Privacy Policy

This is the privacy policy for WindUp ("WindUp", "we", "us"), an iOS app published by Virtual Verse Studio. This policy describes what data we collect, why, and how we protect it.

1. Data we collect

We collect the minimum data needed to run the app and provide live wind alarms:

• Account & preferences: Email (if you sign in), wind alarm settings, preferred stations.
• Location: If you grant location access, we use it to show stations near you. Location is not stored on our servers in identifiable form.
• Notification tokens: An anonymous Apple Push token used to deliver alarms.
• Usage analytics: Anonymous, aggregated event counts via Google Analytics 4 to understand which features are used.

2. What we don't do

• We do not sell your data to third parties.
• We do not advertise to you.
• We do not track you across other apps or websites.

3. How we use the data

We use the data only to operate the app — deliver alarms, show stations near you, sync your preferences across devices, and improve the product.

4. Data retention

Account data is kept while your account is active. Delete your account in-app to remove your stored preferences. Anonymous analytics events expire automatically after 14 months.

5. Third parties

WindUp uses Apple Push Notification Service to deliver alarms and Google Analytics 4 for anonymous product analytics. Both have their own privacy policies. We do not share identifiable data with anyone else.

6. Your rights

You can request a copy of your data, request deletion, or correct any incorrect data by emailing support@windup.live. We aim to respond within 30 days.

7. Children

WindUp is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 13.

8. Changes to this policy

If we materially change this policy we'll update the "Last updated" date at the top and announce it in the app or on our website. Continued use of WindUp after changes counts as acceptance.

9. Contact
