This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you use the CocoTrain.AI, how we use it to make your learning experience better, and the steps we take to keep it safe. By using our app, you’re agreeing to the practices we describe here. Let’s dive in!
What Information Do We Collect?
We collect a few pieces of information to help the app work smoothly and provide you with personalized AI-powered learning support. Here’s what we gather:
Information You Share with Us:
Profile Info: When you sign up using Google Sign-In (via Google OAuth), we collect your Google user ID, full name, email address, and profile picture to create your account.
Learning Preferences: During onboarding, we ask for your grade level (e.g., Grade 9, College/University) and subjects (e.g., Maths, Science) to tailor the app’s AI responses to your needs.
Chat History: Any questions or messages you send in the Learn tab (e.g., text queries or images you upload for AI explanation) are stored so you can revisit them in the History tab.
Images: If you upload images (e.g., a photo of a math problem) via the Learn tab, we collect those images to process them with our AI.
Information We Collect Automatically:
Usage Data: We track basic usage info, like how often you use the app, which features you interact with (e.g., Learn tab, History tab), and timestamps of your interactions. This helps us improve the app.
Device Info: We collect details like your device type (e.g., Android), operating system version, and app version to ensure compatibility and troubleshoot issues.
Local Storage:
We use your device’s local storage (via AsyncStorage) to save some data, like your user ID, grade, subjects, and chat history, so the app can work offline and load faster next time.
How Do We Use Your Information?
We use the information we collect to make CocoTrain.AI a better learning tool for you. Here’s how:
Personalized Learning: Your grade, subjects, and chat history help our AI provide responses that match your academic level and learning goals. For example, if you’re in Grade 9 and studying Maths, the AI will tailor its explanations accordingly.
AI-Powered Explanations: When you send a query (text or image), we use it to generate context-specific answers via our AI engine. Uploaded images (e.g., a photo of a physics problem) are processed to provide detailed explanations.
Account Management: Your Google Sign-In data (user ID, name, email, profile picture) is used to create and manage your account, letting you sign in seamlessly and access your history across devices.
App Improvement: We analyze usage data (e.g., how often you use the Learn tab) to improve the app’s features, fix bugs, and make it more user-friendly.
Support: If you report a problem via the Profile tab, we use the information you provide (e.g., your message and user ID) to respond and resolve your issue.
How Do We Protect Your Information?
Your privacy matters to us, and we take steps to keep your data safe:
Secure Storage: Your data (like user ID, grade, subjects, chat history, and images) is stored securely on our servers at cocotrainai.pro. We use encryption to protect it during transmission and at rest.
Minimal Collection: We only collect what we need to make the app work for you. For example, we don’t track your location, browsing history, or anything unrelated to your learning experience.
Local Storage: Some data (like your user ID and chat history) is stored locally on your device using AsyncStorage. This data is only accessible to the app and isn’t shared with anyone else.
Access Control: We limit access to your data to a small team of trusted staff who need it to operate the app, troubleshoot issues, or respond to your support requests.
Do We Share Your Information?
We don’t sell your personal information to anyone—period. We only share your data in very specific cases:
With Google (for Sign-In): When you sign in with Google OAuth, we share your authentication request with Google to verify your identity and retrieve your user ID, name, email, and profile picture. Google’s privacy practices apply to this process (you can read more in their Privacy Policy).
Service Providers: We work with trusted partners (e.g., cloud hosting providers) to run the app’s servers and store your data. These partners are bound by strict confidentiality agreements and can only use your data to provide services for CocoTrain.AI.
Legal Requirements: If we’re required by law (e.g., a court order) or to protect the safety of our users, we may share your data to comply with legal processes.
Your Rights and Choices
You’re in control of your data, and we want to make sure you can exercise your rights:
Access Your Data: You can see most of your data directly in the app (e.g., your profile info in the Profile tab, chat history in the History tab).
Delete Your Data: If you want us to delete your data, you can sign out (via the Profile tab), which clears local data from your device. To fully delete your account and server-side data (e.g., chat history, images), email us at [email protected] with your user ID, and we’ll handle it within 30 days.
Opt-Out: You can stop data collection by uninstalling the app. Once uninstalled, we won’t collect any new data from you.
Request Corrections: If you notice any inaccuracies in your data (e.g., wrong grade or subjects), you can update them in the Profile tab. For other corrections, email us at [email protected].
What About Cookies or Tracking?
Good news: CocoTrain.AI doesn’t use cookies or third-party tracking tools (like analytics trackers). We only collect usage data directly related to your interactions with the app, and we anonymize it whenever possible to protect your privacy.
How Long Do We Keep Your Data?
We keep your data for as long as you use the app to provide a seamless experience (e.g., saving your chat history so you can revisit it). If you delete your account or uninstall the app, we’ll remove your server-side data (like chat history and images) within 30 days. Local data on your device (via AsyncStorage) is cleared when you sign out or uninstall the app.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We might update this Privacy Policy as we add new features or respond to legal requirements. If we make significant changes (e.g., changing how we share your data), we’ll notify you through the app or via email (if we have your address). The "Effective Date" at the top will always show when the policy was last updated, so you can check if anything’s changed.
