Welcome to Prediction Kawaii.

By downloading, installing, or using the App, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use our Services. This policy applies globally to all users regardless of location.
2. Who We Are
Prediction Kawaii is the data controller for your personal information. For any privacy-related inquiries, you can contact us at hello@kawaii-app.com.
3. Information We Collect
We are committed to data minimization — we only collect what is necessary to provide and improve the App. The categories of information we may collect include:
3.1 Information You Provide Directly
- Profile preferences: Optional information such as your preferred categories (love, career, business, family, travel), nickname, or birth date if you choose to provide it for personalized predictions.
- Saved predictions: Fortune cookie predictions you choose to save to your personal collection within the App.
- AI chat messages: Messages you send to our AI chat companion when discussing your predictions and life.
- Feedback and support requests: Information you provide when contacting us via email or in-app feedback.
3.2 Information Collected Automatically
- Device information: Device model (e.g., iPhone 15), iOS version, device language, time zone, screen size, and a unique device identifier (IDFV — Identifier for Vendor) used by Apple for app compatibility.
- Usage data: Which features you use, how often you open the App, which categories you select most, session duration, and crash reports — all aggregated and anonymized.
- App performance data: Technical diagnostics, error logs, and performance metrics to identify and fix bugs.
- Push notification token: If you grant permission, Apple Push Notification Service (APNs) provides us a token to deliver daily predictions.
3.3 Information We Do NOT Collect

- We do not access your photos, camera, microphone, contacts, calendar, or location.
- We do not track you across other apps or websites for advertising purposes.
- We do not collect financial or payment information directly — App Store purchases (if any) are handled exclusively by Apple.
4. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect for the following purposes:
- Service provision: Deliver fortune cookie predictions, run the kawaii quiz, and provide AI chat functionality.
- Personalization: Tailor predictions to your selected categories and previously saved content.
- Daily notifications: Send you daily kawaii predictions if you have enabled push notifications.

5. Legal Basis for Processing (GDPR)
If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom, or Switzerland, we process your personal data under the following legal bases:
- Consent: For push notifications, optional analytics, and AI chat features. You can withdraw consent at any time.
- Legitimate interest: To improve the App, prevent fraud, and ensure security.
- Contract performance: To provide the Services you requested by installing the App.
- Legal obligation: Where required by applicable law.
6. AI Chat — How It Works
Our AI chat feature lets you discuss your predictions and life situations with an AI companion. Here's exactly how it handles your data:
- Real-time processing: Messages you send are processed by our AI service in real-time to generate responses.
- No training on your data: We do not use your chat conversations to train AI models. Your private discussions remain private.
- Local storage: Chat history is stored on your device only. You can delete it at any time from the App settings.
- Temporary server processing: AI providers may temporarily process messages to generate responses, but these are not retained beyond the active session and are not linked to your identity.
- Sensitive topics: Please avoid sharing highly sensitive personal information (medical, financial, legal details) in AI chat. The AI is for inspiration and reflection, not professional advice.
7. Push Notifications
Push notifications for daily kawaii predictions are optional. You can:
- Enable or disable them at any time in the App settings.
- Manage iOS-level notification permissions in your iPhone Settings → Notifications → Prediction Kawaii.
- Disabling notifications does not affect any other App functionality.

- Encryption at rest for any data stored on our servers.
- Access controls and authentication for our team members.
- Regular security audits and updates.
- Apple's iOS sandbox protections on the device side.
However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

16. Cookies and Similar Technologies (Website Only)
Our mobile App does not use cookies. For information about how our website kawaii-app.com uses cookies, please see our Cookie Policy.

Since the App primarily uses device-local storage and no account creation is required, "deleting your account" is as simple as uninstalling the App from your device. This will remove all locally stored data including saved predictions, chat history, and preferences. To delete any data we may hold on our servers (e.g., support communications), contact hello@kawaii-app.com.
18. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements, or other reasons. The "Last updated" date at the top of this policy indicates when it was last revised. Significant changes will be notified through the App or via email if you have provided one. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
19. Disclaimers

Do not use the App as a substitute for professional medical, legal, financial, psychological, or relationship counseling.
