletion

Synced cloud data is kept while your subscription is active; the server clears expired logs and history on a set schedule. You can export all of your data from the app at any time. To delete cloud data or close your account, email us at the address below and we will handle it within 15 business days.

4. Payments

In-app subscriptions are handled by Apple; we never see your payment information. Subscription-code purchases are handled by the sales platform you bought from.
