Peglo privacy policy

Peglo turns your pictures into bead patterns. Your photos and patterns stay on your phone. This page explains the little data the app sends to its own server, and why. The operator is the Peglo developer.

Usage statistics

To learn which features work and where people get stuck, the app sends anonymous usage events, for example "app opened", "picture chosen", "pattern converted", "PDF exported". Each event contains: the event name and time, a few fixed details about the event (such as a size, a count, a duration, or which setting was changed), the app version, the language setting, the Android version number, whether the device is a phone or tablet, a memory size range, a random install id and a random session id.

The install id is a random number made by the app. It is not linked to your name, account or Google advertising id, and it is reset when you reinstall the app. Peglo does not use the advertising id and contains no advertising or third-party analytics SDK.

Never sent: your photos, pattern pixels or colours, file names, and anything you type (except in a bug report you choose to send).

You can turn usage statistics off at any time in About → "Send usage statistics". Turning it off deletes the events waiting on the phone and stops sending.

Bug reports and feedback

When you send a report from the app, we receive: the text you wrote, the category, a screenshot of the app screen only if you chose to attach it, your e-mail address only if you typed it in, and the device model, Android version, language, app version and the app's own recent log lines (file paths and e-mail-like text are removed). If the app crashes, it sends the error details and the names of its last events the next time it starts, unless usage statistics are turned off.

Why

Only to find bugs and improve the app. The data is not used for advertising, not sold and not shared with third parties.

Storage and retention

Data is sent over an encrypted connection (HTTPS) to the Peglo server, which runs on Cloudflare. Your IP address is not stored; a salted one-way hash of it is used for a few minutes only to limit abuse. Raw usage events are deleted after 90 days; only daily totals (counts per day, event, app version and language) are kept. Bug reports, including screenshots and e-mail addresses, are deleted after 180 days.

Your choices

To have your data deleted, or for any question, write to eldora99120@gmail.com. Usage events carry no name or contact details, so we can only find them by the random install id; uninstalling the app or turning statistics off stops new events, and old ones are deleted automatically after 90 days.
