Audit Base Privacy Policy

Introduction

Welcome to Audit Base, developed by Studio Phoenix. Your privacy is important to us, and we are committed to protecting it. This Privacy Policy explains how the App handles your information.

Audit Base works entirely on your device. You do not need an account, and the App does not connect to our servers, so Studio Phoenix never receives the projects or photos you create.

1. Information We Collect

Studio Phoenix does not collect any personal information through Audit Base. Specifically:

• The App does not offer or require an account, login, or registration
• We do not collect usage data, device identifiers, or location data
• The App does not use analytics services, crash reporting tools, push notifications, or advertising SDKs

What you create in the App is stored only on your device:

• Projects, including titles, locations, due dates, references, comments and who the report is prepared for
• Issues, including titles, priorities, statuses, due dates, assignees and comments
• Photos you take or choose, and any annotations you add
• Signatures, with the auditor name and company you enter
• Your company logo, report styling and app settings

The App asks for camera and photo library access only so you can photograph issues, attach existing photos, and save annotated photos or reports to your photo library. It does not read the location stored in your photos.

2. How We Use Your Information

The App uses the data on your device only to run its features, such as building your PDF reports. Studio Phoenix does not receive this data, so we do not use it for anything else.

If you email us for support, we receive whatever you include, such as your email address, and use it only to respond to you.

3. Data Storage and Security

All App data is stored in the App's private storage on your device and is protected by your device's own security, such as your passcode and the encryption built into your operating system. Audit Base has no cloud backup or sync of its own.

Your phone's own backup (such as iCloud Backup or Google backup) may include App data under your Apple or Google account. Studio Phoenix cannot access those backups. If you lose or reset your device without a backup or export, we cannot recover your data.

When you export or share a PDF report, CSV file or photo, it goes wherever you choose to send it. From then on, the privacy terms of that recipient or service apply.

4. Third-Party Services

Audit Base does not use third-party analytics, crash reporting, push notification, or cloud hosting services. The only third parties involved are:

• App stores: The Apple App Store or Google Play handles downloading the App and the one-time Audit Base Pro purchase. Studio Phoenix never receives your payment details. The App checks your purchase with the store directly from your device
• Your device's share sheet: When you export or share, the app or service you pick receives the file

Each app store's handling of your data is governed by its own privacy policy.

5. Your Rights

Because your data stays on your device, you control it directly. You can:

• View and edit your projects and issues at any time in the App
• Export your data as CSV files or PDF reports
• Delete everything via Settings > Data Management > Delete All Data, which removes all projects, issues, photos and signatures from the App
• Turn off camera or photo access at any time in your device settings

Studio Phoenix holds no App data about you, so there is nothing for us to access, correct or delete on our side. If you have emailed us and want that correspondence deleted, contact us at the email below.

6. Data Retention

Your data stays on your device until you delete it or uninstall the App, which removes it from your device. Photos or reports you saved to your photo library, and files you exported, stay where you saved them. Studio Phoenix cannot recover deleted data.

7. Children's Privacy

Audit Base is not intended for children under 13 (or the applicable age of consent in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us immediately.

8. International Data Transfers

Audit Base does not send your data to any server, so it is not transferred to other countries. Studio Phoenix is based in New Zealand.

9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be reflected by updating the effective date at the top of this page. Your continued use of Audit Base after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
