Privacy Policy

Namenstag · iOS Edition · Effective 1 May 2026 · Last updated 1 May 2026

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how Nosa Studio ("we", "us", "our") handles personal data when you use the Namenstag mobile application ("the App") for iOS, distributed via the Apple App Store. We are based in Switzerland, and we comply with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for users in the European Economic Area as well as the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (revFADP) for users in Switzerland.

The App is designed with privacy in mind: no account is required, and the personal data read from your device stays on your device. We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties for marketing or advertising.

2. Data We Collect

2.1 Contact Data (read locally, stored on your device)

If you grant the contacts permission, the App reads the first name of each contact from your device's address book in order to match it against its built-in name day calendar. This processing happens entirely on your device. Contact data is not transmitted off your device and is not uploaded to any server.

The contacts permission is optional. You can use the App without granting it.
You can revoke the permission at any time in iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Contacts.
Revoking the permission removes the App's ability to access your contacts immediately.

2.2 In-App Purchase & Subscription Data

Namenstag offers optional premium subscriptions and a one-time lifetime purchase via Apple In-App Purchase (StoreKit). Subscription status is verified on-device via RevenueCat. We do not see or store your payment card details.

Current prices for all subscription options are displayed in the App before purchase and may vary by region. Subscriptions automatically renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage and cancel your subscription at any time in App Store → Account → Subscriptions. No refunds are provided for the unused portion of a subscription period.

2.3 Anonymous Usage Analytics

The App uses PostHog to collect anonymous usage analytics that help us understand which features are used and where users encounter issues. The data sent is anonymous and contains no personally identifying information (no names, no email addresses, no contact lists, no precise location). Examples of events we may collect:

Onboarding completion
Selected country / calendar
Anonymous feature interaction counters
Crash and error diagnostics

PostHog assigns a randomly generated identifier to each install. This identifier is reset when the App's data is cleared or the App is uninstalled.

3. How We Use Data

To provide the core feature: matching first names from your contacts against the name day calendar so the App can show you upcoming celebrations.
To verify purchases: processing App Store receipts via RevenueCat to enable premium features for paying users.
To improve the App: analyzing aggregated, anonymous usage patterns to fix bugs and prioritize features.

We do not use your data for advertising, profiling, or automated decision-making with legal effects. We do not sell your personal data.

4. Third-Party Services

4.1 Apple Inc.

Apple handles app distribution, in-app purchase processing, and subscription management via the App Store and StoreKit. Apple's processing of your payment and Apple ID account information is governed by Apple's Privacy Policy: apple.com/legal/privacy.

4.2 RevenueCat (RevenueCat Inc.)

RevenueCat is used for on-device receipt validation and subscription status management. RevenueCat receives anonymised purchase tokens from Apple to verify entitlements. RevenueCat's privacy policy is available at: revenuecat.com/privacy.

4.3 PostHog (PostHog Inc.)

PostHog is the analytics provider we use for anonymous product analytics and crash diagnostics. Our PostHog instance is configured to operate without collecting personally identifying information. PostHog's privacy policy is available at: posthog.com/privacy.

5. Data Retention

Contact data: kept on your device only for as long as the contacts permission is granted. Removed immediately when you revoke the permission, clear app data, or uninstall the App.
Subscription / purchase tokens: retained for as long as your subscription is active, and for up to 24 months thereafter for accounting and audit purposes.
Anonymous analytics: retained by PostHog for up to 12 months, then aggregated or deleted.

6. Your Rights (GDPR / revFADP)

If you are located in the EEA, the UK, or Switzerland, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

Right of access — to confirm whether we process your data and obtain a copy.
Right to rectification — to correct inaccurate data we hold about you.
Right to erasure ("right to be forgotten") — to request deletion of your data.
Right to restriction of processing — to limit how we process your data.
Right to data portability — to receive your data in a machine-readable format.
Right to object — to processing based on legitimate interests.
Right to withdraw consent — at any time, where processing is based on consent.
Right to lodge a complaint — with a supervisory authority. In Switzerland, the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC); in the EU, your local Data Protection Authority.

Because the App does not require an account and does not transmit identifying contact data off your device, the most direct way to exercise erasure is to uninstall the App or clear its data in iOS Settings. For other rights, or if you want a record of any analytics events associated with your install, contact us at the address below.

7. Children's Privacy

The App is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has used the App in a way that resulted in data being collected, please contact us so we can remove the relevant data.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be communicated through the App's release notes on the App Store and/or via an in-app notice. The "Last updated" date at the top of this document reflects the most recent revision.
