Privacy Policy — SassaGold

Last updated: March 2026

Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains what data WHERE AM I ("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 the WHERE AM I team. You can contact us at any time at [email protected].

2. Data We Collect

WHERE AM I 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 the following data locally on your device only:

  • Language preference — your chosen language is saved on-device so the app remembers it between sessions.
  • Cached content — points of interest and other app data cached on your device for offline access.

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

Waitlist. If you join our pre-launch waitlist on this website, we collect the email address you provide solely to notify you when the app is released. This email is stored securely and is never used for marketing, sold, or shared with third parties. You may request removal at any time by emailing [email protected].

3. Legal Basis for Processing (GDPR)

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

  • Legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f)) — for on-device storage of language preferences and cached content, which is necessary to provide basic app functionality.
  • Consent (Art. 6(1)(a)) — for waitlist email collection, where you have actively submitted your address.

4. How We Use Data

The minimal data described above is used solely to provide core app functionality — specifically, remembering your language setting and enabling offline access to content. Waitlist email addresses are used only to send a single notification when the app launches. No data is ever used for advertising, profiling, or shared with any third party.

5. Data Retention

  • On-device data — retained until you clear the app's storage or uninstall the app.
  • Waitlist emails — retained until the app launches or until you request deletion, whichever comes first. After the launch notification is sent, email addresses are deleted.

6. Data Storage and International Transfers

All app data is stored locally on your device and never transmitted to our servers. Waitlist emails may be stored on infrastructure located in the European Economic Area (EEA) or in countries that the European Commission has determined provide an adequate level of data protection. Where transfers outside the EEA occur, we apply appropriate safeguards in accordance with GDPR Chapter V.

7. Cookies and Tracking

The WHERE AM I app does not use cookies or any equivalent tracking technologies. This website (sassagold.com) does not use analytics cookies, advertising cookies, or fingerprinting scripts. No third-party tracking code is loaded on any page.

8. Third-Party Services

The app does not integrate third-party analytics, advertising SDKs, or tracking services. This website loads fonts from Google Fonts; Google's servers may log your IP address when the font files are requested — see Google's Privacy Policy. The Google Play Store may collect data when you download or update the app, as governed by Google's Privacy Policy.

9. Children's Privacy

WHERE AM I 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.
  • Withdraw consent — where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw it at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.

Because we do not collect personal data through the app itself, the main area where these rights apply is the waitlist. To exercise any right, 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 app data is stored only on your device, the security of that data depends primarily on your device's own security. For waitlist emails, we use industry-standard access controls and encryption at rest and in transit.

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.
