Privacy Policy for Mintin5 App

1

Introduction

We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This privacy policy explains how the Mintin5 app ("we," "us," "our," or "the App") handles information when you use our application on iOS devices.

Mintin5 is designed to help you calculate and understand intrinsic stock values. Your trust is paramount, and we've built this app with privacy as a core principle. We minimize data collection and ensure what we do collect stays under your control.

Information We Do Not Collect

Mintin5 is designed to minimize data collection. We specifically do not collect or request:

Personal Identifiers: Your name, email address, phone number, or any identifying information
Health Information: Medical data, health conditions, or fitness information
Location Data: GPS coordinates, IP-based location, or any geolocation information
Body Sensor Readings: Data from motion sensors, accelerometers, or health-tracking devices
Environmental Data: Information about your surroundings or ambient conditions
Messages, Emails & Communications: Your private messages, emails, or communication history
Photos & Videos: Camera roll contents, screenshots, or any visual media
Browsing History: Your web history, bookmarks, or internet activity

We request zero permissions that relate to personal data. Mintin5 functions completely without accessing your contacts, photos, location, calendar, or health data.

Information We Collect

Mintin5 collects minimal information to function effectively and help us improve the app. All collected information is stored locally on your device:

Stock Searches & Watchlists: The stock symbols you search for and add to your watchlist are stored locally on your device
Application Settings: Your preferences, layout choices, and configuration within the app
Usage & Performance Metrics: Anonymized data about how often you use features, app crashes, or performance issues (for improvement purposes)
Crash Logs: Technical information about app crashes to help us fix bugs and improve stability

Local-First Architecture: All collected information is stored locally on your device. Nothing is transmitted to our servers or external services without your explicit action (like fetching real-time stock data).

4

How We Use Information

We use the limited information collected for specific purposes:

Providing Real-Time Stock Information: When you search for a stock symbol, we fetch current market data from stock data providers (see Section 6)
Maintaining Your Watchlists: Your personalized watchlists are maintained on your device for convenient access
Enhancing App Performance: We analyze anonymized usage patterns to optimize features and improve user experience
Resolving Technical Issues: Crash logs help our development team identify and fix bugs quickly

5

Data Security

We implement multiple layers of security to protect your information:

Local Storage: All information is stored locally on your device using Apple's secure iOS frameworks and CoreData encryption
HTTPS Encryption: All communications between Mintin5 and third-party stock data providers use HTTPS/TLS encryption
No External Transfers: Your personal data is never transmitted to external servers or cloud services
No Third-Party Sharing: We never sell, share, or transfer your data to third parties for marketing or any other purpose

You Control Your Data: Your watchlists, searches, and preferences are entirely within your control. You can delete all stored data at any time by clearing the app's local storage.

6

Third-Party Services

Mintin5 integrates with limited third-party services to provide core functionality:

Stock Market Data Providers: To display real-time stock prices and financial data. These providers receive only the stock symbol you're searching for, not any personal information
Apple Analytics Tools: We use Apple's native analytics (part of the iOS App Store) to understand app usage patterns in an anonymized, privacy-respecting way

Minimal data is transmitted to third-party services. Stock price requests contain only the symbol you search for, and Apple's analytics are anonymized and aggregated.

Access Your Data: All your data is accessible within the app. Your watchlists and settings are visible to you at any time
