Privacy Policy

Effective Date: January 12, 2026

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how Crochet Toolkit ("we", "our", or "us") collects, uses, and discloses information about you when you use our mobile application (the "App").

2. Data Collection and Usage

2.1 Local Data Storage

The primary function of the App is to help you manage your crochet and knitting projects. All personal data related to your projects, inventory, counters, work sessions, and quotes is stored locally on your device. We do not transmit this data to any external server, cloud storage, or third party, except when you explicitly choose to export or share a backup file or PDF document.

2.2 Advertising Data (AdMob)

To support the development and maintenance of the App, we use Google AdMob to display advertisements. AdMob is a mobile advertising service provided by Google LLC.

AdMob and its partners may collect and process certain information from your device to provide personalized ads and analyze ad performance. This data may include:

For more detailed information on how Google AdMob collects and uses data, please refer to Google's Privacy & Terms.

3. Data Sharing

We do not share your locally stored personal data with any third parties. Data collected by AdMob is shared with Google and its advertising partners as described in their respective privacy policies.

4. Children's Privacy

Our App is not intended for use by children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under 13, we will take steps to delete such information.

5. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.

6. Your Privacy Rights (Including US State Privacy Laws & GDPR)

Depending on your location and applicable data protection laws—such as the GDPR in Europe or US State Privacy Laws (including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA))—you may have specific rights regarding your personal data.

Because our App stores all project data locally on your device, you already have full control to access, modify, export, or delete this data directly within the App without needing to contact us.

Regarding data collected by Google AdMob for personalized advertising, this may be considered a "sale" or "sharing" of personal information under certain US State Privacy Laws. You have the right to opt-out of this sharing or withdraw your consent at any time. You can manage your ad personalization preferences, opt-out of the sale/sharing of your data, or revoke your consent directly through the "Privacy & Consents" section in the App's settings menu. Additionally, you can opt-out of personalized advertising at the device level using your device's settings (e.g., on Android via Settings > Google > Ads > Opt out of Ads Personalization, or on iOS via Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking).

8. Disclaimer and Limitation of Liability

8.1 "As-Is" Software: The App is provided on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis, without any warranties of any kind, either express or implied.

8.2 Data Loss: Because all project and inventory data is stored locally on your device, we are not responsible for any loss of data due to device failure, accidental deletion, app uninstallation, or corruption. You are solely responsible for creating regular backups of your information.

8.3 Business & Quote Generation: The "Quote" generation and cost calculation features provided within the App are intended strictly for informational and estimative purposes. They do not constitute legally binding financial, tax, or business advice. We shall not be held liable for any inaccuracies, financial losses, or business disputes arising from the use of quotes or calculations generated by the App.
