Couponie Privacy Policy
Couponie, くぽ〜ん, and 券包包 are names for the same app in different languages.
1. Information accessed and stored by the app
Analytics events include information such as operating system type and version, locale, app version/build number, and a session ID. Unsent events may be stored on your device.
When checking OS information, a library used by the app may read device names, model information, device identifiers, and storage or memory information on your device. Only the information described in Section 3 is included in analytics events.
- Coupon information you register, such as title, notes, start date, expiration date, store name, coupon code, usage link, usage channel, planned date, and status
- Coupon images you take or select
- App settings, including notification and map app preferences
- Status information needed to check whether on-device extraction features are available, such as Apple Intelligence / Foundation Models on iOS or Android AI Core on Android builds
2. Purpose of use
- To register, display, edit, delete, sort, and search coupons
- To read and structure coupon details from coupon images
- To show notifications about coupon start dates and expiration dates
- To open map search or web search from a store name when you choose to do so
- To save settings and show guidance based on device capabilities
- To understand minimal app usage signals for product improvement and issue awareness
3. External transmission and linked services
Couponie does not send coupon images or OCR text to cloud AI services in the App Store version. Coupon detail extraction is handled by supported on-device capabilities.
- Map search may pass a store name to Apple Maps, Google Maps, or a web map
- Web search may pass a store name to a browser or search service
- Couponie may send minimal analytics events through the official Aptabase SDK to understand basic app usage. The transmitted data includes event names and timestamps, fixed categories describing app interactions, operating system type (iOS, iPadOS, or Android) and version, locale, app version/build number, SDK version, debug status, and a session ID generated by the SDK. Coupon titles, store names, expiration dates, coupon codes, usage links, usage channels, images, OCR text, notes, and other registered coupon contents are not sent. Advertising IDs, device-specific IDs, and account IDs are not included in analytics events either. Because events are transmitted over the network, Aptabase may handle the IP address associated with the request.
- The in-app help screen displays HTML bundled inside the app and does not connect to an external website just to display help content
- Adding or configuring a planned date calendar event happens only after you choose to do so, and writes an event to a calendar on your device
4. Permissions
- Camera: used to take coupon images for registration and reading
- Photo library / storage: used to select images on your device for registration and reading
- Notifications: used to show reminders for coupon start dates and expiration dates
- Calendar: used only when you choose to add or configure planned date events on your device calendar
5. Storage, retention, and deletion
Unsent analytics events are stored on your device, and the app attempts to send them in batches when it starts or while it runs. Events may be lost due to communication or storage failures. There is no fixed retention limit for unsent events.
- Coupon information, images, and settings are stored on your device
- When you delete a coupon, its coupon information is deleted from the app database
- Used coupons are automatically deleted 180 days after the used date, and expired coupons are automatically deleted 180 days after the expiration date during a later app launch
- Images in the app-managed area become cleanup targets after they are no longer referenced by coupons
- Settings remain until you delete the app, change the settings, or reset them
- If you uninstall the app, app data stored on the device is deleted according to the operating system behavior
6. Your controls
- You can add, edit, and delete coupon information and coupon images in the app
- You can change notification settings in the app settings screen
- Because coupon data is stored on your device, the developer cannot directly view, edit, delete, or restore your registered coupon data
