"Meds Log" (the "App") values your privacy above all else. This policy explains the information the App handles and how it is handled.
This document is an English translation of the Japanese original. If the Japanese and English versions differ, the Japanese version prevails. This does not limit any rights that the laws of your country guarantee to you as a consumer.

1. Our Most Important Promise
Your records (the names of your medicines, dose records, mood, notes, and the contents of your summaries) are all stored on your device. They are not sent to the operator's servers. The operator cannot see the contents of your records.
Sharing with the home screen widget also takes place within a shared area on your device (App Group) and never leaves the device. Exporting your records (CSV and JSON) happens only through your own action.
2. Information Collected Anonymously
To improve the App, we collect anonymous information that does not include the contents of your records, through the following services.
| Service | Information collected | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Firebase Analytics (Google) |
Screen views; interaction events (such as the theme in use, the types and number of medicines, and the kinds of record operations); device model and OS version; an app identifier (an anonymous ID issued per device) | Understanding and improving how features are used |
| Firebase Crashlytics (Google) |
Occurrences of crashes and defects; device model and OS version | Fixing defects |
These never include the names of your medicines, dose records, mood, notes, or the text of your summaries. For how Google handles data, please see the Google Privacy Policy.
Barometric Pressure Forecast and Pressure Graph (optional)
Only if you turn on the barometric pressure forecast or open the Pressure graph (Premium), and allow location access, the App gets your device's location (approximate accuracy, only while the App is in use). The coordinates are rounded to two decimal places (about 1 km) and sent only to the weather service Open-Meteo to get the pressure, temperature, and weather forecast; the place name is looked up with your device's built-in feature (iOS / Android reverse geocoding). The rounded coordinates are stored only on your device and are never sent to the operator's servers, and the contents of your records are never sent. If you chose a region in an earlier version, the representative coordinates of that region are sent instead. You can turn the pressure forecast off at any time, and revoke location access at any time in your device settings.
3. Advertising
On the free plan, the App displays advertisements via Google AdMob. The App requests only non-personalized ads (NPA). We do not perform tracking for behavioral targeting; however, cookies or device identifiers may be used within the ad delivery mechanism in order to serve ads and prevent fraud. For details, please see Google's advertising policies.
No advertisements are shown on the Premium plan.
4. Purchases
Payments for paid plans are processed through Apple's App Store or Google Play. The operator never receives your credit card information. To confirm your purchase status, the App uses RevenueCat (RevenueCat, Inc.), which processes an anonymous identifier and purchase information (such as plan type and purchase date). For details, please see the RevenueCat Privacy Policy.
5. Notifications
Reminders (medication reminders) are local notifications that stay entirely on your device. The contents of notifications never pass through the operator's or any third party's servers.
6. Disclosure to Third Parties
Except as required by law, we do not provide the collected information to any third party other than the service providers listed above.
7. Data Retention
Retention periods for each kind of information are listed below. The operator does not store or retain your data on its own servers.
| Data | Retention period |
|---|---|
| Records on your device (medicine names, dose records, mood, notes, summaries) | Retained on your device with no time limit. They are erased when you delete them or delete the App. |
| Anonymous Firebase Analytics events | Event-level data is deleted automatically after at most 14 months, following the retention setting in Firebase (Google Analytics). Aggregated statistics may be retained without a time limit. |
| Firebase Crashlytics crash reports | Deleted automatically 90 days after they occur. |
| RevenueCat purchase information (anonymous identifier, plan type, purchase date) | Retained for as long as needed to verify your purchase status. |
| Place (rounded coordinates) sent for the pressure forecast and pressure graph | Not retained by the operator (used only to query Open-Meteo). |
8. Deletion of Data
- All records on your device are erased when you delete the App. You can also erase them from "Delete all records" inside the App.
- If you would like anonymous analytics data to be deleted, please contact us at the address below.
9. Use by Children
The App does not knowingly collect the personal information of children under the age of 14.
10. Revisions
This policy may be revised as necessary. Significant changes will be announced within the App or on this page.
