Privacy Policy — 1001 Excuses

Last updated: May 15, 2026

Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains what data 1001 Excuses ("the app") collects, how it is used, and the rights available to you. We are committed to processing only the minimum data necessary to provide a working product.

1. Data Controller

The data controller responsible for the app is SassaGold Studios. You can contact us at any time at [email protected].

2. Data We Collect

1001 Excuses is built on a principle of minimal data collection. We do not collect personal data through the app, do not track your identity, and do not share information with third parties.

The app stores and processes the following data locally on your device only:

  • App preferences — your chosen settings (such as favourite categories or display options) are saved on-device so the app remembers them between sessions.
  • Cached content — excuse lists and other app data may be cached on your device for offline access.

We do not collect names, email addresses, device identifiers, IP addresses, usage analytics, crash reports, or any other personally identifiable information through the app.

3. Legal Basis for Processing (GDPR)

Where the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 ("GDPR") applies, we rely on the following legal basis:

  • Legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f)) — for on-device storage of app preferences and cached content, which is necessary to provide basic app functionality.

4. How We Use Data

The minimal data described above is used solely to provide core app functionality. App preferences and cached content enable a consistent, offline-capable experience. No data is ever used for advertising or profiling, and no data is sold or shared with any third party for commercial purposes.

5. Data Retention

  • On-device data — retained until you clear the app's storage or uninstall the app.

6. Data Storage and International Transfers

All app data is stored locally on your device and is never transmitted to our servers or any third-party server. No international data transfers occur as a result of using this app.

7. Cookies and Tracking

The 1001 Excuses app does not use cookies or any equivalent tracking technologies. No third-party analytics, advertising, or fingerprinting code is included in the app.

8. Third-Party Services

The app does not integrate third-party analytics, advertising SDKs, or tracking services. The Google Play Store may collect data when you download or update the app, as governed by Google's Privacy Policy. The Apple App Store may similarly collect data, as governed by Apple's Privacy Policy.

9. Children's Privacy

1001 Excuses is not directed at children under the age of 13 (or 16 where required by local law). We do not knowingly collect any information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

10. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the following rights regarding your personal data:

  • Access — request a copy of any personal data we hold about you.
  • Rectification — ask us to correct inaccurate data.
  • Erasure ("right to be forgotten") — ask us to delete your data.
  • Restriction — ask us to restrict how we use your data.
  • Portability — receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format.
  • Objection — object to processing based on legitimate interests.

Because we do not collect personal data through the app, the above rights have limited practical application in the context of this app. To exercise any right or to ask a question, contact us at [email protected]. We will respond within 30 days.

California residents (CCPA/CPRA): We do not sell or share personal information as defined under the California Consumer Privacy Act. You have the right to know, delete, and opt out of the sale/sharing of your personal information. To exercise these rights, contact us at the address above.

11. Supervisory Authority

If you are located in the EEA and believe we have not handled your data in accordance with the GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection supervisory authority. A list of EEA supervisory authorities is available at edpb.europa.eu.

12. Security

We apply reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect any personal data we process. Since all app data is stored only on your device, the security of that data depends primarily on your device's own security features.

13. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be indicated by updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Continued use of the app after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
