Effective date: February 17, 2026
Daily Talk Topics ("the App") is operated by Phi IT, a sole proprietor (eenmanszaak) based in Hoorn, the Netherlands ("we", "our", "us"). We are the data controller responsible for the processing of your personal data as described in this Privacy Policy.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our App.
When you first open the app, we generate a random device identifier. This identifier is used solely to provide you with daily content and manage your subscription status. We do not collect your name, email address, phone number, or any other personally identifiable information.
If you purchase a subscription, payment processing is handled entirely by Apple (App Store) or Google (Google Play). We receive only your subscription status (active or inactive) through RevenueCat. We do not have access to your payment details. If a free trial is offered, we receive the trial status (active or expired) but no additional personal data is collected during the trial period. If you use the "Restore Purchases" feature, we verify your original purchase and transfer subscription data from your previous device identifier to your current one. The previous device identifier's association with the subscription is replaced.
If you submit a topic suggestion, we store the suggestion text along with your device identifier. Suggestions are reviewed and may be included in future content.
We collect basic usage data such as which categories you select. This data is associated with your device identifier, not your personal identity.
Conversation topics in the App are generated with the assistance of artificial intelligence using a self-hosted language model. No user data is sent to any external AI service. The AI system processes only internal content prompts and does not have access to your device identifier, usage data, or any other user information.
Our app uses the following third-party services:
Free-tier users see banner advertisements served by Google AdMob. We request non-personalized ads only, meaning ads are not based on your interests or browsing behavior. AdMob may still collect certain device information for ad serving, frequency capping, and fraud detection as described in Google's privacy policy. Pro subscribers do not see advertisements.
On iOS, the App does not request permission to track you across apps and websites owned by other companies (App Tracking Transparency). We do not use the Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA) for ad personalization or cross-app tracking.
Your device identifier and authentication token are stored securely on your device using platform-native secure storage (iOS Keychain / Android Keystore). Server-side data is stored on secured servers within the European Union. We use HMAC-based authentication and HTTPS encryption for all API communications.
We do not sell, trade, or transfer your data to third parties beyond what is described in this policy.
Our servers are located within the European Union. However, some third-party services we use (RevenueCat, Google AdMob) are operated by companies based in the United States. When data is transferred outside the EU, these transfers are protected by appropriate safeguards, including Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission, or the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework.
Device identifiers and associated data are retained for as long as you use the App. If you uninstall the App, your device identifier is no longer sent to our servers. Inactive device records may be deleted after 12 months of inactivity. You may contact us at any time to request immediate deletion of your data.
You can delete all data associated with your device directly from the App by going to Settings and selecting "Delete My Data". This immediately removes your device record, category selection history, topic suggestions, and subscription data from our servers. Alternatively, you can request deletion by contacting us at [email protected], and we will process your request within 30 days.
Note that data held by third-party services (RevenueCat, Google, Apple) is subject to their respective data deletion policies.
Our App is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13. If you believe we have collected information from a child under 13, please contact us so we can delete it.
If you are located in the European Economic Area, under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) you have the right to:
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at [email protected].
We process your data on the following legal bases:
We do not use automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal effects or similarly significant effects concerning you.
If you are a California resident, under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) you have the right to:
We do not sell your personal information. We do not share your personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. To exercise your CCPA rights, contact us at [email protected]. You may also designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf.
The App does not use cookies. Our website pages (such as this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Service) are static pages that do not use cookies, tracking pixels, or any web analytics tools.
We do not currently respond to "Do Not Track" (DNT) browser signals, as there is no industry-standard technology for recognizing or honoring them. We do, however, honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals where required by applicable law.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be reflected by an updated effective date at the top of this page. We will notify you of material changes through the App or other reasonable means. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
