Privacy Policy
Last updated: February 25, 2026
Overview
Calc-pal ("the App") is a multi-mode professional calculator with voice interaction and AI-powered assistance. Your privacy is important to us. This policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights.
Data Collection
Device Identifier: The App generates a random, anonymous identifier (UUID) on your device. This identifier is used solely to keep your conversations, documents, and preferences separate from other users. It is not linked to your Apple ID, phone number, email, or any personal information.
No Account Required: The App does not require you to create an account, log in, or provide any personal information such as your name, email address, or phone number.
Data We Process
- Conversations: Messages you send to the AI assistant are transmitted to our server for processing and stored so you can access your conversation history. Conversations are linked only to your anonymous device identifier.
- Voice Input: When you use voice features, audio is recorded on your device and sent to our server for transcription. Audio files are deleted immediately after transcription.
- Documents: PDFs and images you upload are processed on our server for AI analysis. Document content is stored to provide context in conversations.
- Preferences: Your settings (calculator mode, language, precision, etc.) are stored locally on your device using AsyncStorage.
- Calculation History: Your calculation history is stored locally on your device.
AI Processing
The App uses OpenAI's API to process your messages, transcribe voice input, and generate responses. When you interact with the AI:
- Your message text is sent to OpenAI for processing
- OpenAI's data usage policies apply to this processing
- We do not use your data to train AI models
- The AI may learn facts you share in conversation (e.g., your preferred units) to personalize responses. This information is stored on our server, linked only to your anonymous device ID
Data Storage and Security
- Server-side data (conversations, documents, AI learning) is stored in a PostgreSQL database
- All data transmission uses HTTPS encryption
- Data is isolated per device — no user can access another user's data
- We do not sell, share, or transfer your data to third parties beyond what is necessary for AI processing (OpenAI)
Data Retention
Conversations and documents are retained on our servers until you delete them within the App. You can delete individual conversations or all data at any time. Local data (preferences, history, slang) can be cleared by uninstalling the App or clearing app data.
Children's Privacy
The App is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
Your Rights
- You can delete your conversations and documents at any time from within the App
- You can use the App in offline mode to avoid any data transmission
- You can uninstall the App to remove all locally stored data
- For data deletion requests regarding server-stored data, contact us at the address below

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
